Mr. George Ford, who was door-
koeper at Burnell’s Museum during
the existence of that institution.?
Mr. Bruce, it is alleged promised to
pay all the expenses incurred by
Ford in search for the huty, and
gave him $100 to start on. M r.F ord

mission, put in a bill for $170, but
the expeciai t bridegroom refused to
pay the little balance of $70. Since
that time Ford, it is s^iclj has fre
quently endeavored to collect the
amount but without success. F ri
day, Alderman McMasters investiga
ted tho matter, as tho embassador ’
had entered a suit against Bruoe for i
$70. The defendant, it is alleged,,*
did not deny F ord ’s statement and

amount claimed
