There IS more or less disappointment
this year among parents and friends of
the Clayton Public Schools that there
is no Commencement Exercises. The
people have looked forward to this
event yearly but this year under the
principalship of J. Frank McBee there
appears to be no graduating class.
There were five members in the senior
class but in the opinion of the Princi-
pal none of them were advanced far
enough to receive a diploma. The re-
suit has beer to break up in large de-
gree the class and it is hardly possible
that any of the five will stay to COM
plete their course. Two of the young
men have passed their entrance exami-
nation and matriculated at college,
others will go away to school and others
Fill not continue the course. 1t may
be two years before the Clayton High
School will graduate a class.

Annston, July 11.-(Speclal)-The affi- davits secured by Representative King of Jefferson county in justification of his request for an investigation of the Ala bama Bryce Insane asylum are absolutely without foundation, according to Dr. T. F. Huey who is associated with Dr. A. A. Greene in this city, and who was for twelve months connected with the asylum as a house physician.
 pr Huey says that there are frequent cases of malteratment of patients by pa tients, quoting several incidents of this kind, but he declares that brutality to patients by the attaches of the hospital is almost unknown, and whenever case of the kind comes to the notice of the head nurse or the head of the institution, the offending attache is promptly ex- peled.
 Just after he entered the hospital, he says, a nurse was dismissed for merely throwing d bunch of keys at an inmate, the keys having gone wide of their mark. pr Huey says that it is only the most vicious patients that are sent in the ''cross room
 If furniture were placed in this room, he says, 1t would be promptly destroyed as the maniacs frequently tear to shreds even the mattings and bed clothes on which they are supposed to sleep. The nurses and house physicians, says Dr. Huey, daily visit the various wards, and hear complaints from inmates. Almost in variably patients beg to be allowed to go home.
 He referred particularly to the testi- mony of H. II. Harton of Birmingham, and declared 1t preposterous.
 Harton wanted to be released on his own word that he was of sound mind and when he had to resort to habeas cor
