InUresting Items From Various Points in

Correspondents.
East Benton.
Week ago last Wednesday we were
visited by an old iashioned settled
rain.
The notices, stuck up, " Vote for
Monroe H. Kulp, of Shamokin, for
Congress," have turned yellow by rea
son of exposure to the weather.
After election they will turn blue, as
will also Kulp and his supporters, by
reason of being gulped by a handsome
Democratic majority.
Paternalism is fostered by the doc
trine of f rotection, while independence
and self reliance are fostered by the
doctrine of free trade. Selfishness is
the result of the former, while gener
osity and equality are the legitimate
fruits of the latter.
A few have finished husking corn,
while many in our locality have
scarcely begun.
"If the love of money is the root of
all evil, what must the trunk of all
evil be ?
Winter grain is already assuming
quite a harvest like appearance.
There was quite a strife for the po
sition of teacher in several of our
public schools this Fall. But since
the assignment of teachers we hear no
complaint from any quarter.
The question of bridges over our
small streams is assuming a satisfac
tory solution. There seems to be a
determination to supercede the old
wooden structures with stone bridges.
Yes, and hurry the thing along.
Why does " Kulp part his hair in
the middle?" Does he expect to
pait the vote of the 17th Congressional
district in the middle, and have the
Congressional fight declared a draw ?
Vote not for Kulp.
Last Saturday we called to see our
old friend, Rohr McIIenry, who re
turned a few days previous from
Rochester, where he had gone for
treatment and surgical operation in
the case of a cancer, from which he is
suffering. The excruciating pain re
sulting from such operation emaciated
hisfoim and appearance, but he has
rallied to a remarkable degree after
the ordeal. Patient and resigned in
his affliction he has the sympathy of
the entire community. Rarely we find
men so universally esteemed as Rohr.
He is possessed with a magnetism of
wonderful attraction, and while posi
tive in character, he is kind, courteous
and obliging to all wh whom he
comes in contact. We hope for his
speedy and complete recovery.
Time begins to tell on the veterans
of Democracy, in our and other lo
calities. We meet them at stated
periods, or times of Gubernatorial and
Presidential campaigns We looked
with wonder at the changes time has
wrought upon them since the last rally
in 1S92. While a few have advanced
to a great age such as Juc'ge Dm,
of Jackson, Jacob Welliver, of Ben
ton, John JC. Grotz, of Bloomsburg,
and others who were blithe and
young in our youth, are now classed
among the old men. Of the latter
class we mention John J. McIIenry,
H. F. Everett, Abraham Harunan,
Stephen Dresher ; and the 'country is
full of these Democratic veterans, who
are as lull of fight to day as ever be
fore in their life, and more determined.

light on historical subjects.
On Thursday nftcrnoon the School
Directors were present, it being Di
rcctois' day.
After singing, Miss Moore took up
the subject of " Reading," but pro
ceeded to talk at random, in her pe
culiar and vivacious way, upon Dr.
Gordy's " Psychology," St. Paul's ad
monition, to "prove ah things and
hold fast that which is good," and
finally remarked, " I am like Shake
speare when he said lie could easier
tell twenty people what to do than to
be one of them to obey."
" The Dead Line " was the subject
of the afternoon address by State Su
perintendent Nathan Shaeffer. He
remarked that teachers did sometimes
prematurely, by not avoiding the
" dead line." The inference to be
drawn is that many teachers, after
qualifying themselves, grow indifferent
about progressive school work, and, in
consequence, are dead to all interests
and purposes as teachers. He re
marked that " when a teacher can
learn nothing at these Institutes he is
surely approaching the dead line. It
pays the parent and teacher to know
about the nascent period of growth in
mind and body."
After song, by Mrs. Gottschall, so
well rendered as to receive applause,
Dr. Gordy spoke upon the " Educa
tional Agencies " of the past and pres
ent, remarking that the three great
agencies were the church, the state
and the school, anterior to the mid
dle ages the state was the supreme
agency, in the middle ages the church
controlled, while at present the school
is the greatest agency.
The evening exercises consisted of
an appropriate and well rendered en
tertainment, given by the Chicago Ri
vals, to an appreciative audience.
The closing exercises of the Insti
tute took place on Friday morning,
Rev. Mr. Brandt conducting the devo
tional exercises.
After brief remarks from Supt.
Johnston concerning attendance, cards,
&c, Miss Moore resumed het talk
upon " Reading." Without saying
just how it could be done, she re
marked, " we should teach once so it
would never be forgotten." That, of
course, would be first class teaching.
Mr. Schaiffer here again took the
floor and enlarged upon "distinguish
ing between the literal and figurative
use of a word.
After song, by the teachers, W. W,
Ileffner, of Centralia, read an instruc
tive paper on "Forestry." He was
followed by Prof. A. U. Lesher and
Mr. Boyd Trescott. The latter gave
an illustrated address that held the at
tention.
Reports being called for, the Audi
tors reported as follows : Receipts for

