The murder of youue Matthews, tie
Republican iKietmaster at Ctirroliton,
Mis., bavin? been a political one, the
ex-rebels in Missu-sippi are enraged that
their villainy baa been exjiosed. Ehjc
ially is their hatred manifest toward a
reparter of the Chicago Tribnnr who w
sent South to investigate tbe Matthews
murder. He wrote an acoouut of it from
a purely disinterested standpoint, and
his revelations so incensed the Missis
sippi rebels that they have arrested biro
on a trumped-up charge, and it is f ared
he will be lynched unless some action is
not soon taken to secure his release. This
is the same old Mississippi where the
wan who dare call bis life bis own is
narked for death.
Says the New York Mail and irwj :
The present Indian troubles in the North
west have called attention to the fact
that we have not less than i,000 Indians
in the Stiteol Xew York. Nearly K),000
acres are set apart for the various tribes,
who still retain their separate identity.
There are 4-jO Indians on the Onadoga
reservation near Syracuse; ') on the
Tonawanda reservation, and as many
more on the Tuacarora reservation near
Niagara Kal's. The Oneiilaa are very
few in number now and arc scattered,
w bile on the Shinnecock reservation on
Long Island there are about l.YV. The
balance, some u,000, are scattered along
the Canadian and Pennsylvania borders,
including the Seneca and St. Kegis
trilws.
The first of January has passed. The
day that was looked forward to with so
much apprehension by the business
world bss come and gone, and without
the wreck and ruin that the bears in the
lock gambling world so confidently pre
dicted. This is just what the newspapers
of the country, unaQected by tbe New
York stork gambling shops, have all
along asserted. The country has been
prosperous ; trade has been good, there
is scarcely a merchant who will not say
that his receipts have been greater this
year than for the corresponding period
last year, and labor Las been generally
employed. Why, then, should there be a
financial panic ? It is true, men are fail
ing in business constantly. But so have
they ever since business between man
and man was first established, and so
they w ill until the end of time. It most
not be overlooked, too, ibit the promi
nent failures in our own State were not
busiuets failure). They were failures
growing diiectly out of unfortunate spec
ui a tions. And the bank bAlance to-day
are larger than at any time in years. No
one distrusts tbe banks, now. Every
back in Pennsylvania that was forced to
suspend during the past three months
has resumed, cave one, and that a small
one. Tbe future, tbervfore, has a bright
outlook for business, and the spring will
open with a good trade. Confidence,
that is the very heart of biuinsn, and
that aoenxd to be sadly shaken a few
weeks ago, is again testored, and every
body is preparing for a business boom.
Let every one help ll.e good work along
by cheerful and not gloomy annexa
tions. Harriiitury Ttt'irajji.

