During the year sixty boarding and one
hundred and ten day schools have been in
operation among tho different Indian
tribes, Exclusive OF I've civilized tribes in
Indian Territory which have been at
tended by over 1000 children and taught
by over 3lG teachers. The educational
work OF the bureau could have been en-
larged TO much greater extent, but for in
adequate appropriation made by Congress
for support ot schools. Fifty thousand
Indians at seventeen agencies have no
treaty school funds whatever, and the
educational facilities must depend mainly
on general appropriations for education.
Among these tribes thore arc at least I, 900
children OF school age. The reports from
schools on various reservations are full OF
encouragement, showing aa increased and
more regular attendance Of pupils and
growing interest in education on the part
a their parents.
In compliance with the appeala from
neglected agencies the Bureau has mads
arrangements for erecting lis boarding
school buildings during tue coming sea-
son and for the establishment OF l3 new
boarding schools. These will be the first
schools OF any kind ever provided lor the
5000 San Carlos ApAChes and Western
Shoshones, and tho frat boarding schools
opened for 5000 Indians at nine other
agencies where small, irregulRrly attended
day schools have hitherto met with indiE-
ierent success and made little impression

Gated.

details OF the attempt to murder the bal

patches. Timothy Bourke, foreman on
the estate Of Erasmus Smith, owed two
years rent. Being unable to pay he was
evicted on the 9th inst. He and his family
took refuge in the house OF relative, q
short distance away. Landers, Smiths
agent, took measures 10 prevent Bourke
from retaking the farm. He placed six
armed bailiffs in Bourke's house. The
neighborhood was much excited regarding
the eviction. The tactics employed in
Captain Boycott's case were used. No
provisions were sold 10 the bailiffs,
who were starved out at the end
OF week and refused to continue to
hold the house. They were replaced by
six others, who up to the present time
hold the garrison pluckily, going regularly
to Limerick for provisions. Mr.. Landers
himself was shot, and the intimidation
continued, but unsuccessfully. Thursday

George F. Davis Of Cavendish said that
he kept many head of valuable stock for
making butter, and he had felt afraid of
barbed fence; but he had seen 1t used
much in the west. He had two.hundred
acre pasture, in which there are kept
several cattle. After inquiry. he bought
eight hundred pounds of it, aad should
have put it up but for these bills. He
could fence this pasture with barbed fence
without settieg forty posts-could attach
it to trees. If he had to put boards on
top of this fence it would make it i'm
practicable he would have to resort to
brush fence, which would he burned down
by the trains every year. By using barbed
fence he could get the interest of 81, 800
every year. He had other lots he wanted
to fence with barbed fence, and be felt IA
great deal of interest in it. 1t was as
safe as any fence; and it was cheap; cost
twelve cents pound, the size he used

the Rutland and Burlington road cattle
were killed by trains every year. This
fence would be an absolute protection
against cattle getting on to the road.
This closed the oral testimony. Mr..
Goddard handed the committee dozen
or more dispositions of well known gen.

to its value. He then summed up briefly
the claims in behalf of the fence which
had been developed by the esimOny.
The objection was that ii was cruel. THIS

of this fence would save many animals
from being killed on railroads, and would
