Peter Meyers will be placed on trial cext week iu thecrimiual court to answer an indictment charging him with the willful murder of Michael Carney and John Lenhart, o'n the afternoon of Tues day, Soptemlier 2fM last, both of whom were residents of the village of Garrett. Readersof this papr are familiar with tbe events leading up to the brutal double tragedy, when two inoffensive men w ere shot down w ithout a word of warning by blood -thirsty euurdrer, and of the ex citing scenes enacted before his capture. Ever since he has been confined injiil Meyers has been quiet and well-behaved. and is apparently penitent of his awful crime. He has never expressed a hope that he might escape death on the gal lows, but on the other band has leen busily preparing himself for the other world. A few lay. since when a yisitor to the jail aoaght to encourage him by saying that he ssn would be st free Meyers qlietly olwerve-J : "I cJn'i e how th.t i; is possible ; yon know I kill ed two men."

It is not known what defense they will make, but it is more than likely they w ill endeavor to secure an acquittal on the ground that Meyera was insane at the time tha double urirder was com mitted. The introduction of hot water h;-at at the i.ourt house two winters ago was a public improvement that won commend ation not alone from tbe official occut ants of that building, but from all having bus in a- to transact at the court house. In addition to rendering the building more comfortable during tbe winter months il reduced the chances of going up in flames by reawn of tbe many stoves. utilized in the various offices and the rooms devoted to the use of tbe court, thst formerly acted as a constant menace. Bat the uniform heat ganeratcd by the hot water boiler baa caused a wonderful shrinkage among the timber of the ven erable temple of justiea, in aome places drawing the fl'Xrs at least an inch from the walls, and causing the flooring to warp and twist Notwithstanding the alarm created last week, w hen the court room wa overcrowded by institute speota'o-s, there is not a particle of dinger of the seooud floor giving way, as H ia support ed by brick partitions at intervals of every few yards. Some people have seii ed upon the alarm occasioned among ecu nty official last week, when tbe cil inga'xve them cracked, as a Biillieieut reason why the county should erect a new court bouse at an early day. The present oourt bouse does not conform with modern idea of what a public building thoo Id be, bst we are mistaken in our judgment if a large majority of the taxpsyei of the county 4o uot think it good enough to occupy during the coin ing ten years.

