HELPFUL DAT AT INSTITUTE
! luny Addresses Khicta Aroused the
Interest of the Teachers.
LAST SESSION THIS MORXIXG
lnstiiuu Will Adjourn Haally at Noon.
Afternoon' Topics Reached tha
Fundamental -Principlea of Scien
tific and Snecaisful Instruction.
Yesterday was the lant day . but one
of th (ufhrro' Institute. The morn
ing session o;iened with an invocation
ly Kov. Htifch Davis, of the Welsh t'al-vintstk-
Mi-thiHiist church, of the West
Side. Dr. Brumbaugh" was the tirst
speaker and he began with a humorous
mien which was not Boon forgotten
but served to keen the teachers very
susceptible to any funny Incident
throughout the session. His topic was
"tieographloal Concepts."
Dr. lirumbaugh began by a compre
hensive reference to the position
New York city occupied as an interna
tional, a world-wide mart. He de
scribed its imports and exports, its
great money exchange and then com
pared it with Liverpool and London.
The Kngllsh cities suggested England's
stupendous shipping Interests and
cnusert the speaker to deplore the lack
of It In this country which Is better
equipped to bulhl vessels of all kinds
and to maintain the greatest navy In
the world than any other nation. He
drew a commercial lesson from the
great consumption of food supplies hi
London.
Soon after It o'clock the primary
teachers retired to the main purlor of
the building where they were addressed
by Miss McMollan on "Each pupil bis
own discoverer."" She advocated per
mitting the young mind to be given rea
sonable scope iu its peculiur, chlld-tm-aginatlon.
- . .. -
.Meanwhile In the hall Professor
John L Wagner, of the SJcraiitun High
school, discussed "Electricity!" He
elaborated on two points, the battery
principle and the X rays. "Thought
Getting" was the subject of Superin
tendent Coughlin, of Wilkes-Mane. His
subject matter was practically an in
troduction to his afternoon address
which appears In substance below. He
emphasized the necessity of placing the
child under the proper mental condi
tions with the same precision mid thor
oughness that a piece of delicjite ma
chinery is prepared tor-work peculiur
to itself. Pupils, especially the young,
must be In harmony with their work.
DR. WINSHIP'S TOPIC.
Dr. Winshlp's topic was "History.'",
It was a subject dry and devoid of in-,
terest to a greater number thnn It fas
cinated, consequently-the teacher's atirt
should be to niuie the study Attractive,
"ICvangeline" was a history poem, but
the history was concealed In such li
subtle and masterful way by Longfel
low that Its benefits were received by
the reader without being conscious of
the concealment. Instructors cannot
be Loiigfellows but in teachlnirhistory
they can make the dry, but neverthe
less important event, the pivot about
which interesting and connecting but
unimportant mutters cluster. Thug the
scholar's enthusiasm would be ap
pealed tu. Dates or epochs are the
hubs of utcuiate history scholars and
they should be surrounded by some fas
cination feature of historical study
whn-li will liii'iiess he date as well as
the feature on the scholar's mind.
't'lie ulteritvoii session was distin
guished for the subject matter and
thought of three addresses which
merited and probably received more
atteutluii and careful consideration
than bus been suggested by any simi
lar number of lectures during the In
stitute. Appurenily the afternoon's
subjects were planned with the Idea of
presenting i" theory the substantial
facts which If grasped would do much
toward making the teacher's vocation
efisler for her mid more valuable to
pupils.
The lecturers were Dr. Brumbaugh,
Superintendent Couubliu. of Wilkes
B.ure. and Dr. Wlnship, und their re
spective tuples were leogruphical
Concepts," u continuation of the morn
ing lecture; "Tests of Knowing" and
"The Teacher's Heading." The former
was of u nature of geographical infor
mation and comparison, nnd the other
iiddliSMMS served respectively to liHke
o'-iin the ' fundamental principle, of
:-nil (lie object of proper read
ing. DR. RIU'MRArOH S MKTIIOD.
What Dr. Brumbaugh said was not
of more importance than his Ingenious
way of saying it. He gave a fund of
Valuable Information ubout China. Ja
pan and the South American countries,
facts suggested to teachers and pupils
., .ji urography, but which
arc md generally known among the
former and of which the latter are
wholly Ignorant. He explained many
facts and things peculiarly distinctive
of the countries under consideration,
and made himself clearly understood
by u method of comparison. Inven
tions und modern Ideas, he said, were
working rapid changes in everything
and absolute reliance could not be rest
ed upon any geography except In Its In
formation as to urea and topography.
Superintendent. Coughlln's lecture
served to show that correct recitations
do not neeessarllly mean correct knowl
edge. Knowing what words mean Is
one of the most essential elements of
study and thought. This knowledge.
If only half obtained, will bring about a
relation between the definition and the
thought expressed., A . selection com
mitted to memory is useless unless the
person has a knowledge of the thought.
Giving correct answers Is not getting a
correct education. In this connection
the successful teacher Is one who de
tects what the child does not know, but
ought to know. Children may commit
to memory, may recite to you correctly,
but may not have knowledge. A knowl
edge of what words mean Is the foun
dation of thought and knowledge Itself.
You may drill and drill a child on bank
discount, but what is the gain If the
little ones do not know what "bank
discount" means. In geometry, for in
stance, it may be learned almost as
easily from the proper understanding
of the proposition and diagram as from
the actual figures.
MEANING OB WORDS.
Knowing what words mean is uti ab
solutely necessary fundamental knowl
edge to any kind of study. The young
should be educated to see and think ac
curately. The foundation In the con
crete Is careful observation; then comes
comparison which does more to Impress
a fact on the mind and make It thor
oughly understood than the mechanical
and arbitrary working out of the thing.
Anulysls Is the next step. A proposi
tion which is understood in only a por
tion of its parts will by the chain of
parts and facts bring about a knowl
edge of the whole. The whole, perhaps,
Is forgotten; then will be fnund the Im
portance of analysis. The defective
memory will recall one or more of the
parts which will themselves suggest
the whole.
Dr. Wlnship had-only twenty minutes
at his command, but In that time ne
succeeded in impressing many Impor
tant hints as to the proner kind and
method of reading for a teacher. Each
profession and class of people have
their peculiur reading manner and
mutter, the kind suitable for them. The
lawyer reads . precedent: the doctor
reads new things In his profession; the
minister leads everything and with un
due combatatlvenesB or sympathy ac
cording to his and the author's views;
the editor reads for the present and
future nnd fortify himself to assume a
policy or position on momentous ques
tions at a day's notice. The teacher
should, as a basis, read for Information
concerning present and past methods
of teaching.
The teacher' reading should be alonfr
three lines. She should read for cul
ture. Information and to know' aom
oti masterpiece; the latter because
any teacher can have the respect of
scholars in a given community if she W I
equipped to discuss some one of the
great writers. Heading for Inform-
tion is to fortify yourself with standard I
and timely Information. A teacher j
must be progressive, alert and up-to-
date. She must also have the sources
of knowledge and that comes from
standard Information which has been
secured from reading. Don't be afraid
to say you don't know thus and so. but
be cautious In saying you know a thins;
when you don't know Its source; you
may be asked for explanations. What
ever you read, read with spirit, with a
fixed determination that you are" to en- , ! :

