Cruel rrsasnsss or . Boy as ths
0rphass' Hems. CaFson.

Yesterday Fred. Gray. o Of Mrs.
Gray Of Virginia. called at the shsriffs
Office and inquired where his mother
lived. Il was drawn from him BY ques-
tons that he had been in the Orphans
Home in Carson and. his mother having
moved in his absence, he did not know
where to find her.
In answer to questions further, the
boy said he had u away from the
Home because the teacher. Miss Harris,
had whipped him. The people In the
sherif's ofios thought nothing particular
OF the case. supposineths Hsns to be q
well managed institution, and accordingly
held the boy for return and sent for his
mother.

cifully whipped for m~isspelling q word.

taxable proof OF the whipping part.
whatever his offsnse might have been.
Last evening . representative Of the
News met at the Shsriff's Office both the
boy and his mother.
10 proof Of the tale OF castieation the
boy barred his arm. It was black and
blue most OF the way from the wrist to
the shoulder. His back 10 also discol-
ored from the neck down certainly to the
short ribs and his mother says the worst
part 10 In the region Of the small OF bis
back.

was that he was corrected for misspell'

offsnse to be punished 80 severely and
that there must be more to the whole
story, the boy Was asked particularly
about his offenss and said unreservedly
and apparently truthfully that he had in
sisted that he spelled the word right.

Commodore's cruise In the Tioonderosa
around the world he had an audience
with Leon Chang, viesrOy Of China.
and was offered the command Of the
Chinese navy. that government being
DESTROYS Of recognizing Its navy on
modern, and especially American prin-
ciples. The offer was o fAttsring one,
but Commodore Shuisldt. being then
on government duty. could not accept.
He gave the matter serious considers
ton, and upon his return to this eoun-
try decided TO accept the position. He
was aided to this determination BY Sec
rotary Blaine. who was heartily In favor
Of accepting the position, believing that
Il would have some effect In breaking up
EpRland's supremacy In the East. The
order attaching the Commodore TO the
Legation Of Picking was made that bis
expenses could DO paid by the govern.
ment. The salary attached to Shufeldt's
new position IL $40. 900 q year. He will
leave Washington In time to reach San
Francisco on the 10th Of May, on which
date o steamer sails for Toxic. He will
be accompanied by his daughter. The
Commodore expects to be absent about Q
year and q bali.

Shufeldt In China was most opportune
