gHE HTTSBPRg DISPATCH, WEDNESDAY, ATJGTJST ' 27, JSSQ,' v , $ A ICOMPARISONS ODIOUS. The Superiority of German Over American Schools Dwelt Upon AT-THE PEDAGOGUES' INSTITUTE. JEeasons Why the Prussian Method is More . Successful Than Ours. .COUKTI PKIKCIPALS KOW OEGAH1ZIXG ' The professors were one and all in a happy vein, yesterday, at the Teachers' Institute, ,vsand each handled his subject in a manner - "warranted to produce lasting impressions. ' The session was called to order by Superin tendent P. A. Shanor, of McKeesport, after . which Key. Mr. Johnston, of Freeport, led in devotional exercises. The singing, as usual, was under the able leadership of , Prof. "W. S. "Weeden, who also favored the teachers with several solos, rendered in an excellent manner, during the day. Miss Ida Boyle officiated at the piano. Prof. James M. Caughlin, in an address on "Interest and Attention of Pupils in the Schoolroom," convinced the teachers that a boy could not and would not learn unless his undivided attention was given the sub ject in question, ana that in gaining his at tention a long step was made in his educa tion. Prof. Causjhlin's fund of anecdote and story, whereby be illustrates his lec tures, is inexhaustible and productive of any amount of merriment, at the same time ac complishing the desired results. Dr. Theodore B. Noes followed, on the subject of "German Schools," and from his knowledge, gained while abroad, was com pelled to make some very unfavorable com parisons between the German school system and our own. According to Dr. Noss, the Germans are eminently more practical, and develop the eye, the ear, tbe hand, the foot and, in fact, every faculty, instead of the memory, simply. ADOPTED FROM THE GERSIA2T. Dr. Noss referred to several leatures of the American school system already adopted from the Germans and predicted a great many more, as Germany has the most per fect school system in the world. In his ad dress. Dr. Nos proved himself a thorough master of the educational question, and was congratulated on all sides by his listeners as having given a very powerful and in structive talk. Dr. A. E. "Winship's was "The Dull Boy," far more numerous than the dull girl, but preceding "The Dull Boy" was an introduction that proved the speaker had never been of that class himself. In fact, such a volley of wit, in such polished language, with snch finished delivery, is seldom beard as rolled from the lips of Dr. "Winship,, as be compared England, with her practical aggressiveness and desire to "pick up" everything and every country of value, even it she had to "pick up" a genuine American in order to do Eo;Germany, with her sentimentality and im practicability; France, with her ability to dictate fashions, with America, the greatest nation under the sun for solving problems of any character; America who has never yet failed in solving a problem, and who never must fail, but who needs all of her children, even the dull boy, to perpetuate her successes. Then followed a treatise that made even the most stupid boy inter esting for some time, and gave the teachers many a point as to how to detect and in struct the dullest of boys. THE AFTERNOON SESSION. At the afternoon session Dr. Winship was tbe first speaker. The snbject of his talk was "What Books Should a Principal Read?" He began by saying that all edu cators should continually enlarge their ideas and broaden their minds by reading thoroughly good books. The educator, to keep up with the times, must depend on books. The number of books read is not material. Books that are elevating and in structive should be selected. Those teachers whose pecuniary condition will not permit a large annual investment in books should use more care in selecting their mental pabulum, and shonld make themselves masters of the books they do read by repeated readings. Fifty times is not too often to read some books. Ex-Superintendent Coughlin, of Luzerne county, opened bis address by a few remarks on a subject that is dear to the hearts of teachers salary. Under the present sys tem of paying teachers the individual has little or no incentive to do good work. A better plan would be to introduce a sliding scale of salaries. The teacher could be em ployed at a salary of 40 per month, with the condition that he would receive $12 at the end ot the second month, and in like man ner an increase each month until the close of tbe term, when the board should vote to pay a teacher who had been eminently successful say 60 per month for the term. This would provide an incentive to good work that is now lacking. The county superintendent of schools in a popular county like Allegheny can spend but a short time at any particular school. Some teachers imagine that, therefore, the superintendent cannot form a just estimate of the work they are doing. This is a great mistake. The superintendent, who is nec essarily a trained educator, can tell whether he is in a good school or a poor one in a very few minutes after he enters. In a school where the teacher is master of his profession