The thlrly-ievsnth annual session at lbs
Laneaster county teachers' Institute wai
opened at tbe mart house te-day. Tela
morning wu Uken np lathe enrollment el
teacher and np te neon tbe number en the
rella was 651 tetebers and 75 who we
re'. teieher. Tbe secretary and bla as
sistants were kept baiy all morning, bat
everything wte se arstematleally arranged
that then waa no een fusion, Aa each
teeeber wu enrolled ha or ahe received a
card, tbla waa preasnted te Mr. Yeeker and
his assistanta and aeata were secured ler the
evening lectures.
Theinatltute waa formally opeeed thle
afternoon with an addreia by County Super
lntendent Breeht. He aald:
Yeu are familiar with tbe faet that there
la a general feeling in tbe publle mind that
teachers' Institutes sre net success, Met
a few ate disposed te go a step further and
proneunoe thorn a failure. While etbera
snrienely doubt tbe wisdom of closing the
schools and spending time and money te
consider tbelr Interests In a general conven
tion of the teachers. These different opin
ions de net arise from nothing. Tbeyare
grounded upon several things directly con-
-...mwu nun no KluniU M1U lUlIHjn Ol U38
publle sobcels.
Tbe first source of opposition
arises from tbe singular prejudice
still bti bored by some Individuals
and communities against tbe schools
and their usefulness. This spirit
of antagonism te the cobeols naturally
breeds a spirit of war against a teaeaeta' In
atitnte whose primary object is te promote
educational work. These maloententa are
few In number, yet have sufficient voice in
some localities te rxelte a suspicion and
"tens of small talk" against the object of
their attack.
A second and mere pepularclement may
be found wboae faltb fn tbe schools 1 or
thodox but wbese sentiment la against
teachers' institutes. The peculiar view
which Is held by this portion of our people
la but seen when it la remembered that
wblle it believes the school as necessary as
tbe eburcb, law, medleine, or oemmeroe,
BUP'T. IT. J. BRKOHT.
yet it sanctions meetings and associa
tions of all these bodies until It
reaches tbe teachers when te the sur
prise of any reasonable mind its moral
courage falls and Jt preaches a ernsade
sgalnst tbe felly and extravagance of teach
ers engsgl ng in a practice which It approves
as oemmendable and Important for sll
ether professions. Mew It would puzzle
tbe ordinary mind te discover anything in
logic or etbies why teachers in their pro
fession Bheuld net be sccerded the same
privileges that are granted without ques
tion or veto te ether lines of labor and liv
ing. But tbe little mother wit that we all
iunerlt In oemmon Is suifie'ent te explain
tbe distinction made In pointing it out aa
tbe arbitrary ruling of a surviving preju
dice. Here the matter would naturally rest
were It net for tbe faet tbat back of the pre
judice several sources are discovered that
feed and pamper it te a certain extent The
most Influential of these Is a complaint
against tbe value of Institutes that is en
couraged if net dlreeted by the members
themselves. Wltbeut any particular griev
ance there seems te be a disposition or a
most unfortunate bablt frequently among
teachers te disparage tbe eflerts and the
Instruction of tbe Institute and te convey
the Impression abroad by speech or ao'.len
tbat ita geed results may be honestly
denbted. Me motive may exist te hsrm or
prejudice tbe cause, yet en tbe principle
tbat we rely upon tbe physician te diagnose
tbe disease or the attorney te knew tbe
quillets and technicalities of tbe law or the
minister te expound tbe principles el
Christianity with authority, se tbe publle
expects a teaeber te knew mere ana talk
wiser about teachers' institutes than any one
e'se. Therefore It fellows tbat every mem
ber or an institute Is challenged with the
significant fact tbat he is responsible In a
larger degree for its moral and financial
support than any one outside of tbe mem
bership. The application of tbli simple
faet abeuld caution members against
the bsnelul praetlce of promlseuous
comments where sueb grave Interests
as tbe welfare of the publle
schools Is at stake, and furthermore ahenld
Impress them with tbe spirit and example
whieb the members of every successful
fraternity must pledge themselves te put
into its business and record. Unless ite
feeling is shared in common tbat tbe In
stitute's light la eaeh and everjece's
fight, there Is of necessity a vague sense el
responsibility and lndillerent ambition for
improvement.
Objectionable features are found in the
management and exercises of these bodies.
These mnst be corrected by the numbers.
Bat tbls should be done by Judicious criti
cism, In tbe way open te all exeeutiye
bodies and net by agitating It In plaees
where It ferments only a spirit ofsntsgenlsm.
Free and unresirleteu criticism given at a
time and place wben Its value can be tested
la alwajs wholesome and in order. And
every healthy, Intelligent organization
aa we claim a teachers' Institute te
b, never shuns, but always invites
honest criticism frcm til sources;
bat It Is a serious blunder te mistake tbe
tbengbtless talk and gossip wbieh pulls
down and blocks the wsy of progress for
tbe open, manly criticism tbat seeks te
build up.
A third ereund of orpesltlon te teachers'
Institutes is the claim that the character of
tbelr work Is net what it should be. If
tbese critics tre asked what It should be,
the answer Is some glittering generality
that is as clear as the Sphinx's riddle. It
Is safe te ssy. however, tbat tbls notion Is
held largely because tbe nature of tbe work
te be done and of tbe work done at tbese
meetings Is net understood, nor Is It aa
easy te understand as tbe gain and less In
any ordinary business transsctlen. it
would be a strange proceeding tbat would
enable a man who baa only given Inci
dental thought te a matter te knew mere
about or even as mneb aa tbe man who baa
given bla whole time and thought te
ihe subject, Yet tbls Is the point In
tbe criticism; tbe individual who gives
his lervlces te tbe cause Is called te account
by another who occasionally leeks that
way. However, it Is admitted, and obeer ebeer
fully admitted, for Institutes claim te be
progressive, tbat tbe work at teaehetV con cen con
vintleas is net wbatweexptet It te be in
future, but this critlelsm applies with equal
feres te all public bodies, and hence If they
are entitled te the confidence and support
of the publle wby sbeuld teachers' institutes
be crowded eat of the king's highway into
tha weeds ?
As already Implled.the Ideal teachers' In
stitute has new been held and what la still
batter, It never will be held. Yet this fact
be Masen te be disaeurBKtdt no te Jeel

