The Minneapolis Tribune Of
July 7th says that Secretary Hart
gives the following report concern
ing the condition" of the county in
stitutions OF Mobiles and Cotton
wood cnunties:
HE found the Jail facilities of
Cottonwood county very poor.
There are seven prisoners. part of
whom were confined in hall, and
the others in the village calaboose.
The Sheriff marched the men
around the streets in the daytime,
because the quarters were so bad,
but the grand stopped that. In
Mobiles county the jail has one cell,
63x9 feet, and there have been az
high as nine persons confined at
one time. The Secretary says the
Cottonwood county poor house,
was built against the advice of the
board of corrections and charities
is an elephant on the county's
hands. They have but four in
mates, while the capacity is for
twenty persons. First they hired
a man to run it, but have now
rented it for 800, which is 2 per
cent. on the money invested, and
pay So a week for the board Of
each paupor.

We hear of grass hoppers ap-
pearing at several points, chiefly in
North Dakota, but measures for
their destruction have been so
promptly taken that it is believed
no great harm will result. The
latest word is from Larimore, N.
ID. A special dispatch to the Min
neapolis Tribune says: "Grass-
hoppers of the most destructive
variety are around on Inkster,
Conway, Park river, Langdon, and
now they are reported at Cando
and Church's Ferry, in small num-
bers at each place, and have done
little damage yet, but are increas-
ing rapidly. Prof. Waldron, of the
state agricultural college, is super
intending the destruction of the
pests. About thirty pans for coal
tar are in operation and every other
available method is being used to
exterminate them. It is believed
the grasshoppers will he practical
ly destroyed before they can do
much harm"
