ils in the shops are made of cast iron, arc
,ncent in construction and not provided
with vent pipes or ventilation stacks
also that in some cases the flushing ar
are so imperfect that focal
matter gathers on the undcrside of the
closet seats to considerable depth. We
recommend that proper closets and urin-

that all modern sanitary requirements be
with in connection with the
same.
GUARD WALK AND WALL.
We lind tho prison wall. the upper part
Df which is built of brick more or less af-
fectcd by age and the clements and the
walk on and projecting over said wall,

condition as to render it unsafe. Owing |
to difficulties in obtaining satisfactory bids |
for the erection of a new iron walk and |
repairing of the wall, there has been
much delay in making these very much |
needed repairs; however, the iron walk |
is now on hand at the prison and the work
of repairing the wall and rebuilding the |
walk will be prosecuted with vigor as
soon as the weather conditions permit.
