FAMILIAR WITH GIRLS.
THE RESULT OF AN INVESTIGA-
TIUN AT PERRIS.
superintendent Savage of the Indian
School 10 Shown Up In n Vesy
Bad Light In His
Management.

The Perris Indian school has lately
been investigated. The result has shown
state of affairs greatly to be deplored.
In 1893 the school was opened under the
management and control OF W. H.
Savage, a man who was looked upon as
the very personification of uprightness.
He had record of being the principal
of a school in Santa Barbara for four
years, and of having had charge OF an
Indian school at Umatilla, in Oregon.
In all that time no word OF suspicion
was coupled with his name.
The school at Perris was built under
his direction. When it opened, it had
something like 40 Inuisn children, Of
boys and girls, ranging from l2>to Is
years OF age. He made ell the contracts
for supplies and for the necessary work
about the place. 1t was because of hie
extraordinary aptitude for making
bargains that caused the Investigations.
II was found that he had bargained to
have certain plowing done at $l.50 per
acre. His reports to the government
showed that he paid So per acre. The
difference had been placed in his own
pocket.
Several months ago special agent
by the name OF Russell came out to in
vestigate, but before it had progressed
very far Mr.. Savage concluded to take q
trip for his health. 1t must be still
impaired, for he has not returned, nor
ia an accurate knowledge of his where
abouts known, though it is said he ia
in Mexico. A week or so ago Mr.. Rus
sell was reinforced by Col. N. B. Shelby,
another special agent, and very
searching investigation has been the re-
suit. A few days ago it was finished,
and the colonel is on his way to Wash
ington with a very rscy report in his
inside pocket Enough is learned about
the report, however, to say that the
charges against Savage are very severe.
They not only include charges of de-
frauding the government, but they like
wise charge gross familiarity with
female inmates OF the school.
The school was made up from chill
dren taken from the Apache and Digger
Indians over in the Arizona reservations.
and the exposure OF the practices car
ried on elbows very corrupt state OF ai-
fairs, to say the least.

TOOK A ROOT BOILER.
THE DIFFICULT PROBLEM rs NOW
SETTLED.
The Supply Committee OF the Board
OF Education Saves the
City Some
Money.

The assertion that Figured won't lie"
evidently does not count when it comes
to figuring on boilers for high schools.
The supply committee of the board OF
education has reached a conclusion at
last, and the high school heating sppa-
ratus will have an Abendroth- Root
boiler connected with ii, and the con-
tractors for putting in the heating ap-
parstus will got but $3.50 more than the
contract price.
But the supply committee did not ar
rive at conclusion in the matter with
out an effort. The committee were pre-
eented with problems in mathematics
which would have hoored Philadel-
phia lawyer or Boston schoolmarn.
The contractors wanted 5000 moro
than the contract price, but they didn't
say go. They did not say much OF any
thing. in fact, but they arranged the
matter so that if it had gone through at
the meeting OF the board of education
on Monday night it would have given
the contractors $3.50 more than they will
now get.
The city may thank the members OF
the supply committee, who have wres-
tied with the problem for two days, for
the saving OF $3.50 to the city.
At about O'Clock yesterday Iths de-
cision was reached, after the committee
had been closeted in the office of DR..
Pepper for several hours.
This will be one of the first, If not the
first Root boiler to be put.up in this city
and there are very few on this coast.
Mr.. O. B. Boothe OF the machinery
supply company was interviewed by a
HERALD reporter last night in regard to
the Root boiler, for which this firm arc
the Pacific coast agents. Mr.. Boothe
stated that their connection with the
matter was simply in giving the con-
tractors figures on machinery and ap-
paratus, among which was the Root
boiler. The seeming discrepancy in
figures which has caused all the COM
ment was due to the comparison OF the
lowest net cost figures at which the boil.
era were figured by the manufacturers to
their agents on the one hand and the
price at which the boilers were put upon
the market to consumers. He COM
pliments the supply committee for the
astuteness with which they managed
the matter in the city, but stated that
the contractors were justly entitled to
the difference they asked in the first in
stance, as the Root boiler is fine piece
of workmanship, economical in opera
ton and cost much moro to manufac-
ture than the boiler first specified by the
contractors, and added that large pro-
portion of public buildings east OF the
Mississippi river is now equipped with
the improved Root boiler.

A Number OF Unfortuuates Who Wore
Tried.

OUT ON THE DEEP.

First Cruise of the Los Angeles Navs,
Keservss
The yachting excursion given by the
officers OF the Naval reserve yesterday
ON board the Rambler was decided
SUCCESS, and the occasion afforded much
pleasure to all who accompanied the
party. On account of the moderation of
the breeze on the start, it was decided
not to attempt to reach Catalina island,
as was previously intended, and instead
a cruise was made from Redondo, where
the party embarked, to Santa Monica
and thence out to sea, where much
stronger breeze was encountered.
This rendered the sailing much more
interesting and pleasant az time pro-
gressed, causing the few hours ct the
disposal OF those on board to pass
almost before it was realized that the
vessel was turned homeward.
The excursion was conducted by the
following officers of the Naval reserve:
Lieut. Frank Van Week, Lieut.. j. s.
Oliver and Ensign T. B. Emery.
On account of the small capacity OF
the yacht only limited number Of
guests accompanied the excursion and
were az follows:
Henry I. Hazard, w. Fl. Workman,
ir., H. Pease, Mrs. Frank Van Week,
Miss Stella Langbein and Miss Jessie
Todd.
The party returned to the city on the
last train last evening over the Redondo
road.

FOX HITS BACK.

The Bioycli are Getting Interested
Over tho Argument.
Much interest is being manifested
among wheelmen in the outcome OF the
Fox-Kitchin argument brought out by
Fox's challenge to race any Southern
California amateur a mile for a prize.
The following in answer to Kitchin's q
letter OF yesterday was sent to the sport
ing editor of the HERALD last evening {:
Mr.. p Kitchins rather evasive remarks in
your issue of August 22d have been duly noted.
From Mr.. Kitchin's remarks | judge that the
gentleman never perused the "lnvitation'
which appeared in your columns some tim Q
ago, though the original challenge appeared
before the gentleman LETT on tho aforemen-
toned vacation.
Be furthermore misquotes the amount named,
$50 being the amount instead OF $3.50 as he
states, but acting on the amount Mr.. Kitchin
suggests. l hereby challenge him to race OF
one mile under the original conditions, with
exceptions that the total amount be raised
from $75 to $3.50, and that the race come of
between October 1st and 18th, to be accepted
within seven days from this issue.
One word as to the alleged "unpaced mile in
2:15." If Mr. Kitchin had taken the trouble to
inquire, he would readily have ascertained
that never made claim for any such record,
and that the matte oris entirely in the
'think box" of u young man in this city, who
fabricated the stoiy and circulated it broad

laton of this rumor more than l do 1t was
wholly without my knowledge and was con-
tradieted soon after publication.
! admire Mr. Kitehin's 'eportsmanlike
spirit in risking his "mettle"t to the extent of
$75 on what he and everyone else knows to be
a sure thing; also his tact in avoiding the
question at issue.
Now, if Mr.. Kitchin is q true sportsman and
