great deal.

hundred and eighty teachers in the coanty

teachers are all provided with seats.
A very pretty wedding wss celebrated in

A nam'w of years sg two well-known
tailors of this place laid down their "gooses"
and borrowing guns left tr the woods in
pursuit of game. Early the same evening
they returned to town with a farmer's wag
on loaded with turkeys they bad ahot dur
ing the day. They thought of coarse that
their game waa all of the very wildest varie
ty and were greatly astounded a few days
later wben a prominent farmer came to
town and brought suit against them for the
price of the turkeys. He alleged that the
tailors bad gotten into his bain yard and
shot every one of his fiwls. It ia needless
to add that the kaichts of tbe thread and
needle paid the bill.

A speech of the late Counselor Hugus is
recalled by the recent Democratic victory.
The morning following Cleveland's election,
eight years t0, the Counselor made it hia
special duty to visit all the federal office
holders (at that lime there were a number) in
town and sum marily discharge them. Final
ly meeting the general aent of the Western
Union Telegraph Company on tbe street, he
halted bim with the remark, "You are the
very fellow I have beea looking for. The
United States government has no further
need of your services; yoa can consideryour
telf discharged." Tbe agtnt was lost for a
reply bnt at last stammered out ; Why, Mr.
Hugus, lam not employed by the general
government." No niatter," replied the
Counselor, " yoa are discharged aayhow."
Prior to making tbe triennial assessment
for this county ia tbe fall of 13'31, tbe Coun
ty Commissioners directed the assessors in
the townships through which tbe right-of-way
of the South Penn railroad pass-is, to re
turn all of that company's property as taxa
ble for county and township purposes. This
was accordingly done, and the returned val
uation of the Company's property is about
$175,000. Tbe total tax levied on this
amount, about 15 mills, is $2,Gi5. The direc
tors of the South Penn were duly notified of
the action of the County Commissioners and
were resjoctfully repeated to "pony np."
They paid no attention to ths reqiett of the
local authorities an! now the Commission
ers hsve directed that the Sooth Penn prop
erty be returned as unseated lands and be
exposed to sale at the regular Treasurers'
sale of such lands.
vVe believe we voice the sentiment of the
entire audience who listened to Prof. John
B. DeMotte in the Opera House last even
ing, when we pronounce his lecture on The
Harp of the Senses; or the Secret of Char
acter Building," the most entertaining and
instructive ever delivered before a teachers
institute in this coanty. Prof. IteMotle is
a delightful speaker, and, without making
any attsmpt at oratory, he carries his aud
ience with him entrrely unconscious of time.
Tbe illustrations rendered what be said in
tensely interesting and left an impression
upon the minds of teachers and all others
present that will go home with them and
furnish fxd for thought for a long time to
come. His appeal to society in behalf of tbe
young men of to-day was very effective and
started the thought of his audience in an en
tirely new channel. DeMotte ia snared ofa
warm welcome should he ever return to Sum
set. Some days since an item appeared in a pa
per in an adjoining eoanty to the eftVct that
at the recent adjourned court. Judge Long
enccker had adopted a rule which would
in future, prevent attorneys from other
counties practicing in oar courts, and forth
with several of oar coanty contemporaries
published the item in their Iocs! columns,
and the editor of one of them took hia ear,
and with it gravely wrote an article giving
the iez n or tie adoryloa of tie rule men
tioned. Tbe report of the adoption of tbe
rule wss published and commented upon by
the press of tbe S'.ate, and in not a lew in
stances severe strictures were passed upon
Court and the Bar for enacting it. No such
role wss made and to many it will be a
matter of surprise, that papers published in
tbs cooaty would be so readily mislead in
regard to a matter they could bars so easily
informed themselves of.
Tbe rale relative to non-resident attor
neys, adopted a numb.-r ef years ago, is as
follows i
" Aa attorney at law admitted to practice
in these coaru. not a resident in the coan
ty, shall cams some resident member of the
bar, npon whom in any particular case ia
which such ooo -resident attorney has ap

upon the attorney may be served; and in
default of this the posting of the rule or
notice ia the oJSos of the Prothoootary or

