The Prison Board held no session yesterday. They waited on Mr. De Long. Today we believe it is proposed to proceed with the examination of witnesses whether Mr. DeLong puts in appearance or not. Mr. Clayton, bookkeeper at the Prison, is the next witness we understand.

The fire laddies resounded promptly to find that the home of District Attorney Sanford was being consumed by fire. The boys took the first cart to the main hydrant only to find that they didn’t have sufficient hose and a second trip had to be made.
