To better understand the state
of affairs we give a brief discrip-
ton of the Jail. Inside large
room about twenty feetsquare, and
from six to eight feet from the
walls, stands a large cage 12xl3!
composed of steel bars anl plates.
The whole affair is built of case
hardened steel, which III ordinary
file can hardly scratch. 1t is as
secure as the ingenuity of man
can make, and is so arranged that
the jailor can always lock the
prisoners in their cells, from the
outside of the cage. before he opens
the door of the corridor; lie can
thus keep them behind the bars at
all times, and q boy can attend a
half a dozen desperate criminals
without fear of assault.
But the security of the prisoners
and convenience to the jailor is
offset by the contracted space, and
ofsanitary accommodations. Prac-
tically the only room for exercise is
the cage corridor, a space about
5x13 surrounded by latticed steel
bars, with about Il inch meshes.
The cells, 6x7, are surrounded ex.
cept the latticcd door and a small
space ut the back, with solid plates
aud are SO filled with hanging cots
and personal belongings of the
prisoners as to leave but room
enough to turn round III.
Since early, last fall there have
been in confinement from six to
thirteen persons, i'll the foregoing
described quarters, whose maxim.
i'll accommodation is for eight, all
of the nine now in confinement
having been there since October.
Two other ordinary plastered rooms
with barred windows and doors,
being occupied by insane patients
at Intervals. There are no sanitary
conyeniences except an ordinary
bucket.
We need to say no more to prove,
that. as human beings, we have no
right thus to put to the torture.
to the danger of their lives, men
whom the law "presumes to be
innocent until proven guilty. /"
Any citizen, no matter who, il
liable by combination of cir.
cumstances to have to spend
months in this Jail for want of
bail, or perhaps on a commitment
for an unbailable offence.
There is only one real remedy
for this abominable state of affairs,
either less prisoners, or more room.
While the former is not likely to
occur but rather increase, with the
population, the latter is therefore
a necessity.
A means of minor relief
though nearly as expensive, is to
hold court oftener. In sanitary
point of view. earth closets would
be a great improvement. We be.
l,eve Sheriff James and Tailor Hart
do all in their power to keep the
prisoners comfortable, but there
can be but little comfort for nine
men, who can see the sun but q
few hours III the early morning,
and whose walks are made in mar.
row lengths of less than thirteen
feet. We hope the grand jury
will make an especial report on
this subject at the ensuing term OF
cOnrf

wHITENESS AND DEAFNESS.
In the Feline Race One Trait Frequent
 Accompanies the Other.

Harrison Weir, president of the National Cat Club, England, says in his book, "Our Cats" that a white cat of the long or short haired breed is likely to be deaf. Should it have blue eyes, the fancy color, it is almost certain to be deaf.
 Mir. Weir, at a cat show, purchased a white cat, a beauty, loving and gentle, for the low prtce of two guineas. When he got it home the cat proved to be stone deaf"
 Then the trouble began. If shut out of the dining-room, its cry for admission could be heard all over the house, for, being deaf, it did not know the noise it made, though its owner often wished it could hear its own cry. When it called out as it sat on his lap, it called with ten cat power, and it's commanding voice caused it to be named the Colonel"
 One day friend saw the beauty" and admired it so much as to accept it as a gift, even after being told it was "stone deaf" A few days after Mir. Weir received note from the friend, offering to return the loud-voiced cat.
 Give it to any one you please, but don't return it to us," was the reply.
 The "Colonel' was given to a deaf old lady, and both were happy.

ARE CONTAGIOUS.

One of the cases in which the conclu-5
sions of scientific investigators have5
financial value is in that of consump-s
ton. 1t is now conceded that it is in a
degree contagious, and may infect the
atmosphere with its germs. The theory
of Dr.. KOCH, the eminent German sci
enlist, that the bacillus of the disease
has individuality, has been demon
strated in sufficient instances to remove
doubt. The approximations In consump-
ton, as in diphtheria and typhoid fever,
contain the germ that communicates
the disease. Much can be done to check
the spread of those diseases. often to
stamp them out, by treating them as
contagious. The financial feature is
being discovered in the resorts of the
consumptive. Figures are published
showing that in the localities in North
ern Italy that are sought by the con-
sumptives, in order to receive the bene-
fit of the Mediterranean atmosphere,
consumption is constantly increasing
among the resident population. Their
income is largely derived from these in
valid visitors, and they cannot afford to
discourage them from coming. The
health authorities of the entire district
had a conference, and the first i'm
pulse was to warn consumptives to keep
away; but that was seen to be ruinous
to business, and provision was made for
close inspection of the visitors and dis
infection. Still, the statements sent
abroad will operate to keep away other
classes of visitors. Southern California
has been the favorite resort of con-
sumptives in this country. Much of the
prosperity of its towns has been due to
this fact. People who do not have the
disease will not resort to regions where
Its victims are numerous if they are
to be thereby exposed to infection. If
that bacillus can be hunted down and
exterminated, it Will be great relief to
the world,

MAY BE LOST ARTS.

The Colossus Of Rhodes has, in the
ages past, done sonorous duty in the
orations of young collegians, and has
not yet outgrown its usefulness; but the
ruthless iconOclasts have been getting
in their work on it, and claim to have
made it wreck. EIFFEL. of the Paris
tower. and BARTHOLDI, of the great
statue, have conspired to Leu nothing
stand above their works. They have
made scientific measurements and COM
putations, and decide that this marvel
of the ancient world could have had DO
existence except in the Imagination.
If this devastation goes on, there will
not be anything left of the old things
that have relieved the monotony of an
cient fabrics. Some scientists demon
strated that the EIFFEL tower could not
be built. Modern science may not have
picked up all the methods of forgotten
times. There may be still lost arts.
