The opening address was delivered by Superintendent S.H. Heffman, of Columbia. This address, which sets forth clearly and ably the object and value of these annual nieetlngs and the necessity for the hlghest character as well as culture in teachers, is as fellows; Ladies and Gentlemen : Follow Fellow Follew tcachors of Lancaster county, city and Col Cel umbiaBy the invitation, or rattier at the request of the very able and worthy county superintendent, the chief-execullve of this institute, it becomes my duty an agreea ble ene te wolcemo you te this, the thirty eighth annual session of the Lancaster county teach e rs' institute It is with pleasure that I groet you after the labors ofanethor year. Whlle engaged in the performance of our respective duties In our Eeveral Ileitis of labor, we belong te three hoparate and distinct organizations. Her..', howevor, all distinctions are laid aside, and having the sumo objects and aims in low we meet us members of a common brotherhood, being actuated by the wine purposes and (rehires. We are prepared te sympathize with each ether in our dlilleultles and perplcxitles,er te rejoice with each ethor in our successes. It may be well at the very beginning of our oxercises te Inquire: Why are we horn? What are the objects of our meet ing T Why have the doers of hundreds of school rooms bce.i clesed, and why have thousands of pupils been released liem their dally tasks that we might have leis ure te meet here? It is that we may have an opportunity for the study of our profession under the guldunce of thoroughly competent instruc tors, and for the discussion of these prin ciples which underlle all true methods of instruction and te further prepare our selves te mcet all the responsibilities that dovelo upon us as tcachcis. We may new Inquire: .Wbat ure 'he deinanthi made upon us by the public? What is the work that we are expected te de? What is the general aim of the , schools? Briefly, It is te prepare the pupils in our care te lulllll the purposes of human exist ence; te give them the best possible t tain ing, Intellectual, moral and physical ; te furnish such in formation and discipline us shull qualify them for the proper discharge of all the duties of practical life, and of geed and useful citizenship; and such moral tialning as dovclepo the ability and desire te live in conformity te social and civil requirements. In short,fe prepare thorn te meet and discharge creditably all the obligations w hich shall arise from their relations as members of society, citlzeus and as moral beings. But hew shall this be accomplished? What are the means te be employed? By w horn is this great w eik te be dene ? Fine buildings are net sufficient ; mod ern furniture ai'd improved scientific ap paratus will net Mllllce ; the most claboiute and cemprehensive courses of study will net accomplish the weik te be done, though all tliose are necessary. The teacher Is the imertaut factor in school economy, the central figure in common school education. If he be weak, his methods are weak, and his cllbrts failures, but If he be trained te his work, if he I te Intelligent, earnest and enthusiastic, Ids inetlieua are strong ana ins euerts suc cessful. Ne power en earth can make a geed school without a geed teacher. The preparation of the teacher for his work becomes a subject of great import ance We hae leaiued by oxperionco that a mere knowledge of the branches te be taught is net sufficient. If It be true that they only who under stand mental action are competent te gulde mental action, It is evident that we, as " teachers, must possess wmie knowledgo of the nature et the mind and of lhalaws according te whiih the soveral poweisof the mind are unfelded: must underttiud that knowledge cannot be transferred from the mind of tbe tcacher te that of the p i pil; that knew ledge can only be taught aw uken iuc the appropriate action et the pupil's mind : the de elepmcnt of power, of thought ewcr,ls the important part of our work ; that while kiiowiedgouud skill are indispensable, the power te acquire knowl knewl knowl odgo is of greater value than knowledge itself, and that the bronches taught are the means und net the end of education. Since this special preparation en our part is be essential we may inquire, what are the means placea witinii our reacli by which we may secure the needed training? As first In importance we mention the normal school, and just here penult me te say that it Is a fertunate circumstance that rcspectlve fields of labor He within the n, shadow of a iiiagultlceut institution devoted te the training of teachers, under the man agement of men enthusiastic In their labors and of unqucstioued ability. In the second pl.u-e we would name teacher' Institutes, including county and district institutes. The importance of county Institutes as a mains of quality uig teachers for the better performance of their professional duties lias come te be recognized generally. They are growing In jiower year by year. They serve te revive the spirit, confidence and professional feeling el the teachers, which Is se necessary te success j then, tee, these large bodies et teachers, instructors and lecturers attract public, attontlei) and sunken Ihe thought of euUrecominiiullles, ye tetf afta? G3. and forces It upon the work of the public schools; te this -we must add the special benefits derived from the instruction of skillful educators who are present at these institute for that purpose, "" Be that. In spite of the adverse criticism frequently made upon our institutes, we may assert without fear of contradiction that If any teacher leaves this session at the close of the week without having received any benefit the fault will be hla own. Permit me again te welcome you te Uila session of the lustltute, and te express the hope that) It may prove te be the most pleasant and the most profitable in the his tory of the county. THIS EVBttlKO'S LECTURE. Supt. Brecht has secured four able and distinguished lecturers for this week. The first of these, Dr. J. B.

