the proprietor is showing the head
waiter his family kodak album.
The head walters in the magazines

because they have been seen to smile
and bow. If a real head waiter ever

HOUSE FAILS To
BOOST PAY FOR
CIRCUIT JUDGES

In spite of Representative Lorrin
Andrews plea the house today failed
to pass On third reading the bin pro-
yiding that the territorial government
pay to circuit judges $1,000 year in
addition to the 1856 % they are now
getting each month from Uncle Sam.
'1f congress at any time increases
the pay of the judges" said Represen-
tatiFe Andrews, then this additional
pay by the territory, as provided in the
bill, ceases. The judges are the only
officers that the legislature has made
no attempt to look after in view of
the present high cost of living"
The vote which failed to pass the
hill on third reading was IL to IA. For
the present the measure lies in the
house morgue, but will have to be
brought up again almost Immediately
to prevent its permanent demise.
