THE POWER OF COURTESY
Three-fourths of the Doctors nnd
One-half the Merchants nnd Law
yers Owe Their Success to It More
Than Any Other Power. Snys Dr.
Phillips, of Westchester Normnl
School, to Cnrbondnle Teachers.
Miss Lloyd's Talk on Physiology.
Prof. Albert Continues Geography
Talks Other Incidents of the
Sessions.
"Iliiir the liieii.'hniils :inil half the
lawyers inve their hiiitpss not tci thulr
liuslness qualities nor professlonul
ability, but owe as much t" thulr cour
tesy as to any power they have; anil
three-fourths of the doctors of Carbon
dale arc Miceowsftil for the same rea
son." This is what Dr. Phillips, or West
Chester Normal school, iinirmcri In bis
talk yesterday forenoon at the city
teachers' institute. Ho was discussing
school discipline or school manage
ment and when he stated this fuel
which is accepted as having a good
deal of force, he was seeking to im
press on the teachers what :i source of
power they had in their school life in
being kind and courteous. Tburlow
AVoed, the great politician of Now
York, when he was in the height of bis
power, advised 11 young man to be
courteous' 1C bu would succeed.
Child study is good, but self-study,
a study of ourselves, our dispositions,
will be a great help and will be anoth
er source of power. Another source of
power is the respect of the pupils for
our scholarship. The teacher who will
have her scholars resnect ber powers
of knowledge and learning will lind
thiil it will go a long way towards
her controlling her school.
The Value of. Praise.
"The value of praise is wonderful,"
said Dr. Phillips, with greater em
phasis. "We are loo ready sometimes
to find fault when we ought to praise.
There is a good ileal more in praising
than In llndlng fault. 1 never knew
one teacher who praised too much; the
trouble Is we do not nriil.se enough.
You know bow good you feel when
your superintendent or one of your
directors visit you and says a kind
word In recognition of sonic of your
ofliclal acts."
Re frank and willing to admit your
error if you tire wrong; and always
hear what your pupils have to say in
defense of himself. Keep In mind that
the worst scoundrel on trial in your
court house for the most dastardlv
crime has the right to tell ills story be
fore lie Is condemned. Keinember the
advice of Kdison to the mother who
brought her son to the famous inventor
to hear something that might benefit
him. Kdison was absorbed In his work;
he was lost to everything but what
was before him; naturally ho was in
ill humor when approached by the
woman nnd her son. Kdlsou looked 11 1
the woman and the lad and blurted;
"Madam, tell you son not to watch the
clock." So teachers, wild Dr. Phillips,
don't watcli the clock; don't hurry time
in anticipating the social or other en
gagement that you have in mind.
In conclusion, Or. Phillips suggested
that the teachers rend morn of the
work on education, by Herbert Spen
cer, the father of school management.
Ho reminded them ns a nnrting
thought that, primarily, education is
not the mere teaching of the lessons
of the text books; public education Is
to make your scholars good citizens. In
this great and responsible work, school
management is of the first Importance,
In the afternoon, Dr. Phillips look
I lie teachers and spectators 011 n hur
ried, but none the less interesting trip
through the city of London, commenc
ing with thu rlilo on the railway cars
to the famous city, after crossing tin
sea, His descriptions -were so clear
nnd entertaining that everybody en
Joyed the Illusion Hint alio was in the
city of fogs and historic place,
Dr. Phillips gave a graphic picture
of tlw poverty and misery of London,
which wan probably the greatest of
any city In tho world ris was true of

The Tobacco Habit.