the children will be quiet and orderly in at tending recitations and reciting, and at their desks they will be working diligently at their lessons. In the school governed by a poor teacher tbe pupils will be noisy, tbe room will be untidy and most of the scholars will be idle. SOME-OP THE SIGN'S. These are some of tbe signs that bear evi dence to whether the teacher is master of the situation or not. Dr. Noss continued his address on Ger man public schools. The Germans make the end of education to develop the facul ties, rather than to store the mind with lacts. We, the teachers in tnis country, should fceep it more clearly in mind that our work is to prepare our pupilr for the lite they are to lead after leaving school. Tbe highest excellency of the Prussian sys Tem of education is that it prepares the pupils for their after lives. A second dif ference between the Prussian method and ours is in the means with which they seek to realize the end in view, viz., thorough preparation of teachers. Prussia has a pop ulation .rfEix times as large as Penn sylvania.'' We have 12 schools for the instruction of teachers, outside the larger cities, and Prussia has 115. We graduate about 500 teachers every year; Prussia graduates about six times as many. j.ne xrussian teacners enter the protession for life; here they are required to teach only two years. Prussian teachers rarely change their profession, as they cannot afford to do "so after spending three years in a seminary to prepare themselves lor teaching. Ninety per cent of Prussian teachers are men; in our larger cities 90 per cent are women. On this account Prussia loses fewer teachers by marriage than we. Daring the past 60 years the average time Prussian teachers have re named in the protession is 17 years; in the Tnited States about three years. A DEMAND FOB MEN. In future there will be a demand for more men in the schools of this country. Children should come into contact with the minds of men, as they come up through our schools. There are 25,000 teachers in Pennsylvania sod it is estimated that less than one-fifth o'f these had any preparation for their work. In Germany all are prepared. Tbe Germans treat "methods" as quackery, and their teaching is upon principles of psychology and tbe subjects taught We are onto' the stage of instruction at institutes; we're now in tbe method .stage, and we'll soon get down to the bed-rock of teaching from principles. All teachers cannot succeed by using the same methods. This recalled the story of the bandy-legged floor-walker, who beckoned a lady "to walk this way." She replied: "Lor a massy! I couldn't walk that way if you'd give me the whole store!" That teacher will only succeed who is thoroughly in harmony with her work. Dr. Koss then gave a short sketch of the plan of running the schools of Germany. When tbe institute adjourned all the county principals, who have charge of schools of two or more rooms were called into an adjoining room, where an effort was made to form a Principals' Association. Prof, C. D. Coffey, ot Braddock, was elected Chairman, and J. Q. A. Irwin, of Etna, Secretary. Alter considerable talk a com mittee, consisting ot trots. Cook, of Char tiers; Collier, of Elizabeth; Keener, of Swissvale; Dodds, of McKeesport; Nick Wilson, of Coraopolis, and ex-officio Sup erintendent Hamilton, was appointed to draw up a plan for such an association, and report at a meeting to be held to-morrow afternoon. GOES TO A TRIAL. A Decision br Judge Aebeson la a Salt for Payment oa the Court Ilonio An other Lrsnl fieleaae From the Worlt honie Other Court Item. An argument was had before Judge Ache son, of the United State Court yesterday, on a motion to strike off a judgment for $6,995 10 entered against Allegheny county, for want of a sufficient affidavit of defense. The suit was brought by Otis Brothers, for a balance claimed to be for work on the new Court House. The indebtedness is denied by the County Commi'sioners, who claim they never contracted with Otis Brothers for any work. Connty Solicitor Geyer accepted service for the defendant, bnt did not file an affidavit of defense. Judgment was taken, but it was moved to strike it off, on the grounds that the acceptance of service made the appearance of tbe defendant of record, and that it was not necessary to file an affi davit of defense. The matter was argued yesterday, At torney Schoyer appearing for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Geyer lor tbe county. Judge Acheson decided in favor of Mr. Geyer, and the judgment was stricken off, thus allowing the case to go to a trial. HIS WIFE GOT tttw OUT. Another Workhouse Inmate Released Tbrensh Action of tbe Court. John Dorsey was discharged from the workhouse yesterday on a writ of habeas corpus. He was arrested on August 23, on Bedford avenue, on a charge of disorderly conduct, and committed by Magistrate Hyndman for 30 days. His wife petitioned tbe Court for his re lease, and it was granted on the grounds that the summary conviction was not shown to have been based on evidence