theater had its stock company, and among
the members were men and women who
have since become ilustTiouS as stars. In
stead of playing through an entire season,
as at present, in one role, they were COM
PEELED by the exigencies of their positions
to appear in different castles quite frequently,

Supervisors in relation to county printing.
Suffers Supervisors some time ago, desig-
mated the Suffer Independent as the official
paper of that county. A majority of the

printing to the Suffer Farmer. That jour
nal presented its bill to-day and the board
refused its payment, holding the claim was
illegal. The Supervisors believe they have
q right to say where the printing shall be
done and are willing to stand a suit to settle

Farmer, would make no statement without
the authority Of the Board of Directors of
the paper. But it is thought suit will be
