There is still considerable stir about the matter of corporal punishment in the public schools, and especially in re- gard to the I street building. Now that public attention has been called to the case of Perry Howard, there are several other fond prrents who claim that their children, too, have been severely whipped. The young lady teachers thus given so much unpl riety, are suffering, doubtles than « of the children could possibl from the events which led to public d discussion. It is conceded that the teachers used the instrument provided them for the purpose, and in the usual manner. It seems also te be conceded that the teacher who whipped Perry Hn\\uld did not realize that the blows we She was surprised on ing that the whipping caused bruises on the flesh, and there seems to to be no'one who claims for a moment that there was sn intent to be unduly was no anger or on the part of the who are tencher, The young ladies thus brought be- fore the pub) more than they but feel that teachers will, at jured in the adies the puinful, It has been stated that the mar the boy were not so severe as his step- father, Mr, Lynch, claimed.

He is reported as saying that the Kind in use is better adapted for knocking down beeves or as aclub for highwaymen, than for schovl purposes. Others of the board do not seem so fie for its abolishment. They say there is little use of a whipping that won’t hurt. They don’t seem to want whipping made so easy that children will ety for it and not ery after it.

He was engaged in moving a pole on North Main street and had climbed to the top to unfasten the wires. As soon as the last one was loosened, the pole, which forty feet high, began to fall. The redoubtable “Jim,” although pos- ed of ble nerve, was greatly excited at the prospect of having his head used as a triphammer on the paving, but he did not dare to let go, and was afraid to hold on.
