There has been so much comment on
the recent whipping of Perry Howard
in the 1'lerco street school that a BKE
reporter yesterday sought an interview
with Mr. J. IJ. Atkins , a member of the
school board , to ascertain if possible just
what the animus of that body was con-
concerning the matter. To a query as
to what the board intended to do , Mr.
Atkins replied :
"There has boon no complaint made
to the board , therefore it has made no
investigation. All that bus been said
or done lias boon individually , so all
I can give you is my own opinion , and
not that of the boiu'd. "
"What do you think nboutthe charges
of 'brutal clubbing' that have been made
in connection with this caseV"
"I think that the boy got a good
spanking , and undoubtedly feels rather
wire. There has been considerable till If
about the 'club. ' Have you seen itV
No ? Well , it is about a yard long , and
Mr. Hell says it weighs six ounces.
It is claimoil to bo a 'dangerous
instrument , ' and it is , without any
doubt. If it should bo rammed
down u pupil's throat or poked Into his
eye , it would cause serious trouble , but
ho would any stick that might bo pro
cured , and for that reason it is a dan
gerous instrument. If it were made of
pine it would break at the first stroke.
We have sent it back to boused as here
tofore , and we would not have done so
had we believed that it was lee severe.
The schools of this city are in an excel
lent condition , and I don't want the people
ple to receive an erroneous impression
in regard to them. There are about
two thousand live hundred pupils now
enrolled , and this term is about half
completed. This is the first complaint
that has reached our ears , and I think
that is doing remarkably well. There
is no question but what the discipline
of the schools mu t be maintained , and
it has been demonstrated that to do so
there must bo recourse to punishment.
Wo tried it here for a while without it ,
but it was recalled. There was a case
last year of a man who made a terrible
row because his boy was whipped
in school , but this year the
'joy is larger and is getting
to bo almost too much for the
old gentleman , and ho now comes to us
and asks us to help him control his son.
There are several ugly boys in the
schools , and some of them have drawn
knives on tho.teachers. . . What would
you or I do in' such a caseV This same
Miss Harris carries a scar on her hand
vhero a boy hit her , and at one time it
vas considered very serious We can't
uluirge a teacher just because some-
mo is dissatisfied. See how many pow-
jrs there are above us who could
oinstato her. Wo must have good
auso , and in this case I think there is
tone. Mr. Lynchurd has been very
jontlemanly anil pleasant , although
ather persistent , and I have no doubt
Ml what he will see things differently
vhcn he gets a little cooler. We wish
, he pupils to inform their parents of
vhat goes on in school , but they must
lot threaten their teachers. 1 think
, he affair will be amicably settled with
ittlo further controversy. "
It appears that Mr. Atkins' hope that
, ho matter would be amicably adjusted ,
s not in a fair way to bo realized. The
. .rate stop-father of Perry Howard is
still on the war-path , and he's secured
in alliduvit from another paren who
jlaims to have had a child whipped too
lOvercly. The following istheallldavit :

Willie Uutilap , who Is nt this time of the : IRO
of twelve years. That for sonic tiino past I
lave been Bending said boy to the Pierce
Street school in this city , and Unit lie has
jccn under the immediate tuition uuil super
vision of Miss He'll. That th o
weeks ago the coming Wednesday , my
said boy failed to fully prepare himself
Tor the usual weekly literary exercises , and
; hut for salil offense his teacher , Miss Hell ,
lunished him lifjh'ly , in the presence of Miss
Hun-is and Miss liuehel ; that this punish
ment not appearing to satisfy Miss Harris ,
she took the ruler from Miss Hell nnd con
tinued the punishment to sueh u degree that
the child was so physically disabled that for
a period.of three days thereafter ho was unable -
able to sit down without ( jreat pain ; and was
compelled to stund at the table while eating
nis meals. That his limbs and hips were so
Deateu and bruised as to bo black and blue ,
extending to the knee-joints. This statement
Herein made us to the facts of the child being
whipped and by whom so whipped is upon
the statements made to mo at Urn time by my
said boy ami his sister , who is ten years old.
Hut the testimony as to the bruises upon the
person of the boy , the extent mid effect
thereof are of my own personal knowledge.

Mr. Lynchard has filed with the board
a formal complaint of the case of Perry
Howard , and demanded the suspension
of the teachers , the following being the
document :
To the Honorublo Members of the Board
of Kducutlon ( Jcntlcmcn : I desire to make
u formal complaint to your honorable body of
' of cruul urul ' llhiblo
u I'UHO 'unjust punishment
iatlieted by two of tlio teachers of the public
schools upon one of 'ho pupils. The punish
ment and the instrument used to accomplish
it I consider to bo unjustifiable and out of
place , in any public school , and decidedly
wrong in the splendid public schools of this
city , of which yon are the guardians. I desire -
sire to bo called upon for either un oral or u
written statement df the case before the
wholu board , or n committee selected for that
pur | > oso. 1 desire to havu submitted to the
whole board the Instrument which I am
pained ami surprised to learn has been long
used for the purpose of iullicting bruises on
the tender llcsh of little children. I desire
uNo to mibmlt the accompanying utlidavit
concerning another and parallel case of un
just severity , sworn to by the father
of the child. Hoth of these offenses
were committed by the same teachers , Miss
Harris and Miss liuehel , employed in the
Pierce street school. 1 dc ire whatever op
portunity may bo necessary to enable
mo to fully sustain the demand I now make
that tlio.two teachers bo susieiided from
their positions as teachers In the public
schools , and that the "paddlo" of the danger
ous proportions of the ono in evidence shall
bo hereafter , by special order of thu board ,
excluded from thu nubile schools , and that
other ami loss brutal methods of inflicting
punishment upon refractory pupils bo substi
tuted. Yours Most Sincerely ,
