TROUBLE IN THE SCHOOL
A Roy Severely Whipped.


A few days ago young son Of
NJ. NJ. Hyde came home from
school with his hands welted, and
sobbing over whipping he had re-
ceived from = lady teacher.
Mrs. Hyde interviewed the trustees
regarding the matter, complaining
that the teacher had severely
whipped the boy, and that the
whipping was not warranted. The
CHI ildren of tho school give the fol-
lowing version Of the affair:
Young Hyde in carrying a die
tionary from one desk to another
dropped the book. He was told to
pick it up and being a small boy
he found some trouble in handling
it. The teacher reprimanded him
for his c!umsinsss, and then told
him to get down on his hands and
knees and study his lessons. He
declined to do this and was told to
hold out his hands and be whipped.
Before. the punishment he re-
marked that his mother would
come down and mop the floor"
with the teacher. This angered
her still more and he was beaten
until he fell on his knees and
begged her to stop. This is the
version given by the school child
dren who were present at the time.
Last evening an APPEAL reporter
interviewed the parents OF the
child. Mr.. Hyde stated that there
we're several weIts on the boys
hands. most of them on the back.
They were not bleeding as reported
by the school children, but festered
and became vatery. He did not
think the punishment particularly
severe if administered on the
palms. The chilli showed his
hands to the reporter and three
marks Of the whip were slightly Wis
ible. He said he had been
lifted up by the hair when kneel-
ing on the floor and struck on the
hands, both on the back and palms
ten times.
MIR. Hyde Asserted that the pun
ishmcnt was not so Sc, ere as re-
ported by the children, but the
teacher seemed to have gone into a
passion because by her whipping
she was not able to make the boy
cry. The teacher had claimed that
the boy had given Miss. Bardeu-
| werper trouble and was bad boy,
but this Miss. Bardenwerper has
denied. For letting the book fall
the child had been compelled to
kneel forty minutes on the fioor
| which she considered punishment
enough. The boy complained that
the teacher held back credits which
properly belonged to him and had
been called a little tattler' by the
| teacher for relating the matter to
his mother. In her opinion the
one case of whipping was not SC
| agravating as the teachers constant
nagging at the boy for whom she
| seemed to have . personal dislike.
The boy never had the slightest
reason for saying that his
mother would come to the school
and interfere with the teacher
Mr.. Hyde has placed the matter
before the Trustees, but as yet nc
action has been taken.
The name of the teacher is not
published a. she as yet has had nc
opportunity of giving her YER
sion of the affair.

ARTHUR ORTONS COUNTERPART.
A Singular Legal Investigation in Progress
Near Montreal, Canada.

MONTREAL, Canada, May 9.-In the rural par
ish of St Philippe few miles west of this
city. on tho St Lawrence a legal investigation
has been i'll progress for some days under a
United States court commission from st. Paul.
Mimi, which is exciting much interest from its
resemblance to the great Tichborne suit in
England. The question at issue relates to the
identity of Isale Desnoyers, who has entered
suit in ST. Paul to recover two hundred acres of
land, worth 5000, 900. in the immediate vicinity
of that city, of which the claimant alleges he is
the legal owner The history of the case is en-
braced in the following synopsis of the evidence
produced before the commissions In 1884 Ell
enne Desnoyers son of q habitant residing in
St Philippe, emigrated to the Eastern
States, and, after remaining there a few years,
emigrated to the West, making his future home
at St Paul, on 200 acres of land which he pur-
chased. With the advance Of population in St
Paul the estate became valuable, and at the
time of his death, six months ago, he had real
lied 5000, 900 on the sale of only portion of it.
Deceased had three sisters living with him. and
they claimed the estate after his death They
also disposed of the balance of the land for
$lO0000 There was no dispute raised as to
their title to the inheritance until few months
ago, when Isale Desnoyers arrived at st.
Philippe from Nebraska, after twenty-six years
absence and Immediately had an action entered
in st. Paul to recover the estate from the par
tleS IN possession on the ground tnat ne is son
ndheir of the late Etienne Desnoyers. His state
ment regarding his history is to the effect that
his alleged father married in Troy, in 1886, and
that his wife, claimants mother, died there af-
ter the childs birth. The father having made up
his mind to try his fortune in the West, sent his
son TO a relative in st. Philippe, named An
tome Desnoyers, to be brought up. After the
child arrived the latter had him baptized by the
parish cure as his own offspring. The boy grew
up, and was always known as Antoines son.
When he was seventeen years of age Etienne
DesnOyers wrote from st. Paul for the Lad to be
sent to him. He went there and remained five
years with his alleged parent, and then struck
out for Nebraska. He has returned to claim his
alleged natural and lawful rights. A large num-
Der of local witnesses have given their evidence.
but under the belief that the claimant is Antoine
Desnoyers son. The baptismal register, as kept
by the priest, who is now dead, was produced
and it is therein stated that Isale Desnoyers
was the lawful Issue of of Antoine and Marie
Desnoyers, his wife. This old couple who
brought up the claimant are alive STILL but their
mental powers are so impaired by age that they
are incapacitated from giving evidence. 1t is a
singular case, and opinions are divided as to
whether the claimant is another Arthur Orion
ike the one now nearing the end of his ten years
imprisonment in England.
