            incarcerated at the Adult Correctional  Institutions in Rhode



            Island, appeals  from the  district court's dismissal  of his



            civil  rights suit  under 42  U.S.C.    1983 against  various



            state  prison officials.    We affirm  substantially for  the



            reasons given in the magistrate judge's report dated July 12,



            1995,  which the district court adopted as its decision.  See

            have considered Heon's claims of error, but find none of them



            persuasive.



                      Affirmed.  See Loc. R. 27.1.
