INDIANS BETTER.
Annual Report Of Superintendent of In
dian Schools.

dian Schools.
Washington, Nov. 29.-Estelle Reel
superintendent of Indian schools, has
submitted her annual report to the
commissioner of Indian affairs. She
notes a marked advance in industrial
training, and says the course of study
prescribed has materially assisted the
Indian youth in learning agriculture as
a means Of self-support, while the girls
have benefited by room curriculum,
which fits them for the duties and re-
sponsibilities of the home. The outing
system n the systematic transfer Of
pupils is strongly recommended. A
plea is made for improved and better
equipped day schools, these latter to
give way to district schools attended
by both races. The enrolment in 1909,
she says, was 2S,610. Miss Reel refers
to the gradual disappearance of the
blanket Indian, and the general i'm
provement in the condition of the race.

Washington, Nov. 29.-Count CaSsini, the
Russian ambassador, speaking today of
the reports contained in the press dis
patch from st. Petersburg relative to the

The statements contained in the press

that his ministers made certain remon-
strances. Under nc circumstances would
the ministers take any such action. With
out going into details, l will state that
the statements are entirely unfounded. AS
for the cars health, l received dispatches
only yesterday which state that he is in

BLOOD ON n MOON.
Sultan of Bacolod Is Again Whettina
His Snicker-Snee.

Manila, Dec. l.-Constabularly In
spector Hendrix, who has been sta
toned in Samar island, was killed last
Tuesday by a band Of ladrones. The
reports regarding his death are meager,
but Indicate that Hendrix was attacked
by a superior force of ladrones. His de-
tachment Of constabulary was routed,
and Hendrix, with n soldier, was sur
rounded M killed.
The sultan Of Bacolod, after profess
ing friendship for America, has written
a letter to Captain Pershing, at Camp
Wears, in which he calls Americans
'hogs-hogs who eat hogs" and chal-
longing them to fight. It is probable
that Captain Pershing. will be ordered
to take a column to Bacolod. The uil1-
tary men. however. doubt whether the
sultan will really fight.

decided to accept the resignation of
