Historic Caves Photographed in "The AmericanO."

The La Jolla caves, famed in many weird tales of the wild South west, formed picturesque settings for several scenes in "The Ameri- cano," the new TriangleFine Arts production in which Douglas Fair banks is starred, to be the next feature at the Coliseum.

 The caves are said to have been the rendezvous of notorious Span ish brigand of the early California days. They are visited by thous- ands of tourists annually.

FULL TEXT OF THE sGRAND JURY REPORT ''
 E FOR PRESENT TERM

The full grand jury report handed to Judge Robert w. Jennings yes terday, is as follows:
 We, the grand jurors summoned to attend this special September 1918 term of the above-entitled court, having finished our work and per formed all the duties required of us and concluded all business brought before us, beg leave to re- port as follows:
 We have been in sesssion 16 days, and have acted on 26 cases, 20 of which were original investigations, and have found "A true bills and have considered several other mat ters of great importance. We have examined GA witnesses and. used two interpreters.
 We have examined all the depart ments of the United States court house and find the jail in most de plorable condition, due to the defect i've plumbing and heating We find that the plumbing in all departments of tho court house is in very bad condition and needs a complete oVerh aulirc. We recommend that all the wsils in the jail to height Of six feet from the floor be re- piaSie~ed with washable material injorder that the same may be kept clean and sanitary; that all plumb ing and heating apparatus. in the United States court house and jail be entirely overhauled. We believe that it is impossible to keep the jail clean and sanitary with the present condition of plumbing.
 We wish to call attention to the lack of accommodations for the care of the insane, while awaiting hear ing and transportation to the asylum There is absolutely no place in Ju- neau or any accommodations for this purpose except the crowded jail; !; for the violent there are no accom- modations whatever and conditions are deplorable. We therefore rec lommend that separate building properly equipped be erected on the present reserve for the temporary detention of insane persons and, in the meantime padded cell be pro- yided in some way for that purpose
 We have made an extensive inves- tigation of the fisheries in South. eastern Alaska and find strong evi- fence that the fish are being depict cd. We recommend that this be brought to the attention of the prop. ar authorities, with view to clos ing up stream fishing in Southeastern Alaska.
