SCHAEIVFER. In an Address to the Directors of tho County Ho Prosented Some Startling Information on the Vnl uo of Education ut. Smith, of West Chester, Lectures at the In stituteEvening Entertainment by Marshall P. Wilder Was a Rare Treat. Dr. Schaeffer, state supetlntondont of public Instruction, nddtesseil the wliool directors of the county jester tlav afternoon In No. 2 court room on the value ot education, picsentlnjr to them strong facts, which, coining from a source so authoi Unlive, may be ex pected to produce good icsults. The directum' association convened nt 10 a. in. The Uoetoi's nddtess tame us the final part of the programme. lie said that Germany Is doing the best commercial business of tho woild. Why? Iiecause she educates her arti sans, tuuloMiien unit mechanics, and puts brains behind the hand that In born. England could not understand for yens und years why the people of the lthiiie outstripped her in tho mar kets of the world. She only waked up to the cnuse when nil tho premiums nt her Crjstal Paluce fair went to the Rhlnelander.s, and then she appointed i committee- to Investigate and found lroni the report of the committee that It was due to Oermnnv's superior ad vantages for the education of the com mon people. The one gieut lesson, he said, of the nineteenth tenturj has taught the world the advantage of Militated labor. It wins and contiols, e-veiy time, the markets of the world. Victor Hugo said that every time you open u school jou close a prison. England found that to be tine In one year after an appropriation of $20 000 000 had been mnde for the use of the dlstilet schools $-'0,000,000 on prisons and $40,000,000 on the rare of paupers vveto saved. Dr. Schaeffer one day went into the works of a shoe factory In Massachus etts and saw a man who eriaduoted from Cornell wot king nt a bench with u leather npron on him. He also found among the girls employed there sev eral opetatives who had ariaduated fiom the high school. That state pns the highest wages to It.s teacheis and on the whole seems to be extravagant for the outlay of money spent on edu cation. She gives every pupil In the state an average of seven j ears' school ing. The average In the United States Is four j ears. And she spends iflO.OOO, 000 a year for education IT INCREASES WAGES What Is the lesult' The average earning power for every man, woman nnd child within her boundaries Is '?. cents, and the average for the United Stales Is 40 cents. It has been con servatively estimated that for every dollar put Into education every year she gets u return of $23 in earning pow er. He spoke ngaln on the subject he talked of before the teachers on Tues day, that some teachers in his own county of Perks are paid less than It takes to feed a pauper at public ex pense. This statement made some ot the directors shake their heads. He told them they need not look with dis dain on P-eiks, for the same thine Is true of some leathers in Lackawanna county. And yet, questioned the speaker, what Is It that makes life worth living? Can it be measuied by dollars and cents" No, Indeed The ilch man tan buy a. fashionable home, but it may not be a happy one, he may have heaps of money, but It cannot buy u good con science; and he may buy a llhrai, but he needs education to uppieciate the beauties of llteiatuie; ho may hang the llnet't pit tin es that nit can create on his pailnr walls, but the -servant glil who comes in to dust the loom, If she has had a high school tinining, will enjoy seeing them better than her mas tei if he be so unfortunate as to lack It. Time may be hard and directors mav hesitate to piy good salaries to good teachers or to build schools and prop erly equip them but expel It nee the woild ovei has fully demonstrated that it is the wisest economy aftei all to look out for the value of education Tli- meinlng suslon of the annota tion was opened by Piesldent William l!epp, ot Old Kon;e, with an address. Superintendent Geoige Howell, of the Scranton schools, made an addiess on the 'Ideal School Dliector," nnd Pi or. Green, of West Chestei, spoke on the value of t.ho libraries. Dlicctors V.'. J Emor, of Jefferson, John McCilr."e, of Lackawanna, James F, McAndiew, of Aichbald, and It. II. Holgnte, ot La Plume, enteied Into a discussion on "What Is Tiue Etonomv in School Af faiis?" Pi of. W. A. Kelley, of Aich bald, sang to the delight of the dlitc tors, and Miss Ploy Good, of Claik's. Summit recited. Ollleers weic fleeted as1 follows: Piesldent, W. T lhneij, of Jeffeison, vice-presidents, Thomas Donly, of Oly phant, Pied Kleftei, of Dickson; Chailes Deckel, of Newton, secretaiy, Edwnid Maclny, of Illakely; tteasuror, Piank L. Cnrr. of Elmhurst. Bit. SMITH'S LEOTITIU;. Dr. Andrew Thomas Smith, acting principal of the West Chester Nor mal school, arrived esterday to take part in the itctures at the county in stitute. He is u le-nintil man, his a commanding nnd pleasing peisottallty nnd the ability to use simple and ele gant laiifruae In expressing solid Ideas. He fcpoko at the foienoon ses sion on the "Ueallty Principle In Edu cation." Teaching can be reduced to an ex act science, he said, so as to attain nn absolute uniformity in teaching all branches of the school cuirleulum The branches of study are not uh.