Teachers' -Institute.
273 of the 2SO Teachara Prwaant.
The first meeting of the Thirty-Sixth An
nual Session of tbe Somerset Ctmnty Teach
ers' LaMitate was "mighty interestia" aa
eld Jed Prouty would have it, and tbe ven
erable old court room resoanded with ap
plause and good cheer. The seats In the
court room were nearly all occupied and
wherever one's eye chanced to rest it was
greeted by happy, laughing faces. The
roses on the " school manna" faces were as
radient as tbe roses of Jan and the glow
that suffused the cheeks of the yooog rrei
wss a healthful indication that they a -e 1 11
prepared to weild the birch when occasion
arises. Certainly a more intelligent body of
teachers never before assembled in this coun
ty and the Interest manifested has rarely if
ever, never been excelled.
At exactly 1.-35 o'clock yesterday after
noon County Superintendent Berkey called
tbe teachers to order. There were no flog
gings, no impatience, no excuses, in short
Lothing to ruffle tbe temper of the teachers
and everything moved along as smoothly as
though the institute bad been ia session for
tbs past six weeks. Sept. Berkey said that
it had beea tbe custom for many years to
Open institute with singing that good old
hymn "All II ail the Power of Jasus Name.'
Tbe refrain was at once taken up by the vast
lemblage and aong with great vigor. Rev.
Uarkry, of tbe Somerset Lutheran Church,
then read 25 Matt., U to 31 verses. He fol
lowed tbe scriptural reading by an earnest
and fervent prayer asking that God's richest
blessings might fall upon the teachers and
assist them in receiving the instruction pre
pared for them, so that at the close of the
week tbey might return to their labors better
qualified to perform the duties before them
and to more actively labor for the welfare
of the children intrusted to their care.
At the conclusion of Mr. Harkey's prayer.
SupL Berkey addressed the institute briefly.
He said fellow teachers it affords me great
pleasure to greet yoa. We are about to enter
upon the work of tbe thirty-sixth annual
institute. The programme prepared ia tbe
result of out best e Aorta sad I am sure that
with your generous co operation, which has
always been so freely extended on former
occasions, it will be tbe best in tbe history
of the county. All of the preliminary work
that bas heretofore retarded are earlier ses
sions, thia year has been performed ia ad
vance, and we are now at a few minutes be
fore two o'clock ready to enter upon and en
joy a full afternoon's session. I now hare
the pleasure of introducing to you Prof.
John B. DeMotte, of Chicago.
Prof. DeMotte looks like a solder; he wore
a sack coat buttoned all the way down. His
face is strong and muscular. A sandy mus
tache covers a mouthful of beautiful natural
teeth. Tbe movements of the upper part of
his face speak almost as powerfully as his
lips. He haa a remarkably clear and sweet
voice and words flow from his mouth with
out any apparent effort on his part. He
spoke Monday afternoon on "Sacrifices."
He prefaced his remarks with the assertion
that the race of prophets is dead and that it
is absolutely impossible for anyone to tell
what is going to bapn to anything in the
world to-morrow. VVe can't tell beforehand
what ia going to turn up. And still ibeirsre
certain lines that run tnrough our natural
mental and spiritual Iswa upon which we
can depend. There is only one thing we are
absolutely certain of, and that is that we
must go hence. No oae cares to stop to in
quire about that, Saccess means sacrifice.
and success is to be attained by no other
meaits. Earthly possessions can be be
queathed but intellect can not. There is no
law of heredity. Ths fiiat lesson to learn is
w hat are we fitted for. When are we at our
bast capacity ? You can not tell. Discourage
ment is no indication that you ere unsuccess
ful, aa you may learn years afterwards. In
spiration is shout ths faireat test of success.
If the occasion never comes in your lives
teachers when you can throw down

