The control of the board st pased from the adherents of one po- litical party to those of another, and it was evi- dently thought desirable to give certain places of employment to followers of the dominent taction. POLITICAL WHEEL TURNS. As was stated by the president of the board one of the deposed officials, there was a urn of the political wheel” This turn was the condroling reason for the changes, even though the members of the board made at the same time have felt that they were promoting efficiency and economy in the managemnt of the department. The foregoing_discussion proceeds upon the ground that the Board of Health had not power %o fill places occupied by civil service empioyes except by means of requisition upon the Board of Civil Service Commissioners for names of eligibles from the classified list. For the de- t ermination of this question, it is immaterial whether or mot the Incumbents were properly removed. It s not intended therefore in this opinion to decide the question, which was quite -fully argued, whether or not the persons displaced held at the pleasure of the appoint- ing power pursuant to article 20, section 16 ution. Whether they did or not, was incumbent upon the Board of Health in g their piaces to make the appointments in the manner laid down in the clvil service article of the charter, For the foregoing reasons the preliminary tnjunction asked for will issue upon the plain- tff filing an undertaking in the sum of $1000 and the demurrer will be overruled with leave to answer within ten days. As all of the evidence in the case was taken upon the hearing of the demurrer interposed by the defendants, the right given the defendants by the court to an- swer the complaint is a negative one, for the case now stands decided upon. its{ merits.

He was 89 years of age. His wife said to-day that he died of | griet, broken-hearted because of the pub- | Heity which constantly kept his record | alive. The death of Jimmy Hope closes & ca- | reer that has had few equals in the crim~ inal history of this country. The Pinker- | ton’ Agency’s library of crime is repiete with data of Hope, showing him to have | been one of the most daring as well as pskiliful bank robbers in America. Hs op- erated throughout the United States for | twenty-five years and for a time was | wanted In two dozen States for various | oftenses. ; Hope was born in Philadelphia and en- tered upon his criminal career at an early age. Ome of his early expioits was the cracking of the safe of the FPlymouth Bank in Philadelphia. Although he was not arrested for the crime, the suspicion was strong against him.. Later he robbed the bank at Peoria, Ill, and was sen- tenced to five years’ imprisonment, but escaped after two years’ service. A few months later Hope and four desperats | companions robbed a bank at Wilming- | tori, Del., after capturing the cashier and his entire family. For this crime he re- ceived forty lashes and was sentenced to ten years in prison, but he and his com- | panions had barely entered upon thelr term of service before they escaped. From~ that time on Hope was continually want- ed for similar crimes. He was frequently captured and sentenced, but as frequent- 1y escaped from the prisons. In 1874 Hope and a band of the most no- torious desperadoes in this country, robbed the Manhkattan Bank of New York and got away with $2,747,770. A large porgion of the plunder was in registered securi- ties. Hope's son, John, had a hand in this affair. Again the veteran thief went to prison, but made his escape. and the next heard from him was when he was captured in this city while attempting to rob the Sather Bank on Montgomery street. He was sentenced to ten years in San Quentin. He was released, after serving seven years and six months, on November 16, 1556 > Officers were awaiting to take hims back to New York to serve out an unexpired, term in Sing Sing. but he bitterly fought * extradition for six months, when he fically was defeated in his legal battle and reluctantly started East with his captors.

Some years ago Hope, after getting free from the clutches of the law, down with his family in New York and little had been since heard of him until the recent discovery of the missing securi- ties of the Manhattan Bank.
