the mysterious power of producing speed
power can be known certainly only from
actual results. Henry S. has five colts al

close to $50 that some of them are almost
certain to reach that charmed limit the pres

if the service fee will be likely to remain at the

the Indians complain that contributions made
for their benefit were used for the bene ilt

also aminaiverted severely upon the use of
the dungeon of the guard house built in the
basement under the Offices of the institution.
This cell is only six feet six inches long,
three feet three inches wide, aud nine feet
six inches high. 1t has no window nor any
means of light whatever and when the door
is closed the cell is absolutely dark The
only ventilation is some small holes in the
side wall at the top of the cell which do not
connect with the outside air. A little straw
comprised the furniture of the room In
dian boys, DR.. Childs reported, were some
times confined in the cell for few days to
more than weeks at time, and some Of the
officers of the institution said the stencil was
awful when the boy was removed. Gen,
Clinton B. Fish, chairman Of the board of
Indian commissioners, secured copy of this
report and sent two members of the board to
Hampton who made report directly con
trary TO that Of Dr. Childs.
DIR. Childs has written letter to Gen
Fiske, making some sharp criticisms of the
board of Indian commissioners. That there
were things needing correction In the man

evident from the fact that they were correct