-ays distinct, but it is always nossiblu to discriminate between fact and art MIes Ada Van Stone Harris, whose talks are so interesting to the teach ers, not onlv tho-o of the pr'maiy grade to whom she addresses herself particularly, but also to tho principals, rpoke on recreation and relief work. The old time rigid discipline which required pupils to sit up straight In straight-backed seats, she nigued, robbed the Echool of that atmosphere which makes It agreeable for teacher, pupil or visitor. Miss Lucretla Snyder, of Dunmore, leclted the "ludcmient Pay," ufter width an Intel mission took place, nnd upon reiiHsenibilng Dr Smith's address was heard, Tu. Schaeffer, who was on the programme to speak, making way for hlni. Dr. Schaeffer was tho first speaker nt the afternoon session, his subject being United States history. This sub ject, he eald, must hereafter be Uuiht fiom a cosmopolitan point of vIaw, The closo of tho nineteenth century finds the power of tho world In the hands ot the Engllsh-speaklne na tluns. The dalls' pnpers tell of franco's backdown In Egypt and England's eu 1'tcniacy. Tho Spnnlsh war just closed plnces our own country In the fore front. On this side of tho water the United States Is powerful above nil other countries ot tho western con tinent. England In the east would win eventually In a clash ot European powers. Towards the close of the eighteenth century tho Napoleonic combination of Latin nations wns so powerful that Europe was under Its sway, and by placing Maximilian, biother of the rul er of Austria, upon tho throne of Mex ico, Nnpoleon was reaching out to gather Into his powerful grasp a foot hold thnt might expand Into the ulti mate control of the new world ao well, . . . The Latin union of the old world became disrupted soon after tho par nlvzatlon of Its western arm when Maximilian was put to death. Dr. Schaefter urged the abandonment of teaching our pupils n hatred of thu red-coats. We must got the hoys am girls to love the mother country; not only that, but also, to teach them tho way to appreciate what Is good In every nation. LEARNING TO OBSERVE Miss Harris spoke on languare in her usual interesting way and laid special stress upon the value of ob servation In our cvery-dny life. Edu cate the purlls"to notice what kind of a flower or bud Is woven Into the table cloth and see how quickly the olfeet will bo produced In the Increased ten dency of the child mind to gnsp and gather Information readily. Piofessor Daniel Gnrdner, on the vi olin, accompanied by Miss Holllster on the piano, ontui tallied very dellpht fi'Ilv lor it few minutes. Miss Floy Good, of Claik's Summit, recited "The H'liul Thnt Saved St. Michael's " Dr. Smith's afternoon aJdicss was on school government. In the school and the home thoie are two systems of government, one Is an ultimate aim. the other an Immediate aim. In both there Is the development of the personal clnracter. The maintenance of coirett order Is one of tho essential lequircmentft In tho school. Indulging a child in school oi ct home mnkes It Insufferably unbear able. The child that is Indulged wants vour tnne, then your watch, next it vi ants the birds on the tree and iln all.v the star". Fear, howevei, lias a tendency to weal'en. but Is Is better to Lu weak and good that stionj: and bad Obedience I-- the tlrst requisite to be demanded in the school room. It Is better if the teacher can nile uy low than by sternness, but when the child glows up nnd goes out In the world he must obey the Impersonal law of tli" state. Compliance with v hot the law lequlres is what the teacher should lit the rupll for. MEANING OF LIBERTY. And vet Di. Smith would grant the pupil llbei'y. He did not want to be misunderstood, llbertv within the scope of moral and civil laws Is what he meant, liberty roust be an insistence upon a full measure of obedienc Ar guments have been piesented against the onijiulsorv educitloii law tha It nni rows the pe rsonal liberty of the p ir tnts ills Idea en tnat point is that it broadens the scope of llbeity, lust as the punishment of a crime makes the circle for the law-abiding citizen gn ater by narrowing the criminal's Held of opeiatlons. The pupil should bj taught proper manneis, not the fastidious manners that are put into piactlce In high so ciety, but tlie manneis thnt come- from a kindly hevrt. They should k-ep their clothing brushed, hair tombed, hands, face nnd llnrers clean Tl e teachers should associate fieely with the pupils without becoming tcu fundi lat or unbending in dignity.

