THE BOARDING SCHOOL SCANDAL- EXAMINATION OF THE PRISONER. At the Stratford County Police Court on Saturday mornm: Henry Barwick Skdlings, aged 41, of Clifton House School, Church road, Ley ton, was charged, on remand, before Mr. H. Ford Hartley, Mr. A. Lister, and Mr. J. Spicer, with having unlawfully assaulied Mary Ann Hyams, on or about the 6th of "December, 1881, in the parish of Leyton. He was also further charged with assaulting Sabina Simons, Julia Simons, Amelia Simons, Florence Hyams, Mary Jane Thew, Selina Thew, and Maud Brown, on or about the same date, at Clifton House School, Leyton. The informa- tion upon which the defendant was charged, described him as a printer and bookbinder, but he had been accustomed for some years to preach at Nonconformist chapels, and is a deacon at the Leyton Congregational Church. The ages of the children named in the information range from nine to 17; some of them had been at the school for three years, and the shortest period for which any one had been there was n-ne I months. The school was kept by Mrs. Skithngs, the wife of the defendant, who bad only IS pupils, and her husband assisted in the school work to some extent. Mr. Atkinson represented the prisoner; and the ca5c for the police was in the hands of Detective-inspector Glass. The Chairman, before proceeding with the exmina. tion of the witnesses, said that on the previous day sufficient evidence to justify a remand had been taken only. The charge was then read over to the prisoner, who pleaded not guilty. I, I Inspector Glass said that no doubt the case would be taken up by the Public Prosecutor. The Chairman: Then we will go as far as you think fit to-day. The Chairman ordered all witnesses out of court. Mr. Atkinson abo asked that all witnesses should leave the court, and after giving evidence they should be compelled to remain in court. The Chairman here intimated that the case would be adjourned until that day week, after they bad heard sufficient evidence. At the adjourned hearing ¡ the matter referred to by Mr. Atkinson could be con- sidered. The first witness, Mary Ann Hyams, was then called I snd sworn. In reply to the Chairman, she said—I was twelve years old on the 18th of July last. Mv father lives at Ivy House, St. John's road, Dalston. His name is George Hyam. I have been a boarder at Clifton House School, Leyton, since the 24th of March, 1879. The prisoner came to the school in May, 1879. I had been there six weeks with a previous governess when he came. He has been at the school ever since. The Chairman: Now tell us what was the first thing that happened between you and the prisoner. Witness: I cannot remember the exact date, but! think it was in the schoolroom about six weeks after Le came to the school. The Chairman: Were you alone in the schoolroom at the time? Witness: No; there were others there at the time. The Clerk: Well, tell us what occurred then. Witness: The prisoner took me on his lap and be- haved improperly to me. The Chairman: What was the next thing which occurred? Witness: As far as I can remember I think it was IMt Easter, and I think the young ladies were in the school room then. The Clerk: Having got so far, suppose you tell TIS what happened three weeks before the 22nd of Decem- ber last year. Now what occurred then? Witness: We were doing some sums. I wTas in the school room; it was the lesson hour from 7 to 8 p.m. on Friday. Miss Amelia Simons asked Mr. Skillings it he would correct the sums and see if they were right.

He took my hand and lifted me on his knee and behaved improperly. I tried to get away. Miss Simons then called me to supper, as it was supper time.

I did not ted my futhei. but I told my sister on the Saturday belo-e New Year s Day. Inspector Glass here said that the witr.e s had no mother, which accounted for her telling her ehier sister. The Chairman: Have you any other female rela- tions at home besides your elder sister? Witness: No. The Chairman; Did anything of the kind happen after the 6th of December and before you went awav on the 22nd? Witness said that nothing occurred. Mr. Atkinson then proceeded to cross-examine th witness, which be did at great length. Mr. Atkinson: You sa.,d this happened about three weeks before the 22nd December?

Yv'ith whicn hand ?—With the right hand. How long were you upon his knee'—About ten mniutes. Did you object to what he was doing?—Yes, I did. In w at way?—I aid not tell him anything. W no suggested that you should be examined by a doctor?—I do not know. I went to my aunt's and the doctor was there waiting. When was that? -The same week that I told my sister. Do you recollect telling your sister, Sophia, that the last term was the happiest you had ever spent at the school?—Yes, it was owing to the entertainments v hich Mrs. Shillings bad taken us to.

