Urlght-eycd and wldo-awnke teaeh- nrs, to the number of over 400, Riithcred In the auditorium of the HIkIi school yesterday afternoon nt 1.30 o'clock and took their seats as Superintendent of Schools Howell tanned n bell and de clared the ninth annual teachers' Insti tute to be opened, After singing: by tho assembled teach ers, under tho leadership of Prof. Der mnn, President John Cllbbons, of the board of control, made n brief but characteristic address, In which ho re ferred to the question of increased sal aries, which is Just now agitating every teacher In the cjty. He said that he had found It Impossible to redeem his promise of assistance made a year ago, because a majority of the board couldn't agree on the mutter. The tenchers, he said, deserved to lecclve higher sal aries, and he Intimated very strongly that the latest petition for a twenty five per cent. Increase will not be al lowed to go by the board. This prompted Superintendent Howell to muke a few remarks beorlng upon the same question. He said that the High school teachers of this city aie belnt? paid salaries which rank with the highest paid for similar work In any part of the country, but stated that the other teachers are not receiv ing anything like what they are en titled to. He urged the teachers" pres ent to make a vigorous fight for a recognition of their petition, and Im pressed them with the necessity of getting right down to work before the committee frames Us budget for the coming year. CHORUS SINGING. After some excellent chorus singing by fifty of the lady teachers, under the leadership, of Mrs. A. P. Bnrnes, the first speaker, A. J. Demnrest, of Hoboken, N. J., was introduced. He delivered an nddiess on "The Aim of the s,ew Education," nnd interested his listeners for upwards of an hour with a bright, keen and Incisive talk on the general trend of the newer edu cation. In beginning, he told of some of the greatest men In the educational fleld who won name and fame for them selves because they were different from the others about them, or because thev made themselves different by seeking to improve themselves. He pictured with scorn the meiely mechanical teacher, who follows out a stereotyped and time-honored programme every day, without any definite purpose and with no conception of the great fact that he or she has entrusted to his oi lier care "the lives of boys and girls with a higher destiny than mere earthly things." A great purpose, be said, is always the antecedent of a great action, and he urged the teach ers to have the one great purpose of ever seeking after the best and truest uppermost In their minds. The new education, he said, seeks not only to teach the three It's, but also to teach the three C's, culture (physical), cheerfulness and citizenship. The great and ever growing necessity of training the body, as well as the mind, was em phasized and in this connection Mr. Demnrest said a good woid niso for Hie manual training school concerning Peter r.lnowll, of North Scrnnton. The prosecution wns thb out come of a story printed In the Scntn tonlan on February 23, regarding state ments made bv Charles Miller. Attorney Scrngg appeared for the de fendant, and Attorney Vokolek for the prosecutor. Mr. Scrngg contended that the aggrieved party should first show that the paper containing the nlleged libel was purchased from thn defend anl, Llpowltz wns sworn, and testified to having purchased the Hcranlonlan from a newsboy. The article In question was to tho effect that Ohnrles .Miller swore before Aldeiinan Kldlcr that Llpowltz had offeied a desperado $ii0 to kill Miller. Stephen McDonald, a reporter on the Scrantonlnn, testified to having re ceived the alleged libelous Information from Miller in the presence of Alder man Fldlor. Fldler wns sworn and tostirted to having heard Miller tell McDonald the story In his oftlco, when Miller wanted to hnve Llpowltz arrested for making the nlleged threat. M. J. O'Toolo was also sworn. He testified that Llpowltz went to the Scrantonlnn onlce nnd requested, a con tradiction of the story, nnd that his version of the affair wits given on March 2. Htehard Little, the defendant, was sworn. He did not know the prose cutor, nnd had no knowledge of the article huvlng been printed until the charge was preferred agulnst him. Aldermnn Howe took copies of the pnper In question, nnd reserved his de cision until he familiarizes hltnseir with the offending article. SHORT STORY CLUB.

