sidered that they had taken with them
certain fixtures and appliances that
should have been left in tlio building.

of Jos. H. Brown vs. H. E. Thompson,
suit being brought for the sum of aboat
♦300, alleged to be dne on inte
rior deoorating done by the plaintiff at

The grand Jury whioli has beeq ifi
session since Monday morning adjourned
yesterday afternoon at half post five
o’clock. The jury accomplished a tre
mendous amount of work and their pre
sentments are able and interesting.
Tlie condition of tbs pnbllc roads de
manded much of their timo and atten
tion. They recommended a step of
great importance viz; that the system
of working the misdemeanor convicts on
the publio roads bo inaugurated. A let
ter from Capt. E. M. Smith, chairman
of the .boar i --onnty commissioners tell*
tlio method by wliich this system may
be installed, the probable 'cost, the
modo of taxation and othor details.
Sinco the grand jury has recommended
this step,the county commissioners, will,
as soon os possible, pnt it into effect.
Another important improvement that
is recommended is the addition of several
rooms to the county jail for the adequate
care of prisoners. t
Tlio jury also deprecates the increas
ing violations of the Sunday laws and
admonishes the officers of the law to
see to it that nothing bat medicino is
hereafter sold on the Sabbath.
The coiqmittoes report the books of
the connty officers and justices of the
peace to bo carefully kopt, and especial
ly commend Tax Collector Hecth.
The grand jury at this term was an
unusually fine body of men and every
lino of their presentments is interesting.
They will be pnblislied in full in the
Times-Enterprise.
