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. Coroner McDow
ell, $2,500 to $2 000; Prothonotarr Bradley.
$6,500 to $8,000: Clerk of Courts McOunnijrle,
$4,500 to $3000: llceoraer Von rtonnhorst.
$5,000 to $4,000; He-lster Connnr, J,000 to
$5,100. 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.

Relief, in the great majority of the severest
cases of torturing and disfiguring humors,
eruptions and diseases, especially of infants
and children, is immediate, and a cure,
speedy, permanent, and economical, even
when the disease is complicated with scrofu
lous and hereditary taints. This is strong
language but every word is true.

Summer, when the pores open
freely, is the best time to perma
nently cure diseases of the Skin
and Scalp, with Loss of Hair.
More great cures are daily made
by the Cuticura Remedies
than by all other skin and blood
remedies combined. They afford
immediate relief in the most tor
turing and disfiguring eruptions,
humors, and diseases, and point
to a permanent and economical
(because most speedy) cure, when
the best physicians and all other
remedies fail.

We desire those who have suffered long
and hopelessly, and who have lost faith in
doctors and medicine, to begin small. Buy
a cake of Cutiotr a Soap. If thfe proves the
most effective skin purifier you have ever
used you may then buy a box of Cuticura,
the great skin cure. If it should prove more
than satisfactory, you may venture to buy a
bottle of Cuticura Resolvent and thus
perfect the cure. All we ask is a single trial.

People in every walk of life be.

HIRES' ROOT BEER
is selling by the carload and train load. 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

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.

A. PLEASANT JLND POSITIVE CUKE.
'I was Beyerely hurt In the mines at tbis place, and my appetite became poor and I was fast losing strength, although I was
taking appetliers from my family physician. I commenced taking your temperance Boot Beer and I will say It gave me an ap

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.
