The Moneta five, appearing at
the Brinkman Family Theater this

the highest possible praise for their
clever act.

alone well worth the price of adj
mission. Nat Boswell has an ex-
cellent bass voice and his singing

called forth round after round of
applause from a large and delighted
audience last evening. Ed WILDER,
also one Of the famous quint, showed
himself to be a fine violinist and is
without question the king Of them
all on the banjo.
This small company of expert
actors will appear each evening
this week at the Bri.1kman Family
Theater and you will certainly miss
the opportunity Of aslifetime if you
fail to see them.
The admission charges this week
will be IS and Is cents as The

Without reference to the salary here

should be an increase in this in
stance of the amount fixed by the
board, though I do not think the
maximum sum permitted by the
statute should be adopted as COM
pensation in this case. After care
fully considering the salaries paid
the several county attorneys through
out this judicial district, and some
other districts, I regard the sum
fixed in the foregoing order fair CON-
pensation for the services the county

will be required to render during
his term of Office.
