EVENING, NOV. 17,1008, iv , i " De Uie Institutes Pay 1 Seme of our cotcrepornrlea are dlscues Intf ttie question whether teachers' Insti tutes pay. Ne doubt they pay the tench crs, for they Deem te enjoy them ; but whetherdhey nre Instructed by them Bufflelently te be profitable te the public who bear their ce3t, is the real question. Theoretically they nre geed, nnd It they nre properly conducted I he theory should be sustained by the prnctlce. "We linve new experienced them for a number of years, nnd It they nre nreal beueflt, It should by this time hnve demonstrated ltself te theso who nre In position te J udge of the quality of the school teachers ' work, nnd whose duty It Is te de se for the pnbllc. In estimating their value, the easy Belt congratulation of theso who participate in them Is net te he taken Inte great cousldcratlen-cortalnly it is net te be deemed convincing proof of their utility. There Is tee great n disposition man ifeated en the part of the management of these institutes te provide mere cuter' talnment for the teachers. The even lng performances te which the teachers nre treated nre hardly Instructive in the line of their profession, nnd some of them.perhaps, in no line. They nre very well in their way, but tin school- should net be ndjeurned te enable their teachers te enjoy Helen Petter, Prank Beard, or even Judge Tourgce and Rebert Cellycr. Ner is it certain that theso features of the regular institute proceedings which nre most popular with Its members are most edifying nnd instructive. "We can easily understand hew they are benefited nnd instructed by the breezy speeches of Dr. High e, and the ripe experience of such veteran workers In the cause as l)rs. Wicker sbatn nnd Hroeks, but what direct relevancy te their work there is in con veying te them instructions for ergauiz ing n national bank or in dramatic readings, we have net been able te fathom. As has been previously suggested 1:1 thesocelumns, the one subject conspic uously neglected by this nnd most ether institutes, Is that of pri mary education ; and the necessity of having the best schools and the best teachers for that class of scholars nt whose tender nge the mind is most sus ceptible te impressions nnd of which the largest number of pupils enjoy the ad vantages of the common schools The Inquirer forcibly points out that the remissness of school b mrds in this direc tien is most notable right here in our own city ; and yet nobody who held membership in the institute and uobe ly who undeitoek te instruct or entertain it except, perhapj, Dr. Higbee, who thinks strongly en this subject called attention te this most pressing of all practical school questions. The Institutes no doubt de gecd ; they can be made te de much mere. Aitd it Is in this hope and with a view te save them from some popular re proach uet altogether undeserved Inte which they have fallen that we offer BOtne friendly suggestions. Fer It is net unreasonable te expect of the- leathers that they use all the time at their dis pes.vl,ln the week they are given for her association, in learning and practising things that will directly tend te their Improvement as teachers. The Conference In Heme. Much hits been said nnd written con cerning the ecclesiastical conference of tbe bishops of the Catholic church which is new In session in Heme. If all the rumors nre te he credited concerning the purpesn of this gathering, the Amer lean bishops will never return, ns a pre grarame extensive enough te comfortn cemfortn comfertn bly supply a few lifetimes of laborious service, has been mapped out by the wise correspondents. According te the latter, the conference will frame Jaws te check revolution in Ireland ; it will en deavor te persuade the United States government te establish the canon law as a basis for the relations of Church and State in this country ; It will discuss the ndvisablllty of having n papal nuncio an the official representative el the Vatican te the United Stain government; It will take strong ground ugniust that much cherished An.encun institution, the common school system ; and lastly, it will demand a larger liberty nnd less papal Interfeience in the affairs of the American church. In nil probability these many piebleuis which it is said the conference has been called te discuss, exist only in the fever cd imaginations of n few foreign cerreu peudents, who, after the nianuer of the Londen Central News Agency, expand a seven line telegram te n two column article. The truth of the matter would becui te b. that the cenference ha been summoned te con elder matters of purely church discipline: Possibly one of the most impeitant subjects en which action will be taken will be clerical financiering, tlie costly blunders of which in Cincinnati and Lwrence, Miu)S.,nre btlll fiesh in the public mind, bome legislation in this matter Is urgently needed and clerics tnuBtbe either taught llnance along with theology, or the trustee mnuageiuent of church funds must be inaugurated. Among ether subjects that me In crying need of seme fixed ruling is the vexed question of the removal of priests, ever which constantly conflicts of authority and consequent Ecandal nre occurring. The preposition te nllew the successor te a bishop te be selected by the diocesan priests, instead of the blshepa of the province as nt present, will also in all probability ceme In for its share of at tentien. These purely disciplinary