WOMEN'S WARD AT THE JAIL

BUILDING COMMITTEE WILL CONSTRUCT ONE.

Board of Supervisors Give The Committee Full Swing To Go Ahead.

Tuesday the supervisors took up the matter of making improvements on the jail, in accordance with what the secretary of the state board of corrections and charities recommended.

There was considerable discussion about what it would cost, but the building committee is considered so competent and the board having such implicit trust in them, that it was decided to leave it to their judgment just what should be done, and they were authorized to go ahead and supervise the construction.

This means that an addition will be built on to the jail, and this addition will be used for a woman's ward.