(C.,i'';i 'iff ;: $
DiWe were made fir Jeas. the Bible is

Ie gut throah whit T call the dry
part of my lect ire. (Applause. Bear in
mindthi', the important things oflbis
life are always dry.
Money ia u power. I've been in Africa
and held tip a gold pew and tbe villagers
would come and look a; it and rush off
and bring me all they had and place it
before me. Money is a weapon of de
fence. If you are in trouble money w ill hire
your lawyer ; will secure Bieu to protect
too. Money is a means conducing to re
spectability in society. When you see ft ;
man with money you necessarily respect
him. On tbe other hand ir yon see
man that is a pauper, yon conclude there
must be something the matter with him.
Meney is a support during the non-producing
period. Children are non-producing,
thsy are more, taey are destroy
ers. Old age is similarly nonproducing.
It is sad thing to see anyone that baa
not laid op a competence for old age.
Some of the abuses of money : Bribing
Legislatures, bribing Juries whether by
a lawyer or otherwise are abuses of mon
jy. I once asked Commodore Vander
bilt what advice he'd give a young man
to enable him to get rich ; I'd tell him,
said be, to save, and cave, and save, until
he'd got together 11000, then to put this
on interest and live without touching the
interest, investing the interest regularly,
and longevity will make him rich ; by
the time he'd reached seventy-five years,
said tbe lecturer: he'd be worth $32,000.
Love of money makes a man mean.
A man married a woman for money ; he
died, and left the money to ber so long
at she remained a widow.
There was a man w hose father and
mother put all they had into his hands
and he died and left it all to benevolent
institutions leaving his parents paupers.
M-nya una would have been rich
by the sbw process, that Lm made
haste, and lewt a'.lhsbil. Hj'J onto
your money as bng as you live ; don't give
it all ti yoar children. A man is a fool
ish man who doesn't try to save money,
and if he's a christian he's a foolish
christian.
Latt of all, I say, Young men, be
smart, but don't be too smart.
An old man had three nephews Tom,
William and liichard Tom concluded
he'd visit his uncle, who was suffering
from some illness, and did visit him ; he
found the old man at his dinner, with
an egg, and some bread, btfore him ; he
welcomed Tom, invited him to dine with
him, and produced another egg, which
he placed before his nephew ; Tom pro
ceeded to prepare his egg for eating and
in th process discovered that it w as bad,
but thinking that a capital opportunit to
iaipresshis miserly uncle with his, Tom's,
habits of frugality and closeness, be was
proceeding to pnt salt and pepper, etc , on
his egg, before eating it, ahen his uncle
said :
Tom, don't eat that egg ; it's bad ;
hold on, and I'll bring you another."
But Torn replied, "O, uncle, it's no
matter ; I'd prefer this, and besides, one
tnrwt be saving to gt-ton in the world."
The nncle said no more, and Tom man
aged to consume the spoiled egg ; some
time after the ancle became ill and sent
for his nephews, saying he was going
to die, which be shortly did ; before bis
death he called his nephews about his
bedside, and said :
" William, I leav you stocks and prop
erty worth M00,K."
William bowed hi acknowledgments
and expressed his thanks."
" liichard, I leave you property, stocks,
rt r .il ...... Kmm.A . 1 HA. Omni
aiid dollars.''
Kichard bowed his gratitude.
Tom had been standing by in silent
expectation : the dying miser now direct
ed Lis glassy eyes toward him, and said :
"Tom, you're a fort one in yourself. The
man that run eat bad eggs and say he
likes 'em is not in need of any help from
me." So I say, young men. be smart ; be
as smart as you please ; but don't t too
smart

All," by Prof. Smith anu the Institute.
Discussion 'The spelling book, and
how to use it," M. L. Snyder. Someone
his said, 'The ability to spell brings no
honor, but the lack of it entails di.jgrace."
My school is divided into two grades,
advanced and primary. In the advanced
grades I pronounce from :5 to 4'1 words
and have the pupils write them. I teach
synonyms at the same time by taking up
sime of the word and having them
give synonyms. )i cour, this c.innot
be done with every word in the lesson, j
Often I give words and require those of
opposite meaning.
I teach the primary grade in a similar
way, making due allowance for their dif
ferent attainments. I require them to
lteio every won! with a capital, not be
cause it i proper, but for thesake of the
drill on the capital letters.
fN'ote. This is bud practice: it causes
the pupil to cam til ize wrongly in after
life. JiEr-oKT-R.
I have spelling matches frequently on
Fridiv aft et noon.
Subject open for discussion : time lim
ited to fivt minutes ; no one responding.

"P.ovs are Wanted."
rrof. Kendall on Ppelling, by request.
The young teachers in the county are
w spellers, because we hsve in a
great degree thrown the spelling book
out of the schools. The oider teachers
are good spellers, generally, because they
were thoroughly drilled in the spelling
book. I believe in spelling matches and
spelling bees, but by all means let us
have the spelling book and use it
J. C. Barron, of Middlecreek, gave a
very fine talk in tbe same vein as rrof.
Kendall.
Prof. K. K. Sanner, I'rsina schools :
lYactirnVy, there are do rules in spell
ing. Words are mental pictures. We must
have these pictures so fixed in the mind
that we rscognize them when we nee
them again, no matter whether it be in
one day or in five years.
Mr. Yost : Tbe spelling book has been
abused in this county and elsewhere. I
believe in teaching the meaning of every
word.
Music by rrof. Smith and Institute.
Topical talk, by J. C. Barron :
Are we doing ail we can ; are we doing
all that is expected of as? I propose to
offer some thoughts apon the question :
"What is the best time for bedding tbe
County Institute in order that all may
get the most good out of it ?'
This is the holiday season throughout
the calendar of the world. It seems to
me that coming fram oar schools at this
season, we need rest more than solid
work. I think we are cot in s nib men
tal condition, the majority of us, as to do
solid work and to appreciate solid matter
laid before ns. I think this is not the
best time for holding the County Insti
tute. If this be true, what is the best
time for holding it? I think just before
the opening of the school term in the
fall. I am opposed to taking any vote of
the teacheri on the subject ; it ought to
be decided by the County Superintend
ent, and by him alone. At this time
teachers are not in a condition mentally
b vote honestly on tbe snhject. It should
come before the s hoots bexin.
1'iof. J. V. Mf??e : Would not favor
holding the Institute before the opening,
but would favor a time a month or so
after Uie schools opened.