Slia spoke on alcohol in tho evening.
It was Incidental to her talk on prim
ary physiology, sshu Instanced tho
flthletlo contests of the land of Wil
liam Tell whero the contestants In
Archery abstain for months from the
use of alcohol nnd tobacco that they
inny havo steady nerves to send the
arrow Into tho mark. Teach tho boys,
vas her advice, that they will hivo
peed for strong muscles and steady
nerves In the battle of life, which can
IjcsI be preserved by abstinence from
alcohol, "Above nil," snltl she "leiieh
your boys Hint tntniierance Is a virtue."
.Miss l.loyd decried (ho eilttciiltnn
Hull would tell 11 boy Hull he rotild
I'lirti his living without tho use of ills
hands, She had a contempt lor this
kind of rilucutlnu. Dignify nianital
Inbor, by Impressing on the hoy Hint
he will have to use his hands. In I Ills
way he will learn to value Hie won
derful body given him nnd he will
learn to care for It.
In her talk In tin' afternoon, Miss
Lloyd went iil'ter the tobacco hnblt,
particularly the clgiiretle hnblt which
site claimed "was ruining so many of
our boys and ptevenllng I hem rrciin
reaching their full growth and devel
opment." She attributed the growth of
tho hnblt among boys lo the example
of older persons who smoked at will
and enjoyed their cigars nnd pipes
without thinking of the example they
gave.
Miss Lloyd ipioled France as one of
the countries where signs of degener
acy were greatly multiplied, I he cause
of which was charged largely lo to
bacco. She cited thai recent observa
tions showed that the women of the
present generation are taller by one
Inch than those of the prcceedlng gen
eration; while men are ihrce-ipiarlers
of an Inch shorter. Tills falling behind
on the pari of I ho men, she charged
to the use of tobacco as a factor. Miss
Lloyd gave numerous hints as to the
suppression of Hie habit, not bv
scolding, but by pointing out tho.c
prominent men, men of national prom
inence, wlm do not use tobacco. Kore
niost among these was President
Honsevclt.
Prof. Albert gave two or bis usually
interesting talks on geography anil that
he Is sowing Hie seeds of bis teachings

CRUSHED TO DEATH.
Brakemnn Walter Rounds' Life De
stroyed Between Two Cars While
at Work in D. & H. Yard.
Walter Hounds.u Delaware and Hud
son brakenian, had his life crushed out
yesterday morning, about 1 1 o'clock,
while at his duties in the Delaware and
Hudson yard in this city. lie was
caught between two trains ami was
fearfully squeezed, his neck being
broken. Uotli arms were also frac
tured. There arc two stories as to how
Hounds met bis tragic death. Tho most
plausible is that while ho Wiis walking
along with ills train to uncouple a car
from the engine, lie did not know of
the approach of another train on an
adjoining track, which caught him.
Jammed him between the ears and
squeezed him until his neck was
broken. The other supposition, for It
Is no more, is that ho was riding on the
tender oC his engine, tli.it he struck
against a car on Hie adjoining- switch,
not noticing it, as lie was riding back
wards, and was struck on the head.
His cries attracted Conductor Krunk
Kiofer, on whose trifin lie worked, but
he expired immediately.
Hounds had just conio to work, as
his train was getting ready to pull out
for AVIIkes-Harre. after having come
in from Nineveh in charge or Con
ductor Slif Robblns.
Rounds was taken first to Purple's
undertaking place, and then to ids
home at No. 1 Canaan street, lo his
wife, whom lie left only an hour before,
and who became prostrated with grief.
Tho deceased came to Carbomlala
seven years ago from rnlnndaJe, where
he was born thirty-one years ago.
After working on the trolley road a
short time, lie got employment as
trainman. He had many friends among
the trainmen and nt'f the railroad, and
there will be much sorrow over Ills
death. He was a member of the Klrst
Methodist Kpiseopal church.
Mr. Hounds is survived by his wife,
one daughter, Anna, aged seven; Ills
mother, Mrs, Onoy Hounds, and one
sister and three brothers, as follows:
Mrs. Henry Robinson, or Omaha, Neb,:
Jason D. Rounds, of (Jaletou, this slate,
and Jesse .1. Hounds, of this city, a
train dispatcher for the Delawine and
Hudson.
A BEAUTIFUL PLAY.
"Lovers' Lane" Will Bo the Best
Production of the Season.
What can be truthfully asserted is
that the production of "Lovers' Lane,"
iit the ( 1 rand on Saturday next, will bo
the best that Cnrboudale can expert to
see this week. The inero statement
that It Is a good play, o worthy play,
does not speak at all of its beauty, lis
beauty cannot be spoken. AH one can
MIRROR, SCALES, ETC.
There was a man. And his
mirror said "sallow skin."
And the scales said "losing
weight." And his friends did
wag their heads as he passed
by. But being a prudent man
he forthwith swallowed daily
certain pleasant doses of Scott's
Emulsion,
Then his mirror said "ruddy
face." And the scales sunk
beneath his weight. And his
friends looked upon him with
amaze,

