IMPORTANT DECISION.

The Board of County Commission
ers decided at a recent meeting that
the Magistrates being salaried officers
are not entitled to any pay for any
criminal work, in addition to their
regular salary. The board reached
this decision unon- n-oseai keaa.s'
-a-re-rof the holding of an inquest.
There were several points of law made
in said protest, among which was
that as Magistrate was a salaried
officer he had no legal right to charge
the county for any criminal work,
that is, any work in which the State
is a party; therefore a Magistrate
could not collect All inquest account
j. A. Sawyer, Esq, attorney for the
board, prepared a very elaborate
opinion on the subject and sustained
all the grounds included in the pro-
test. 1t is therefore now established
that the Coroner and Deputy Coro.
ner are the only officers who can col
lect an inquest account.

This is a glittering season. Summer dress goods continue to be woven with tinsel threads and very pretty are the effects thus obtained. In the dark diaphanous materials the gleaming suggestive tinseI is most effective. The newest gauge used, either as a trim- ming or for entire evening gowns, comes traced in swirling design in gold and silver threads, and the latest mousseline de soie is embroidered with glittering threads. To the English is due the praise for the luminous pow der which when applied to fabrics gives them the brilliant, scintillating coloring of the opal by day and ren. ders them phosphorescent by night.

Both have the worlds reward-the idler his pleasure, the worker his success, and both have also the spiritual punishment-loss Of the true use of life, and the inward toylessness which darkens their de- clining years.--Rev.
