cases of the same order.
Judge Hickey supplemented ms
remarks by giving some of his own
experiences since he has been on
the bench. While not criticising
the administration, the judge
spoke or the wretched condition of
the local jail, and stated that the
form of the building made the
greatest of the Objectionable con-

criticised the conditions, he said,
nothing had been done.