There seems te be a great rivalry between two skating rinks of this city which have again been drummed into life One of these Is In the King street theatre and is managed by a man named Salter, who formerly had a careussal, but he is said te have several partners In the enterprise. The ether Is in Mrcnnorcher ball and is run by Wendltz's brass orchestra and Frank Dlalkewsk). Each of these places is open en Monday, Wednesday and Saturday ovo evo ove nings. On these evenings each party sends out a brass band which gees thuinplnrr around the central part of the town until people are unable te hear anything else. Each place has been trying te get the biggest crowds and there is a bitter rivalry. On Saturday night the principal attrac tion at the King street rink was fighting. It began at a reasonable hour and lasted for a considerable time, both inside and outside or the building. Even the musicians of the band took a hand In the fracas, and several persons had thelr heads funched and noses spread ever their faces, t in likely that a number of persons will be arrested for taking part in the Affair. The boiler is that the managers or the place endeavor te run it respectably, but they are unable te de it with the hard crowd that gathers there every Saturday night. The place Is almost certain te be shut up iritis net conducted with less noise. The order at the ether rink was geed. Since the above was written suits have been brought against these lighters, who were at the King street rink, before Alder man Horshey.

Mr. Deerr says he has frequently missed meat before and whlle he suspected Frank he never had sufficient evidence te warraut his having Frank arrested.

Arch bishop Ireland briefly Invoked the divine blessing. In a few spirited remarks Intro ducing ox-Governer Carrell as temperary chairman, Mr. Onahan montlened the natne of Pope Lee. Instantly thore was hand clapping and chcers all evor the hall, seen growing Inte a tumult of enthusiasm. The scene was a notable ene as the dele gates swung their hnts and shouted a greet ing te the Reman pontiff. Mr. Onahan's suggestion thai he hoped net far distant te see an international congress of lay Catho lics also met with hearty approbation. Ex Ex Ex Govemor Carrell en taklug the chair was warmly applauded. He said ; It may be that the question will be asked, by what authority is this congress held and under what law does it assomble? In reply te this we would suggest by the sanction of his einlnonce the cardinal archbishop of Baltimore and distinguished prelates who new surround us and by vlrtue of authority orthe consti tution or the United States He said that this congress, se auspiciously begun, will be but the forerunner or ethers jet te ceme and that the Catholics of the United States will leek te tbose congresses with prlde und satisfaction. The congress has but two great purpeses at heart, the glory and progress of the Catholle Church and con tinued prosperity of the American people. (Applause, long continued.) The following cablegram was read : J lit Eminence CanUnal Gibboni, Baltimore. Having made known te the holy father the expressions of the dovetlou conveyed te biin en the part of the Catholle congress te be held in Baltimore, his holiness graciously bids me say that he most afloo afleo afloe tlonatoly Imparts his blessing te all the mombers. (Slgned) M. Cxnu Rami'ema. Danlel Dougherty, el New Yerk, was in vited by the chairman te address the ft gross pending the appointment of cenu t t tees. The famous orator, who mere blun ence has placed in nomination the presi dential candidates of ene of the great par par par tloseftlieeountry In national couventlon and held these great assemblages scll scll beund with his superb 4loquenco, was to day in his best form. He was glven a per fect ovation by the congress. After acknowledging the applause with ox ex qulslte courtesy Mr. Dougberly ad dressed the congress at seme length, lit the tourse or his remarks Mr. Deugherty said the Amerlcaii Cath olics have silently submitted te wrongs and Injustices. Back in Colonial years, he said, Catholics suffered the direst cruellies, and from time te time they have been slandered and maligned In newspajiers, In speech and sermen, sectarian nssembly, political convention and even In the Con gress of the United States. " The highest honors of (he republic," he continued, "are denied us by a prejudice that bus all the ferce of u constitutional enactment. Political parties In the past have sought te doprlve us of our political rights, and we are branded us tools of a foreign potentate and unworthy te enjoy the name of Americans." 1'roceedlug Mr. Dougherty said America would net have been known had It net been for tbe Reman Catholics and Reman Catholle church; that Columbus was a Catholle and was aided by n Catholle king and a Catholle quoen, Catholle nations helped our revolutionary fathers, n Catho lic was among the signers or the Declara tion or Indopeiidenco and Catholics have given horeos te the republic iu overy war. The time has ceme, net of our seeklng, bat In the ceurse of ovents, wheu we, the Reman Catholle laity or the United States, can with propriety speak, eiu vindicate ourseUcs, net by harsh words, boated retorts nor doll dell ant threats; but calmly yet firmly, charitably yet proudly conscious of the Integrity or our motives and impregna bility or eurj position, we assert we are pie-umluently Amerlcans. All through Mr. Dougherty's address there wero outbursts of chcers. At the con clusion the cheering was reuewed again and again whlle the dignitaries en the stage, bishops und archbishops among thorn, crowded around him and shook him warmly by the hand. Father Nugent, distinguished clergy man or Liverpool, England, Hen. Honere Merccr, prime minister or Quebec, and ex- United States Senater Francis Kcrnan, of New Yerk, followed lu brier addresses congratulating the congress en Its success ful inauguration. Cardinal Gibbous, in his scarlet robes, ontered the hall whlle Sonater Kor Ker nau was speaking accompanied by a com cem com mitteoorbiymon which the Congress by u vete ut the beginning or the session had seut te invite him te be present. Side by slde with Cardinal Gibbens and equally brilliantly arrayed was Cardinal Tascbereau, or Canada. The two cardinals wcre heartily choercd by the congress us they made their way through the delegates te the platform. The cardinals were for mally introduced te the congress by Chair man Carrell and Cardinals Gibbens ad dressed the delegates, welcoming them In his own name and that of the poeplo of Baltimore, irrespoctlve or creed. . i Huuday In Uultlmore.