TEACHERS IXSTITUTE. Forty-Second Anaeal Xeting of Publia Instructors. T3SA2ATEO IHIEaSSI MASIFE3I3 Tha Forty - Second annual session of tbe Somerset County Teachers' Institute conclad i its labors at eleven o'clock Fri day moruiug, when teachers, diroctors, and friends of edumtion who had epent a p easant aud profitable week in tbecoun- ty sent returned to their homes. The In stitute throughout was one of the best ever held In tbe comity, aud wbilethe at tendance oa the part of the general pub lic was perhaps uot as large aa on several former occasions, the oourt room in which tfc e sessions were held proved entirely In adequate to accommodate all who sought admission. Iu fact the seats and aisles were occupied by tager spectators so long in advance of tbe convtuing of the seo si jd on Wednesday and Thursday that a number of teachers were unable to gain 8ces to the room, and. as a consequence, more or less complaint was heard among Item rt fleeting on the greed of the gen eial public who, it seems, entertained Ibe idea that the Institute was called for their ei lift '-at on as well as lor the instruction of the young men and women engaged in teaching. It is a matter of sincere regret that Somerset has not hall of suf ficient seating capacity to accommodate all who drire to be present at meetings designed for the public welfare, but last 1 w een, fur clshed another striking illustra tion that Somerset Is deficient In this res pect, and it will likely devolve upon tbe County Superintendent in the future to regulate admission to Teachers lustitute by card. The Commonwealth has provided for the assembly of teachers of tbe various counties in annual Institute, and it is al most compulsory that they attend; aud such being the case, it would seem only proper that the Institute be devoted ex clusively to their benefit and instruction. Ou the other hand it may well be argued that the benefit to lie derived from attend ing the Institute is of such recognized importance, the character cf tbe instruc tion is of such inestimable value to all interested In educational work, and the opportunity of listening to instructors of national reputation and worth is snob a r.ire one that the general public ia enti tled to some consideration.. Superintendent Pritts iscoufronted with the above cold facts, and we believe no one appreciates thedilncnlty of providing a week's profitable entertainment for the teachers more than does he; bi:t those who have criticised him would do well to remeuiler that he has been guided by a d'.ire to provide a program designed to help and aid teachers in their school w ork, and is n t responsible for the fact that a large element of the general public avail themselves of the opportunity to participate in the feast prepared for the teachers. The startling evidence, manifested by ominous reports of cracking timbers and settling walls, that the floor of the court room was struggling under its burden of human weight, Wednesday and Thurs day, did not have a deterring elfect on Ihe pushing people w ho ellxiwd their way to the doors of the overcrowded ro:n, nor did it cause the occupants of the room to fear that they were in danger of being precipitated into the cellar of the build ing, although it did create a panic among the oeeuiu of the county offices below. who ran from the building believing that it was alout to topple down on thei; heads. The consternation of the officials is not to be wondered at when the crscks and openings in the ceiliugs of their offices are examined. The Institute instructors, notably Doc tor SchielTer, Dct r Waller and Doctor Miller, were among the ablest ever pre sented to the teachers of this county. Dx;tor Sbaeffcr delivered only one ad dress, referred to in last week's IIkrald. D jetor Waller Rpoke at each sessioii, and every one of his talks was chock-fuil of practical and valuable information. In his address on memorizing tbe Doctor touched popular chord when he advised teachers to cultivate this faculty in their pupils, no matter whether or not they comprehended the object to be attained He declared that the child whose mind had been trained to repeat the multipli cation table before it coul 1 count correctly had already learned a valaable lesson, and one that would siand tt in good stead throughout lifa He pronounced as fail ure the method introduced in many schools eight or ten years ago, whose ob ject'was to discountenance the practice of memorizing. Doctor Waller is a forceful speaker, with a pleasant delivery and a genial presence. He was very popular with his audience. Doctor Miller's addresses were of a his torical t-hsmcter, and were given ior the purposed encouraging teachers to depart from the beaten paihs of the ordinary text books, and to follow along the lines of actual authenticited facts, especially ia connection with the commercial ex pansion of the United States. His re marks in reference to the purchase of Alaska by the Ui ited States, particularly those portions relating to that period of the Civil Vir when Russia manifested her friendliness toward the North, and to the parts played by our representatives at the courts or St- Pefsrelnirg and Paris during thoss tumultuous times, were in tensely interesting. The same can be said of bis talks on 'The Great Canals of the World, and "Blennerhasset aud His Island Home." Prof. J. D. Meese, of 'he California Stute Normal, was accorded -arin welcome by the Iustitute, a msj rity or ibo mem bers of which feel a special interest in him for tbe reason that be is a native of Somerset county and was formerly a tearhar ia the local schools. His several talks on "English in Oar Common Schools'' were excellent in both matter and form. The habituated teacher could not resist the teuiptition to compare Pro fessor Meese's public ellorts of eight or niue years ago, when ho struggled against stage fright to give utteraucs to the thoughts that surged through bis brain. with ' lie po1ihed and fluent addresses he is capable of delivering to djy. Thetruth is that l rof. Meese has made more rapid strides in his profession, particularly in institute work, than any. instructor we can now recall engaged in a similar avo- cition. Prof. E. D. Steward, of Waynea'ourg, is a plent speaker and a geuial gentle m n, w ith a penchant to interject person al experiences into his Institute work His Institute addresses would prove more entertaining and instructive were tbey di voted to matters pertaining to the school room. City Superintendent J. M. Berkey of the Johnstown public schools, was an in terested spectator Thursday, and deliver ed one of his usual happy addresses at the afternoon session. The evening entertain in ents were all of high order aud gave splendid satisfac tion. Perhaps the best lecture of the course was given by Dr. William Haw- ley Smith, on "We, tbe People," while the "Apostle of Sunshine, Dr. A. A Willits, provoked the greatest amountof laughter and aroused his audience to the highest point of enthusiasm. The Sex tette, composed of six singing Smiths, left a most pleasing impression upon all who heard them Wednesday night. Their vocalization was a revelation of what can be accomplished in tbe way of sreat- ing harmony with that unrivaled Instru mentthe human voice. An innovation In the work of the In stitute was devoting every period to for eign instructors, whereas heretofore, tbe first hour of each session was given up entirely to discussions, reading papers on school work, etc, to teachers employed in the county. From every point of view the Forty Second Annual Teachers' Institute waa one of the most successful ever held in the county, and reflects great credit upon County Superintendent Pritts.

The Philadelphia Ledger says: A thor ough understanding is said to have been arrived at by the Djiii'wratic and anti- Quay leaders as to the preliminary pro gram to be followed in th Legislature by their followers. Ever since the day after election conferences have been held on the subji, of wresting the con.rol of the Legislature out of the hi-i.ls of Senator uay and defeating him for re-electiou. At first it was said that the Democratic members-elect could not be depended up on to art as a unit, because of the suspi cion that some of them were not averse to the re-election of Senator Qnay, aud would do all they could to prevent a fu- aion cf b's opponents. Yesterday, how ever, it was stated that Democratic lead ers of both factions would answer for their friends in the Legislature to unite with tbe anti-Q layites for the organization of the House, and if their etTorts in this res pect were successful they would turn tbeir attention to the defeat of Sena or Q'lay. The plan for organizing the House con sists of selectiog as Speaker an anti-Quay Republican, who shall be selected by the Ddmocrats, the latter to participate iu the distribution of the clerkships and em ployes.