ln.No, 2 before Judge Archbald. the
datnng- suit for S5,0(M of Peter Kelley,
executor of James Kelley, against An"
thony O'Horo, was on trlnl all day and
It will take up today also. The evi
dence on the plaintiff's side was to
show that a stone wall had been built
between the two properties by the
plaintiff to prevent the water after
rains and tfiawa from flooding his
premises and that O'Horo took the
trouble of filling up the land on his side
of the wall so as to make the level of
the lot even with the ton of the wall
and thereby made the wall useless.
' It was also a part of the plaintiff's
case that damages were sustained for
the reason that he could get no tenant
to Inhabit his houses, there being three
of them on the lot, on account of the
unsanitary condition from the stagnat
ed water in the cellars.
A FENCE POST TROUBLE.
North Abingtnn Neighbors Deeply

A hearing on the warrant was given
Mr. Myers two days later and In dc

COMING ATTRACTIONS.
At the Academy of Music this even
ing Rice's company will be seen in
"1492." Good scenic effects and elab
orate costumes predominate in the pro
duction. New faces will be seen In
many of the characters, but In no case
will the individual excellence be per
mitted to digress from the standard by
which Mr. Rice has heretofore gained
the hearty approbation of the public
from Maine to California.
No more successful opera has ever
been written than "Robin Hood." It
has stood the test of years and still
possesses the same charm and potency
to attract as when llrst presented. The
humor of Bornnbee ns the Sheriff of
Nottingham, the splendid ""song of
"Brown October Ale," as sung by Mc
Donald; the amorous song in the swell
ing tones of Eugene Cowles; that de
licious romanza. "Oh Promise Me,' In
all its power and pathos, and most
charmingly sung by Jessie Bartlett
Davis, together with the serenade by
"Robin Hood" and the bird song of
Maid Marion, in which Helen Bertram
Henley has no peer, are feutures not
to be easily discounted by those who
love pretentious und at the same time
popular and pleasing melody. This
great company will be the attraction at
the Academy of Music Saturday night.
Shakespeare's masterpiece, "Romeo
and Juliet," forms a conspicuous part
of Margaret Mather's present season's
bill; and well It may, for In all of our
literature there Is no play so crowded
with all the elements of popularity, not
even forgetting the undoubted attrac
tion of songs and dances, by no means
a modern dance for we find them Intro
duced Into nearly all of Shakespeare's
lighter plays and even some of his
tragedies. Miss Mather's handsome
face and perfect form make her an Ideal
Juliet. This, as well as the other plays
of Miss Mather's repertoire, are pre
sented with great cure as to details of
costuming and scenery, and amongylrer
able support may be mentioned Freder
ick Paulding. W. 8. Hart. H. W. Weav
er, William Davldge, Edwin Brew3ter,
Mr. Hoyt, Mr. Turner and Miss Feely,
Miss Harold, Miss Marcelle, Miss Leigh
and others. Miss Mather will appear
at the Academy of Music Tuesday,
April 14.
There will be a grand concert at Col