Paper by Siistf Id I'lotts, of Berlin,
r a. ' Aims in Primary Teaching."
In nograds is so much required and
accomplished as in" the priiaary grade.
The instruction and studies should be
such as not only to discipline the mind,
but to store it with useful knowledge.
Kvcry advanced teacher knowshow weary
is the work of "nnteaching" what has
been taright amiss, and so taught in the
primary grades. Obedience is to be in
sisted on. Not the obedience of the
dumb animal ; not the dogged obedience
of the slave ; but the cheerful obedience
given out of Ibe enlightened conscien
tiousness of the child.
The aim of object teaching is to train
tbe eye and inculcate the correct use of
language. Tbe moral nature of the child
must be cultivated. Better fora child to
grow up in ignorance than without
properly cultivated moral nature.
Discussion "The proper basil for grading
teachers' salaries." An old question. Boards
differ. Some take a certain total, say 12,
and for each fraction, say one-half, over that,
deduct a certain amount, and for each frac
tion, as one half, under 12, add a certain j
amount. Other grade by the experience In
teaching postessed by the applicant. I think
directors should py according to the char
acter of the work.
Remarks on the subject by the County
Superintendent. It is tbe place and should
be the business of the teachers losuggert to
the directors, and not to command them. It
is not generally known that the teacher who
holds a Pcrmaunel certificate can go to a
Board and make a contract for three years ;
and a teacher holding a Professional certifl
cate may make a contract for two years.
Queries:
' How do you teach your pupils to do neat
manuscript work T" Referred to Prof. Meese.
By having them work neatly.
j "What would you do to correct habitual
j failure to prepare lessons bcire recitation?"
Referred to Trof. C. F. Liveugood.
I would have them prepare the lesson, aud
if tbey failed to do so I would resort to such
punishment as detention at recess, etc.
"Give us your plan for putting np school
work." Referred to Prof. Kendall.
To answer in full would take too long. 1
may say, require neitaess, accept no shoddy
work, and no blottelor disfigured manu
scripts; insist on all pupils using tbe same
size and style of paper.

Talk by Prof. Nuss :
The day is coming when having one man
do all the talking and the teachers do all tbe
listening will be out of vogue, and the sys
tem of co-work will be in vogue.
We must ground our work on the prin
ciples in the child's mind. The Institute in
Tenntylvania has been undergoing a process
of evolution.
' First, was the period of subject matter.
Second, the period of methods.
Third, we are now entering the period of
principles.
Nobody can prepare himself for teaching
simply by reading books on psychology, or
' Theory of Teaching"
Question : "How would you make physi
ology interesting in the school V Prof.
Noss referred the query to Pruf. Schmucker,
! of tbe Indiana, Pa., State Normal, who aaid :
j 1st You must have a good sharp knife
'. and a pair of sharp scissors.
2J. You need to make acquaintance with
and have your pupils do, a great deal or dis
secting.
To teach physiology you want to dissect
parts of animals corresponding to tbe part
of the human body they are studying.