out the way. It this thing were
a millionth part a easy aa son

Perhaps it ts Bearer the truth when we
remark that there la net be much wrong
with tbe ehsracter of the work as with tha
spirit la which It la eftea viewed and
received. Tha modest ratad which seeks
te knew mere because 11 feels the need or
it will find ample prevision te gratify Its
laudable purpose, white the Pharisaical
humor tbat comprehends the whels and all
the amendments will return home be
wleer than It cam a. Let net any of ns

years therefore It Is ae longer of any help

Congress Id Doubt,
A careful recapitulation of tbe authentic
returns se fsr received from tte oongres eongres oengres
slonsl elections gives tbe Democrats 1G1
dlstrlets, tbe Republicans IDS, and
leaves 6 doubtful, namely : First dlstrltit
of California, Thompson, Dem., and Da.

Miles, Rep, and Heymeur, Dem. ; Second
Louisiana district, Elliett, Dem., and Colo Celo Cole

Dem., and Wheeler, Rep ; Ninth North
Carolina district, Johnsten, Denufc and

It tbe Republicans carry five et these six
districts they will have 103 votes, which la
a bate msjerity. If tbe Democrats carry
two of the six tbey will have 103 vetes, aud
tbe msjerity. It is therefore, tbe closest
Congress tbat bss been seen for some time,
end the only one for years tbat has con

A Hetel K.tper Wounded While

Along Ihe Street.
Jehn Gnrzsnbauser, pioprleter of the
Seventh Waid hotel, at Rockland and Lew
streets, had a rather singular experience en
Sunday evening. He waa walking along
Seuth Lime street, near Locust, snd wis
Just passing a let which is filled with high
rank weeds. Suddenly he felt something
strike blai In tbe calf of tbe leg. Be
also heard a nolte behind but, pay
ing little attention, walked en. He
seen felt something warm trlekllng
down his leg, and taking ctfhla beet found
tbat It was full of bleed. He rolled up his
psntaleans aud saw tbat be bad received
an ugly looking out In the leg, which waa
bleeding freely. It was about three Inches
in length and quite deep. It waaafterwarda
sewed np by Dr. Albright. It was dsrk
when Mr. Qunzenheuser get his wound
and It is likely tbat some eue bad laid In
Will for him at this point with the Intention
of killing him. They were net successful
although a painful wound was eaused.
A Narrow Escape.
Edward Leber, of Kphrata, had a narrow
escape from death this morning. He was
driving a four-berse team and waa ensuing
tbe railroad track at Epbrata. Net noticing
tbe spprescb of the passenger trsln from
Reading, some of tbe passengers at the
station saw Mr. Leber's dsnger and called
te him. Fortunately for him he did net
lese his presence of mind. The horses
were already en tbe trsck, wben by a great
effort, he pulled tbe horses te the side of
tbe track, and tbe train pasted by wltbln
two feet of them. The sudden turn of tbe
horses caused the tongue or tbe wagon te
snap, but that was the only dsmsge done.