of acts which constitute disorderly conduct. Kotrn From the Courts. J. C Gkakino yesterday sned for a divorce from Sadie E. Gearing. He alleged that she deserted him in March, 1887, a year alter mar riage. Usited States Marshal Hakbah yester day drew a petit jury Tor the September term of the United States Circuit Court at Williams port. CATJGHT AT THE GAME. Detected at the Ball Park br a Fair or Opera Glasses. Detective Steele landed John Priddy, a 20-year-old boy, in the Allegheny lockup yesterday afternoon for burglary. He is charged with robbing tbe bouse of H. G. Dravo, on Allegheny avenue. The robbery occurred about a month ago. Mr. Dravo's family were all away, and the house was closed up. When Mr. Dravo came borne be found everything turned topsy-turvey. Two pairs of opera glasses, two gold watches, sleeve buttons and a number of other arti cles were missing. Detective Steele started to work on the case and soon learned that the "next day after the robbery Priddy, who works in a livery stable, was seen at a ball game with a pair of handsome opera glasses. He fol lowed up this clue and yesterday arrested tbe boy. Detective Steele says the goods will probably be fonnd to-day in pawn shops. WAX WKTDETTAK ABBESTED. The Dleyran Arcane Man Captured Sooner Than Was Ezprcted. Max Weideman, the man who is wanted by Inspector McAleese, and who disap peared from his residence, on Meyran ave nue, some days ago, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Officer Grimes while walking along Smitbfield street in company with his partner's wife, Mrs. Bea, of Altoona. Weideman and Bea had a joint business in Altoona, and several days ago the former was surprised, in company with the woman, by Mr. Bea. Weideman pulled a gnn and threatened to shoot Bea. The two men had a desperate encounter, but Weideman got away. He was joined in this city by Bea's wife, and it is said they were going away to gether. Mrs. Bea, who was also locked up, was released last night and started for home with her husband. FOR SLEEPLE-isXEgS "Use Horsford'e Acid Phosphate. Dr. C. R.

THE FATHERS WARNING UNHEEDED Something sensational developed yester day in the inquest on the body of the 2)4-year-old child supposed to have been killed on Saturday by its 5-year-old brother on the Southside. Instead of the latter doing the shooting it was proven that a 19-year-old brother killed the child and blamed it on his young brother. The shooting occurred at 5:30 o'clock on Saturday afternoon, and the child died at 6 o'clock Monday morning. Francis Long neck, the 5-year-old brother who was al leged to have firJd the fatal shot, was ar rested shortly after the death of the child, and was placed in jail. Owing to the ex treme youth of the prisoner, he was released on the parents' promise to have him on hand when wanted. When the inquest was opened Albert Longneek, the father, was the first witness called. He testified that he was eating sup per at the time of the shooting. The boys bad been shooting at a target with the Flo bert rifle, and he had warned them to put it away, as some barm might be done. When he went out the bovs, John and Lewis, told him that Frankie" had fired the shot that struck the baby brother. On Monday, how ever, Lewis confessed to his mother that he had fired tbe shot. , Franciska Longneek, the mother, was called. Her story was the same as that told by her husband. John Longneek, the boy who brought tbe rifle to the house, testified that during the afternoon he and a crippled brother had been shooting at a mark. At their father's request the gun was hung up on the porch. About 5:30 o'clock his brother Lewis came out, and, picking up the rifle, began to examine it, when it suddenly went off, the bullet striking little Willie in the eye. After the shooting he told his father that Frankie bad fired the shot, but knew at tbe time he was telling a lie. Dr. A. D. Husted testified that the bullet entered the right eye, penetrating the brain, and causing death. At this point the inquest was adjourned until this afternoon at 2 o'clock, in order to look up other witnesses. TUBNIHG THE TABLES. The Onti of the Ebenezer Church Trouble Getting In n Little. The hitherto "outs" in the contest for possession of the Ebenezer Baptist Church property, and also for the name thereof, be gin to tnink that "all things come to those who wait" It will be recollected that Messrs. Isaac Morton, W. S. Johnston, Isham Carter, Alfred Jones, Alex. Barber and others objected to the manner in which Bev- Mr. Pryor and the majority of the church ran things ecclesiastically, and carried the matter into court. Judge Collier refused to decide the matter absolutely. Lately the Baptist As sociation rendered a verdict in faror of Mr. Morton and the other "outs," but the "ins" again went into court. Last Friday night there was a meeting at Allen Chapel, Arthur street, and an ec clesiastic council held. There were repre sentatives of Eome 50 churches present. Tbe council considered the question, and de cided that the "outs," Messrs. Morton, Johnston, et