County Suerintendenl of Cambria Co.,
J. W. Leech :
Ouee&tential element of a teacher's success
can't begot out of books; it can't be bought ;
that is, good common sense. I am not say
ing anything against old methods. If you
as a teacher can't apply tbe new methods,
then apply tbe old. I can go to Johnstown
on a morning train, but if I can't get the
train I can walk, though I can't get there
so soon ; yet I'll get there, all tbe same.
Talking svbools can't be a success.
Prof. Schmucker, of the Indiana (Pa.)
S'ate Normal School :
Science Teaching in tbe schools. This
will in the future, I think, solve many of
the problems that are interesting tbe
teachers of to day. Let everything be done
in the Scientific spirit ; that is, in the spirit
that takes nothing fur granted, bearing in
mi ud that there are many things that we
believe that we cannot prove. In other
! wards, there fire difft'rent deirrees of nerlain.
,y In scienc- teaching, teach tbe pupil to
examine a larpe number of instances before
coming to a conclusion. Be careful never
to give your pupils an answer that tbey can
liod out for tbemselve.

Talk on Arithmetic, by Prof. Kendall,
Principal of Somerset Schools :
" I knew long division at ten yean old ;
the comparison of magnitude is mastered in
long division ; written arithmetic bears tbe
same relation to the general subject that
book keeping does to the arrangement of ac
counts ; tbe pencil Is used when tbe num
bers are too large to be easily retaiued in tbe
memory.
When we look at mental arithmetic we
see many a problem of well-nigh forgotten
love.
There is a fish whose head is six inches
long, the tail ia as long as tbe head and one
half the body ia as long as ths bead and
tail bow long is tbe fish 7
One wonders why tbe rascal that invented
this problem didn't measure bis flsb?
Mental arithmetic was banished from the
schools, but It is nowbe-ing returned to them
and all the county superintendents with
whom I am acquainted are pushing it back
into the schools, and consequently are fa
voring it ; there are several hundred differ,
ent examinations throach wbich tbe candi
dates far the dilicrent portions in lite are re
spectively required to pass before entering on
tbera ; when a county superintendent visits
a school be places more stress on arithme
tic than on anything else ; J think that
mental arithmetic will some day take the
place of written arithmetic; cultivate neat
ness, and put mental arithmetic into your
schools.

Ir. T. B. Num continued his instructions :
Attention directed to tbe educational inter-e-U
ofOruiauy What young men go into
the; mechanical shops of tbe country with
the beat advantages 7 If you make this in
quiry of the managers of the sboa, yon will
b told that Oermans have decided advanta
ges over American boys, because of their
studies in tbe German schools ; the best mu
sical instruments are by German makers ;
clergymen read tbe theological workVof Ger
man authors ; physicians study tbe German
works ; all nations borrow from Germany,
but Germany borrows little or nothing from
anybdfly else-! take out of American educa
tional theories all that has come from G. r-
man source, ana mere will on very little
left of our system ; we Cannot uke the inii
gmnts from any conntry as fair5-representa
tives of that country. . ;
On account of Germany's being u monar
chy, Germany na reach results much more
quickly than we can. Tj illustrate; The
tescbing of the alphabet before teaching
reading had about 1ST0 been ' abandoned ia
all tbe schools of Prussia except in one lit
tle province ; the Prusniou Parliament met
and passed a law forbidding the teaching of
tbe alphabet in the empire forever ; this did
it at o.ioe ; we couldn't do that in our coun
try we wouldn't want to do it ; it was cot
Birmarrk so much as Pcatalozzl that placed
the imperial crown of all Germany on the
head of King William at Versailles in 1870 ;
I hope to see tbe day when there will be
compulsory school law here in Pennsylva
nia ; the state kaa a right to protect Itself
against ignorance; in Germany tbe whole
child is in school aot only tbe memory,
not only tbe eyes, but tbe whole child ia in
school ; manual training is provided all
girls do needls work, knitting etc , in the
schools ; ths books of tba pupils Irt German
schools are tbin books; tbe Germans place
little stress on memory cultivation, except as
to gems from authors, wbich are memoriz
ed ; tbe Herman teacher bates sham teach
ing worse than be bates tbe devil ; the Ger
man system baa its drawbacks, but it is to
day the leading educational system of the
world.