The Yoitth's Companion, 211 Columbus Avenue, Boston Mass. Another Bchool Scandal. The developments before Judge Her ring in Carbon couuty afford the people of the state another opportunity to see bow the slate appropriations for public schools are diverted from tbeir original o-ject. Four members of tke Banks township board of directors have beeu ousted from office for accepting pay for attendance at the couuty institute when, it appears, the law does not con template tbeir attendance at such assemblages and assuredly does not grant tbeui the right to vote pay to themselves for that attendance. A fifth member was only lined and sentenced to pay the costs of the suit, his term having expired. The last year has been specially prolific in the matter of school board scandals in Pennsylvania, and tbe guilt of tbe Car bon county officials presumably having been established, the aeutenca of the oourt might justly have been more severe. It is somewhat of a satisfaction, however, to know that they did not altogether es cape, as su'-b an ending of the case would only have encouraged other directors to put tbe public moneys to illegal use Philadelphia Inquirer.

This week's eoitii n of the Etensbuig Freeman says the Council of that bi ugh has put its loot iu il by telling a contract for the construction of a sewer, now in prigresa and aluii-st completed, w itbout complying ith the requirements of Ihe law for such ca.es. The Freemau tlairns that the Council priK-cedeJ to give oat the contract to a Mr. O'Rourke, of Alloona, by a mere resolution, w ithout the passage of an or dinance, and without taking other steps rtquired by Act of Assembly, aud that consequently the borough run not be held responsible for the payment of the Con tractor. Some money has been advanced to him out of the treasury and our co temporary wonders whether this could not be recovertd, siuee it was illegally paid out, and tbe Councilmen made In dividually to pay the bill, since tbey entered upon tbe contract more as indi viduals than as representatives of the people. It is stated that after tbe contract had ten proceeded with for some time tbe Council met and passed tbe ordinance w hich tbey should have enacted before the work was begun, but tbe Freeman thinks an ex post -facto act will not cover the case under the circu instances.

The astonishing disclosure is made by the olllcial Red B.sjlc of the Spanish gov ernment, which contains the documents and letters that passed between tbe United States and Spain just before tbe outbreak of tbe war, that the Spanish secretary of stale, on February H of this year, sent a note to tbe powers, stating that tbe ostentatious concentration of tbe American naval forces in Cuban waters, and tbe persist nee with which the Maine aud tha Montgomery continued to remain in such close proximity to Cuba, was causing excitement, and the Spanish sec retary expressed the fear that "by some accident a conflict might be precipitated." Just oue week later the explosion of tbe Maine occurred, and the 'accident' which the Spanish secretary of State alluded to brought about a state of war. The statement of the Spanish secretary. In reference to the possibility of an ai-cident precipitating a conflict, may have been simply a coincidence, but it is certainly remarkable that the explsion on the Maine occurred so soon after it was made. The mystery of the Maine has never been fully investigated. Probably the real truth will be disclosed in due time. I-cslie's Weekly. Important Datei. " From Die I'liiladrlphU Press. Monday, November 2s, has become another determinative date in the history of the war. It marks a victory of diplo macy that is likely to become a central fact in the history of the closing years of the nineteenth century. Iu the present war it ranks w ith the other famous dates which were aii more or 1j-w fraught w ith tremendous significance, February li leading off with the destrucliou of the Maine. Then, with war on foot, April 22, Dewey's victory ou May l, Cervera's ar rival at Santiago on May It), the destruc tion of his fleet on July 3, the fall of San tiago ou July 17, and the proclamation of the protocol on August 12, ihe dates that will ever inspire the American, begin to pile up Iheir wonderful record of achieve ments ou land aud sea, and iu the ante room of diplomacy. Just nine months have passed, not a year, aud yet the inak ingof history has beeu so rapid that those w ho have not kept up w ith the movement naturally are bewildered, and for want of something better to do are crying out that it is all a mistake. They would forget the dates and clean off the slate, as if Feb ruary 13 Novemtieris did not exist. But that is the w hole story. They do. Hence the joy of Americans and tha outcries of the expatriated." Ea tings and Stone. Governor Hastings is gottiag ready to band over tbe reins of the state govern ment to Colonel Stoue on January 17. He baa advertised his horses for sale aud is having his private papers and effects packed to be shipped to Bellefonte. He will be busy until the eveof Inauguration, cleaning up the unfinished btisi'iess iu bis otfice in order that Colonel Stone may start in with a clean calendar. The gov ernor is devoting much of bis spare lime to the preparation of his valedictory mes sage to the uext legislature. Governor-elect Stone and his family will remain in Washington until after the holidays, wbeu they will go to Harrisourg and take up their residencd at a hotel or private house until sfter the inauguration. They will then take up their rei iencrj f r four years in th executive mansiou. I ui t Colonel Stone on Peu&sy lvania avenue the other day," says a correspon dent of the Norta American, "ila was looking in the best condition, as they say in sporting parlance, and said he never folt better in his li'e. Un!e-s he changes his mind. Governor Stone will not an nounce his Cabinet until after he is innug'- ii rated. He says ho has plenty of good timber to select from, and it is his intn tion to ta.e tbe best, men ia the party as his advisers. Like all larg'j bodies. Governor Sune moves slowly aud cau tiously, in all matters, and if be dies not secure an able Cabinet it w ill not be bis fault." t SUGGESTIONS.
