One of the questions raised at the recent
Teaches" Institute and referred to lleputy
Sate Superintendent Houck, was Shall
children be refitsed almissioa to the schools
cf a district w hoe's parents reside in another
district and who refuse to pay tax in the
district where their childreu attend school?"
Mr. Houck sail that he would advise par
ents to jay tax in the district in which the
children attend kebool, but if they refuse to
pay il he would not have it said of him if
he was a director that te had debarred any
child in this commonwealth from attending
the public schools.
V.'e understand there are rcv.ra! districts
in this county where the above q ;es:;. c has
ben raised and we hope that the school di
rtxtore of them will profit by Mr. Jlouck's
advice. The public schoj'.s should be open
to all.

Prevent Diphtheria.
The Meditral Times says alcohol ia the
prince of antiseptics and in diphtheria the
moi perfect and reliable medieine known.
Diluted wilh equal parts of water and given
in small and repeated dosea the malignant
symptoms of this most fatal malady soon
disappear, and coavaiesence becomes assur
ed. The Times says it is interesting to note
with what facility the alchol dissolves the
dipbtbertrlic eiudalion in the thro ,t, and its
dis'rurtive action upon the irerros of the
disease, which baa been absorbed by the
glacda and gained asceaa to the blood.
The Times recommends that people ex
po -cd to diphtheria use delated a'.chol as a
gargle three or f jar timet a day.

five years, but employed a " house keeper"
and set cp another establishment. His wife,
ho is now 77 years of age, declared bar
w iliinguess to live wilh her leige lord and to
help him earn a living for the family ; but
ten years experience with a housekeeper wat
enough to satisfy " Joe" that he preferred
that manner of living to any other and hs
flatly refused to be conciliated.
The Court advised Keefer to return to bis
wife and make an honest etfort to live with
her in peace and harmony and suggested
that Joseph would be given several months
at a probation period, or until February
court, to e.ect s reconciliation ; meanwhiis he
should contribute the sum of J150 per week
towards his wife's euppoit, and would be
released upon his own recognizance. "Joe"'
rebelled at this suggestion of the Court's and
said that it was impossible for him to make
such a sum of money. The Court then ask
ed him if he pre ferred going to jail aad be
sa;d he did. Consequently he was place!
ia the custody of the Sheriff until the sea
tence of the law that be pay bis wife $1.50
per week is complied with.
The case attracted a large crowd !o the
Court House and the crowd was rewarded
by hearing some Very spirited testimony.

DeaeSie: I see ia our county papers a
notice that the fourth annual session of the
Samerset County Farmers' Institute will
convene in the Court House, at Somerset, on
the 27th inst. The notice referred to was not
authorized by myself, although I had fixed
upon that date as the time for which to ar
range the meeting, aad had so informed
the Secretary of the State Baard of Agricult
ure and a number of persons in our own
couuty, from which, I suppose, the notice
got into the papers.
It is with deep regret thst I nowaaaouace
that owing to kL-kneas in my family, I have
not beta able to djvote the tims to ihe prep
aration of program.-ae, and other details con
nected wilh the meeting, nexteaaary to make
the institute a succuss. Unless circum
stances speedily change it is doubtful wheth
er I could be ia attendance at that date, even
if in the short time left, arrangements for
the nieelin; could be made. I am therefore
under the mrceasity of postponing the insti
tute, until such time as circumstances in my
hutue may rentier it possible for me to give
the ma'te-r my attention. Fersons who had
given their consent to take a place upon the
programme wiil in the moan time please
make their preparation and bold themselves
in readiness to respond when the lime comes.
Very respectfully. &c

