OPENING OF
THE INSTITUTE
TEACHERS OF THE CO'UNTY AS
SEMBLED AT COURT HOUSE.'
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. The Judge's bench
Is hidden fiom view by a laige black
boat d and chut K and an uptight piano
Is placed whete membeis of the bar
can usually be seen addressing the
comt.
XO ENTERTAINMENTS.
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."
Ho then told ot Piofessor Oninei's
attempt to leant tlio monkey language
by tho use of aphonogiaph, which te
coided tlie blmlans' convocation, nnd
when ho had innsteted a few of the
bounds, sptlnglng them upon the
moukes, as a lesult of which theie
was gieat consternation In the 200,
"Monkeys have u language," said Di.
Davis, "but It Isn't like any other
tongue, it Isn'i the English language,"

MR. PAINE SAYS
IT CAN'T BE DONE
Says That No Writ of Quo Wai ranto
Can Be Seemed Until Boulevard
Co. Violates Its Charter.
II.'E. Paine, president of the Ablng
ton Turnpike company and one of the
otganlers of the Notthern Bou'evnrd
compan, which will lease the turn
pike and tiansfotm it Into a boulevard,
lidlcules City Solicitor Vosbur's at
tempt to secure'a wtlt of quo vvatianto
to compel the boulevntd company to
show cause why its newly gt anted
chai ter should not be revoked.
"I guess he'll be a long time seem
ing that wilt," said Mt. Paine lo a
Ttibune man. "I tldnk I know a little
about writs of utto wananto, hav
ing had epeiience with them befote
Mr. Vosbuig was ever a lawyer He
can't get a writ of quo wananto un'll
we do something that Is foi bidden by
our chattel.
"Of course, If we open up a, depart
ment stoie or go Into "the milk busi
ness or do something else that we
hove no authoi ity to do, why he .'an
.get out a wilt, but it's useless for him
to attempt It until we do something
ot that sort."
Speaking of the (.oudemnatiou pr i
teeding.s which aiersoon to be begun,
Mi. Paine said:
"This condemnation idea is positive
ly absuid. They'll find that out befoie
they get veiy far along with It. They
piopose to condemn that portion ot
tlie road lying within the city limits,
but theie Isn't u toll-gate on the
whole stietch of it. What diffeience
would It make If it was londemned?
The people can dtive over any patt
of the toad within the illy limits at
ptesent without palng any toll.
"The city would have to keep the
load In tepalr if it were condemned,
just the same as It has to keep It in
lepair now, so where would the ad
vantage come In.

REFUSES TO
DRAW THEM
CITY OXERK LAVELLE TAKES A
DETERMINED STAND,
Will Not Draw Orders on New City
Bills Charge d by the Controller to
tho Judgments and Incidentals Ap
propriation Until All Old Bills
Charged Against his Account Are
Paid Discovers That There Is
810,587.12 in Old Bills Standing
Against This Appropriation.
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.

What Is This Basement Store ? You Ask.
It's neither a Four, nor Five, nor Ten Cent Store,
though our assortment of goods at these prices
will compare very favorably with any we've ever

We think we can give you better value for