mat ters imperatively demand legislation, and their importnnce is such ns te engage the entire attention of the con. ference te the oxclusleu of theoretical questions of merely civil polity and domestic affairs with which the Ameri can brunch of the Catholic church as a purely ecclesiastical organization is in no way concerned. Kky Helland wants a borough gov ernment. Why uet ? It has long since outgrown the proportions of a country village and the care of the ordinary township government. It is really the I oentre of n large, populous nnd wealthy I district of the county, nnd should as-1 sort its Importnnce by incorporation. "We understand thntn large majority of its most enterprising and progressive citizens favor such n step, nnd very naturally. It may for n tlme lucrease the taxes, but it will te n much greater degrce Increase the value nnd protection of property. It has n geed newspaper, a flourishing bank, ndequate population itn.l nll.nr Miiulltlne nf II lll.StlnCt tOnlt. Then why net the form of municipal organization ? It is gratifying te knew thnt the stntue of Gen. Jehn I'. Reynolds, Lan caster's illustrious soldier, seen te be erected In Philadelphia, Is te be set up in such a conspicuous place us en tl e north slde of the new public buddings, In full view from llrend street nnd the Pennsylvania railroad station. As the dmericau says : The north front, fac ing up Bread street, Is the principal one of the great structure, and there Is n clear space of ever two hundred feet from heuse Hue te houseline, the paved sidewalk in front of the public buildings being Itself ever seventy feet wide, se that the statue will have plenty of space nreund it, and with the granite base ns a back ground, will show hew nrcliilcc ture and sculpture nre complementary of each ether." There was seme danger that n motion would prevail te bide this work of art and deserved testimonial te a great soldier out In some quarter of the park where there would uet be ei.e te see It te a hundred who will beheld It where It Is new proposed te erect it. It Is a shame that the beautiful a::d e e pressive feuutalu erected during theceu tenulel by the Catholic total abstinence union is new left away out in a barren looking field, where It excites only I mg range curiosity as te hew it ever get there.

TEAOUERvS' INSTITUTE. Tin: ci.usr. or 'nut rueur.iciu.NU9. I'rer, Wlittn Conclude ids UUeenrse Ur( Hroehi'Ailtlrtat Lnt Werk el n .Siieccetlul Institute. Vridviy Afternoon, Instltute was called te order nt 2 o'clock and several pieces of nuisie worn ung, Art Urltlrlnm. Prof. Smith tuade a brief nddrcss ou art criticism in which he undo neuie valuable suggestions tcgarditig the subject and eon. position of pictures, the harmenising of colors, ntid the true principles of ciltiols ciltiels ing works of ntt. rnntMiuteiit tu tclieul. Prof. Whlte coneludod his discourse, taking up the subject of soheol punish ment. He said that ns long ns thore Is necessity for them there must be ruins for the government of the ndioel, these mien must be enforced and the penalty provided for their notation must be iutlietcd. The object of punishment 1h Htst te prevent wrong doing te make the pupil better, te amend him , seoetid te detcr ethers from wrong doing ; the third, te put the seal of condemnation en wrong doing. What should be theeharacteiistics of puu lshtneut te secure these thrce ends? First, It should be certain ; the certainty of pun ishmeiit is always mine effective than its severity; second, It should be just; its re latien te the ouense should be se evident that ovciyeuo can fcce it and say "that's right." The old schoolmasters continually violated this principle, their punishment was a blew for every effeuce, no matter uew ttigiaut or hew trivial. 1 he third characteristic of punishment l.s that It should ba natural or couscqueutlally, net artlllci.il. Hr. Whlte argued that the forfeiture of certain ptlvilcges enjoyed by the scholar Is a tnueh mero elTcctlve pre ventive of wrong deiug than corporal pun tshmcut. Suppose a boy uses profane lan guage en the playgreutid , If he is whipped for it he will be apt te say : "I must be mero caieful next tune, I must see that the teacher is u t within hear.ng." A better plan would be te say te lum, " you violated an important rule of the school; thcre must be no profanity ou the school ground; jeu cannot hcieafter go out at recess; you shall have a recess, but it must be by yourself, It will cot de te allow the ethor boys te hear your bad language-." I'he boy should then be kept iu during rcccs for as many days as may be neces sary, until he himself ms that he feels certain that he will net again commit the oftence. Se with the girls if two of them who nre greatly attached te each ether aud sit togethor iu soheol will persist iu talking, scparate thorn; tell them the ciuse, and keen them apart until you and they are certain they can overcome their inclination te talk. While Dr Wtute was much opposed te corporal punishment, nnd would aeid it wherever it is possible, he thought theso beards of directors who prohibit it, make a gr'at mistake. There nre cascj vhere it is uuaveidabls except by the expuliien el the pupil, and that Is a great deal werse then corporal puuishmcut. The bad boy mere than au ether needs the restraining nnd retlnlug influences of the school; he is entitled te an education, his pareuts may demand it, and tbe geed of the state demands