The 121 am ul s-ioii of the S.uierset Couiily Teai hers' Institute convened in the Court House at o'cUn k Motiday afteru'sm. Every seal in the large court room was occupied when County Super intendent E. E. I'ritts rappeil for order nnd askel theassembly to unite in sing ir.g tbe first f tans of "All Hail the Pow- i er of Jsus" Ntm," w hih was fid lowed by Keriptural tending snd prayer by Rev. HiKiver, of the Lutheran Church. Conspicuous in the audience was the oldest teacher in point cf service In tbe county Miss Maggie Knepper, of Berltu who occuficd the same front row seat that she ha graced during many former institutes. The audiej?e was largely coir. posed of young nif n, although there was a liiieral representation f schad inarms, a.tired in r;ew fall wraps and "fetching" head gear, ard looking like anything but the austsreaud iuijialient creatures they are wont to Le pictured in the mind of the boy w ho plays hookey." The "chrysanthemum" style of wearing the macnline top covering, in vogue at the higher institutions, of learning throughout the country, has been culti vated to a considerable extent by the young men engsged in teaching in Som erset county, as was evideuced by tbe shocks of red, black and yellow hair to be seen throughout the court roia. As the wenther iadjcalious forbid arranging for a foot bail game during the sessions of institute, il is probable that tbe local barbe rs will have an opportunity to ex ercise their skill betweeu now and final adjournment. All iu ail tho teachers of Somerset county are as haudsome a body of young ladies and gentlemen aa can be found in Pennsylvania, and their presence in Som erset is a source of great pleasure to tho entire population of this town. R-f.ire-iiitrodui'iiiz Prof. C. M. Patker, of Iiiiigbamt-m, New York, woo will have charge of the music daring the week. Superintendent PritU announced that the program for the institute hud been prepared with great care, that th' instructors present are am.mg the best to be secured, and that it devolved upon each individual teacher to assist in car rying ut the program aud to be ben e fj tad thareby. Prof. Parker is a gentleman of oom manding preseuce, with a voice that peuetrates to the furthest recesses of the room, but his voice is so sweetly modu lated and under sui.sii perfect coutrol, that it is a delightful treat to bear him sing his own compositions, notwithstanding the fact that the one given at Monday afternoon session is familiar to every sjhixd boy and girl in tho couni. The Professor's audience appeared to be j mightily pleased with him on first ac quaintance..and it is more than probable that he w ill be a great favorite w ith it be fore the close of the week. When State Superintend"!! SchsetTer wns seen elbowing his way to m-: Break er's staud he wjis greeti'd by a tumult of applause, showing the warm feeling en tertaiued f r bi n by the teachers of the couuty. Tho State Superintendent is an 'imperialist' Iu opening his address he said: "Since last I had tue privilege of looking into the faces of a Somerset County Teacher' Institute we have pass ed through a successful war, and I want to s iy this afternoon that in the fu ore we will have to t-a-h geography entirely dif ferent from heretofore." Conliuuing he sai l : "It used t.vbe that when the Fourth of July c!u3 around thesound of cannon fired in reeouition of and jubilatioa over our annual anniversary died out on the shores of Alaska, but undar the new or der of affairs tbe Fourth of July will be saluted at sunrise in the Philippine isl ands aud the report of booming cannon will be carried over until the next day, when it w ill reach Cuba, Porto Rioo and the United States." He referred to the decay of the Latin nations, and said that the victory of America over Spain was simply history repeating it-self, and hint ed that the day is not far distant when the Anglo-Saxon and Teutonic races will dominate the globe. He gave, among other reasous why he believes this will ultimately prove true, the fact t"at the Latin nations have taxed their subjects to the farthest limit, while the more highly civiliz d nations have taxed theirsubjects only for the purpose of carrying on eco nomical forms of government and edu cating the masses. The D Kttor paid a tribute to Pennsylvania's Legislators for appropriating nearly one-half of the total revenue of the State for public school purposes, aud urged the teachers to inculcate lessons of patriotism into their pupils and to teach them that it is their highest duty to pay their just share of taxation for tbe maintenance of their ei jvfernment and the schools. "There are only two political parlies," he declared, "the 'ins' and th9 