This is what really happens: The

A pair OF quartz filters constitute

Suit to Restore
Salary Before Court


The case OF Freudenberger against
Controller Cole came up before the
Supreme court today. 1t is a man
damus proceedings to compel the
controller to aidit the salary of Mr..
Freudenperger for his services rs
engineer to the Railroad and Public
Service commissions.
The last session of the legislature
passed a measure TO reduce the sal
airy, and the action is an attack on
the constitutionality of the change.
The act creating the position pro-
vides hat the engineer shall be paid
a salary Of $500 per month, and in
attempting to reduce the compensa-
ton the lawmakers did not amend
the section OF the original law but
passed another section fixing the re-
Enumeration at a less amount. The
hitch is that there is only one way
to amend a law and that is by replac.
ing the part desired to be amended
which in this case it is claimed wa:
not done. The case was submitted
on briefs.

The fate Bret Harte's story,
"M'Liss," is the basis of a five-part
production, with Howard Estabrook
playing the part Of Gray, the school
master, with whom the little girl.

convincing pen pictures of the de-
serted claim, Smiths Pocket; the
people who live there; the school
