TIE BRUNSWICK Dan v Nrv.,s'

the building took a bond to indem-
Nifty themselves against defects in
the heating. The county commission
ers will no doubt look out for this.
With the exception of a small leak
in the gutter and a few minor re
pairs the physical condition OF the
building is very good. We are i'm
pressed, however with the filthy con-
dition prevailing throughout the jail,
and even into the yard surroundings.
In the yard there are old rusty tin
cans, parts Of bedding, parts of old
clothes, weeds and everything to
make a flthy yard. In the Jail and
corridors filth prevails. The floors OF
! the corridors are dirty; some of the
cells have an accumulation of old
| cIotnes old bedding mixed with old
| food, and the general condition is
disgraceful from sanitary stand
/ point The toilets also seem to be
receiving no attention, and the whole
building has an appearance Of abs
lutte neglect The prisoners bedding
also seems to be very badly kept,
and seems to have no attention what
ever. We would suggest that the
proper officials see that this building
is cleaned and kept so. We under
stand. however, that at the time your
committee examined the jail the
iailor was short his usual help and
this&nay have accounted for the con-
GiHtn as found.
We also recommend that a suita-
Bile fence be built around the jail
grounds, and that shed immediately
under the condemned cell be remov-
ed, and that wire netting be put
over the windows of the condemned
cells, same as is over the windows
on lower floor.
Pubic Roads.
The road leading from T~uns - Pc
to Old Sterling, from Old erli~~
Brookman, from Brookm@n t. THO
amden county line; the road from
Anguilla to Blounts Crossing; tha
road from Old Sterling to Clay Hole;
the road frcm Sterling to Evelyn;
from Brunswick to Dents plantation;
the road on ST. Simon from pi9r to
fork of road leading to village, have
been examined by your committee on
public reads and found, as whole,
to be in good condition.
We recommend the road from Ster-
ling to Evelyn be worked also the
Cartwright road from between Mr..
Dents and MI Beasley's.
We find the shell roads in very
good condition and recommend the
extension of these shell roads.
We also find the BRIDGES Of the
county in good condition.

Fish and Game.
1t is a regrettable fact that both
fish and game supplies are being rap
idly deplted in this county. 1t il
also true that our game and song
birds are rapidly disappearing, This
of affairs is due to more
than one cause; in the first place
there is no arrangement made to en-