'outs.' The 'ins pro fess to believe that unless they are con tinued in charge of the affairs of govern ment it will go to run, while the 'ouU' insist that unless they are placed in con trol the country will g i to ruin. On the Fourth of July the 'ins' and the 'outs' proclaim from the same slump that we have the best and greatest Government on earth. So the truth mast be some where between. I belong to the 'ins' at present. So long as the purity of our ju diciary and tbe billot are un assailed our form of government is safe against all foes, and it is therefore of the most urgent necessity that teachers should teach the boys who will steer the Ship of State through the twentieth century that their highe.t privilege is to cast tl eir oal lots aud votj their convictions." EVEMNO EKTKRTAISMENT. The evening entertaiument was o en ed w ith a duet by Missts Grace Mutsel in in and Annie Walker. The singing of these young ladies proved a gralifyit g surprise to many in the audience who realized for tbe first time that Somerset has native musical talent that does not suffer w hen compared with the high-pi ic ed vocalisU brought here at former insti tutes. Tbe lecturer, Jehu DeWitt Miller, who was billed to speak on 'The Uses ef Ug liuess," asked Suporiutendont PritU' permission to substitute his lecture ou "Uncle Sam Suffljient Unto Himself." It was uufortunate that Mr. Miller did not have the pleasure of hearing Djctor Schaeifer'a address in tbe afternoon, siuce he simply ' thrashad over old straw." In fict, it appeared to many in the au dience that either the speakar or the State Superintendent was guilty of plagiarism, as the th mghu expressed by both were identical aud in a number of instances were clothed In practically the same words, while both used the same illuslrati -ns. Doctor Scbaeffdr did not refer to the mooted alliance between Great Britain and the Unit's! States, while Mr. Miller gave a number of ex cellent reasons why Uuete Sara should steer clear of the British lion. w It so hap pened, however, that a majority of the audience bad not beard Doctor Schaetler'a address, and thoy were therefore greatly pleased with Mr. Miller's lecture, which was a very able discussion of an absorb ing public question. . Two hundred and thirteen out of a toul of two buodred aud twenty teachers em ployed iu ths county answered roll call Tuesday morning. Superintendent I'ritts believes that tbe full uu tuber wili be pres ent to day. The crowd in at'endance, w hde perbai not as large aa last year, is entirely too big to lie entertained iu a room the aizs of the court room. An hour before the lima set for meeting yesterday afternoon every seat and every available inch of standing room was oeenpieil, w bile hundreds were unable to gtin aduibwion to the room. It is probable that the attendance to day will be the largest in the history ef Som erset County Teachers' Institutes. t HOW WATCH HIM SSAJH IT. AmiblTman-!ct Kooatx Aacoaoeei Hn InteBlioa cf Smafhiag th Jlacbina. From Tuesday's Philadelphia Press we take the following: In.iii-etioi.s are not lacking Ihst there will shortly be a concerted movement snioi p the opponents of Senator Quay looking to his defeat for re election. The most recent evidence fif this character was furnished by the pre-oneo iu the city yesterday of General Kuoutz, the veteran Seimersel county statesman, who was elected a member cf tbe Legislature at the last election aud who has been prominently mentioned as (he man like ly to be selected by the anti Qosyiics as their candidate forr-'peaker of the House. There baa been no f.rmal agreement among the anti-machine members of the Legislature on General Koontz as their leader, and the questlun is not likely to be decided far a few days, but the veter an Republican is looked upon with much favor for the place. General Knontr, w hilo here yesterday. conferred with a number of friends. When seen by a reHrter, be said : "I have not discussed the question of going into a caucus, and have leen mi-q toted on that point. I have been fighting the machine for twenty-five years. I entered the present contest not for the satisfaction of personal ambition, but at the instance of the friends of good government. "I am going to stand by my friends. Tbe people I represent expect me to do a good share of the work necessary to smash tbe machine, and I am not going to be deterred in my duty by any ma chine tricks." It is Co mm odors licking Sow. Among other appoii. Intents made by the President last week we notice the ap pointment t.f Captain Heury F. Picking toliei Commodore, the highest rank, we believe, ever attained by a native ot this couuty, in either the naval or military service of the United