Associated Press Dispatches TO the HERALD.
PINE RIDGE AGENCY, OAK, June 16.-
The Commissioners we're informed this
morning that the Cheyennes desired tt
have talk in their dialect, as they did
not understand the language used yester'
day. Inquiry developed the fact that
when the Cheyennes were leaving their
camps for this caucus, the Sioux soldiers
interfered, and told ttem that they must
not talk to the Commissioners. This
action indicates the policy Of Red Cloud
and his followers, and is in line with
their conduct yesterday. The Cheyennes
were given separate audience, and the
bill carefully explained in their own lam
guage. They expressed satisfaction with
it frequently. 1t seems now that the
mixed bloods are in favor of ratifying the
bill, aud that the opposition to it ia
mainly confined to Red Clouds follow.
ing.
TIE Sioux Indians had council among
themselves while the Commissioners
were talking to the Cheyennes. About
fifteen chiefs spoke in opposition to the
bill. "No Flesh and American Horse"
spoke in favor of the bill, the former
saying that he would sign, no
matter whe objected, and if any one
tried to prevent him he would make
them cry. "Oid Man-Afraid. Of His
Horse" a former great chief, said he
was too old to control his young men
whom he wanted to think for them.

most essential measure, and splint
should be used in its support. To lessen
the supply of blood to the injured mem
Der during the infammatory stage, it
should be elevated and cold applied.
Cold applications should be made to the
joint either by cloths wrHrg out of cold
water, or by powdered ice tied up in
towels or in rubber bag. A very CON
venient method of keeping the cloths wet
without changing them is as follows: Fill
a pitcher or some other vessel with water,
and place it higher than the limb. Moist
en- string or strip OF linen, and place
one end of it in the water; let the other
end hang on the outside, and rest in on
the cloths which cover the injured part.
The water will be continuously conducted
along the string or linen used.
The application of cold should be per.
sisted in until the Inflammation has sub
sided; the swelling may then be reduced
by bandaging, uniform pressure and
irmness being used. More or less stiff
ness of the Joint will remain for time;
this may be overcome by gentle move
ments, if they do not excite more than
momentary pain. If, however, the pain
is more or less persistent, then the part
must be kept still longer at rest. The
local treatment to restore the action is
much the same as in chronic rheumatism.
Stimulating linaments may be used; it
matters but little which is selected; the
efficacy of all depends almost entirely
upon the handwriting employed in their
application. One part to three of lima
ments, ammonia and camphor make a
good preparation.

INSPECTING INDIAN SCHOOLS.
Condition in the Schools Not What The
Ought to Be.

Condition in the Schools Not What They
Ought to Be.
WAsHINGToN-Some time ago, Rev.
DR.. Childs, at the request of Sec.
Noble, went to the Hampton Indian
school and quietly investigated COM
pl ints in regard to the management of
the Indians, which have been brought to
the attention of the government. DR..
Cnilds report was to the effect that the
food given Indian boys was not good
and Indians com planned the contribution
made for their benefit were used for the
benefit of the negroes of the school. DR..
Childs also anImadverted severely upoI
the use of noisesome dungeon or guard
house built in the basement under
offioes of the institution. Gen. Clinton B.
Fisk, chairman OF the board of Indian
commissioners, sent two members of the
board to Hampton who made report
contradictory to Childs. DR.. Childs has
written letter to Gen. Fisk in whic b
he says it is evident there
were things which needed correction,
from the fact that they were corrected
after his investigation, and the Indians
sent representative to this city 70
return thanks for their improved condi-
ton. AS TO immuring the Indians In a
dungeon, he says he is amazed that the
board can defend this mode of disciplin-
nag Indian children. 1t is understood
that Secretary Noble has decided that
cell punishment shall not be inflicted
hereafter.