There Is Hint attention to scenic do

DR. WALSH'S COMING.
Achievements of the Loctttrerer Who
Will Be Here Monday Night.
The third number on the Knights of
Columbus lecture course will be given
011 Monday evening next, when .lames
.1. Walsh, A. M., Ph. D.. will deliver
his famous lecture, "Literal lire and
the Protestant l'.pformntion."
This lecture has been given before
the Catholic club of New York and the
Women's association of Brooklyn, and
is to be delivered before the John Ho.vle
U'RIelly reading circle of Hoston. The
latter has but three lectures per year
and selects its lecturers with much
care. The lasl two 011 the course were
Hooker Washington and Kather
O'Hrieu Pnrdow, the recent provincial
or tho Jesuits.
As a lecturer, therefore, il is shown
that Dr. Walsh is second to none' in Hie
l.'uited Stiites. As literary lecturer to
Hie Rrooklyn Institute ot Science and
Art, he is associated with such men as
Hrander Matthews, Hamilton Mablo,
Henry Van Dyke, of Princeton, and
Hliss Perry ol" the Atlantic Monthly.
Dr. Walsh Is also well known In
Kurope, where he spenl some years in
study and research. As a linguist un
excelled lie had the honor to be the
United Stales representative to the
congress of doctors held at Moscow,
Russia, 11, few years ago..
The Knights of Columbus arc being
congratulated on having secured a
dale from Dr. Walsh, anil he will un
doubtedly be greeted by a large au
dience in St. Itose Hall on Monday
cvunluir.
FAREWELL APPEARANCE.
The Famous Sisters Delight Carbon
dale Audience for Last Time.
Tlie famous Smith sisters, the talent
ed members of one family, were at the
(ii-iind last night in the Ladies' Insti
tute and delighted a great audience,
the majority of whom were Hie friends
they made on their last visit to this
city. The programme was well ar
ranged and each number was given
In characteristic style. Several of the
numbers were applauded to the echo
and redemiiiiilod by tho most vigorous
haudclapping. The recitations by
Miss Marguerite were the most popu
lar, the audience being loath to let her
depart.
It was the rarewell performance or
the Smith sisters in Carbondale for
they will disband In two weeks and
will retire from tho stage.
One of the sisters. Miss Jaenette, has
met her ideal and is now a Mrs. Walk
er. Her sisters felt that tho organiza
tion was broken with her loss and they
decided to withdrawn. While Carbnn
dalians' good wishes go with Mrs.
Walker and they hope to extend sim
ilar wishes to others of the sisters ere
long, they regret to hear that the or
ganization will not again visit Carbon
dale. A crowd of Priccburg young ladies
and gentlemen enjoyed a sleigh ride
to this city lasl night and took posses
sion of Hurke's hall for a few hours'
enjoyment.
MUST CLEAN WALKS.
City Engineer Kupp Proposes to En
force the Law.
The sidewalks must be cleaned. City
lhiglucer Kupp issued a notice on Sat
urday to lids effect, and while there
has been a ready compliance in some
parts, particularly Hie business district,
the resnonso is not satisfactory. In
most or the resident sections there
seems to bo a spirit to let Old Sol dls
pose of tho snow, for not a shovel has
been used on many a walk,
The city eiiKlnecr has an ordinance
to back him In ills purpose to have
clean sidewalks, and thus save the city
from paying damages for accidents,
and be proposes to enforce tho order, if
the attempt lo evade the law continues.
A line or $2,"i may bo Imposed for such
neglect, and If the neglect continues for
the period of ten days, another quarter
of a bundled can be slapped on. It
would appear to be cheaper to handle
the snow shovel for a half-hour or so.