At the Closo of October It Was Not Much More Satisfactory Than at the Close of September At Tide water Prices Aro Still Being Cut. Thero Has Been Talk of nn Ad vanco In Circular Rates. III the November letter of the An thracite Coal Operators' association the following statement concerning tho condition of the market Is given: "The close of October has not shown the nnthraclto market In a much more sntlsfnctoiy condition than It was at the close ot September, both as re gat ds demand and pi Ices, although the lecent storms and cold weather In tho west have made the demand better In vntious localities there, and a brisk movement has also been noticed In Now England ports. At tidewater, prices are still being cut, although there has been talk of an advance In the circular rates, which, however, has not yet been confirmed. It Is apparent, from the number of orders that dcalois leport having lecelved during tho last month from customers who usually lay in their next winter's supply dur ing the spring nnd early summer memths, that buyers have learned that It Is to their advantage to hold oft un til fall and secure the low rates which their experience of previous years has show n are likely to be In force. "Any improvement which may be ex pected must come from a pinlonged spell of cold weather. This would force buying for consumption nnd as the stocks In dealers' lunula nie veiy low, would piobnbly cause a rush for Immediate delivery, which the railioads would find very haul to meet In view o. the present shortuge In tars. Pi Ices would then undoubtedly advance, but whether theie will be any decided Im provement before the tlrst of Jnnuniy will depend upon the tonnage In No vember and Decembei, and It will need the most indleal restilction in ship ments to effect It. "The tonnage tor Octobei Is estimat ed to be about the same as that of last j ear for the corresponding month, pos sibly more. No nmount has been lixtel upon lor November, but It is probable that the usual output for this time of J ear will be produced " STATED MEETING A stated meeting ot the Opoiators' nssociatlem was held at the Hotel Wnl-doif-AstoiIa, New York, Wednesday.

"The present iates or ttansportatlon on anthinclte ate so notoriously un icanonnblo, oppiesslve, and unjust, that the payment theitof, as ielate-d to the piesent priee for coil, means simply a confiscation of our property I veil tuie the opinion that the maintenance of high ur unreasonable iates of ti as portation has Injuiiouslv affected the antlnaelte cairleis themselves, as will ns the communltleHand the aiious In tel ests that may be relateel to this gieat Industry AVith the many l.illioads that nave traverser! the anthi.icite legions eiurlng the past wenty e,us, capable of caring for nil requliemcnts, it Is cur ious to nolke that it has been upon the completion of some new road, that the Independent operator baa lelled to 're ceive either a higher price for his coal, or u Iowei late for ttansportatlon. Ascnn Instance. I think that all will admit that In the matter of railway facilities, the oppoitunlty to enter tho niuikets, It was unnecessary to con struct the New York, Suequehunna and Western rallio-id, but the sagacious projectors of that enterprise, glowing out of tho pievalling iates on anthra cite, saw an oppoitunlty to justify the expendltuie. The completion of this load wns n boon to the individual and the Independent opentor. It was this competitive factor which apparently ennbled hi m to obtain a lamer pro portion of the value of his coal, a bet ter pi lee at the mines. 'The ail vent of the New Yoik, On taiio & Western Railroad Into the an thiaclle Held, was surrounded by similar clicunistnncesnnd conditions. "The lailioads already occupying that terrltoiy could have served the opera tors and communities upon equal, If not better terms, than those offeted by this enterprising rival. CASE OF COXE BROS. & CO. "Ill the Instance of Coxe Bi others & company, If I am advised concctlv, tho movement of their tonnage did not re quire the building or construction of some fotty miles' of additional lallway. Such construction was substantially a duplication of facilities already con nected with their collieries. Coxo Hi others & Company as you know, made tin aggressive, intelligent, but futile effort to secure lower, more leasonable and equitable rates of trans poitatlon for theli coal from tho an thracite carrleis oceupjlng that -terrltoiy Failing to do so, they were Justi fied In constructing their own road and In that wny obtained, ns owners of the lallroad, benefits that were denied to them as owners and operators of col 1 leiles. "It is these unreasonable, and as we believe, Inequitable rates, that will fully jufrtlfy the building of another load that has been projected from the an thracite legions. We may fiankly ad mit that the amount Involved In tho proposed enterpilse is an economic waste, but who Is responsible for the waste" Is it tho independent operator who cannot obtain transpoi tatlon on his tonnage nt leasonable rates for the wjryie-e, or Is it tho anthracite carriers. vvhdr In keeping with their traditional policy' compel htm to build unother road, that better or more Just treat ment might obtain?

