complimentary references to his work,
says :

Since the professor has proved himself
to bo such an efficient worker in the

An Exsel!ent Concert.
The pe iplu of this community have
rarely, if ever Tieiire, had un opiMirtunity
of hearing a cMiic-rt of s-ich high order
and artistic merit as that given by the
Wilczek Cotii-crt Company in the pe:a
House, Friday evening. Kvery perfor;n
er on the program appeared to the ln-st
advantao,) m.j ;i!i jirt-artist or pre-eminent
ability. The violin solos of Mr. and
Mrs Wile.ek were tiie features of the
evening and Imih were given repeated
enoires by the etithusia.-tie audience.
Mrs Wilczek unfortunately broke the
neck of her violin a very valuable in
strument early in the evening and the
audience was therefore compelled to
forego the plias-.iro of hearing the gifted
young couple play a duet. The tenor so
loist, Mr. Magioni !. Pas juali, was a rev
elation to hi audience, who, by the way,
had heard some exceptionally lino sing
ing during the week by teachers in-t
tute soloits. He c mijiletely i-ipturetl
his audience w ith his first lr.imlier and
gra-efuily re;ond';d to (wo encores. The
soprano. Mine, Schultze-W ichmanu, is
oiitchu-.-ied in the excellent company she
is traveling in, although she showed oc
casional giimpsos of having Tkh.ii a very
exi-ellent vo-alist at one time, perhaps
w hen h w:v a few year younger. The
pianist, Mr. Krnost do Iliva, is a gitli-1
performer and afforded great pleasure to
all w ho attended Friday night's on.-ert
by his in irveious playing. Manager
Caseliecr is to be congratulated upon hav
ing sei-urel the Wilczek Company for
his house of amusement.

having been the first tiunty Superintend

interested in tleir advancement Mid w el
fare, of the admiration and resi-ct he has
over lieeu held in by the teachers and
scholars, and of tha great tendurnoss w ith
which they refer to "I" tide Joe,' now in
his declining years. Thecane, he said, was
purchased with a fund raised by vidunta
rv sulscr;ptioiis on the part of teachers
actively engaged in the schools and was
presented as a token of their affliction
and veneration fortlu Professor.
"I'licle Jih'" occupied a seat on the
platform and when he arose to accept the
cane he was greetejl with tumultuous ap
plause by the audience, which filled every
available inch of space in the Court room.
He inadeanumlier of humorous remarks