We must ail learn to sacrifice " leisure for
pleasure." We ail know the pleasure to be
derived from spelling bees, corn h takings
aad kindred amusements, but we mast earn
to forego them until we have erected the
foundation upon which we would build our
lives. Success in life can only be obtained
tbrocgh aacrifioes made when character is
formicg.
A few years ago a gentleman, whoes check
is worth probably ten millions of dollars
and whoes name is known all over the land,
took his sen to a well-known sdacatiecal
nstitution. Tbe father was a long while in
finding suitable surrouudings for his son
but st last selected one of the moat eiep-nt
places in the city in which Le installed bim.
But before leaving him he turned to me and
said " there is one thing my son must Lave.
Hs must Lave hot cakes and honey for
break fast every morning." I turned to my
wife, who was present, with the remark.
that boy ia no good." Tbe father bad
gained his success by early sacrifice. Hs
commenced life making spokes with a draw
knife in a little one-story hovel, but was
unwilling that bis son should sacrifice dis
sipation for self discipline.
Prof. DeMotte was warmly applauded at
tbe conclusion of his remarks.
Prof. Charles W. Desse, of the Indiana
Normal School, followed. He aaid i
"I never appear before a body of
teachers without tbia thought : How differ
ent it is to speak to a body of teachers to
day and ten years ago. We speak to teach
ers to-day who are as far advanced in the
science of pedagogy as were the institute
lecturers of thst dsy." He then gsve a very
lucid an! comprehensive talk on tbe ab
stract work of arithmetic. Prof. Deane
scorns ths idea of teaching scholars to mul
tiply above 12 times 12. Nine plus nine is
the highest possible addition a child is call
ed upon to rform mentally. Teachers can
make better Use of their time than by teach
ing scholars to multiply abovs 12 times 12.
Tbe highest of all divisions is 63 by 9.
Memorizing tables is not tbe proper wsy to
ttech arithmstic There are only 30 facts in
the multiplication table as you need teach it.
Thought, the back bone of arithmetic, is
the faculty to be trained, after that mental
calculations are readily made. There are
only five essential qualifications: addition,
subtraction, multiplication, division and
thought. The tendency has been to carry
the first four to the extremes, with only a
little baby think. Il is thought that we
want to develop.
Prof. Drane is a gentleman of handsome
presence. Has deep black eyes and hair and
thinks so rapidly that he frequently gets his
mouth so full of words that he tries to get
three or four out at a time. He made a fav
orable impression opon tbe teachers.
Piof. C. E. Leslie, or Chios go, was next
introduced as tbe gentleman wbo would
give instruction in music He is large
man with a bushy growth of hair cor
aring his face. Hs stepped quickly to the
front and after nodding his bead to the au
dience said that in view of the very flatter
ing introduction given him he was a little
disappointed that he was not . greeted
with applause. This speech waa greeted
with an outburst that made the windows
rattle. It is a hard matter to describe Prof.
Leslie. He talks at a high pressor speed
aad Injects so many humorous remarks in
to what be has to say that be keeps his au
dience in aa uproar, notwithstanding be
chides them for laughing. II Prof. Leslie's
first afternoon can be taken as an index of
wbat will follow, he will prove the most
popular instructor of tbe institute. Hia
method of teaching ia very simple and com
prehensive and is sure to bear rich fruit.
The Prof, is a whole band-wagon by him
self and there are no frills on him, either.
Dr. E. E- White, of Columbus, Ohio, a
dignified gentleman probably 5 years of
age, was next introduced. Tbe Dr. is tbe
author of several well known common
school text-books tsagbt in this county,
and he waa accorded a most generous wel-
I tome by the teachers.

We dare say Ibis village is entirely differ
ent from any other in tbe country. Tbe

