A terrible accident happened at the Cambria rod mill on last Friday afternoon. Robert Lloyd was standing with his right side toward the "last pass" when a No. 5 going through struck him on the leg and went right through that member just above the knee, striking the bone. The rod was at a white beat, and tbe flesh was singed and roaseed In a sickening manner. Dr. W. B. Lowrasn was summoned and diessed the Injured member. Mr. Lloyd was then taken to his mother's home, corner of Walnut and Vine streets. It Is thought an artery was : severed by the rod In Its passage through the flesh.

Tbe WatchmiB mt Haws' Oment Hill Knocka II I m Ont. Mr. John Bowden, the night watchman j at Haws' cement mill, is positive that on the night of December 4th last be had some not ' very pleasant personal dealings with the man Frank Squires who was arrested at Harrisburg on Wednesday for the murder of Emory Thayer at North Danville, N. T-, several months since. Squires, it will be remembered, waa in the Harrisburg Hos pital suffering from what appeared to be a pistol wound back of the ear, which he said he had received during an encounter with a gang of colored men In Johnstown on Christ mas day. One day he walked out cf the in stitution without saying good-bye, and sub sequently his alleged connections with the Thayer murder was brought out, and a lucky constable succeeded In running him down. Mr. Bowden's story Is that on the Decem ber night referred to he fonnd a tramp lying asleep in one of tbe kilns at the brick works. He bad a hard time waking the fellow, and when at last the watchman did get him to his feet he rolled his eyes strangely and drew back as If to strike tbe man who had so rudely disturbed bis slumbers. Mr. Bowden had lu his hand a ;stoot walking stick, and the tramp had no sooner made the threatening demonstration than he lay down for another nap, which for a time ap peared as if it might continue forever. A blow on the head with the cane had knocked him insensible, and blood flowed freely from the wound. Mr. Bowden then sent for Officer Kelly, of Cambria, and on his arrival a wagon was procured and the injured1 tnU taken to tbe Cambria lock-up, being still unconscious. Mr. Bowden asked tbe officer what should be done. Officer Kelly said he would see the District Attorney about that in the morning. It seems, however, that the man came around all right during the night, and that he was given his liberty the next day, on condition that he would get ont of the town at once. Mr. Bowden says that when the man fell under his blow at the brickyard, five letters dropped out of his pocket, one of which had a heavy mourning embroidery. Mr. Bow den examined one of the letters, and saw the name of Squires. Officer Kelly told him several of them were postmarked North Danville. N. Y. Tbe man is described by Watchman Bow dfcn as young, weigtiing about 175 pounds, and well dressed, and as answering very well to the description given In the news papers of the 8upected murderer. The watchman would not be surprised did It turn out that the wound behind the man's ear was not a pistol wound, but the wound made by his -club, In which cold probably settled and kept it sore. Whether or not Squires had been identi fied at DanvIIe as the man wanted has not been learned. Johnstown Tribune, ifith. LORETTO LOCAL I.XSTITtTE.

On Tuesday evening Herman Hoffman, who resided In Cambria borough, was kil led a short distance west of Johnstown. He was walking on the track, and stepped off to avoid an approaching train, but when It came nearer he stepped back on the track and either fell or threw himself pros trate before the wheels, and was fright fully mangled and instantly killed. He was employed as a laborer by the Cambria Iron Company, was about fifty years of age, and leaves a wife and two children in very destitute circumstances, they having no food In the house and the wages of the deceased having been drawn up to date.

P., of Greensburg, received orders to go on a moment's notice, and are bnsy cleaning their guns and making preparations to go to the scene of trouble. The "Huns" have captured large quanti ties of powder, dynamite and nitroglycer ine belonging to tbe coal companies, and are threatening to destroy the coke ovens and other property of the companies unless their demands for higher wages are com plied with. A mass meeting was to be held on Thursday by the miners, in which speakers would address them in different languages. What the outcome of this strike may be cannot be predicted, and great fears are entertained that it may result in the destruction of much valuable prop erty and even Iocs of life. The Institute was organized by electing Mr. J. J. Scanian chairman and Miss Mattie Denny secretary. The hrst topic on tne progam, "Best Methods of Teaching Reading," was opened by Mr. A. J. Sanker, a teacher of Washing ton township. Mr. Sanker did not claim to be thoroughly acquainted with the best methods in use in our best schools, but would give what he considered the best methods used in bis school, in teaching primary reading the word and sentence method should be used. Reading charts are Indispensable for beginners. Short les sons; words at sight aod review often; would not read often for pupils. Pupils in primary classes should seldom criticise each other ; in preparation of lessons slates should be used ; copy difficult wortls and part of lessons ; pronounce words from slate at recitation. He would question pu pils about the lesson before reading ; drill on sounds of letters as well as words ; cor rect posture in class ; breathing and vocal exercises .are important. Pupils should be tanght to look from tte book" and properly observe pauses. The remarks of Mr. San ker were clearly and forcibly given and lis tened to attentively. The topic was further discussed by Messrs. Kaylor, Parrifch, Noel and Sup't Stray er. Ail advocated drill on difficult words of lessons, appropriate ques tions, and the proper thought, feeling and expression in order to baye intelligent read ing. The Use or Text Books In the Recita tion," was discussed by F. J. Parrish, Itsq who was followed by Harold G. Kaylor aud other teachers. Mr. Kaylor opened the question, "How Far Sboaid Teachers' xpianatlons Ex tend?" He began the discussion by asking the question, "What are the objects of ex planations?' They are not to require pu pils to merely commit to memory tulea and definitions. Jig metUal discipline or culture is acquired in this rnahher. ie teacher should eyer remember that every mental faculty ia not present in every mental ac tion. The true object of teachers' explana tions should be to strengthen and develop the mind. Explanations are only telps to the pupils and tbouid be given anly to create thought and invstigation. Pupils of differ ent abilities need help In different directions, aud trie teacbor should endeavor to create thought and investigation io the channel wheie most needed. The great objt-ct of education is to strengthen every faculty of the mind and encouiage original investiga tion on the part of tbe pupil, and the ex planation of difficult points In the lesson should only be directed by tbe teacher to this end. Mr. A. J. Noel spoke on 'How to Secure Attention." He claimed that tbe first thing necessaiy is to make the recitation interest ing. Train pupils by proper habits to be attentive. Conduct recitations in a varied manuer and do not become monotonous. Better close tbe exercise when pupils soemi wearied and are not attentive. Short les- j sons and recitations in primary grades and i not too long in other grades should be the j teacher's motto. Mr. Parrish followed and agreed with tbe sneaker in the points ad- 1 vanced, and added that it was one of the most Imoortant elements of suceessful teach ing, and that teachers who fail to have the attention of pupils lu recitations or explaoa tions would most surely fail In the gone r work or the .-chooi. Sup't Strayer gave the derivation of the wort "attention" and showed bow, In vari- us ways, the teacher may secuie the pro- J per attention of inatteotlve pupils.