When the SS'.h annual ssio:i of the
! Somerset County Teachers' Institute ad -i
journel s:iip die at noon, Fric'ay, there
; passed ii.n history one of the. mot jirof
itableand inis.rliiiit meetint.'si'f niiiimm
! sclufcd iilucators ever held in this county.
' As indicated in our last issue thev. ti-k
was d"voted to active, earnest work on
' the part of Ixith teachers and inslnieters,
! and the lwnelits derived lonst manifist
themselves in the vari-.us schisil rotans
of the county and niilt in permanent
good to the cause of education. The in
fluence exerted by such eminent instnn
tors a lrs Waller, Noss and p.ruuibaiigh
is of inestimable value to teachers. Tiiey
incite a desire for a inoro li'wrrl ei.a
tion and demonstrate that tha school
master's is an honorable profession, fubd
with the loftiest ambitions to which noble
men and women can a-pire, not with
standing the fact that in many oases his
services are unappreciated and but Jwiorly
compensated.
Such a man as Ir. P.rumba.igh, for in
stance, can not fail to bean inspiration to
all who teach in the schools of this Com
monwealth. Although still a young man
the lines of his scholarly face Is-ar traces
of devotion to hard and silent study. The
same lines also reveal that he is master of
the subject he chooses to spcik ujsiii.
Atid what pleasure it is to hear him. He
us"s no catchy phrases to please the ear,
but his every sentence is coinjuised of tlie
purest Knglish and conveys information
that :uu.t at once entertain and instruct.
lr. Itriimbnugh's numerous addresses
ls.'fore the institute upon " The Teacher,"
Primary Heading," "The Three .Ts of
Kdueutio'i, " " Advanecil Heading,"
"1'u n;-t ion if Nature in lalm-ation,"
"How to Study and Teach Literature," a
B-ni which would siil)i-e for ail evening
lecture, "Moral Kducation ; or 1a liiui
Fii-st 15ea Man," were the most pleasing
featurc-sif the wek and were eagerly
looked forward to by Is tii teachers and
the general public.
lrs. Waller and Xoss ImiIIi gave valua
ble instruction galhered from years of ex
perience in the profession and fiom their
r.dvantagi-ons positions for learning w hat
is liest and w holc.souic for the schools of
Pennsylvania.
"sibmt of a toLdof iHeachei-s employed
in the schools of the county were present
at the institute. f the four alcnl ones,
two weie "sisters" employed in the
schools of New It tltimore iKU-ough, and
the remaining two were Miss Kelle Ship
ley, of Meyersda'e, who w as detained at
home by sickneis and Karl Statler, of"
Ogle tow iisjiip, hose aisence was uiiac
coiinted for.
The lecture cor.rse w as up to the high
staiivlard of former years In fact it w as
taken as a whole, an improvement over a
Handier of preceding courses. The "Pro
tect ion-Free Tride Pebate" T.etwiH-n Hon.
K. llorr ami Hon. M. 1. Harttr at
tracted an immense audience. With very
few exceptions the audience was delight
ed with the entertainment. Mr. Harter
opened the debate. He is an excellent
speaker, without any of the arts of tiie
orator, and unfortunately on this isitisiou
on the wrong side of the feii-e His re
marks, however, were iin-.ie-t:ona! -y
the best elucidation of the Free Trade
theory ever heard in this county, and
were nivcn an attei.live hearing by t!ie
.i.i.iii'ini', ;. majority f v. horn were stal
wart Ib-pul licaus and !iel:evers in a jiro-t.-ctive
tarill".
Hr. IIorrs;iid that he really pitied his
friend Hurler because he had told li'.m
that li" was wrong in his conclusions on
tiiis great snioiniepiestioii sever..l years
ago, but thai he, Hal ter, either Wouldn't
s"C it, or didn't w ant to see it. Then he
niarshalle I an array of tacts completely
demolishing the tine spun theories of his
opponent and concluded by challenging
him to refute them. Mr. Horr's ri marks
were interlarded with many happy sal
lies at the position of his adversary,
which mile.! forth prolonged outbursts of
applause from the audience. Both speak
ers appeared to 'oe very much in earnest
even though each received perhaps ?l-i
for the evening's entertainment and for
several hours after the debate lrid liocti
brought to a close Mr. Halter rtood in tha
hotel hall and argued to an assemblage of
gentlemen that his iisilioii js the eorrei-t
ojie and that the people of the I'niled
States must yet realize the error they have
committ'-d.
Major tiann'M Us-ture Wtslnesdav even
ing, on "fire;-.; Naval Hatll'.-s of the Pe-K-llioii,"
was of absorbing interest, made
so by the fact that the speaker had partio
ipated in several of them. His descrip
tion of the engagement between the
"Monitor" and tiie " Merrimae" at
Hampton Koads was thrilling, ai was,
also, his description of the engagement
at New Orleans and Mobile Hay. The
lecturer spoke for over two hours and
held the attention of his audieiu-e until
after he had pronounced the List sentence.
The Schumann Concert Company
proved a disappointment o the large au
dience which crowded the opera House
Thurslay evening. The company cannot
lie c iinpared with :ny of the musical or
ganizations appearing Is-fore an institute
audience in former years without sulfej
iug by the comparison.
The entertainments taken as a whole,
were exceptionally goo.l and rt ili-ct gnat
credit upon the jiidgiiient of Sinierintt nd
ent Herkey, w ho, of course, had never
before heard the Sehumanu aggregation
make an attempt at vocalization.
The total receipts of the iiistit'Ke, in
cluding the county appropriation of
were stCJ.-). (i,e total cxjm.iixss were
tl!. 10, leaving a balance in the hands of
the County SuiHTtiileiidciit of s.vi.10.
The s-s.siin .f Ti-n-hers' Institute just
closed has again illustrated the w isdom
of the school directors of the county in
electing a capable and conscientious
County Superintendent.
Thesm-cess of the institute was in a
great measure owing to his individual ef
forts The following resolutions were adoptc-l,
by Institute ln-fore final adjournment :

of all its citizens and that to accomplish
this punxrse our legislature should p:csi
a compulsory school law with proper re.
strict ion.

i:np.rtan-e of right ideas of government
