Mr. Erdman presented- a remonstrance agalmit the name and moved that the pliant be laid under the table. Mr. Dillinger moved that first both the petition and the remonetrance be received. Carried. Mr. 1:1111Inger hoped that the motion to lay the petition on the table would not prevail because he Intended to move that the schools be closed 'taring the emalon of the Institute and that the teachers attend there. Mr. Gries Inquired fis to how many of the teach ers who had signed the petition had attended last , Mr. Buehrle explained. Mr. McLean-- ,, There Is great objection to our closing the schools ; we close for every holiday, and to close for two weeks right straight ahead in u little too much, "It appears to me, for us to do. We have a certain class of boys who can attend only during the Fall session and they want to at tend regularly during that time and during it to obtain all the schooling they can. Tho schools ought not to be closed." Mr. Dillinger—" It strikes me that In not re quiring the teachers to attend this Institute weare defeating the execution of one of the provisions of the common school law. In fact we are almost required to compel them to attend there." Mr. Hull defined his position. Mr. Buchrle—.. Inasmuch as my name has been mentioned in this matter I would like to explain to the Board how I stand. Now we have been working three years, and trying to work together the county and city. You cannot expect any har mony to this institute this year. (Examining signatures to the petition). Where are the names of on: grammar school teachers? Arc they en this paper? "Our leading female grammar school teacher has determined not to go there this year. (Mention made of the names of teachers who hail not signed the petition.) The closing day of the session of the last Institute It was publicly chueg cd that the city teachers were the noisiest present. That charge Wile made by the President ot the In stitute and the County Superintendent. It was perfectly proper for the President to call those teachers to order but not for him to single them out. (Explanation was made of the way In which city teachers were excluded from the most Impor tant committee—On Certificates.) Why do these teachers rote not to go I It Is Is not for Idleness but for work that they vote ! Incidentally it was remarked that the number of teachers in this city was about fifty-two. Mr. dries—" There are two elder to this ques tion In consequence of a quarrel between the city and county ti achers as I understand It."

The programme consisted In a large measure of solos upon the violin, flute, clari• onette and vlolincello and richly interspersed with songs by Mrs. Weston. Their programme as a quintette and quartette has all the preci sion of execution,uniformlty of movements and expression of sentiment so wonderful and charming in the Thomas Orchestra. As soon as the musicians t.,tach their instruments a harmony of sounds floats through the home and fills every recess, as though the product tion of one mind and hand, with expression and shading from the grand and glori• ous exultation of a full orchestra to the soft and tender strains that draw the enraptured listener eagerly forward to catch the faintest sound. Theflute solo by Edward Heindl, was a charmingly wonderful performance. He held the house spellbound by the after melody emanating from his flute which was only broken by the most unbounded applause corn. lug from every part on hie conclusion, and would not be quieted until he again appeared. At one time his tension of a very high trill so thrilled the audience that a rippling and rapid descent only brought them again under control. The violin, violinullo and clarinette solos were equally exquisite and enthusiasti cally encored ; stamping each performer as complete master of his Instrument. The audi ence enthusiastically urged a second encore of the violin solo but the performer declined. Mrs. Weston has a clear, sweet and finely cultivated voice of large scope under complete control and admirably used. A feature of her singing was the accompaniment of her voice by the flute In a few bars of an English ballad " Who's at my window ?" which called forth a storm of applause that would not he sated until she again appeared. Altogether the concert Wail an• entertainment of such rare and genuine sweetness, culture and refinement that any community can be proud of having the honor and pleasure to enjoy It.