Tlie annual report of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad com pany for the past ear, Is a public proclamation of the great prollta that result from piesent rate-H of transpor tation. In that leport it was admitted that the loss In mining coal for 1S97 was $214,723.00 Tho loss on merchan dise tinlllc was $300,771 00, but the gain fiom coal trafllc was $6,341,936. ' 1 am aware thut the question as to what is a leasonable rate of transpor tation on anthracite, has not ct been fully determined, but I am of the opin ion that with the pre vailing tendency to reduce the cost and pi Ice of the transpoi tatlon of all othei commodities, that the presentation of our demand in some effectunl way, will bring about the establishing of reasonable rates " WAS FAVORABLY IMPRESSED. Rev. Dr. Hughes on Our Political Mass Meetings. The impressions of an "outsidet" on Atneiican politics and the Amciicnii manner of conducting a political mass metlng aio given below In an Inter esting Interview with Rev James Ilughei, D. D., who both in England nnd Africa was a prominent llgure in politics. He was one of the most In terested auditors at the Stone meeting, and leadily consented to tell what he thought of It. when waited upon jes terdny by a Tribune leporter "I do not wish to say an thing about joui politics," ho went on to say. "I do not sufficiently undei stand them to give unythlng like un Intelligent and enlightened opinion concerning them. Toi a good many yeais I did what I could In England and Afilca in nndt ing to dlreit public opinion on ques tions of local and national importance, but I am loo oung an Ameilcan to take uny pan In even local questions hei e. "1 am pleased to suy that I wns de lighted with what I saw and heaid at the Lyceum meeting. In the hist place the meeting was Immense, the building seemed to me to be packed to its utter most capacity all seemed eager to hear what the appointed speakers had to say, and nil conducted themselves with seiupulous piopilcty and deceit um. Such an intelligent, well-conducted political audience I have not often seen. The nddt esses which I had the pleasure of INteninc to weie veiy pleasing to me, espeelallv In this, they weie en lliely free from those personalities of a tarnishing and recriminating char actor, which unfortunately too often abound at political meetings. "I am not going to sa anything about the met Its of the speeches from a political standpoint such a question ns that I niutt leav e until I understand a little more about Ameilcan politics, but this r can sav, that Colonel Stone e ommended himself vei much to mo by his temperate and sensible addiess There was no ostentation, nor lecilmi nation, of a peisonal nature In anj thing he said, but a. plain, good com- 1 mon-pense statement was laid before the meeting. I should sa. Judging from what I saw nnd heard last night, that Colonel Stone is a line man In . ovu sense of the word. ".Moreover, 1 was pleutvd to hear the i Itev. Dr. Reed on an occasion of this character. I have been lnfoimed over and ovei again since I came to Set an- , ton that polities are so conupt and degrading that no Christian minister could take any part thete In without Incuirlng the dlspleas uie, and even the disdain, of the general public. Well, the meeting again since I cime to Scranton thnt politics aro sei conupt and degrading that no Christian minister could take nuy pan theteln without Incurring the dlspleasuie, and even the disdain, of I the general public. Well, tho meeting last night seemed to me to contradict that statement, for Dr. Reed was heart ily cheered when his name was called out by the chairman, nnd his address was listened to with lespeetful atten tion. This was very pleasing to me. for I believe that every citizen should ! inteiest himself In politics, for tho two great things that concern man aie ' tinlltfps nnd reltfrlnn. thev 1nt.irtirn fin. I Interpenetrate all the ramifications of human life 'The tone of the speeches which I heard and the deeoium und respectful attention of that vast audience im piessed me veiy favorably indeed I thought the chairman of the meeting Intioduccd the business of the evening In a veiy felicitous speech, the manly and respectful spirit of which seemed to permeate every address that fol lowed I ceitalnly was' most highly pleased and most ngreeably surprised."