LIEBIG'S EXTRACT OF MEAT AND MALT WINE (COLEMAN'S.) TESTIMONIALS. SIR,-A short time since I was induced by the novelty of the title to send for a bottle of your Liebig's Extract of Meat and "ait Wine. I was perfectly acquainted with the value of the Extractum Carnis, and not quite a stranger to the in 7igorating and fortifying properties of malt wine, and, therefore, felt a natural curiosity to teEt them when combined. Men who work hard as I do, not muscular hard work, but that which is quite as exhausting, viz., brain work, very often experience the need of, and have sometimes, an almost irresistible craving for a pick me up," and very often the panacea for a time, for lassitude and that state of miud which renders work irksome, are alcoholic stimulants, the use of which must sooner or later end disastrously. The man who can furnish a remedy sure, certain, and harmless, for the lassitude which follows constant brain work is a benefactor of his species, and may be said to have added many years of usefulness to the lives of use- ful men. Your extract, if a success, and when more generally known, will be used by all toileis of the mind. Yours faithfully, O. D. Ray. Thorpe Hamlet, Norwich, February 23rd, 1881. LIEBIG'S EXTRACT OF MEAT AND MALT WINE (COLEMAN'S) Queen's Crescent, Haverstock HiIl London, March 5th, 1881. DEAR SIR,-Some time since, being greatly fatigued with over-work and long hours at business, my health (being naturally delicate) became very indifferent. I lost all energy, strength, and appetite, and was so weak as to be scarcely able to walk. As you are aware I sent tor a dozen of your Extract of Meat and Malt Wine, which, in a few days, pulled me up marvellously. Three or lour glasses of it daily have quite altered and restored me to better health than ever, without the assistance of a doctor." I am now giving it to my son twelve years of age, whom we have always thought consumptive, and from a puny ailing boy he seems to be fast growiug into a strong healthy lad. Enclosed you have cheque. Please send me two dozen of the Extract," With thanks for your prompt atten- tion to my last. „ Yours truly, I am, Sir, GEORGE A. TYLER. LIEBIG'S EXTRACT OF MEAT AND MALT WINE (COLEMAN'S).

At a meeting of South Staffordshire and East Worcestershire colliers at Dudley, on Saturday, the men decided to accept the sliding scale pro- posed by the employers, which gives an advance of one penny per day to thick coal miners, and one halfpenny to thin coal workers. Mr. Ashmead Bartlett, M.P., speaking at the Middleton Conservative Club on Saturday, said Mr. Chamberlain bad amassed a quarter of a million taken from the sweat and toil of the work- ing classes.

MUTUAL REFERENCES.—A story, which is well authenticated, reaches me from the northern part of the country, and which has its lesson. A gentleman who manages his own estate, net in- considerable, had a farm to let, a fact lie an- nounced through the ordinary public channels. Amongst other applicants was Mr. T who came from a distance, and who, having viewed the farm, and ascertained the terms and the money, saw the landlord, and agreed to all that was required on his part. The landlord men- tioned that, before the agreement was signed, it would be necessary to have a reference. Cer- tainly," said Mr. T-, and the names of several respectable people having been given, that day week was fixed for concluding the business. Accordingly the parties met at the appointed time at the Castle, and after the usual civiiities- which were of marked corlialitv on the landlord's part—Mr. T- inquired whether the references were satisfactory. "Ob, ven," said the land- lord; I suppose we may consider the business i)c. said Mr T-, I'm glad you found my character right, hut while you have been inquiring about mine, 1 ve Leen inquir- ing about yours, and I find you ve got a d d bad one, so I'll have nothing to do with you or your farm."— lUreiord Journal. y BP.OWN'S was resi'.iv ?ue's fault. Nothing would co but she must, a party, and of coarse she must have ice cream. Now, the ice-cream thatonr cake shop man makes wasn't good enough for her, so she got father to buv an ice cream freezer, and said she would make the ice-cream herself. I was to help her, and she sent me to the store to ordei some alt. I asked her what she wanted of salt, and she said that you couldn't freeze ice-cream without plenty of salt, and that it was almost as necessary as ice. I went to the store and ordered the salt, and then had a game or two of ball with the and didn't get borne tilllato in the afternoon There was Sue tn"teEing the ice-cream an 1 sneering dreadfully s o she said. She had to co 1 dress righ; away, and told me to keep tui ice- cream free/.er til! it fro^e, and don't. 11,' c V and leave ma again, you good for notb:m; ov; I wonder how you could do it 1" I tumid that freezer for ever so long, but nothing v.0 freeze -so I made up my mind that it vvanteo rm re nalt. I didn't want to disturb anybody, so I qnieilv went info the kitchen and got the salt-cellar and emptied it into the ice-cream It begun to freeze right away: but I tasted it. and it awfully salt, so I got tho iug of golden syrup and poured about a pint into the ice cream, and when it was done it was a beautiful straw cciour. Bnt there was an awful scene when the party tried to eat that ice cream. Sue handed it round and said to everybody, This is my ice cream, and you mast be sure to like it." The first one she gave 1'. to was Dr. Porter. He is dreadfully fond of weream, and he smiled snch a big smile, and was sure it was delightful, and took a whole s■■oonful. Then be leaped up as if something ha,; hit him, and went out of the dcor in two jumps, and we didn't see him again- Then three more men tasted their ice-cream, and .-iunaped up and ran after the doctor; and two girls said, "Oh my!" and held their handkerchiefs over their faces, and turned just as pale. And then everybody else put their ice-cream down on the table, and said, "Thank you;' they guessed they wouldn't take any. The party was regularly spoiled, and when I tasted the ice-cream I didn't wonder. It was worse than the best kind of strong medicine. Sue was in a. dreadful state of mind, and wheu the party had gone home-all but one man, who lay outside all night, and. groaned like he was dying, only we thought it was cats-she made me tell her all about the salt and the golden syrup. She wouldn t believe that I had tried to do my best, and didn't mean any harm. Father took her part, and said I ought to eat some of the ice- cream since I made it; but I said I would rather go up stairs with him. So I went. SOl e of these days people will begin to understand at they are just wasting and throwing away a. boy who always tries to do his beat, and perhaps they will be sorry when it is too J.t. -—
