The Health Board struggled yeslerday over the appointment sanitary inspector. of retaining Dr. H. L. Curtis in the posi- tion, but the Civil Service Commission, through an error in the marking of Cur- tis’ examination papers, placed him sec- ond on the eligible list. The error re- sulted in F. C. Muller being placed num- ber one. As the rule of the commission provides that only one name shall be cer- tified for appointment, this would Insure Muller’s appointment. The Civil Service Commission ‘acknowl- edged that the error arose from the xaminers not having seen all Curtis’ answer to a question and that vas really entitled to 10 credits Instead of 1% credits for it. The commission has since certified the names of Muller and Curtis, but the former protested At the meeting against the board appointing any but the first on the eligible list according to the rule laid down by the commission. The board postponed action for one week. The boardyreferred to the City Attorney the disappréval of the appointment of R. O. Burnett as assistant pharmacist at the City and County Hospital on the grouna that he is not a registered pharmacist. The owners of premises at 637, 639 and 641 Pacific street,.504, 506 and 508 Brynn(l streets and 829 Pacific street were ordered to show cause why these premises should not be vacated as being unsanitary.

Claims He 'Gives Only Half the Sum Which Was Adjudged Her. Theresa L. Edwards of, 3431 Sacramento street, who was divorced from Willlam Edwards of the firm of Edwards & Co. of 304 Montgomery street in November, 1895, petitioned the Buperior Court yesterday for an order directing Edwards to appear and show cause why he should not pay her $50 a month alimony, as he was di- rected to do when she secured her di- vorce. Mrs. Edwards in an affidavit accompa- nying' the petition claims that her former husband is well able to comply Wwith the court order. She says he lives in affluent circumstances at 1477 Gough street, and spends a great deal of money traveling | about the State with the various societies | to which he belongs. She says that she | has lived upon $25 a month since her di- | vorce, having consented to accept that | sum after Edwards had stated to her \tnat he was In financial difficulties. She | dia so, she says, rather than embarrass \ him and with tne hope that his business | would be benefited by the reduction of his expenses. Now, she says, she is in deli- cate health and badly in meed of funds to purchase delicacles prescribed by her | physician, ! There is on file at the County Clerk's office a divorce complaint in which Henry Wyman Page Colson alleges that peace of mind has been destroyed because of his wife's fondness for cats. The cats are not of the prize-winning varlety, ac- | cording to Colson, but of the kind that | roam back yards in the dead of night and | disturb the slumbers of man and lead him to indulge in the extravagant habit of hurling $12 boots through plate-glass windows in the hope of either ending the existence of his ‘‘Thomasship” or secur- ing qulet. Colson's life, if his complaint be true, has been a harrowing ome. He alleges that for fourteen yvears after his marriage In Massachusetts he and his | wite, Susan Loring Colson, lived a life of happiness. In 1892 he alleges, his wife de- | veloped a fondness for cats, and peace and happiness fled. There were never less than half a hun- dred felines under his wife's care, al- leges Colson. Finally. he says, their | friends took notice of the cal and thereupon came a falling off in. thelr list of callers. plaintiff, he alleges, that he became a nervous and physical wreck. He stood it until a year ago, he alleges, when he de- | termined to leave his wife in jpossession of their home and her cats. He settled upon her $100 a month and came West, commencing his action for divorce just one year after he left Mrs. Colson’'s fondness for cats is not the only cause of their unhappiness. Col- son alleges that she is insanely jealous of him. She once broke up a whist game, he alleges, claiming that it was an im- | moral pastime. He says that when she was escorting him home after breaking | forced her remarks with sundry kicks and | scratches, finishing her charges by stab- bing him with a hatpin. | The Colsons are an aged couple. The | plaintiff is the proprietor of a hotel at Summervlllm Mass. His wife since he left her has resided at 115 Dale street, Boston. Interlocutory decrees of divorce were | granted to Felix Richards from Beatrice M. Richards for desertion, Boydstun from Jesse G. Boydstun for neglect and Elizabeth Brough from N. F. Brough for desertion. Sults for divorce were flled by John Kans against Mary E.