A Fight to the Finish.
Both Fictions of the Local Demoo
rtCT " Out for Blood."
Will Fisher Best" Coffroth?
It is to be a fight to the finiah between tbe
Democratic factions in this county for tbe
spoils under the Cleveland sdmin-'stration.
Both sides are stripped to the waist, and
each is confident cf besting the other.
The" uncle" cf the Dtrwcrat comes out in
his own bsnd write" and saytthe Uibald
wants " to break, if possible, the unbroken
phalanx of the unswerving and united De
mocracy of this county," and psys bis com
pliments to the members of his party who
won't "run wid de mrchine," by calling
them a " few disgruntled, straggling fault
finders." Meanwhile the new Democraticorgin. ths
Yedstti, rips its farty organization up the
back, declare it utterly incompetent, and
demands that the party chairman hereafter
be selected from among tbe Democrats resi
dent of tbe county seat. The Vtdtttt also
takes occasion to boost ths Central Demo
cratic Society, presided over by leader
Fisher.
The Coffroth wing hav patting on a bold
front, but tbey can't disguise the fact that
they are mighty oneaay. Of course the Gener
al's loquacity is not on tap, and this must
be tsken as sn indication that he Is taking
sdvaatage of every means to reatore hia
prestige. His right bower, John H. Uhl,
Esq., bas made several tripe to Harrisburg
and Philadelphia during tbe past ten days.
The object of Mr. Ubl'a visits are believed to
have been for tbe purpose of assuring the
State leaden that the Oeneral has " done
penance" for opposing them at the last Har
risburg convention and ia ready to carry out
their behests in the future. Mr. Uhl, spat
apon his bate in the most approved pisco
torial style, but even then It Is feared that
it was not vary tempting, since there are no
fish to catch In Somerset county, excepting
a pair of alternate. (Tbe delegates never are
allowed to go to conventions )
In soma quarters it is believed thst Mr.
Uhl had another object in view. It is inti
mated that be considers himself about the
pmper siaed Democrat to fill the pension
agency for Wsrteru Peanaylvania, and that
his visits to Hsrrisborg were for the purpose
of soliciting theiadascce of Privste Secre
tary Tste, who is close to the esr of Secreta
ry Karri ty, an! being a raaideat of thia Con
gressional diairict will probably be consult
ed aboat all appointment that are to be
made for the good of the party in this sec
tion.
Leader Pisber seems to think ths: the time
bss arrived for him to "aa ax nix." How
long be will continue to think so no one
can telL Fisher is nothing if not sggreasive.
He opens fire on the skirmish line and keeps
it np after the battle is declared off. It is
said of him that be does not know wben he
is whipped but keeps on fighting. He is
now engaged ia the bigjrest political bstlle
of his lifs and if be does not come oat vic
torious it will not be because he has not got
his lines perfectly formed. Oa tbe result of
tbe present fight depends all hs has been
battling for for years and if be fail it
will not be on accoant cf generalship.
Mr. Fisher's career la Somerset coanty
politics Is uniqae. Born ia this town, be
enlisted In tbe anion army when 1? years of
sge and served outil he was carried from
the field of battle, as was believed at the
tisae, fatally wounded. His youthfuiness
combined with his vigorous constitution
and indomnita'sle will refused to succumb
to old Mr. Death, aad ia due coarse of time
he was released from the hospital. Being
unfitted for military daiy. by reason of the
four perforations made in his body by a
rebel minnle ball, he was honorably dis
charged from ths service. Then Mr. Fisher
drifted to the Pacific slope and n ughed it in
the gold mines for a camber of years. He
only met with moderate success in the mines
and finally was compelled to abandon Cali
fornia altogether, by reason cf ths cocstant
suffering be endured from the wounds re
ceived in the arasy. Before reaching the
East his iafiimstiss increased until he wss
entirely disabled, and it wss only after spend
ing several months at a wayside tavara thst
he recuperated sufficiently to continue his
journey to Dy ton, Ohio, where te entered
tbe Soldier's Home. While aa in cats of
the Hume he concluded ta apply for a pen
sion, bat before bis spplication was acted
upon bs became disst.sd with the regu
lations of that institution and cams to Ssm
erset where he engagsd ia bu tinea. He
hardly took time to renew his acquaintance
with the boys of his youth before be com
menced to take an active prt in local Dem
ocratic pclilics. His ability aud fih'.u-.g
qualities were recognised by the leaders of
his party and hia election as chairmaa ot
the Democratic Coanty Committee toon fol
lowed. He was re-elected to that effice sev
eral limes aud finally, making up bis mind
to have some say in the party couaciis, and
being forthwith turned down, he concluded
to set up shop for himself. While he has
not been able to dominate over his party
as a "boss," hs Las srade it mighty inhr
eeting for the fallows who have. A little
lees than a year ago, if our memory serves
us correctly, be proclaimed from an imrro
rbed eminence, that he had helped "to
down two bosses in one day." The fiaiis of
that victory hsve not yet materialized, and
it renisir.s to be seen whether any w.il drop
into his basket when the smjke cf the im
pending battle has blown away.
Fisher's place cf business is convenient to
the post office and it is hinted that he has
hsd bis eye on it constantly since, the elec
tion, as if bs were keeping tab of the pat
rons of the oftfee aad comparing tbem with
the patrons of his book store, ia crier to
see which brings in the biggest revenue. He
bas not announced his candidacy as yet,
but it is probable that he would not pro
claim it from the bouse tops even though
he should decide to enter the lists. We
rather imagine that he would jast as leave
say wbo is to have the poetotCce aa to have
it himself.
Democrats all over the coanty know that
a fight to the finiah between the " bosses,
is on the tapis and tbey are getting mighty
anxious to know who is going to win.
A party of prominent yonr.g Democrats,
representing tbe most important precincts
in the county, met ia this place one night
last week for the purpose of d seussing an!
perfecting their plan cf battle. We hsTe
no means of learning tbe result of their con-
Cererjce, but judging from the boayaccy of the
participants they have beard from Uarrity
and will be "strictly in it" when the spoils
are distributed.
If tbe Fisher wicg controls the patron
age, which now seems probable, they wiil
likely have one of the prettiest little family
fights ever seen, in case a deiuty-coliector-ship
of internal revenue is given to thia
county. C. P. Holderbaum ia understood to
have bis eye on that particular plum. Mr.
Holderbanra served under Cleveland's form
er administration and is familliar with the
revenue service. It is also rumored that A.
L. G. Hay, Esq , will be an applicant for
the position ia case his father is unsuccess
ful in bis fight for the Meyersdale post
office.
