At a late* hour, however, an objection was heard to any raise of pay for the schcMil sti|>erintendrnt's offiice and the delegation decided to withdraw the measure providing for it, which con tained also the provision for raising the county judge’s pay flMMI per annum. ••Jerry ihe tramp.” The jieople of our town will have the privilege of seeing “Jerry The Tramp” at the U.
