jury this week on two counts. He
pleaded guilty to one of them in Cir­

Victor A. Miller was indicted on
the charge of inducing a woman to
practice prostitution. He pleaded not
guilty.
Clarence H. Howard was indicted
for burglary not in a dwelling. He

After inspecting the county jail the
grand jury recommended that a more

that cleaner mattresses and pillows'
should be furnished for prisoners.
They highly complimented the

A further recommendation was for
the installation of sanitary drinking