"nil nrfl mm.
In my former article (published during
tbe week of the instliate) I showed that
where the relative that ran be csed Instead
of trioor wAV'A, theclause beirg explanato
ry or restrictive tl.ct should cot be pre tiled
by a comma. This leads me to ray aoare
Ihicg'about punctuation, which may be eie
fintd as "the act or art cf markit g wirh
points."
As tbe artificial system taught by the text
books ia falling into disuse, the proper rule
wouid seem to be to use the points ouly ss
guides to the utue, ami not to the a?njju-of
tbe sentence, Shakespeare says " Much vir
tueisinlf." We may say the same of the
com me, when it drops into tbe r'y,Lt place,
otherwise Ihe virtue consists in its ab
sence. Take for instance the follow iog by a
sprightly and agreeable writer, as rendered
by the competitor: "But now, the foot
It. hts, and torch-lighli, and gay parades (,)
if auywhere (.) were 'behind the scenes' .)
wbere the chief actors, for the most lart,
alretcbed their feet upon the tables, snd
'smoked their last cigar.' " Here we hate
nine commas in half a dozen lines, of which
none but the three I have marked are at ail
needed. Of the rest three are used wilh tbe
conjunction and, which seldom needs such
an introduction.
Let me add, any marks -T punctuation
that do not assist us in grasping the sense of
the salhcr or indicate such pauses as the
sens requires, are useless and ofiea mis
leading. The following H from an adver
tisement by one that is a better caterer than
grammarian : " We keep our oysters on ice,
aad are always fresh.' Here the comma
before and is superfluous, and the sentence
itself is misleading, for grammatically speak
ing tlie freshness in tb.s case would be in
the dealer, and not ia tbe oysters.
In each of the following sentences a com
ma is necessary. Insert it so at to express
the true meaning, and you have a good les
son in punctuation.
1. The act is attributed to overwork
causing lost of sleep aad worry over busi
ness affairs.
2. The attorneys for Miller and Reese
asked for a lenient sentence oa account of
the families of the men who are iu needy
circumstances.
3. There is now upon the same spot a
bright new one-story church with chapel at
tached which will cost $tO,n"0.
I was about to add another, but there ap
pears to be a joke lurking there. See if you
caa fiad it. " The other political parties are
just as much opposed to trusts as their plat
forms wiil show."
I bad an item that appeared to have beea
written by some swell-head after aa over
Light debauch. It was about a grocer that
had just moved in, and bis improvements,
and bis stock alt so new, snd the bargains
be had to ctfer, and nearly every third word
was a.iJ. Excuse the commas, as tbey are
art of the lllitstralion or you may treat
them as the boys of the old Normal had to
do when I first taught them to read, skip
them. His next effort probably sounded
something like this: "Owing to the pressure
cf circumstances vboota'.', I have resigned my
position on the laily GiLid, which took ef
fect as soon as the boss came round this
morning."
But to return to our relatives every
sentence must express some act Ot feet as
cribed to the person, place or thing known
as the subject. The foundation being laid, a
rtiative or some ether mode of e;eech may
be employed to introduce additional matter,
generally iu explanation of Ihe how, why
when or where of the act or fact ascribed to
the sutjt-ct. In the sentence, "Dr. Gordon,
who was suffering from nervous prostration,
refused to see sny one," the leading fact is that
'"Dr. Gordon refused to see anyone," and the
relative clause (introduced by wAo) gives the
reason wby be refused.
Who is often equivalent to and he. and
th; and titty u hith to and it, and tAtry. Ex
ample, "Gov. Dinwiddie bad become inter
ested ia the Ohio Company, and ordered
two companies of provincial militia to be
raiseeL" This sentence recites two facts, the
order and the reason for the order. Insert
ing the relative where it properly belong?,
we have "Gov. Dinwiddie. who bad become
interested in the Ohio Company, ordered,"
and having disappeared.
You may now apply this method to th
following example's :
1. He was surrounded by woman, and
they being alarmed made aa outcry.
2. Mr Hugos now holds all the stock
and will dissolve the company.
3. In ihe evening a flue display of fire
works was given, and it is said to have been
the finest ever given by tbe Berlin people.
The grammar cf these senteuces is net at
fault, but wbat think you of this?
" Some of the old residents of Stonyoreek
remember a tragedy occurring upwards of
sixty years 85a." Orthiar "They allowed
some lightning rod men to put up rods for
them as an a ivertinemerit only, and thea
wanted them to sign a paper, which they
found was a jadgmeat note in disguise.''
Them and thrj have got themselves so badly
mixed np here that it may require a lavrsuit
to determine which is '-.
Which sometimes relates to aa act or tvrt
set forth in the preceding part of the sen
tence, as "He was there for any service he
might be called upja to.da, which is more
than caa be said of bra detractors." Correc t
the following to serve as an additional ex
ample: "If we fail to gel the proper sleep
we will live oa brstn capital instead of
brain income, and will result ia brain bank
ruptcy." It &out Is the objective form ofwAo, as
"whom ye ignoraat.'y worship," " by whom
the worlds were made," and it is one of tbe
crucial tefett of a grammarian always ha be
able to use the pyoper form. K'AicA is ofiea
used as an aeijective, as "which road did he
take?"
li'aoM is cai eel the patscssive form of teha
aad tchlch, as "the la 1 whose bouse we oc
cupy." Intert !t ia the fallowing ti make
a complete sentence : "Next cams the tra
ders, the date of their first appearance is
not known." Whe-revcr uht or ui 'eA is us--d
in any form the combination is called a rel
ative clause. RecoLsttuct the following tcn
teeicrw so that each may contaia a relative
clause:
1. My returns from the Timet are !arg?r
than from any other paper, and many of
tlieal are published il larger cities.
2. Cumberland ia protected by the moun
tains that surrouud it, and the velocity of
the wind is broken before it reaches that
city.
Butt out one hut to make room for a rela
tive in each of the follow. ng :
1. A fierce storm passed over the town,
but did no damage to buildinp but utterly
demolished the county bridge.
2. The building caught firs from the
stroke, but fortunately went out before
much damage resulted.
3. We have however plenty of the "dew,"
but in Oaio parlance is known as "corn
juice."' " TL'ncLt Joe."

