FREEHOLDERS.
Clark & Sons Get the Snake Hill
Bonds at a Small Pre-
MUM.

A brief meeting of the Board of Free
holders was held last night. but no busi-.
ness of much Importance was transacted.
When Clerk Boyd called the roll Messrs.
Nelson, Tierney, Perry and German were
marked absent. The Clerk next submit
ted the bids for the bonds issued for th 9
purchase Of about sixteen acres of land
at Snake Hill. There was but one pro-
posal and it came in this form:
GENTLEMEN-We herewith offer 1OO1(
and accrued interest for the $4,000 Snak e
Hill purchase bonds. This bid is for the
entire amount, not for any portion there
of. Yours respectfully.
WILLIAM CLARKE s. Sons.
A resolution was Immediately adopted
directing the Committee on Finance, the
Director-at-Large, the Clerk of the
Board and tue County Collector to de-
liver the bonds TO Clarke 81 Sons for the
amount of their bid. The usual number
of claims were ordered paid, and reso-
luton was adopted to force the New Jer-
sey Junction Railroad to erect gates at
the First street crossing, where collision
with wagon recently took place.
Freeholder Nelson offered a resolution
that was adopted, that the Director ap-
point "a committee of three to act with
himself to revise the list of supplies
needed by the county for the ensuing
year.
Judge McGrath was requested by the
Board TO furnish an opinion as to the
right of the Overseer of the Poor of this
city to send children suffering from
scrofula to the institutions at Snake Hill.
This done, the Board adjourned, and the
members crowded around Freeholder
Hennessey, who had just returned from
his wedding tour, to congratulate him.
and sadly remark that he looked very
thin.
COUNTY JAIL VISITATION.
Before the Board of Freeholders met
last night the Committee on Jail and
Court House visited the County Jail
The Committee directed the jailer not to
receive any more prisoners committed to
the penftentiary by Justices of the Peace
and Police Justices
1t has heretofore been the practice for
the prison van to take these prisoners to
the Jail to be maintained at the expense
of the county and the direct profit to
Jailer Birdsall, until the van from the
penitentiary removed them. This
arrangement was very beneficial to the
jsifer financially, for sometimes prisoners
are kept by him for several days and the
county pays the expense and receives no
benefit. If they are sent direct TO Snake
Hill they are put to work and the county,
and not Jaller birdsall, makes something
out of them. At present, SO the Com
mittee claimed, there are nine OF such
prisoners in the County Jail. Hereafter,
prisoners must be sent from the Court
direct to the penite entiary at Snake dill If
committed to that institution.