He Admits Mentana lu Defiance erLiw nnd Precedent. The action or Prosldent Harrison In pro pre pro el1" "ling Mentana as admitted te the Union, cm 1 rlduy, Is sharply coudemiiod net only by Democrats, but by Republicans, as a political trick unworthy of a president of the United States. The obvious purpose Is te take the final decision of the Silver Bew county contest out or the territorial su preeo court, presumably Democratic, and glve it te the state supreme court, pre sumably Republican, The president has for this purpo'e practically usurped the power or the existing court. His desire te secure the two senators from Mentana, ene nf whom mav new tin his own son Russell, was se strong that even the objections or tnemhers of his cabi net wero set aside It Is understood that thore was a lively debate evor the proposed action at Tuesday's cabinet meeting, and again at the meeting en Friday, and that the legality of the president's ceurse was qiiosueueu ey me uesi lawyers in tlie caul net, but was defended by Attoruey Gen oral Miller. Harrison has by this act made himself liable te Impeachment lu the Judg ment of seme of the Democrats. The news was published en Friday that the lower court had declded In favor of the Dotnecntta In the centest, The case was at ence appoaled by the Republicans te the territorial supreme court, which Is, or was, Domecratlc. The oase would have ceme before this court en Saturday, but the presi dent, by Issuing his proclamation making Mentana; a state, threw the Democratic supreme court out or ofllceat ence. As the legislative centest was still pending, the Legislature could nel orgaulze, and tbe territory, It is contended, was net iu fit shape for admission te statehood. On receipt or the news or Mentana's admission as a state Judge Sanders, Holena's police maglstrate, started the tnachlnery or state by administering the oath or offlce te Chlof Justice Blake, who then swore lu the ether Judges. Governer Teelo was sworn In.the Inauguration belng very Informal, and thoealh wns adminis tered by the governor's nophew, X. K. Stout, it notary public. A proclamation convening the Legislature for net later than NovemborSO te elect United State collators will be Issued. The friend or rrosldent Harrison deny that he Is open te the churge of usurpation of power made in connection with his hasty admission or Melilalia. They say that upon the Information furnished him by the atterney general he whb bound by the tonus or the enabllng act te lssue his proclamation. It was only necessary, they say, for him te have the cortlllrate that the constitution had been adopted, the form or goverument belng republican. It Is ovidetit, howevor, that something mere was made necessary te the admission or the stale. The paragraph In section 8 of the enabling act is as fellows) "And If the constitution and government of said pro pre pro iiesod states are republican lu form, and if alt the previsions or this act have been compiled w Ith lu the form thoreor. It shall be the duty orthe president te issue Ids proclamation announcing the result or the election iu each, and thereupon the pro pre pro Iiescd states, which have adopted ceusfltu' tlens and formed stule governments as herein provided, shall be deomed admitted by Congress In the Union." By Issuing his proclamation before the territory's supreme ceutt has dotermlned the Silver Bew case President Harrison prevented Mentana from "forming Its state government," as provided by the on en ubllng act; anil this vlew.hlscrltlcfsers say, was prosentod te lilm by members or his cabinet. Rut he proferrod the view of the law which enceuraged the election or two Republican senators. The Central ljilwr Union, The Control Laber Union held a meeting en Sunday afternoon in the room of the Bricklayers and Carpenters en East King street.