The Redstone Presbytery.
The Prvsbytery of Redstone held an ad
journed rue-etii.g iii tbe Markle'on Sanitari
um, Uaikletor, Ta , Dec C'.h, beginntrg at
11a.m. The meeting was intended chief!
for 150nferer.ee snd prsyer snd was well at
tended, thirty ministers and eiders being
pretent. The first ijlje-ct. " The Iocpiralion
of the Holy Scriptures," bcice presented in an
a"jl9 and well prepared paper by R?T. Per
rin Baker. A copy of it was requested far
publication iu the I'rrJyirrin hx-uur. The
other subjects presented in twenty minute
speeches and more or lees fully discussed by
members of Presbytery were "The work and
power of the Holy Spirit ia the church and
iu the wirld," " Imparlance of labor for tbe
early conversion of the young," "How can
those who conftantly negleert God's house
be reached?" and the closing subject, "Re
vivalWhat is it, and how can It be secur
ed 7" It was regretted that Dr. Milholland
to whom this subject was aasigrstd, bad so
little time on Wednesday . aornicg because
of other business, making bis remarks of
necessity fragmentary. The discussion was
earnest and practical, and a good spirit per
vaded the meeting.
Rev. Chas. A. Clarke was received from
the Fresbytery of Pittsburg and a call put
into his hands from the congregation of
Rthobotb, in the "Forks of the YougU."
He signified his acceptance of this call aad
arrangements were made for hia early in
stallation. Key. J. G. Black was dismissed
to the Presbytery of Crawfordville, ia the
bounds of which be accepted a ell. An
earnest appeal was direerted to be sent
to Congress ia regard to the closing of
the doors of tbe F-xposition oa Sunday and
the sale of liquor on the grounds.
An appropriate minute was adopted in re
gard to the death of Rev. John W. Scott, D.
D., father-in-law of President Harrison, who
was a member of the Presbytery, of Red
stone tince April, Ki.
Mr. David K. Craighead, a licentiate, was
received from the Presbytery of Kittanning,
and a call from the coagregatioa of Somer
set put into his bauds. He sigaitied his ac
ceptance and arrangements w-re made for
his ordination aad installation. In accord
ance with this, be pn-ached oa Tucseiay af
ternoon, on the text Heb. 121. The sermon
was a superior one, and very satisfactory to
tbe Presbytery. The Presbytery met accor
ding to adj aarumcnt in Somerset in tbe
Presbyterian church or. Wedaeslty even
ing, and the ordination aud installation ser
vices took place in the presence of a large
aad interested audience. Rev. J. C. Maic-y,
of West Newton, molerator of the Presbyte
ry, presided, proposed the constitutional
questions and made the -ordaining prsyer.
Rev. W. A. Edie, of Connelisviile, preached
tbt sermon. He was assisted ia the services
by Rev. J. B. I.yle, of ecottdale. Rev. John
M. BarntU gave tbe charge to the putor
and Rev. J.C. Maloy to the people. The
Presbytery adjourned and the newly ordain
ed minister, now a member of the Presby
tery, as his first official act, pronounced the
benediction. After this the membert of the
church and cougregatioa came up and took
their new pastor by the hand ia cordial
gretting and welcome. Mr. Craighead has
supplied the Somerset r.-esbyterian church
for a number of months and has given proof
of his ability anil suctss has attended his
labora. We trust a bright and successful
path is before him.
Tbe Presbytery was entertained by
friends at the Markleton Sanitarium. As
the members lookel at tbe location, the
buildings and the appointments of the iLsti
tutiou they exprestsj theaisclves as greatly
pleased.

Weelnesday morning by the president, Jo
nas M. Cook, a goodly number of directors

Somerset borough school toevrd, elelivered a
brief but elo'i'ient address of welcome.
J. L. W. Seihert, Hon. A. J. Colbora and
Capt. W. H. Sanne-r, briefly discussed eda
catiem of the past and the advantages as we
now have it."
"Sanitary needs of school houses and

it was ably handled by Dr. W. S. Kuhlmau,
followed by Aaron J. Blough. and I). Cortp
to:i. At the Wedueselay tftamoon session
eighty directors responded to roll call. Tbe
President appointed S. A. Ketidall. of Rcck
wood, ejuery Manager. D. Comp- 1 read
aa interesting and well prepared prt;cr on
"the need; of an annua! county eoaven
tion of Directors required acd sustained by
law."
Mr. Compton advocated the enacting of a
law providing f,,r such annua! coavi-nti ii,
making attendance of Directors compulsary;
the State to pay all necessary expenses.
John W. Iilik, cf Elk Lick, 'thought the
cumber of Directors for each school district
should be reduced to three and that they
should receive a salary of not leas than $15
per year. Hon. Je-hn C. Wellcr said that a
bill providing for the eapenset of Directors,
while in attendance at their Annual Con
ventions, bad been brought before the last
Legislature and come within cue vote ol
passing.
" The purpose and value of the Slate ap
propriation " was diseased by Rev. J. L. V".
Seibert. He said that the value of the ap
prcpriation was exactly $.S,f.jO, .), of which
.'W,OjO come to this county, an average of
$lJu.o. per school. Last year this county's
proportion of the appropriation was $14.
