Mr.. Hall said that Colonel Mendell and
himself had already digested what was
deemed proper plan, and that it would be
prepared in form and submitted.
The Board then took up the matter of its
financial q lily, and considered what means
would be at its disposal with which to prose
cute its work.
Mr.. Knox said he was prepared to give his
time to the work of the Board and his whole
energy to the carrying out of It's purposes.
Mr.. Parks said ne should devote his best
energies to it. Judge Searles said it should
be no secondary work with him. He would
at once arrange his private business so as to
give all the time and thought that was de-
manded to the important work committed to
the Commission.
The Board agreed that it was demanded of
If, and that it would proceed with its work
with the utmost possible CELEBRITY.

CoMMENDABLE PATIENCE.-The prisoners
undergoing sentence in the County Jail and
whenever eligible for service in the newly ar
ranged chain-attachment brigade, have eX-
hibited a remarkable degree of patience over
the delays which have attended the iuaugu-
ration of this matter, but they are at last off
the anxious seat and happy. The first de-
tachment of the new chain-gang made its
appearance yesterday, and was not the least
object of interest for the day. The delay in
getting the new institution started has been
| from want of ball and chain; but sufficient
to commence the work and trial trip with
detachment proved entirely successful. SThe
! alley between j and X, and from Third to
Seventh streets was Thoroughly cleaned out,
and the good work is to continue with an
! increased force, provided TIE result Of this
! pleasantly for Commuters OF small offenses
/ is not to leave a small number IN the County
/ Jail. The party yesterday consisted of six
/ Cinnamon, one Malay, and the mucf-iavOred
/ - Frisky Jimmy" who enjoyed the distinc-
| ton Of being the first white man in the busi-
ness. The gang was in charge Of Deputy
| Sheriff Henry Garrett and special officer
/ John Shelters. Rumor has it that the dis
1 tingui-hed J ack Dowd, wl.o could hardly wait
until the thing got into operation, will have
IN opportunity to set ont and sun himself in
the alley to-day Each member Of the coast
ing party is endowed during the time he is
out in society, with long chain attached
with one end to the ankle and the other to a
/ huge ball charm weighing 20 pounds.