States. Commodore Pickiugisa son of the lale William II. Picking, of this place. He was appoint ed to the Naval Academy in 1'J by the la e Colonel John R. E-lie, then a mem ber of Congress from the Somerset dis trict. He was graduated three yesrs later in order that the government might avail iuelf of the services of the cadets io the war of the rebellion. Among hia class-mates were Rear-Admiral Sampson and Cnptaiu "Jack" Phillip, w hile Rear Admiral Dewey was a member of the idass ahead. Tho friendship formed at the Academy between the four officers named has continued until this day. Com modore Picking is in command of the rewiviug ship Wa'iash, at Boston, but w il! likely be transferred shortly to some other posiliuu. Xrt. Franou M Kimmell Dead. Word was ree"eived here last week of the death of Mrs. Phoele Jane Kimmell, who was well-known to many of our older readers, a number of whom had the pleasure of renew lug their actpiaiDt ance with her last summer, when she visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Kooser. She was a sister of Mrs. Harriet Ogle, of this place, and of Hess Forw ard, Es.j., cf Cincinnati. The following noti -e of her death is taken from the Chambers burg Valley Spirit: Mrs. Phoe be Jane Kimmell, widow of tho l.ate Judge Francis M. Kimmell, died' at her home on E.ist Market street at l!:3u o'clock, a. in., on Wednesday, tho :i:d day of November, 1s;h, in her 7'!th yar. The following children survive her: Dr. Jane K. Garver, Harrisburg ; Mrs. James Neill, Wheeling, West V.; Mrs. H. I. Plough and Mrs. Linn Hi.r baugh, this place. A daughter, Rebee-kah, w ii'e of Samuel J. Sullivan, of Chicago, died in IS!), and a sou in infancy mai.y years ago. Mrs. Kimmell was bom in Somerset, Pa, March-il, 123 She was a daughter of Hon. Chauncey Forward, one ef sev eral taletited brothers who attained dis tinetion as lawyers aud statesmen in the early history of Pennsylvania. Her early life was passed in Somerset where in lSsl she was married to Francis M. Kimmell, then a young lawyer, s-niq afterwards elected president judge of the P;th judicial district of Pennsylvania. In -her youth Mrs. Kimmell bee nne a memler of the Disedple Church at Somerset. Later, dur-tig her residence of almost forty years in Chambersbnrg, she was a com municant of Trinty Episcopal Church and t.Kik a deep interest in the welfare and charitable work of the parish. Her charity to tbe poor was unassuming but constant and was doubly exercised be cause ef her personal interest in all those to whom her help wss extended. Her life was a q i iet one and she lived it in unselfish and unremitting labor for those she loved. To all who came into her home she was a delightful compan ion and with the life of young people she was iu perfect sympathy. Always fond of reading, she possessed a mind well stored with what is best in literature and to all who knew her she revealed a charming personality. She was ever pa tient iu sickness, always calm and coura geous in time of trouble. From a singu larly pure and righteous life, crowded with good deeds to others, she has enter ed into rest.

It was de cidedly the best entertainment through out, by exclusively liome talent, ever given in this town. Each number on the long program was a performance of artis tic merit, such as is rarely beard in towrs the size of Somerset. A stranger iu the large audience, who enjoys a reputation in the city nl Harris burg, where he resides, for cutldVe and a critical knowledge ef b th voejtl and in strumental m ni t, do t! are-1 th it it was the finest amateur entertainment be had ever allanded, regardless of the fact that th opportunities of the performers have necessarily been of a decidedly lim ited character. In his opinion the music played by tbe Concert Orchestra was of a superior quality and splendidly rendered. Perhaps the most notable performance, at all eveuts tha oue that secured tbe greatest amount of applause, was the du et, "My Gal's a Higa Born Lady," by the Mioses Hatlieaud Ethel Holderbauip, young daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Jam B. Holderbaum. In addition to their ex cellent imitation of the plantation negro, they weregtwne! in a fashion that re flected great credit upon their dress mak er, which we suspect in this case was their mother. O.hers whj took pirt in the e.atsrtain meot were Mrs. M Biesecker, Mrs. J. C. Lowry, Mrs. G j-irga J. Piatt, Misses Bertha Shaffer, Maud and Pearl Gustin, Ruth Ferner. Daisy Vogal, Floy Knep per, Mary R berts, Helen Fisher, and Me-srs James Hartzeli, C. F. Uhl, Jr., C. W. Walker and W. IL Ruppel. The accompanisU were Misses Elsie Snyder, Lulu Shafler aud Stella Burgess. Something for the Sew Tear.
