SAY PRINCIPAL
THREW BOY OUT
OF HIS ROOM
Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob BIOOmer, of
Orange, Accuse Mr.. Duke-
shire of Violence.

Complaining hat their 13-year-old
son, Edgar. had been grasped violently
by Stanley c. Dukeshire, principal of
the Cleveland Street School, Orange,
and thrown out of the door, his clothing
being torn and buttons ripped off in the
operation, Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Boomer,
of n Carroll street, Orange, appeared
at the police station today and asked
Judge Bray to take some action. They
explained they did not wish to make a
serious charge against Mr.. Dukeshire,
but insisted that the alleged brutal
treatment of their son was unwarrant-
ed. No formal complaint was made, but
the authorities are investigating the
situation.
After their visit to Judge Bray. Mr..
and Mrs. Boomer talked of their sons
experience. The boy, who was a mem
Der of the advanced sixth grade, was
suspended on Wednesday last for five
days by Mr.. Dukeshire. following his
refusal to apologize in front of the class
for failure to respond to his teachers
grammar lesson questions, He was
sent by Miss Frazer, his teacher, to
the principals room, INT while agree
ing to~apologize in person would not
offer the apology before the class. Sew
eral days continued refusal led to his
suspension.
On Thursday Mr.. Dukeshire, Mrs.
Bloomer stated, called at the house
and removed the suspension and sent
for the boy. When he showed up, at
10 o'clock, he was asked what he in
tended to do, and reiterated his in
tention to apologize in private to the
teacher. Then, his mother says, he was
clutched by the collar and thrown out
of the room. His mother returned
with him, and the boy again offered to
apologize to the teacher or principal,
but was refused admission to his class.
Complaint to the Board of Education
interested School superintendent Riggs,
who explained that the boy was re-
quired to obey school discipline and
that he had acted unruly. Mr.. Riggs
said the boy was evidently not accus-
toned to respond to discipline, and
as no o was made to return the
boy to his class and Mr.. Dukeshire in
formed Mrs. Bloomer the boy could not
return to his former school o attend
any public school in the city, the mat
ter was referred to the police.
"I was perfectly willing the boy
should apologize. but after all this mis-
treatment neither myself nor Mr..
Bloomer will allow Edgar to apologize
said Mrs. Bloomer.
AS Mrs. Bloomer is a member of the
Home and School Association of the
school the incident has provoked much
discussion in the school centre. and the
next move is awaited with interest. In
the meantime, Edgar is still away from
his lessons and wonders what will be
the settlement of his case.
The lads refusal to answer a gram
mar question was due to lack of study,
and his excuse offered was that he was
out of the room when the lesson was
given out to the other children. Mr..
Bloomer was one time nominee for
alderman from the Fifth ward, and is
well known in the city.

which he gave to Treasurer McGuirk.
The mayor also justified his accept
ance of the proffered check, without
interest, as = good business proposition.
He asked that IL any business man had
a chance to get a long due account at its
face value he would not prefer to ac-
cept the funds and let the interest go,
instead of running into an expensive
lawsuit, with the chances of failure
equal to those of winning.

politics with your business" was Mayor
Flint's statement in closing the discus

IRyINGTON.
RED MILL INN is
NOW OWNED BY WHOM ?
PrOprietorship Questioned by
IrvingtOn Recorder.

The present proprietorship of the Red
Mill Inn at 1347 Springfield avenue was
a question taken up by Recorder Tur-
ton in the police court last night.
Killian Jubert was for many years
the owner of the place, 1t being known
as Jubert's Hotel. Recently cards were
distributed notifying the public of the
change of name TO the Red Mill Inn
and announcing w. e. Voors as the
manager. Rumors also reached the
public officials that the interests of the
former proprietor had been transferred
to Voors, but not transfe of license
had eithe been applied for or granted.
Mr.. Jubert stated to the recorder that
he was still the owner, having merely
taken in a manager to conduct the
business of the place, as he anticl-
pated a trip to Florida during the
winter season. Recorder Turton post
poned further hearing for a few days
to enable Jubet to give satisfactory
evidence to substantiate his statement.

oyner of a white bulldog, while
Timothy Manning, white, who lives in
Liberty street near the bridge over the

involved in a controversy over a ham
bone today, and it resulted in Gordon's
dog getting a grip on Manning's pup
that the latter was unable to shake off.
The pup was rapidly getting the
worst of the argument, and it seemed
as IL the animal would be chewed to
pieces. when neighbors ran to the spot,
armed with clubs n other weapons,
and beat the bulldog away. There was
much excitement in the vicinity while
the fight was on.
