MOSES LEOPOLD SITS ON THRONE AS CITY’S CHIEF.

Moses L. Leopold ascended the throne as the city’s chief executive Tuesday afternoon, when Mayor C. G. Spitler turned over the mayoralty reins to him on leaving the city for Detroit, Mich., with his wife to greet their son, Lieutenant Spitler, who has just arrived from overseas and who, with the remainder of his division, will be tendered a reception by the citizens of Detroit in the near future. Mir. Leopold becomes the city’s head by virtue of his position as city attorney and expects to wear the crown with as much ease and grace as the real owner.
