S % A case of exceeding scverity on the part of a school teacher in the punish ment of a pupil is reported from the Spring Valley Evening School on Broad- way, near Polk street. For the offense of throwing a plece of paper across th school room, Bridewell H. Evans says he was beaten almost into insensibility by the principal, J. B. Sykes. The weapon with which Sykes punished the | hoy was a pointer, an instrument about | the size and welght of a billiard cue. Ac- | cording to the boy's story, when it was reduced to splinters on his' body, the teacher resorted to ‘a strap, but finally | threw it aside and beat the lad on the | head and face. | Young Evans, who 1s not quite 14 years old |'has been attending the night school for the past six months and has never pre- viously had'any trouble with his teacher. He has been i1l for the last two weeks and had barely recovered from his sick- of this week. Thursday night his teacher, Miss O'Sul- {1tvan, caught him committing some minor ! infraction of the rules and as a punish- ment made him sit on the platform be- side her. While seated there a boy throw | & wad of paper at him, hitting him on the | mouth. Evans picked it up and tossed it | | back into the class. Miss O’Sullivan re- | ported the matter to the principal, Mr. ,é'kv?, who sent for the boy forthwith. ‘I was not allowed to make any ex- | the boy when scen at his home last even- ing. ‘‘The principal picked 1o & pointer and told me to hold out my hand. I re- | fused to obey him and he began hitting me over the legs and body. When the stick broke into pieces he came after me with a strap, but that did not do much damage and he threw it aside. I told him he was afraid to take a fellow of his siz | and he jumped at me with his clenche fist. He struck me several times on the head and face until everything got black around me and I could not tell what he was doing. After that he made me sta; in_the schoolroom for an hour and a half, when some of the boys had to take me home.” In corroboration of his statements the boy exhibited various severe cuts and bruises from his head down to his ankles.