' OPHXINQ OF STREETS.
In the way of opening streets, some
thin? very much desired by the general
public, very little was accomplished dur
ing the past year. The obstacles and
barriers to progress placed In the way by
property owners and the great variance
in values placed upon such property for
taxable purposes, and the amount asked
by property owners, when the improve
ments were actually demanded, may be
best Illustrated by comparison of the fol
lowing tlgures:

1,535 tk'iU 24,10

360 225 ' 6,500
This amount was actually paid.
Your determination not to authorize any
more grading of streets unless every
property owner on the line of the proposed
improvement first voluntarily enters Into
an agreement to release the city from any
and all claims for damages which might
be tiled on account of said grading was
a wise course, and will save to the city
many tens of thousands of dollars.
Property owners have in the past peti
tioned your honorable bodies to grade
the streets in front of their respective
properties and after the work was per
formed some of them enterd suit against
the city for damages, receiving from 5
to $30 for every dollar the grading cost
thein, which of course, was a very ea3y
way of making an honest .?) dollar, but
at the same time being rather unfair to
the general taxpayer.
The following figures will best Illustrate
how tha city has been mulcted in the
past:
Amount of Contract. Damages Claimed.
$1,075 00 $4,375 00
1.173 0u 3,140 W

ll is needless to say that there has been
but little grading done under the new
order of things.
PAVEMENTS OF THE CITY. '
The city has In us 14.170 miles of pave
ment as follows:
.Miles.
Sheet Asphalt H.902
Stone block --3
Wooden block 351
Vitrified -brick 772
Cobble stone 2.105
The total cost of all kinds of pavement
except cobble stone Is $558,585.23. There
has been 12.9H4.H square yards of all kinds
of pavement laid during the fiscal year of
1S05, the coot of which was $32,474.74. Of
Ihe'whole amount of pavement laid dur
ing the vear 04.0 per cent, was sheet as
phalt; 24.il per cent, vitrified brick, and
10.5 per cent, stone block.
During the vear the department has
lost by death .Mr. Robert it. .Molr, who
departed this life Feb. 11. lSHO. He was a
member of this staff for a period of -three
years and by his sunny disposition and
readiness to help out in any emergency
had endeared himself to his associates
in this department. The city loses by his
removal from us an honest and efficient
public servant.
With the end of this fiscal year conies
the unwelcome resignation of .Mr. l V.
Costello, who has been the well-known
and faithful clerk of this department for
a period of nine years. His loss will be
serlouslv felt and I am sure his presence
will b "missed by every city official, us
well as by all those who knew him and
had occasion to do business with this of
fice. A
THE BEST RECOMMENDATION.
What Is admittedly the best recom
mendation contained In the report was
that when contracts are awarded for
sewering that they be made to Include
house connections as far as the curb
line, the efficacy of which Is readily
apparent. There are at present, ac
cording to the report, 140.82 miles of
traveled street In the city, and only
40.03 miles of sewers, so It can be seen
it Is not too late to adopt the sugges
tion. Another Important recommendation
NEW DRESS GOOD
We
are
a
m
M
(S,
was that a new map of the city be
made. The present map Is far from be
lni accurate, as It was made from a
collection of property maps which are
often contradictory and never too re
liable, as the majority of them, were
made when surveyors In this region
were not overly particular, as a rod of
land In those days was not of as much
account as a foot of land Is now; and,
besides, the science of surveying was
at the best crude as compared with
modern surveying.
Accompanying the report are twen
ty tables showing In detail the work of
the department during the year. In
cluding four pages of a report of ce
ment tests. With the exception of
the paragraph relating to himself, P.
W. Costello penned the report. To say
that It is a model of neat penmanship
Is superfluous.
