also that the mattresses to the cell

times year. and the janitor be
made to keep the surroundings we'll

We next visited the Superintendent
of Public Instructions office and find
the books and general condition of
this office SO far as we could inves-
tigate in splendid condition.
We next visited the County Clerks
office and found Clerk Johnson's Of
flee in excellent condition and the
County records in good shape and
in safe hands.
We next visited the County Judges
office and found the records and
books in very good condition, how
ever, portion of the basement which
is a part of the County Judges office
this we find in an unsanitary order
and we would recommend some at
tention to this at once.
We as body wish to call your
Honor's attention to the fact that
this Grand Jury has only consumed
three days to complete the work oil
the Jury and is possibly the smallest
amount Of Criminal business to come
before the Grand Jury in several
years. which indicates the fact that
crime is on considerable decrease
in this county, which fact speaks well
for the Sheriff's office, and court as
whole.
We beg leave to return our thanks
to our States Attorney, Hon. John w
Burton, for the courteous manner in
which he has attended our body and
the assistance he has rendered us
during our session. And to our Hon
Judge John S. Edwards, for the cour
tesies shown us during our session.

out IN two flights: twelve machines.

light, the tail end of the show. Before
we started, the sky was full of big
black clouds, which we struck at
about 5000 feet.
After VIC had been flying for about
half an hour. ! saw that the first
flight had broken up; some were div
ing, some were climbing and there
seemed TO DO more planes about. Then
Il dawncd upon me that it vas a
fight.
"By that time was nearly up TO it.
There was a burst of flames ahead
and | saw a camel turn on Il side and

lut let me. So jammed my uusc
down. pressed my controls. and pop.

lraccrs strcakins after The rcd devil.
"Thcn | heard something from an
other quarter: Pop, pop pop. | saw

triplano was diving down ON me.
put my head down, turned tho bus Ui,
It's side and did climbing turn. Pop
pop. pop. turned around again and
nc was still after me. don't know
what I did then. but threw the bus
around some more and the next fine

'lhe light seemed to be over, so
pointed my nose toward the sun aud
soon ran into other Camcls and tUgcth
II we hustled home.

In IL later letter Mr.. Kinney says:
