Sheehy, who, after tak- ing the Civil Servjce examination, was on March 28, 1903, appointed inspector of school buildings at a salary of $135 by the Board of Public Works, yesterday filed a suit for a writ of mandate compelling the Board of Education to approve his salary de- mands for the months of December, 1902, and January, 1904.

Chief Hewitt of the Department of Elec- tricity submitted a list of five poles for which no permits had been issued. R AP i e Policemen Entitled to Pay. City Attorney Long advised the Po- lice ‘Commission vesterday that a po- lice officer is entitled to his pay when he is ill, whether his sickness is con- tracted in the performance of his du- ties or not. The opinion is interesting to city employes, as they feared the construction of the charter section providing that they shall be paid onl);i for actual service would cut off vaca. tion leaves. —_—_——— Honor for Vining. Andrew Jackson Vining, clerk in the information bureau of the post- office, was officlally notified yesterday that a commission had been issued to him as aid de camp with the rank of colonel on the staff of General John C.

She filed a suit for that purpose yesterday, alleging as cause of action that when she became his wife she was only 17 years of age, and did so without the consent of her parents or guardian. She charges that. though her husband well knew because of his birth here that a marriage to a minor was illegal, he kept the knowledge from her and by falsely representing to her that there was no obstacle to their union prevailed upon her to become his bride. Marguerite Dickinson Booker, who was married to Ernest F. Booker at Ju- neau, Alaska, in 1889, has sued for a divorce on the ground of deserticn. She charges that Booker left her three months after their marriage. Intem- perance is alleged in the complaint for divorce filed by Giuseppa Protomastro against Mary Protomastro, and in the action commenced by J. J. Taylor against O. M. Tayler desertion is charged. Attorney J. H. filed notice that James C. Dunphy in a Meredith yesterday he would represent the divorce pro- ceedings brought against him by Edith | Dunphy. The suit for divorce of Trinita C. Brewer against W. W. Brewer was partially heard by Judge Murasky terday and continued until the 18th. The plaintiff and defendant are New York stage people. Mrs. Brewer, be- fore leaving here for New York, insti- tuted the suit on the ground of deser- tion. Judge Hebbard granted Vicla Rodg- ers an interlocutory decree of divorce from Joseph J. Rodgers. The suit was instituted by Rodgers, but he did not prove his charge that she spent too much time running about with other men. Mrs. Rodgers, however, fur- nished ample evidence that Rodgers has deserted her, as she charged in her cross complaint. Divorces for desertion were also granted to Richard S. Northey from Anita Northey, Kate C. Bailey from John J. Bailey and A. B. Saunders from M. B. Saunders. —_——————— Mayor Means to Fight. The officials of the-Humane Society received word yesterday from Secre- tary George Keane that Mayor Schmitz would not approve the bond of Charles Holbrook as Poundmaster. The reasons given are that the office was not vacant and that the charter does not allow the appointment of a society to any position. The Humane Society people are undecided just what stepe to take to secure the place to which they have been formally ap- pointed by the Board of Supervisors. Irwin still claims to be Poundmaster. e — Involuntary Insolvency. Hooper & Jennings, Levi Strauss & Co. and the Dunham, Carrigan & Hay- den Company filed a petition yester- day in the United States District Court to declare the Coos Bay Mill and Lumber Company an involuntary bankrupt. It is alleged that that com- pany on January 30 last committed an act of insolvency by admitting in writing that it was unable to pay its debts. - FREE! FREE!

Jasper McDonald, ex-chairman of the Democratic County Committee and ex-Park Commissioner, swore to a complaint before Police Judge Caba- niss ' yesterday charging William J. Bell with threats against life. The warrant was handed to Detectives O'Dea and Mulecahy, who began a search for Bell. Bell was employed as a painter in Golden Gate Park and was discharged missioner. About four months ago Bell met McDonald on Market street, and after asking him if he could give him a job at painting some of his houses suddenly called McDonald vile names, and said he would meet him in the Western Addition some night and cut his throat from ear to ear. McDonald paid no attention to at Montgomery and Bush streets on Wednesday afternoon and Bell made the same threat he telephoned to Cap- tain Martin and was advised to swear out the warrant for Bell's arrest. Mc- Donald says he is afraid Bell will harm him. The painter believes Me- Donald was the cause of his discharge from the park. ——————— Palm Loses on Apveal.
