This the Rr port of IredeU Grand Jury , on Oonnty Home and Jail nit of t)roaiy Against urawiey jjeciaea For Plaintiff. , Bpeclal to The Observer. Statesvtlle, Nov. 14. The grand Jury of Iredell Superior Court, In ses sion, has completed its work and re ported to the court. The report on the county home saya: 'This plant outside of the keeper's home and barn. Is a fire-trap and practically worthies We, therefore, recom mend a modern build in x for these un fortunates, with furnace heatt water ana sewer facilities." The Jury found the Jail building to be an old struc ture very dangerous in esse of fire, and says a new jail Is badly needed and recommends that one he built at once. Three days of the court's time was taken In hearing and disposing of one Interesting civil case that of James H. Crosby and others va S. B. Braw ley and others, which was put on trial Tuesday morning and was not given to the Jury until Thursday afternoon about 4 o'clock. Some years ago Mr. Crosby deeded his land to tils son-in-law, Mr. 8. B. Brawley. on condi tion that Mr. Brawley take care of htm and his wife the remainder of their lives. Two children of Mr. Crosby, Rev. J. H. Crosbv. an Episco pal clergyman, and Miss Mania Crosby, who lives In Charlotte, brought suit to set aside the convey ance of the property to Mr. Braw ley on theground that their father was not capable or makina- the con veyance,' If- beln testified by many witnesses that Mr. Crosby had for years suffered from Illusions and was eccentric. The Jury was out but a few minutes when It returned a ver dict for the plaintiff, the effect of which is to set aside the deed made to Brawley, and the land reverts to Crosby. THE WgATHER.

The vote in Ashe was a surprise to the Republi cans, for they verily believed they were going to win this time. Every man on ths Democratic ticket was elected but one, Jtoseph W. Calloway, candidate for sommlssioner, and he would have oeen elected but for the fact that he waa taken up from the Republican cartv and placed on the Democratic ticket, he having declared to his friends that he would serve If eleoted by the Democrats. He Is present chairman on the Republican board of county commissioners. He Is a good man. but the Democracy of Ashe feels that It made a mistake some, years ago Jy going Into the comp of the enemy for a candidate, hence Mr. Calloway' defeat. The majorities in the county are as follows: J. Elwood cox, it. w. w Newland. t: rest of the State ticket went Democratic toy a majority of S.
