NEW COUNTY JAIL.
VIII be Handsome Building.
Modern In Detail.

Report of the Boone county board
or Commission which had in hand
the selection of a site for the new
Boone county jail here was made in
county court here Tuesday and an
nouncement made therein that the
site of the old jail should be used for
the new building. 1t is probable
that the same commission, which is
composed Of J. S, Holt, W. S.
Albright and John Roy will be APP
pointed by Judge Alexander to-day
to go ahead with the selection of
plans for the Jail Plans submitted
by Clyde A, FerrcI an architect of
Little Rock were Inspected Tuesday
by Judge Alexander and the site
commissioners, and it is thought the
commissioners will favor a building
along the lines embodied in Mr.
Ferrells drawings. These are for a
Jail and sherfi's residence combined,
the residence section being separated
from the Jail by heavy walls, En-
trance to residence and jail are indie,
pendent as are also the stairways
The upper floor Of the jail part has a
"bull run" so called for short term
prisoners and hold'ovcrs and
a woman's and minors section,
with bath, These plans provide for
perfect sanitation throughout, The
jailor's home includes six rooms and
a,bath. Total estimated cost of the
binding is $4,000. Judge Alex
ander and the commissioners are in
correspondence with officials Of
other counties where the jail and
residence are in the same building,
SO that an idea as to the success of
such an arrangement may be had
before any ueGnite steps are taken
toward the selection Of plans,
