Coming; Jail Plans

A special meeting of the Board of
County Supervisors has been called
for tomorrow to meet with John r..
Haynes of the State Commission of
Charities and Corrections, to go over
the plans for the new Imperial County
Jail.
The plans for a $4,000 Jail We're
drawn by Sounty Surveyor Perry
some time ago and sent to the state
board for their approval, this being
necessary under the law. At that time
several changes were suggested, but
owing to a misunderstanding of the
plans by member of the board, who
later resigned, these changes were not
made and the matter was held up un-
til Mr. Haynes, the newly-elected
member, was installed, with the con-
ference here tomorrow as result.

ago Genere M. Simpson, superintend-
ent of the Oregon state game farm,
sent to George Brown at NanaimO,
B. c., the sum of $3.50 for prize Eng
lish setter. The dog failed to arrive
and Simpson Investigated. What he
learned was this:
Gas pigs is pigs so dogs is dogs"
and when Gypsy Girl, the prize set
ter reached Seattle, the immigration
or customs authorities-the message
failed to state which-stopped all
progress of the setter toward the
destination.
The trouble lay in the fact that
shortly after being accepted under
the manifest as zone dog in good
condition." and passed over the line,
Gypsy Girl became the mother of six
puppies and as seven dogs were not
one dog, the officers did not know
what to do.
Simpson is4 still keeping the wires

the express companies have not yet
decided whether to ship the dogs on
or return them as undesirable aliens.