Teachers' Institute Resolutions.
Resolved: That we, the teachers
of Columbia county, in convention as
sembled, do hereby favor the enact
ment of the following school laws at
the next session of the Pennsylvania
Legislature.
First : A law providing that no
school books or apparatus shall be
adopted by any board of directors
without the consent of a majority of
the teachers and directors in the dis
trict in which the said books or appa
ratus are to be adopted.
Second : A law providing that the
extra State appropriation shall only
be extended to such districts as shall
make their tax levy at least one and
one half times the amount of their
share of the entire State appropria
tion. Third : A law providing that at
tendance of pupils under seventeen,
in our public schools, should be com
pulsory, for at least sixteen consecu
tive weeks of each school year, and
for the remainder of the year, unless
engaged in some remunerative employ
ment. Resolved : That in order to bring
the foregoing resolution before the
Legislature a committee of three be
appointed by the County Superintend
ent. Resolved: That we hereby com
mend and endorse the work of our
County Superintendent of public
schools ; that we express our appreci
ation of the excellence of the instruc
tion and entertainment provided, and
most heartily commend the introduc
tion by the County Superintendent of
a graded course of study for our now
ungraded schools.
Resolved : That we commend the
recent establishment of a cooking de
partment by the school board of Ber
wick as a step in the right direction.
Resolved: That the Institute just
closed has been one of the best in the
history of the county, and that the in
struction undered has never been ex
celled in efficiency by any previous In
stitute. Resolved: That we endorse with
a sense of local pride the excellent
State Normal School at Bloomsburg j
that we commend the thoroughness
and practicability of the instruction
there imparted and extend our sincere
thanks to Dr. J. P. Welsh, its efficient
nincipal, for his kindness in permit

Fifth Annual Reunion. -Sludontt and Teachers
of tho Bloomsburg Normal School Have
a Good Time in Y. M. H. A. Hall.
Last Thursday evening between the
hours of 4 and 8 the graduates of the
Bloomsburg State Normal School held
their fifth annual reunion and banquet
in tne spacious apartments of the
Young Men's Hebrew Association.
The early part of the time was spent
in the large parlors on the second
floor, wiiere acquaintances were re
newed and school experiences and
escapades recalled and enjoyed. Grad
uates from the earliest classes and thee
of more recent years mingled freely
and chatted pleasantly of the old
school, which some declared now
deserves the name of l the new
school," because of its wonderful
growth and gieat improvements during
recent years.
lhe banquet was enioyed in the
large assembly room on the third
floor. One hundred and sixty persons
sat down to the four' large tables and
enjoyed the many good things pre
pared for them by William H. Housel,
the efficient steward of the school.
The feast wa3 pronounced by all the
best that had ever been served, and
Mr. Hous.-l is to be congratulated on
his success as a caterer and the school
is to be congratulated on having such
a man to look after the physical well
being of its students. Music was fur
nished by the orchestra of the school,
which is under the management of
Miss Rosa M. Haas, who is at the head
of the music department. The music
was of an excellent character, and
special mention should be made of
the violin solo of Max Stauffer, a
Luzerne County boy, who is now a
member of the senior class. His home
is in Hazleton.
The teachers of the school who
were present were Prof. William Noet
ling, Prof. Wilbur, Prof and Mrs.
Cope, Prof. Jenkins, Miss Smith, Miss
Haas, Principal Welsh and wife. It
must have done their hearts good to
see the enthusiasm of their former
students and feel the warmth of their
greeting.
There was little time left for toasts
after the banquet, as many desired to
attend the entertainment of the insti
tute. Principal Welsh spoke briefly,
by request, of the two new buildings
to be erected in the near future and
mentioned the fact that the music
department had grown to such an
extent that it is now tieing organized
into a regular conservatory and given
a building of its own.
Our townsman Granvi le J. Clark,
Esq., a graduate of the school, who
is president of the Luzerne County
Alumni presided gracefully as toast
master. l he success of the occasion, was,
in gteat measure, due to the efficient
services of B. F. Meyers, of Wanamie,
who is treasurer of the association.
Messrs. Clark and Meyers and Miss
Bessie Winterstcen were re elected,
president, treasurer and secretary,
respectively. Thus closed another of
the pleasant alumni gatherings to
which many of the teachers of Luzerne
county look forward from year to
year, with so much pleasure. When
it is considered that one third of all
the teachers of Luzerne county are
graduates of the Bloomsburg Slate
Normal School, it is not surprising
that this tnnual ga'hering during
institute week is a matter of so much
interest. Wilkes Rarre Record,

First The repeal of the Sherman

Third The passage of a tariff
