Three Hundied Teachets of Lacka wanna County Aie Now Meeting in Their Twenty-Second Annual In stitute The Work of Enrollment Occupied the Morning Session. Miss Louise Connolly, of New York, and Dr. Sheiman Davis, of Indiana, Made Addi esses. Fully tlnee hundied teacheis, assem bled fiom nil over Lackawanna County, veto nietont In the main room of the cotttt house yestetday morning, when County Superintendent .1. 0. Taylor tnpped his bell and called to order the twenty-second annual Institute of the noclittlon. The entlie mottling session was de voted to the dlstt Uniting ot note-books, music books and progtu mines, and the vvoik ot entollment, which was In choige of the following committee: R L. Thompson, chnltmnn, Newton; Aug ust Ollendlke, Dickson; M. P. O'Uoyle, Arohbald; James Wilson, Srott; f. U. Wage, LaPlunio; ('. B. Weber, Old Potge; .lames J. Powell, Mooslc. While this vvoik was In progies a genet at social session was held, ninny of the teachets seeing each other for the Hist time since last year's Institute, and fiiendly relations being renewed and ties of filendshlp bound still tlghtei. The scene of the Institute pie sents a fat different nppeatance than It does (luting cottit.

A depot lure will be made this year at the institute, In the absence ot even ing cnteitainments. These have been omitted from the couifae, as the Insti tute fund was not large enough to var iant a first-class list of speakets with out lalsing tlie entollment fee. The afternoon session was opened by the te.tclieis, led by Ptofessnr John T. AVatUiris, of th's city, singing "My Countiy, 'tis of Thee." T'ndcr P10 fessor AVatUins' dltectlon several other songs wete also lendeied. Supeiln tendent Talor then tntioduced Miss Louise Connolly, an authoi and lei -tuier, of New Yotk city, as a lailv whom all ptesent would be pleased to hear, as one expetlenced in Instltut't woik and whose audicss could not help but being Intel estlng and lnsttuctive Miss Connolly's subject was "The Home and the School." "Home," said she, "Is whet over your family may b. The family is an otganlsm. If I, as a member of m., family, am hint or dls gtaced, my whole famltv Uels the In jmy or the stigma. Home means all poetiy. At home the fundamental piinclplcb of education ate Instilled In eveiy child's btenst. "The school intioduces a In and new ptlnciplo Into the child's life. He thete loses his Indiv Iduallty and for the first time meets with leal justice and be comes .suboidln.ite to the will of othets, the teachets into whose care he is en tiusted, SHOl'LiD COME CLEAN. "The school can demand fiom the home fit st that the child comes to school dean. The teachets can also demand fiom the home that the pat ents do not gossip about them, as I know Is a custom pattlculaily In some ot the Southern slates. "Then, too, anothei souice of objec tion Is that the paients always come to school In a giottp the fhst dav that the child begins his pilmaiy vvoik, and on tlie last day, on commencement, neither day of which can bo taken at all as a ciiteilon of school woik. And In the gieat Inteimedlate petiod they lately come near the school. "The school, in turn, should send back the child to the home just as he came, unsullied in pet son and mind. Recess is the gieat ptoblem which pre sent Itself to the Atneiican teacher. It Is our business to pi event the chll dien's morals being spoiled and evil habits contiacted duting this shoit peiiod. Democtacy thould be encour aged In the public schools, and the child! en be taught to mingle and asso ciate with each other fieelv, no matter what their natentago or social tank Is." Miss Connolly dosed her temaiUa with a plea foi the paients with chll dien in the High schools, and asked the teacher to tiv to hold the voung people to their natutal affection for their paients and not let It -wane tluough the fact that a little advanced learning puts them on a higher edu cational plane than pooily educated fathcts and motheis. .DR. DAVIS' TALK. Alter a ten minutes' lecess the in stitute woik was lesumed, and Dr. Sheiman Davis, ot Indiana State unl veislty, was Intioduced to tlio Insti tute by Supeilntendent Taylor. Dr. Sheininn opened his addiess by declar ing himself the bearer of the gtcot iugs of 15,000 fellow -teachets In the state of Indiana, In the comse of his talk he mado the statement that all Instincts have a life telation, and nar lated sevetal Instances of tlio actions of animals Impelled by instinct to self picseivatlon at the fancied appioach of another animal, a heiedltniy enemy. "The baby babbling," said he, "Is meiely asset ting it life Instinct to talk. When the Impulse comes for tiny movement we should always teach those activities. Tho Instinct to talk, to walk Is In the babe, but It must bo developed. When the tace Impulse Is on, you must teach the languuge."

City Oleik Lavelle again refused ye.s terdnv. for the second lime within the past few weeks, to draw variants oil bills sent up to his oflke by Controller Howell nnd charged to Ihe iudnments and Incidentals appropriation by that official. The two bills sent up aggregated In amount a little over $300 and were for services rendered by City Solicitor Vos hurg In connection with the Ablngton tuiuplko muddle and for work done by the Hnrber Asphalt company In pav ing a little strip of street on Penn ave nue, In front of ptoperty belonging to the Hundley estate. Uoth these bills veto contiacted vv ithln the past two months, and Mr. Lnvellc's renson for refusing to draw wan ants for them was because ho be lieves that bills contracted a year or moio ago, and chaiged to this account, should be paid fit St. Ho was satisfied that theie were a latge number of old claims on file against this account, but In older to ascertain the exact amount he caused his nsslstant, Mr. Motrls, to make an examination. The latter did so, and found that thsie ate on file In the con trollers office sundiy bills nnd judg ments dating from March -', 1S99, amounting to ?10,B87.12, charged against the judgments nnd Incidentals appro priation. This does not Include, of course, the judgments on fllo in the prothonotarv's oftice, which amount to upwards of $00,000. An examination ot the ledger le velled that there Is a balance of J3, 222.,")5 still remaining In tho approptia tlon, $3,277.29, a balance remaining fiom the fund set aside several yeais ago for the putehaso of Nay Aug park, having recently been merged into the appioptlatlon by the controller. A few houis after the examination of the books by Mr. Mori is, three of the oldest outstanding bills against the ac count, amounting to over $330, weie sent upstairs by the controller to have vvauants diawn for them. This Cltv Clerk Lavelle will do, but he announced to a Tribune man that under no con sideration whatever would he draw any wai rants foi any bills except those that come to him in tegular 01 tier. He believes that the conttoller, know ing that theie is a balance of over $3, 000 in the appiopiiation, should im mediately pioceed to wipe that balance out by paying a sufficient number of the oldest bills and ludgments to ag gregate that amount. He says that Mr. Vosbuig and the Barber Asphalt company will have to wait their turn, as have the others. SEVENTH ANNUAL REUNION. Catechumens of Trinity Lutheran Church Meet.