al, were in the right and should be recognized by the ecclesiastical authorities. Though there is likely to be more friction ere tbe case is finally disposed of, the "'outs" teel that they can now read their title clear, even at a distance, to the right to enter the fold on their original footing. HE WOULD AH ACT0B BE. A 14-Year-Old Hot Supposed to be Taken Away by a Woman. The police are looking for a 11-year-old named Thome, living at 19 Federal street, Allegheny, who wanted to become an 'actor. He heard of a woman named Pearl Starr, boarding at the Lafayette Hotel, on Liberty street, who gave instructions to young his trionic students and started them ont on tbe road to fame and fortune. He called on her yesterday, and paid her 5, and in return was given a pair of tights. Thome's father, who owned tbe fiver, beard where tbe boy had gone, and started after him. He found the woman, but the boy was missing. She offered to return the tights, but had spent the 5. She afterward disappeared, ana the man is out both tights and money. THEY BID NOT COME. Pittsburg Traction Koad Owner Will Kot be Here Unlit Monday. W. L. Elkins and. P. A. B. Widener, of Philadelphia, principal owners of the Pitts burg Traction road, who were expected in the city yesterday, did not arrive, bnt will be here on Monday next. Tbe President of tbe road received a tele gram yesterday to tbe effect that they would not be here until that time, and will be ac companied, by quite a number of Philadel phians. A son of the former is in tbe city, bnt knows nothing of the proposed deal with the Duquesne Company. Will Suild a Couple of Flats. Only three permits were issued by tbe Inspector of Buildings yesterday. The most important was one to "V. Lang for the erection of two brick three-story flats, or apartment houses, at the corner of Colwell and Covington streets, to cost 818,000. Itnpid Bcatias of the Ueart.

A Movement to Procnro Help and money for tbe Needy Northwestern MIIoo The Good Work Laid Ont for To-Day, at tbe Valley Camp Grounds. An informal missionary meeting will be held at the cottage of Mrs. C. L. Flaccus, at Valley Camp, this afternoon, at which Alaska missions will be discussed. The ob ject ot the meeting is to arouse decided and practical interest in the Alaskan mission field, which is a very broad and prolific one in immorality and vice. The meeting will be presided over by Mrs. S. Hamilton, who will give from personal knowledge, gained by investigation and ex perience, a complete picture of the Alaska field as it now stands. Mrs. Hamilton will exhibit a number of curios procured in that country, thronp-h which she and her hus band recently traveled extensively, and also specimens of the natives' needlework and handicraft in many branches. Mrs. Hamilton has been very much inter ested, since viewing the wretchedness, pov erty and immorality of the Alaskans, in as sisting somewhat in the amelioration ot their condition, and hopes to imbue others with the same spirit, by making them familiar with things as she. found them. While it is not expected to effect a special organization this afternoon, it is hoped that several auxil iaries in the varfous Methodist churches will result from the meeting, and that a fresh impetus may be given to the "Jessie Lee" fund, which is still hanging fire, about $2,000 short. When that amount is raised, active measures will be taken immediately, to erect a school building for the occupancy of the Methodist missionaries and the pupils, a'ter which tbe Government will pay so much per head for each pupil enrolled, but until such a build ing is erected, the Government offers no assistance whatever. Guests have be'en invited to the cottage from all the surrounding districts and churches, and it is probable a very large number will gather upon the lawn and hear of the misery of the poor Alaskans, as it is to be open air meeting. In tbe evening a very enjoyable musical programme will be. rendered by Mr. Hamilton, who has recently been elected President of tbe Valley Camp Association; Mrs. Hamilton, Mr. M.Gilder sleeve and Mrs. Wallace, all musicians of note. SEVEN HUNDRED Everett Piano for Everett Fiauo Clubs A and B. Mr. Alex. Boss, the manager of tbe Ever ett piano clubs, returned from a tour among the piano factories pf the East 10 days ago. After a thorough examination of all the leadipg pianos in the market he placed the second contract 'for 350 pianos with the Everett Companybelieving them to be the best value. . This is probably the largest order ever placed with one factory for pianos, and puts tbe Everett entirely beyond the reach of competition. It is not possible for retail dealers who buy in small quanti ties to sell a piano of equal merit at the price obtained by subscribers to tbe Everett clubs. The list for Club B is now open and is fust filling up. Piano purchasers should see tbe Everett. It will please the most fastidious, and the club system offers inducements in prices and terms of payment impossible to obtain in any other way. Call or send for circular to Alex.