it. Prof. White concluded by relating an In teresting case within his own knowledge where an unmanageable ocheol that had detlcd the authority of several teachers was brought Inte subjection by u lady teacher who thrashed eeven of them the first hour of tbe day and had no trouble wi h them afterwards. Music By the iustitute Adilrcis by Dr. KtlwnrU llroelii. Dr. Edward Broek, late principal of the Mtllcrsville normal school, was introduced by the county superintendent. Dr. Brooks, after thanking the instltute for the cordial maimer iu which it had greeted him, said that an eminent educator had refertcd te the work of the teacher as " the pure and beautiful thing knewu as teaching." Everything possessing great excellence el beauty is characterized nsart. Sculpture, painting anil ran.c are the embodlineut of the beautiful, n:ul ate therefere classed as the fine arts. Teaching also boleugs te the tine arts and among them all it Is the highest, the best, the most beautiful nnd divine The painter, the sculptor, and the mif can, each bive their ideals of beauty. Tne sculptor sees his ideal in the block of marble, and all he has te de is te ehip away the rubbish and reveal the living form. The painter sees unen the bare canvas the crcatieu of his genius, nnd embodies upon it as nearly as he can the divine picture his imagiua'nn has conceived. If the teacher be an n.tis, he tee must have his ideal, and his id ! must be education. And what is the de finitien of education ' Bome one have said "Teaching treats of all development of the powers of mau, and the furnishing his mind with knewledge " First, then comes the development of the activities of the mind, aud second, the furnishing of it And hew shall the mind be dovelopcd ? By culture Culture dovcleps everything te which it is applied; by It the sourest crab apples have been dovelopod into the choicest fruit; weeds have been davolepod Inte the most beautiful flowers; wild aul mals have been domesticated aud improved and the rce of man by culture has been raised from the 6avage te the civilized state. The child's mind, then, must be dovelopcd by culture, nud then furnished. Hew shall it be furnished ? Net as a heuse If furnished by Ailing it from the outslde, but by the nrt of the teacher whose mission it is te develop aud bring out the knowlcdge that U within The mind is net a cistern, into whieh water is te be potired until It is filled ; but Is rather a uevcr failing spring that gushes forth and flown onward forever. Te at tempt te furnish the child's mind from without is as If wr were te attempt te furnish the leafless trees with leaves and buds and flowers. We may indeed out leaves and flewers from various oelored paper, and with a world of treuble make a kemblancQ of rehabilitating the tree ; but it is only u transparent Bham, visible te all ; but if we wait till the warmth of sprlngtime draws the sap from the roots of the tree into the trunk and branehes, then the buds will swell, the leavos will appear, the tree will be clad In Tordure, the bloasems will open, nud the air will be filled with porume. Be of the mind of the child ; the kuowledgo is thore nud it Is by the art of the toaehor it is te be drawn out. Dr. Brooks speke of the great work of the masters he had Boen in the gallerica of Rome and Flerenco that had been the ndinirntlen of the world for centuries. Even these In tlrae must fade nud pass away ; but the soul pleturcs, the wer,k of the teachers, shall exist throughout oter. ulty and the great master, when he conies te gather in his jewels will say te the faithful Btewauls, " well dena geed and faithful servauta " , Musle " Beulali Land," "bhollsef the Ocean." Prof. DeGwiT made his closing nddrass. IIe did net confine hltiuelf te any single subject, but referred te several. IIe urged the teacher te de something aud then tell the ohlldreu what he had dene ; get tha niilidrrm tu de BamethiiiL'. and have thorn tell what they have doue. Tcaeh them to te spell well, lead well, vrlte well nud speak well ; glve them language Icaneus j assist them In openitiir up idea1, and wheu they get the idea let them exprcss it orally nnd thonwilteli out. Eneourage them In composition, glve them r.uhjcets of -thnv knew RnmcthlllL'. and don't de. of which as he did onee, when n young teaeher, Insist en en a boy writing a com i03ltlen when the boy did net even kuew what n composition was. Fer three days he had vainly ntrug. gled with the boy te compel him te write n composition, and at last turoateuod punishment. The boy flually presented the follewlugi 'Some pfople llke spring; seme like niunruer; some ilke fall, uud seme llke wlnter: but ns for me, alve me llbcrtver clvenin i) death I " The eifert was commended, nud the boy asked, "Is that n composition." "lcry said the tenoher. "0, 1 can wrlte n dcicu like that," said the boy. The teacher in ado the inlstake of net Riving the boy previous Instruction. Iu reading lessens, the teaoher should always toad the lessen mentally before leading it audibl ; tlrst get the thought nud the thought will coutiel the expression. Have the ohlldreu also read their lesions mentally befere at tempting te read them aloud. The child ren should have a hundred per cent mere leading matter thin they hnve ; glve them newspapers, fur they contain the dally history et the world ; the recent occurrences in every laud ; let them ic.id through nn entire plcoe be that it may be understood.
