The Beialtof the Institute- Ivever before in the history of the Carbon County Institutes have the nco- plo of the community manifested so much interest in its sessions as was done last week. The large School Hall was well filled at all the sessions and on i-ev- cral occasions in the afternoon and eve ning the hall would scarcely accommo date all that desired entrance. Th hearty support of the citizens encour aged the teachers and instructors and livened up the institute. Wo feel cer tain that the excellent-work done last week lias materially advanced tho cause of education In tho county. Although theSuv't had to pay largo prices for Ids instructors and lecturers, yet tho very largo attendance of citizens at the evening lecturers has made tho Institute a grand financial success, for the Sup't. reports a balance of $02 in his lianib after paying tho expenses of this year's institute, and a balance of $02 51 n Ids hands after paying the shortage of last year's county and local Institutes.

Prof. E. O. Lytc, of the Mlllersvllle State Normal School, was Introduced and received a hearty wclcom6, as was shown by the generous applause. The prof, spoke upon tho "First Lesson in Language." The teacher's language should bo uxomplary, tho little children do largely as they see their teacher's dp, hence, if the teacher U very correct In ills language he sets a good example for his pupils, hi written work, the teach er snouiu oe nareiui to require careful work. Careful work means careful woikers. Miss Hoss then continued her talk upon Kindergarten work, which she very delightfully Illustrated by a num ber of blocks and work done by children under six years of age. A recess of ten minutes followed, in which the teachers, esDcclally the ladies, came forwanl and examined the kindergarten work ex hibited by Miss Ross. After a piece of music Dr. Hrooks nddresscd the insti tute and took the occasion to answer a number of very important questions asked by the institute. The last half hour of tlie morning session was taken up In a discussion of Grammer.Jlts ob jects, fcc, by Prof. Lyte. In teaching grammar, language shouldbethcobjcct. We want to learn to speak correctly.and tills can be done only by a close obser vation of what correct language is. THUnSDAY AFTEltXOOX. Tho Institute was called to order, and the superintendent made a few remarks expressing his gratification at the large attendance of teachers, directors and friends the largest attendance an In stitute lias ever had in the county. After a piece of music, Dr. Brooks con cluded his talk upon tho subject of "l'sycliology in the teachers profession." The cultivated mind may be compared to a fallow field. It may'hemade fertile by plowing, harrowing and fertilizing, and again plowing, harrowing and fer tilizing. Plow up the mind by hard problems In mathematics; harrow it with complex and dllllcult constructions In grammar; fertilize It with choice gems ot literature aim sow tne seeds of good deeds and actions. Thus may the mind bo cultivated. Miss Hoss then took up the subject of Primary Teaching, and gave the Insti tute another excellent talk. The lady nouiu icacn me pupns uurinc tne llrst year without the pupils having any book at all. Teach pupils from objects, and make the examples as nearly practical as possible. A recess of ten minutes was taken after which followed music. "Soft music is stealliiL'." Prof. Lvte then took up the subiect of "Morals and Manners." The prof, dwelt at some length upon tills most Important subject, and gave the lnstlute some ex cellent hints about the cultivation of the moral clement in our schools. TIItTItSDAY nvoisa, Lon" before the tlmo for the lecture of the evening it became evident that the hall would not be large enough to hold the large audience, and when the time for the lecture arrived scarcely standing room could ho had. Al 8 o'clock the largest audience that ever met in the hall was ready to hear the lecturer of the evening, Col. L. F. Copcland, of Harrlsburg, on the subject of "Handsome People." The lecture was preceded by a vocal duett bv Mrs. Snyder and Mrs. Durllng which was well rendered. '1 ho lecturer was then introduced and spoke for nearly two hours, after which a double quartette was sang by Misses Obert and Klstler, Mrs. Snyder and Mis. Diirlinc. and Messrs. Koons.

Prof. Lyte then took mi the subiect of "Participles and Infinitives." This most dllllcult subject In grammar was simplified to a great extent In themlnds of tho teachers, by a very excellent talk, which the teachers appreciated as was shown by the generous applause which greeted the speaker at the close of the lecture. Miss Hois then continued her talk nn teaching arithmetic in our nrinnuv schools, which she vcrv liannl v Illus trated by the use of concrete objects in the form of blocks. lhe Institute then took up the subject ui ii piace oi meeting next year.

Prof. Lyte again took the floor and con cluded ins taut on tho subject of "Par- ucipies aim iniinitlyes," which dllllcult suujeci ne cleared up to tho great satis faction of many of the teachers. After a piece oi music, Miss Hoss again took up the subject of "Number and Form," and with the members of the Institute as a class, she very nicely brought out the idea of form, by simply folding a piece of paper In an almost innumerable number of ways; which interested the insiuma very much. Prof. Lyte was then called upon to give another talk on "Manners" in ccnooi. Oood manners are a part of h"uu inurais. i ne nrsi lessons in mor als. Teach pupils to have a neat, tidy personal appearance. Children learn much by Imitation, hence the teacher should be a living example; he should be neat and tidy In dress, polite in man ners, and pleasant and agreeable In dis position, Tills was the last talk the prof, gave the Institute, and tills, as all his other talks, was n. icilc.il unit in n, point, as was shown by tlie marked at tention given throughout the week.

J. Fhaxk Baiiil, Principal of Schools. Saved by a Little Girl. Tho crew of a coal train on the Lehigh Valley Ihiliroad had a sensational escape from death at Yatcsviilc, Schuylkill county, Tuesday morning. The work ings of Fowler's Colliery caved In during the previous night and caused tho sur face to subside for two hundred yards over which the railroad runs. The bottom of the cavc-in canuot bo seen and an attempt to fill up the breach was attended with so little success that although ninety car-loads of earth were dumped Into it the holo appears to be still as deep and wide as ever. Near the spot where the cavcrin occurred lived a family named Brohony, who during the nlgnt were driven in fear from their house to a neighbor's outside the affected area. At an early hour Tues day morning little Maggie Urchony.agcd ten years, while fetching water, heard a train coming, ran to tho track and, by frantically waving her cap across the track, succeeded In stopping the train close to the brink of the cave-in. When tho train bands midc an investigation and discovered their narrow escape they mane tne child a handsome reward for her tlioughtfulness and the facts have been reported to headquarters.
