 COURTHOUSE BONDS.

A telegram received yesterday by Chairman Patrick Rose of the county board of supervisors conveyed the in formation that the national congress had approved the bill authorizing Gila county to issue $75,000 bonds for i'm. provements to the courthouse.
 The money will be used for the con struction of new jail, of which the county has been sadly in need since the completion of the present ;ounty seat of justice and punishment.
 The new jail, according to plans and negotiations which are to be brought to a close on the 90th of this month, will be. erected on the vacant lot between the courthouse and the Majestic the ater, in Oak street As soon as it was put into use, the county jail, under the courthouse, demonstrated to everybody who cared to take notice, that it was unfit for the detention of human beings, and also that it would be inhuman to ask officials to work over such jail.
 But the approval by congress of the bond issue assures the building of a new fail in the near future and an early relief, not only to the prisoners of the county, but to the people working in the courthouse offices, over them
