Suit hj the Philadelphia Company igainst Chief Eigelow. TEE NEWS OP THE COUNT! COURTS County Controller Grier yesterday cer ti6ed to the Commissioners his warrant for 5500 as his salary for the months of May and June. This is at the rate of ?250 per month and the Controller is the first to accept the inevitahle under the decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Treasurer Bell. The -warrant of the Controller is headed "under acts of 18G1-1S64 per opinion if Supreme Court." The re sult of this opinion was a general reduction of the ( salaries of the county officers and the Controller drops from $4,000 per year to 3,000. Almost every officer will suffer a loss, and unless a reargument is obtained and a new ruling made they will have some money to pay back to the county for what they have drawn. t The Controller and Treasurer, by the decision, are thrown back to the special act of 1861 and its supplements, making a re duction iu the Controller's case of from 4,000 to 53,000, and the Treasurer of ?5,000 to $1,500. "Under the same ruling, that a general act does not repeal a special act by Implication, tbe other officers will go back from tbe salary acts of 1831 and 1891 to the special act ot 1371 and its supplements. These make tbe following changes, all being reductions except in tbe case or tbe Regis ter, who gets an increase: Sheriff McCleary, $6,500 to $3,000: District Attorney Burleigh, $6,000 to $4 000; Assistant District Attorney Hayirakor, $2 000 to tLStfr.

Tbo Commissioners ,ro back to the net of 1W2, reducing them from $2,500 to $2,000 each. A still greater loss is experienced by those who commenced a new term tbis year, as tber would have gotten more under the act or 1S3L The District Attorney and Prothon otary were the only ones being paid undent. None- of the officers have drawn any sal ary since the decision except the Controller, as stated, and all are hoping for a reargu ment and a new ruling. CHIEF BIGEL0W BESTBAINED.

The above is made from a photograph of a PITTSBURG TRAIN. A single package costing only 25 cents makes 5 gallons of Hires' Root Beer the most popular and healthful drink in the world. A carload contains from 32,000 to 36,000 packages the equivalent of 160,000 to 180,000 gallons. Such a trainload as the above is sufficient to make HALF A MILLION GALLONS OF HIRES1 ROOT BEER. So it goes. The sales so far this year are double those of last. Who says that Hires' Root Beer is not the most popular temperance drink of the day? The most important question is, has your family had its share? Give your folks some of the health and pleasure which other folks enjoy. HEALTH IS IJIPBOTID BT HIRF' root ninco beer It is beyond all dispute a Avonderful health-giving drink, and it is very easy for any one to understand Avhy this is so. The roots, herbs, barks and berries from which Hires' Rodt Beer is skillfully made are the identical things from which physicians get their most help ful remedies. For instance, do you believe that sarsaparilla is a valuable remedy? Well, Hires' Root Beer contains more sarsaparilla than many sarsaparillas.. The same is true as to other ingredients. Iu these facts we find the reason for such letters as these, which we are receiving daily. AX EXCELLENT TONIC. . hve ued yonr Root Beer for a year and have become healthy ty its use.

TEMPERANCE IS PROMOTED BY HIRES' btSS rR It is doing more, to advance practical temperance than many people realize. It is used and recommended by the most cautious and conservative temperance people. Some years ago an expert shoemaker thought he discovered a good deal of alcohol in Hires' Root Beer, and rose up to tell the public of his find. When called upon to prove it, he found he was mistaken, and took his "discovery" back. The most expert chemists in the country have repeatedly analyzed Hires' Root Beer, and the largest quantity of alcohol found was one fifth of one per cent This is about one-half as much as is contained in bread; so the most scrupulous abstainer can enjoy Hires' Root Beer himself, and recommend it to others as an agreeable and healthful substitute for the strong drink which he opposes. Here are two sample letters: BE HAS DAD A CHANCE TO DETERMINE. I was so nleased with vour Root Beer that I feel It mv dutv to recommend it to all wishing a harmless and refreshing drink. . . ..y . .
