Our Unsanitary Jail.

Howard county is extremely liable
to be the defendant in damage suit
ere long unless some immediate move
is made to build new jail at once.
For the past few mo nths from seven
to nine prisnoners have been confined
In the jail and all have been more or
less unwell owing to their unsanitary
surroundings, and we understand that
one OF them has made complaint to
the State Board of Health, who have
ordered an investigation of the Jail by
the local board of health, which has
been made, and we understand that
the board of health, together with
the County Attorney and County
Clerk, will make report to Judge
Hobson this week on the unsanitary
condition Of the Jail. 1t seems that
this action is required by law, the re-
port to be made semi-annually, but so
lar has never been done.
Several persons interested in the
building of jail, some OF them build
ing contractors, have estimated on
building to be built of stone, about
4Ox6o, two stories in hight, with ce-
ment floors and iron roof containing
ample corridor and four large cells,
with ample accommodation for 16 in
mates, and declare that such build
ing can be erected for $4,000. In our
opinion the Board of Supervisors
should investigate the cost of suita-
BILE building, and If it can be brought
within the $4,000 limit of expenditure
by law, the Board should at
once begin the erection of safe and
sanitary Jail before the county is
made the victim of a damage suit
which migh5 cost 1T twice the price
of new jail.

The Class Play.

Last Thursday evening, the opera
house was completely packed to wit
ness the performance of 1.-THE Mer-
chant Of Venice Up-to-Date, by the
class Of 1904, the reserved seat sale
for this enter rtainment being the larg-
est in the history of the house.
The manner in which each part
was taken was marvellous, considering
the fact that, without an exception,
every performer was without any pre-
vious experience in that line what:
evet. Not once was the service of a
prompter needed, and the whole thing
moved with life and action gener-
ally totally lacking in amateur pro-
ductions. Great credit is due to those
who trained them for the evenings
entertainment.
The play itself was an adoption

the modern athletic idea, and with
its origi nal lines paraphrased into

costumes were used and every rything
in the way Of stage dressing was ele-
CANT and adequate.
The total receipts were Sl74.90
which will pay all expenses and leave
a small balance for the class.
