of Africa. He is being sent thither by
the Museum of Natural History for pur
poses of research, and expects to sail
from Boston in September.

sel the museum has obtained informa

to a belief that the island contains
many specimens of plant and animal
Hfe entirely unknown to the world of
scler.ee.
Kerguelen island is situated at 49 de
grees south latitude and 70 degrees east
longitude, half way between Africa and
Tasmania. It is 90 miles, long, and con
tains volcanoes and glaciers. Its tem

whaling vessel will leave Mr. Klein at
the island, returning for him after a
three months' cruise in southern waters.

GAFTORD AFFIXES HIS O. K.
Superintendent Marshall's Work at
Mntohinson Reformatory Endorsed.
State Accountant J. C. Gafford today
placed In the hands of Governor Hocn
his report on the condition of the books
and accounts at the state Industrial re
formatory at Hutchinson. The report
covers the period from June 1, 1304, to
December 31, 1S05, this being the tim.
elapsed since the institution was check
ed up by State Accountant Rowett.
It was at the state reformatory that
the recent trouble occurred between the
superintendent and some of his assist
ants, resulting In the dismissal of the
assistants. Charges of quite serious
nature were brought against Superin
tendent Marshall by his enemies, but
these charges were not sustained by the
reformatory board.
According to Mr. Gafford. only one
discrepancy exists in the books of the
institution and that is trivial.
The report presents in tabulated form
