pense. The rails used for such purpose were
old ones, borrowed from the Sacramento and
Placerville Railroad Company, the Directors
paying the freight for transporting them from
such places as they were used to the prison.
They are still the property of the company.
The Directors were also at the expense of
procuring a stationary engine with which to
haul the cars up an incline. This is still the
property of the State, and is nearly as good
as new.
After prosecuting the work with larger
force of men during the months of June and
July. and with the utmost efforts at economy,
the Board saw that it would be impossible to
complete, or anywhere near complete, the
prison with the appropriation made for the
purpose.
NOTIFICATIONS.
The Board. after full consultation with MIR.
Bennett, the Architect, Mr.. Duncan, the
Superintendent of Construction on the part
of the State, and Mr.. Johnston, the Di-
rectors' Foreman of stonework, determined
to modify very materially the character of
some portions of the work required by the
specifications of the Architect. The changes
determined on by the Board did not alter or
| in any way affect the plan of the building,
but went only to the way in which that por-
ton of the work to which they related should
be done. The plan of the building embraced
| 32S cells. OF these only about 100 were built.
| 1 he Architects specifications required that
| the partition walls between the cells
should be of dimension stone peen-ham-
mered. The first change ordered was that
the partition walls should be built of rubhle
rock instead of dressed dimension stone. The
| specifications of the architect required that
the floors OF the cells-both of the lower and
upper tiers-should be of dressed granite
slabs, extending the whole length of the cell.
| The second change ordered was, that instead
of granite slabs for floors in the lower tier of
cells composition stone should be used, and
instead of granite slabs for the floors in the
upper tier of cells quarter.inch plate iron,
properly stayed and braced. should be used.
! The specifications of the architect required
that the floor of the prisoners kitchen, din
| ing laundry, etc, should be Of dressed
granite slabs. The third change ordered was
that these floors should be made OF aspaltum,
properly prepared, instead of such gr mite
slabs. The specifications of the architect re-
quired that the rooms intended for the use of the
officers should be finished with cornices, CEN
ter-pieces, etc. The fourth change ordered was
| that such cornices, center-peces, etc, should
be dispensed with. 1t was believed by the
Board, at the time they ordered these
changes in the CHARACTER of the work, that
the prison could be completed with the APP
preparation already made for the purpose.
The contractor not having let the contract to
any one for doing the carpenter-work the
| Board advertised for bids for doing such
work and furnishing the material therefor.
| In response to advertisements bids were re-
ceived as follows:

The Board received and opened bids on No
yember 9TH for the plastering required by the
specifications, but did not award contract.
Upon making an estimate of the
PROBABLE COST
OF the stone work yet TO be done, of what
would become due on contracts already let,
and of other expenses which could not be ar
rived at, the Board became satisfied that such
contract, if made, would create liability, in
conjunction with those already created and
those which must be created, in excess of the
appropriation.
Alter the completion of the iron work, the
carpenter work and the plumbing, which are
now being done under contracts already let,
as hereinbefore stated, and for the payment
of all sums which will become due OF such con-
tracts, there will be an unexpended balance
in the appropriation already made There will
still remain unperformed on Jordan's con-
tract the plastering, the floors of certain cells
the floors of the corridors and the floors of the
kitchen, dining room, etc For the compile
ton of this latter work a further appropria-
ton will be required. The rights of the State
and the liabilities of the contractor and his
bondsmen, growing out of the failure of the
contractor to comply with the requirements
of his contract, are questions which we are
compelled to leave for judgment to our sue
cessors.

1t may be proper, at this point, TO remark
that the Board, in order to secure to the la
borers the payment of their wages from the
contractor. had taken the precaution to have
inserted in the contract stipulation that the
contractor should not be entitled TO receive
any payment on account of material fur
nished or work done on his contract till he
should furnish to the Directors satisfactory
receipts, vouchers or releases, showing that
he had paid to the mechanics and laborers
EMPLOYED by him all sums due them for labor
performed on bis contract. In pursuance of
this clause in the contract, the Board had, in
each instance, before paying the contractor
any money due him on his contract, required
him to bring receipts from the mechanics and
laborers employed by him, acknowledging
the receipt of their wages for the period in
which his claim against the State had &C.
crued. 1t seems, however, that many of
these persons were induced to sign such re-
ceipts before actually receiving their wages,
on the contractor giving them duebills for
the amount of the wages, supplemented
by his promise to pay such duebills as
soon as he should receive from the State the
amount due him, which he would be enabled
to do by presenting to the Board their re-
ceipts for their wages during the month in
which. his claim had accrued. But as the

Reptiles in Washington Territory.
In a letter to his father. from Big
Lake, Washington Territory, George
w. Leach gives his experience with rat
tlesnakes as follows:
=" I was out with the sheep about 10
o'clock in the forenoon, when man
named Alexander came along. We were
on a high bluff, covered with loose
shale. We saw grounding lyon know
the story about the boy and the
preacher we'll, we were out Of meat,
and | told Alexander to watch it while.
1 went down with the dog to where we.
saw it. / started, and the first thing I
knew wason D rattlesnake, and while we.
were killing that the hog hunted his
hole We started down over the loose
shale, but before we had got six yards
we heard another rattlesnaka. ! sent
the dog up among the rocRs, bu5 he did
aot go far before he tucked his tail be-
tween his legs, and came back. | knew
there YVES something up. there, so | got
a stick and went slowly along, poking
the stick in the rocks ahead of me. ]
got very near where thedog stopped, when
a RATHER stuck his head out from under
a rock, within two inches of my foot.
j were shoes, and before had time to
think, snakes were rafting all round
and under me. | stood in a den of rat
tlesnakes. My hair usually lays very
smooth on my head, but / think, just
then, il stood up like hog bristles, it
felt that way anyhow. turned around
jumped, and lit against the dog, and
we went rolling down the hill When
we got up, it was hard to tell which
was scared the worst, the dog or /. If
that jump was measured | think it
would run up to at least FIVE or six feet.

When / went to camp'F told my story,
and was laughed at. Next day jim
put on pair of gum-boots, No. lis,
and we went up to the bluffs. He went
up the hill while stood at the foot.
Pretty soon he began to strike right and
left. He said there were. snakes every
where, but he only killed thirty, as the
others hid in, the rocks where he
could not get at them. Since then, We.
