At a special term of commissioners
court held last Saturday the follow-
ing action was taken i.i regard to
the new jail now in process of con-
struction:
The court having examined in per-
.son the foundation walls of the jail
built by Eugene Davis & Co., and
being well satisfied that the same is
put up of good material and in good
workmanlike manner and according
to contract filein the clerk’s office
and specifications filed,
li is therefore ordered by the
court that said work be received, and
accepted and it is further ordered
by the curt that the clerk of this
court do issue a draft on the county
treasurer in favor of Eugene Davis
& Co., for the sum of 81,949.75 out
of the jail fund.
Ordered by the court that Eugene
Davis & Co., be allowed to put 1 1-6
inch plate iron on floor around cages,
and No. 12 sheet iron on walls in-
stead of 3 1-C MK-ue contemplated
by contract.

great aptness in answer ing questions,
especially in working and demon-

proved to be quite- thorough for
young scholars. A very interesting
feature of the exercises was the

to German and from German to

good and reflects credit on both
pupils and teacher. Another most
interesting feature of the occasion,
