TO INCREASE OWN PAY

There has been a very strong and persistent sort on the part of large majority of the house membership to Increase their own salary, but 1t has failed so far. and all such, bills are be- lieved to have been sent to the junk pile for keeps. Under the constitution salaries cannot be increased during present terms. The law fixes the stipend for members of the legislature at $500 for regular sessions and s5 per day for special sessions, and it is claimed by a good many otherwise well meaning members that they cannot live in Jack son during the session on that amount of ready cash As a matter of co,Yrse they are mistaken abont that. They can live handsomelv on s100 ner month and eoodlv number are getting along on ss0 to SIS per month. SO that they will leave Jackson with. about $500 tc their credit That there are members who spend douhle their salary goes without saving. but thev do not have to srAnd that. nor anvthinp like it.

At present Miss Bara is touring

appeared in New York last spring.
Her bookings at present extend to

that she may finish the season in

The simple outlines of Miss Bara's
career have been SO luridly fiIled
in by the Jealous publicity agents
OF the motion picture companies
that the public had for q long time
come to regard her as something OF
a freak. In justice to Miss Bars
II must be said that she was as
much amazed as the public at some
OF the stories that were printed
about her.
Miss Bara came under the man

first in Boston. then in Pittsburgh
and Washington. An engagement Of
six weeks at the Shubert Theater,

the critics has been a mixed one,