cents ; then you waut a couple of dissecting
needles made by inserting common need
les, eye-end first, into a wooden handle ;
then you want a sharp knife for each indi

be being abs;nt, the next subjact was taken
up.
" A Graded Course of Study for Conntry
Schools," opened by J. F. Baker. He thinks
tbat the State is not ready for a graded
course.
Prof. Kendall, of Somerset schools, thinks
that we are ready for such a course ; thinks
all that Is necessary is for boards of directors
to adopt such a course.
They have such a course in Ohio, and
their teachers accomplish more thau we do
in Pennsylvania. Another requirement is a
Central High School tbat is to say, a school
to which all the advanced pupils of a cer
tain township may be sent foi instruction
in tbe higher branches.
Question by.
" Would tbe gentleman have a Central
High School for every township?"
Mr. Kendall : " The boroughs of Somerset
county would perhaps be the proper points
for the Central Schools."
Question by
" What would you do with pupils coming
in a month or two late?''
Mr. Kendall : " Simply pnt tbera where
they beloug."
County Superintendent Berkey said he
was heartily in favor of a graded course :
hopes the time will soon come when there
will be such a course ; there are too many
dashes ; the average number of spelling
c'asses in tbe schools last year was eleven ;
this is too many.

"The teacher must know more than the
mere narrow textbook ; I want to rpeak
more on the progress we have made ; In 1870
history was introduced into the schools ; in
18S5 physiology was introduaed ; originally,
I believe, tbe school term was three months,
then it was increased to (bar, and lastly lo
six months ; we will nave eight and nine,
and perhaps ten months, hereafter ; some
counties do have tea months now ; we can
do what others have done ; we must teach
our pupils business ; there must be a busi

that we teach ; while your time here has
been increased by lengthening the term,
wbilt you have made progress, your salaries
bare not been increased."

it resolved,
1. Tbat we recognize a growing interest ia
education throughout tbe county.
2. That we commend tbe teachers and
directors for tbeir attendance during the

weather ; fur it ia to us a harbinger of better
days, ushering in a new era that will bring
light to all.
3. That our most hearty thanks are here
by tendered to the instructors for their earn
est aud valuable work during the week ; to
tbe musicians for tbeir excelent music ; to
the people of Somerset for the cordial recep
tion given to the members of tbe Institute.
4. Ttiat we recognize in J. M. Berkey au
earnest and efficient worker in the educa

congratulate him on his success.
5. That we tender our thanks to the min

erals, and be sure to label and number them,
also state the locality from wbich the speci
men came ; locality is specially important.
A specimen which it is not known whence
it came is almost valueless. You can form
a scale of hardness, as follows : Softer than
copir, softer than a knife, softer than glass,
harder thau glass.
To determine the true color of a trans
parent mineral, draw it over a whetstone,
and tbe streak left in the whetstone is the
color. If the mineral is opaque, tbe streak
U usually the same color as the mineral.
Color in minerals, particularly transparent
ones, is usuully due to the presence of a
slight amount of impurity. The color of
an auiriuysl is due to a small amount of
manganese.
The protective marking of animals is a
most interesting study. Tbe fish is so mark
ed as to be protected thereby from birds in
t'ie air and from uahes in tbe water. Our
birds are dark colored. We have few flower
ing trees in our woods, hence if tbe birds
were brightly colored they would be con
spicuous to tiawks, etc ; but, being dark
colored, tbey resemble, at least tbey do not
contrast with, the foliage of the forest.
Our common potato is merely one of the
arrangements of nature, whereby tbe life of
tbe plant is continued over winter, in order
for tbe production of seed in tbe second
year.

Thirty-Five Soldiers and Many In
dians Killed.
Last Monday morning while the soldiers
were disarming Big Foot and his band in
the Bad Lands after their surrender, a fight
took place wbich resulted in tbe killing of
about 150 Indians and 3a of tbe soldiers, in
cluding Captain Wallace, with a number
wounded.
Pink RirxiK, S. D., Jan. 4. There is a cor
don of troops drawn around the hostile In
dians now, by wbich arrangement the reds
are practically hemmed in. At the princi
pal railway stations along tbe edge of the
reservation State trooja are quartered. A
general closing in will be made this
week, and there will be trouble. Tbe line is
drawn between the Indiaas and the Bad
Lands.
While engaged in burying the Indian vic
tims of the Wounded Knee fight yesterday
the soldiers were attacked by hostiles, but
the latter were driven off and no deaths, are
reported .
A decisive battle between the soldiers and
Indians is expected in a few days.
