THE CHARGES DENIED
-
Alleged Maladministration Of
Indian Schools.
DISEASE AND MORALS
CONDITIONS MET BY THE EDUCA-
TORS.
Statement of John Finn, Superintend-
ent Of the School at Cham
berlain, s. D.

Mr.. John Finn, superintendent of the In
dian school at Chamberlain, S. D.. who has
been in Washington for several days, and
who called upon President Roosevelt yes
terday afternoon to talk over the condi-
tion Of the Indians in his state, is emphatic
In his denial Of the charges recently made
in resolution introduced in the Senate
that Indian schools are conducted in a loose
and improper manner.
Disease Among Indian Pupils.
'In behalf Of the many good Christian
workers, who are engaged in the arduous
labor OF educating the Indian youth, whose
characters have been smirched by the reso'
luton, desire to present to the public the
other side of the question:" Mr.. Finn said
to an Evening Star reporter today. THE
resolution charges that many Of the reser-
walton schools in this country, as well as
many non-reservation schools, are con-
Quoted loosely and without proper super
vision: that tuberculous pupils and pupils
suffering from contagious diseases are
housed in dormitories with other children
and without any attempt to segregate them
or protect the healthy children from conta-
gion.
"To person not familiar with the Indian
schools it would appear that this was
serious charge, and that the superlntend-
ents Of the schools are criminally negligent.
l have been actively engaged in the Indian
service in the field since 1894, and what l
say is not hearsay. We take pupils into
our schools for a term Of two, three or five
years. At the time the pupil is enrolled he
is examined by a physician. He may be in
perfect health at the time. and yet inside
Of two or three years he may die of con-
sumption. White persons die of consump-
tion under similar circumstances.
when case of tuberculosis develops In
my school, the pupil is taken to his home,
IL he has any home. Otherwise he is iso-
lated as much as possible. If consumptive
pupils and those suffering from contagious
disases are allowed to mingle with the
sound and healthy pupils it is not much
the fault Of the superintendent in charge
as 1t is that of Congress. The superintend
ents would be only too glad to keep the
diseased pupils entirely separate from the
healthy ones, if only adequate means were
placed at their disposal by Congress.
ut Is also charged in this resolution that
Indian children are taken by force from
their reservations and sent to far-distant
schools. which system has resulted in an
appalling mortality among such children
by reasons of climatic changes, want of
proper attention. absence Of friends and
familiar surroundings, and Otner causes in
cident to such a system

WALSH SCHOOL JANIToR,

One Appointed Last Night--Miss Char 1 ters Tenders Resignation as Teacher. The board of education held regu-
 lar meeting last evening, 1t being the Monday preceding the first Thursday in the month. Not much business was transacted, but all the business that
 was ready and opportune was disposed of. Mayor Kilduff presided. The principal matters disposed of was the selection of a janitor of Walsh school and the hearing of complaint from Edward B. Green, chairman of the South Brooklyn school district commit
 tee. This last was in reference to the order of the board that the school should be closed and the pupils go to the schools nearest to them To do this 1t was necessary to unrol1 a good deal
 of red tape, one of the thousand compli-
 cations following in the wake and aris-
 ing out of. consolidating the city and
 town governments. It was necessary that the district should apply to the
 board of aldermen for permission to
 enter the city schools. The district
 taxpayers did this, but, according to
 MT Green, they were given the Gold
 shoulder at least they felt that way. <
 Now said MT Green, "here we are.
 You have ordered the school to be
 closed and we have about 200 children
 on our hands without any place to send
 them to school. We pay taxes and we
 do not understand why the board of all
 dermen should treat us in this man.
 ner.''
 Mayor Kilduff explained that it was not the fault of the board of educa-
 ti0n that affairs should be in this state, | x.-~k7 T. some of the members of the, board of aldermen and have the matter adjust ed. MT Green appeared to be satis- fled with this and he left the room. Miss Catherine Charters Stendered her resignation, to take effect immediately, and 1t was accepted.
 Next Saturday afternoon the board will visit the new school buildings Walsh and Russell. as both are now practically completed.
 Inspector Smiths monthly report was accepted. and Thomas F. Bowling was appointed janitor of the Walsh school his salary to be $60 month. le Mir Bowling is at present employed by the Waterbury Clock Go and lives on Bea- con street. Aa A4 There may be some difficulty in fur. nishing the new schools. as n letter from the contractor, T. M. Sauder of Marietta, Pa, informed the board that his warehouse was completely de. | stroved by a fire quite recently. The application of Mrs M. A. Riley for a position as janitor of the Walsh school was referred to the committee
 on that work.
 The usual bills and payroils were ap- proved. X | An application from John McCarthy, ! ianitor of the Porter street school. for
 an increase in salary to make it $50 a I month was field. 1 1t was decided to meet again next | Monday evening when the bids foI | building the new Washington Hill school will be opened. The board then adjourned.

4 WAX POLICEMAN.
Young Lady stenographer Thought It
 Was One of the Finest.

z,
 A local young lady stenographcr is being jollied considerably by num- Der of her friends. owing to an anus ing incident which happened during her vacation last week. A part of the vacation the young lady spent in that great city, which is famous for Bill Devery, New York. She always had fond desire to see, the Eden Musee and the innumerable wax figures and images, for she is of an artistic frame of mind and her taste is high. Well, to the museum she went an as she en- tered the place who should offer her a deep bow but policeman standing at the door, Now the young lady has one or two osrelatives on the New York police force and by them she has been introduced to several other policemen in the metropolis Well, the young lady at first thought that the policeman was very impudent and forward to speak to a person, especially a lady, whom he didn't know. So she passed by and didn't return the salutation but after rehecting little sha thought that 1t might be one of the policemen to whom she had been introduced, and not wishing to slight him she went back to offer the policeman an apolo- gy When she returned she was greet ed with the same bow and she return ed the bow and gave one of her best smiles In the bargain. She was just beginning to excuse herself for not speaking to him in coming in when 10 and behold. she was addressing wax figure in the shape of policeman, which was moved automatically. It IS unnecessary to say that the young lady left that spot in hurry. She meant to keep this incident to herself but it is difficult to keep secret and consequently the. story has become known and the young ladv is being freauently asked if she visited New York during her vacation.