Mr, Wells will liuvo oyer 400 different patterns of the newest and finest do. mestlc und imported effects to select from, BltlNG BOTH. "The commonly accepted idea," said he. "Is that childten should only bring ineir neaits to school, but I think It a veiy wise idea it they are allowed to bting both their beads and their hands." The new education, he said, seeks not so much to Impnit mere knowledge as it does to teach tho child to observe, to think nitd to leason, nnd thus to de velop the powers within him. It seeks also, bo said, to bring up a generation of intelligent and virtuous citizens. The national lire of this country, :i declared, depends upon Its public schools, which are the nurseries of Its liberties. -Miss Anna W. Williams, Intioducod by Superintendent Howell as n "suc oeKsful normal teacher, a lover or chil dren nnd a noble woman," gave n de lightful talk on "Popular Misconcep tions of the Kindergarten." The larger part of Iter talk was couched In a vein or gentle and at times almost biting sarcasm. She showed that she has been very observant during her visits to certain klndeigartens, and her lm mltatlonH of the methods and manner Isms adopted by the teachers whom she saw In them was especially amusing. She told of the klndergurten teacher who carries tho mutter of Idealizing her work to extremes, and who wants ner pupils to see everything from a poetical point of view. Then she went after the superior kindergarten teacher who "leads her pupils n mnd Intellec tual dnnce like n sort of educational Pied Piper of Hameliii." Then iim teacher who Is so precisely grim, and who Uvea up to the rules so that she Is almost ideal from a text book stand point, was given a few gentle little thrusts, M1STAKKS THKV MAKF. Sho told of how ildlculous some kin dergarten teachers make their wort hy ovor-idcillzatlon. One teacher she told of who had been telling her class or tho universal unity of everything in the world and of how every beast of tho field was of assistance In soma wav or other. On the day sho vlsltpd tho school tho teacher had a plcturo show ing nil tho known nnlmnls, and she was asking tho children what each nnl mal was. "A dear little helper" wns the answer she hnd tuught the chil dren to give. Miss Williams humor ously told of the ludicrous effect by the child who declared tho lion to bo a "dear little helper." The over-popular Dr. F. II. Green gave n sort of Impromptu talk on tho bringing of music and melody Into every-day life and Into the school-room It was a wonderfully Insplilng presen tation of tho gospiTof good cheer und pleused his llsteneii? mightily. XAST NIGHT'S CONCERT. A brilliant assemblage was present nt last night's concert lit tho bjeeuin. The local Inter. est, aside, fioni tho musical enthusiasm, was in tcnsllled betaiHo it milked the debut of a jounu; woman of whom Sennton lias reason to he proud, as well as the kciond islt of llie Kimtest contralto on the staito' today. Another most hlgiilllcuiit feature was the prominent place on the prnjrranimo occupied by a local leader of orchestra with his own quartette. l-ist night's, the climTC of (he series of con certs nnanifcd by Kred t Hand, was made bril liant bv the most elaborate stage netting eer arranged for u musical event here. Quantities of prims aitlrftlcally grouped, and blazing designs of electric lights, heightened the general effect. The Hag of the t'nlon diaped the upper ncenej and was flanked by another across the balcony. Hip bines were all filled, and the house i.iu- tented n gala appearance as the ball guests were out in evening nttfre. Among box and bge holders who entertained parties were: Jlrs. Thorn is Dickson, Mb. Timberman-ltaiidulph, l't. Itev. BUliop Hob in, Jlareus Smith, of Wilk-s-Harre; (. 1). Simpson, II. .T. Horan, Chan. Itob inson, T. II. W'ntkliw, M. ,J. Ilealey, C. O. lloland, It. C. Wills, Charles Scliadt and A. J. Casta . Madame Sdiumniin.lleink is tired with the long tea-on and Its hard woik, but nothing dims the glorious radiance of that solce with its heights nnd its depths that Illumine the soul of the listener and alternately lead II into the shadows where tears are, and the memory of for gotten sorrows hide. She is to noble of mien, so sunny of face! It fho sang in Chinese still tl.c notes would touch our hearts and we should know that she sang of !oc and sadness and mirth and tenderness and the emotions that are the dearest and the sad dest in life. Rut her dcrtnan is delightful and her UnglUli is dunning. Her opening number, the recitative and erla from Brutli'h "Ouj-vus" gase scope for her phenomena! range and dramatic power. The climav where her wonderful loner tones in their lirhncM were heard at their best was thrilling indeed. As an uuorp she gave in English the mperb aril from "M. Paul," and the timbre of hei Miice seemcl ndniiiably railed to the sacred theme. The group of Schubert songs weip perhaps the most attradive from a popular point of view. The pure Iviie quillty of Madame Schumann Heink's olic was ttri'iimdy felt in "D'c All inaiht," and in the ouliti "Bolero," the grace mil spiightllnris and the oriental temperament weip prominent in contrast. Mast of all the joul of this woman is felt by her liateneis. Miss Claie llorru received an ovation when she came out psrortcil by Mr. Hand. She did not disappoint the multitude of friends who wele so proud of then young tovvii-vvonian. She has the tine I.ichctizsky touch with an individuality of her own, which is a pleasing study to the listener. Jln-t of all Miss Hoi in is biilliant to a degree.
