people of both sexes rs good educa-
tional advantages as can be obtained
outside of college walls.

In describing the beating OF
Henry Porter by A. ID, Jackson
who had temporary charge of the con.
victs during the acscnce of the regular
overseer, DIR. 5. Pope, one of the pen
itentiary physicians, says: "As an ovi.
dcnce of the severity of the whipping
inflicted, would state that the tissues
have sloughed, leaving an open sore
eighteen inches long by ten inches
wide. The punishment must have
been very cruel. | doubt his COM
plcte recovery Other convicts were
also cruelty beaten, although the
condition of those now at work is
said to be very fair.
Jackson, the inhuman guard, has
fled to Georgia, but efforts are being
made TO secure his arrest. There Is
great indignation at these outragcs.
and steps will probably be taken at
the next session of the legislature to
discontinue the practice of hiring out
the convicts to railroad companies and
phosphate miners.

WASHINGTON NEWS.
THE CATTLE TRAIL QUESTION.

THE CATTLE TRAIL QUESTION,
Washington, July s.-The reported
obstruction of cattle trails through
the Indian Territory by settlers upon
tho Cherokee strip, is engrossing the
attention OF the secretary OF the int.
rior. In answer to complaints made
by droycrs, that they were not per.
mitted to take their cattle over the es-
tablished trails, the secretary telc-
graphed that no one had right to
obstruct them. Nevertheless It APP
pears that officers of the federal
courts in Kansas whose jurisdic-
ton extends over the Chero-
kee strip have disregardcd
these kilograms, and persisted in ex-
GLIDING Texas cattle under the act of
May "a, 1888, which forbids any per-
son to drive cattle on foot through
any state knowing them to be infected
with contagious diseases. Secretary
Lamar now requests the Attorney
general to instruct the court officers
to cease their opposition to those
using the established trails, and to re-
train from interfering with cattle
drovers while on such trails in the
Indian Territory.
TEXANS UNIQUE PATFNT.
Washington, July s. Lucian Hop
son, OF Texas when the late war be-
gan, invented and had patented by
the confederate government, pro-
iectile which was used with some
success in Charleston harbor against
the union vessels. After the war the
patent of course became worthless.
Recently Hopson filed an application
for a patent for the same projectile
and letter has been sent TO him from
the interior department Informing
him that his application had been
granted.
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE MATTERS.
Washington, July s.-The Agricul-
tural College convention which met
here to-day, was called to order by
Hon. w. +. Switzler, of Missouri.
Commissioner Coleman was chosen
temporary chairman, and Professor
G.. L. Fairchild, temporary secretary.
A committee OH credentials was
named. Commissioner Coleman, in
his opening address of welcome,
briefly stated the discussion in
congress, which preceded magnificent
grants of lands for the endowment of
agricultural colleges in the several
state and said it would be conceded
that the general public professeda de-
gree of disappointment in the outcome
Of that appropriation. The idea in con-
gress was thvt of interesting young
men in farming operations and in the
fundamental principles of soil cul-
ture. Facts were submitted to
congress showing that the
average of yields were gradually d.
minishing in quantity and that the
soil was being rapidly exhausted OF
! plant food. To arrest this somewhat
alarming tendency, it was deemed ad-
visable to encourage institutions
where the results of scientific iuvesti-
! cations in vegetable physiology would
be eXempliiled aud their practical ap'
plication in fields and gardens clearly
illustrated. The results haC
not been commensurate will
the public expectations.
