Tho county Institute came to a close
with yesterday morning's session, nnd
the teachers, ofllcers, lectures nnd oth
er attendants, after much mutual con
gratulating went to their several
homes much pleased with the work of
the week and Incidental pleasures of
the stay In the Electric City.
Miss Buckbeo gave ns her farewell
talk a dissertation on "Children's Mo
tives,," which like all her previous
talks, was plain, practical and Inter
esting and Instructive. She deplored
the fact that so manj' children leave
school before they have fairly begun
to study and blamed It all to the lax
ity of the parents.
Dr. Benedict gave an Interesting nnd
voluuble address on "Lessons In Ob
nervntlons." Among his Illustrations
wd.s an explanation of tho manufacture
of tin Incandescent lamp. He advised
ever" ono In the vicinity to shut the
ejes after which he hit the lamp a
slight blow resulting In a loud teport
nnd the scattering of minute particles
of r'ebs all over the platform. It was
ofu'n said that an Incandescent lamp
would not set lire to tho most delicate
diaper)', hut he would not advise ex
losure of such materials, as ho had
Know n of a caso w here a young man
hod thought of a brilliant Idea In the
way of warming his feet by placing a

was a great success ns a foot-warmer
but consumed the bed clothes In the

PROFESSIONAL READING.
Reporting for the committee on pro
fessional leading. Prof. M. W. Cum
mlngs recommended for the teachers'
perusal and study "Baldwin's School
Management," edited by Dr. Harris,
United States commissioner of educa
tion, and "Educational Foundations,"
published by Kellett & Co, of New
York.
Resolutions were adopted conveying
thanks to Superintendent Taylor, Dr.
Stewart and the dally papers; com
mending the state lezlslature for the
enactment of the compulsory education
law ; commendlntr the present course
of stud)- followed In the county schools,
and seconding the action of the county
superintendent in reconsidering the de
cision of the last convention to hold
the Institute In Carbondale, "believing
the haste In such action, the smallness
of the number voting, nnd subsequent
attendant circumstances, to have been
ample cause for his reviving the Issue,
thus allow Intr him to decide for a cer
tainty In accordance with the best In
terests and desire of all."
Tho resolutions were read by Theron
G. Osborne nnd were unanimously
adopted.
Deputy State Superintendent Stew
art, in his closing address, urged the

sponsibility of their vocation, of the
Influence they exert In moulding the

owe In helping In the general educa
tional advancement of the state. Ho
complimented the city on the new High
school and expressed the hope that the
pupils would only be constantly awake
to the Et and opportunities afforded
them.
SUPERINTENDENT'S "WORDS.
Superintendent Taylor In his closing
address commended the teachers who
had given careful attention to the lec
tures, and asked those who had been
careless to do better In the future. "A
teacher," he said, "who Is not suffic
iently self-controlled to listen atten
tively to a good, short lecture Is not
competent to control a school of chil
dren." He thanked all who had aided
In making the Institute n success and
announced that tho sessions wero then
at an end.
At 11 30 the Institute closed with the
singing of "America," Prof. Cogswell

FAILURE OF FIRM
OF WILLARD & CO.
Was a Matter ol Extended Discussion In
the New York Papers.
EFFECT OF THE COLLAPSE HERE
J. It. Mlllnrd, tho Hcnd of tho I'lrm,
Wns Formerly u Kcportur for the
Chicago Ilirnld in tho Hoard of
Trndo of TluU Cilfllnd Two of
the) DwIrcIih Associated with Illm.
Writ of Attachment Served,
The failure of tho firm of J. R. Wll
lard & Co,, bankers and brokers, with
headquarters In New York city, and
branch olllces In this city, was a mat
ter of extended discussion In the New
York dallies yesterday. Judging from
the best reports It appears that the
break was not caused by any clande
stine effort, but that tho condition of
the markets In respect to the Arm was
wholly responsible.
J. R. Wlllard, the head of the firm,
was formerly a reporter for tho Chi
cago Herald, on the Chicago board of
trnd-j. The other members were two
brothers, Elmer Dwlgglns and Jay
Dwlgglns, nephews of Zlmrl Dwlgglns,
tho famous western banker. The firm
had been In business since September,
1S95.
"The concern, which ndvrtlsed that
It held memberships on the consoli
dated Stock nnd Petroleum company,
tho Now York Produce Exchange and
the Chicago board of trade, has done
nn enormous business," says yester
day's Sun. "It had more than 100 cor
respondents In various cities nnd an
extensive private wire and long-dls-tnnce
telephone system extending
through the Southern, Western and
New England States and Into Canada."
WHAT ASSIGNEE SAYS.
Starbuck, the assignee, Is quoted as
saying: "The cause of the failure was
simply that tho firm was on the wrong
side of the market. It wns short of
grain and also of most of the stocks
on the list. The liabilities will nearly
'v holly represent the claims of cus
tomers."
I. P. Fuller, of the firm of La Bar
and Fuller, agents of the ruptured con
cern, with olllces in the Board of Trade
building, stated last night that as far
as he know there had been no new de
vp'opements during yesterday. Mr. La
Bar said that the Arm lost solely
through the condltton of the markets.
The Scranton capital effected by tho
break was regularly Invested by the
film. "I do not think," said Mr. La
Bar, "that tho creditors will ever re
ceive one cent. It was a clean nnd
complete failure."
T. W. Millar, who conducted the oth
er agency, in Moses' cigar store, on
Wyoming avenue, visited his former
place of business for a short time yes-terdaj-.
He would say nothing about
the failure.
WRITS WERE SERVED.
Deputy Sheriff Jacob Ferber yester
day served the writs of attachment, Is
sued in court Thursday, In the Inter
ests of Henry Bodner, of VlIkes-Barre,
one of the ci editors, against the four
banks of this city as garnishee of
moneys credited to the firm of Wlllard
& Co. The writ was futile, as there
was no deposit In any of the banks
Both of the local agencys were closed
yesterday.
