MIKEBONNETT'S ' SON A TRUANT The Father Gnve the Boy a Severe Flogging nnd the Youngster Causes His Father's Arrest: nett Will Send the Boy to a -Bon- Be- formatory. Mike Honnett, the man of trouble, Is again In the hands of the law. Mlfe Is probably as well known In nldermanlo circles as any man In the city. He seems to have an unfailing affinity ,for trouble, and scarcely n fortnight rocs by but there Is something doing with Sllko oh one of the central fig ures. Yesterday, Mike was held under $300 ball by Alderman Atkinson for his ' appearance at court to answer to the charge of beating his son. ( It "seems' the boy, who Is about 1G years of age nnd has been making almost as good a record as his father, took It into his head a couple ot weeks ago to depart from the paternal roof. Gathering a few "traps" Into' big lmn lana handkerchief, the lad vamoosed. i- Ha made a trip through the lower end of the valley and wus not seen at the ' Bonnett home ngaln till Sunday. Ills mother hugged the truant to her bosom and called him all sorts of pet names. The lad expected the same ef fectlonato reception from his father, but In this he was" disagreeably disap pointed. Bonnett senior did not ap prove ot his son's conduct and deter- mined to express his disapproval in a , manner more emphatic than mere words. ' Honnett junior was stripped and . shortly after tho neighborhood was startled by tho hoy's shrieks of agony nnd cries for mercy. The neighbors . say that the Irate father used u hand sleigh runner with which to chastise his son. The boy endured the flogging , for a time, and then, with a wild shriek which would put to shame a Digger Indian, dug out for the swamp. Sometime later the mother wended her way thither with the lad's clothes. Many people In the vicinity were highly wrought up over the doings. The boy exhibited ugly marks of the beating he received and complained loudly. Several of them went before Alderman Atkinson and there Informa tion was lodged which led to Honnett's arrest. At the hearing, Mike1 protested against his retention, claiming that he had a right to chastise a naughty, way ward, wilful son. The alderman ad mitted his right as head of the family to Inflict reasonable punishment on the boy, but from the murks on the boy's body and the testimony offered decided that Mike had gone beyond even a parent's privilege and placed Bonnett Under ball to appear at court and In the meantime keep the peace toward his son. Bonnett says that his son is a very bad boy and that he has got beyond parental control. He proposes there fore to place the lad in some Institu tion where he will be taught a code of morality higher than that which ho seems to have been taught hitherto. BROKERS IN CAMP.
