Lake Co. Jail at Capacity.

The population of the Lake county jail reached the high water mark on Tuesday night when Sheriff Whitaker found that he had 180 under his care. This is the greatest number that the jail has ever housed at one time. All the available room in the jail was taken up and the sheriff was forced to supply an extra dozen cots. Police activities in- the northern part of the county are responsible.
