The attitude of tho man agement is very coiumeudable. At night the prisoners are chained to a beam with a short chain and a heavy shackle, This has been found advisable -because of the number of at tempts to escaix*. on Sunday. how ever, this danger l.s not xso great and the chain meu should not he compelled to wear three shackles lu daylight and be uuable to gather near the stove in winter or to avoid the ill reel, rays of the sun in summer. Somo of the other need* of thin camp are a better tent for the prlsouors, a new stove to replace the one now warp ed and. worn, and fresh meat once. a week and green vegetables often to add variety to the bill of fare. Report of Jail. The condition of the Kershaw Coun ty Jail Is only slightly improved since last year. The prisoners' quartern are cleaner than usual, and the wotu out bath tub has been removed. The pres ent bathing facilities consist of a gal vanized tub and a stove on which water can tte heated in winter. The number of prisoners Indicates that jsomc better arrangement is urgently needed. \ A hot water tank connected with a 4 bower bath would provide the facilities now wanting* At the time of this visit six white men and .seven negroes were confined in four cells and two small rooms.

The entire building should be screened, especially ?lnoe the sanitary conditions surrounding the jail are quite unsatisfactory, and files are consequently very numerous. Camden Hospital Notes.
