At the Presbyterian an immense crowd assembled in the church room on Christmas evening. The pro gramme was chiefly filled by the children, and tableaux were the foature. Perhaps tbe most enjoyable part was an instru mental trio by Dr. J. T. Balph and his two daughters. At the Methodist Church all was candy, good feeling, music, prayer, and recitation. It was enjoyed by all uf the hundreds present. Tbe English and German Lutherans bad elaborate and extensive programs aud their decorations were beautiful. At the U. P church the usual treat was provided. The Catholic churches paid, as usual, chief attention to the musin, which was very fine. —lt may not be generally known that silver has lately been found in Scrubgrass twp., Yenango county, not in large quantities, but iu very convenient shape for gathering it. It may be woll,however, in order to save a rush of men to the scene of this find, to state that the silver is coun terfeit. It was found under the leaves by some young men who were setting their traps in an out of the way place, about a halt mile west of the stone Presbyterian Church, and near what is called tbe "In dian Rock." About s2l. in halves and quarters was found, and it is supposed to have belonged to men who formerly lived in tbe neigh borhood, one of wboui was sent to tho penitentiary for dealing in such stuff, and another accepted Greely's ad vice, "Go west, youug man, go west." C. —A company of capitalists are at present boring an immense tunnel from a point along the Niagara river below the Falls, through the solid rock nnder the town, a distance of a mile or two, to a point under their property along the river above the Falls, and at that point they will sink an immense shaft and pnt turbine wheels into it which are to be moved by water from a canal leading from the river above. By so doing they expect to gain a force equal to that of 120,000 horses; with which they will operate an electric plant capable of lighting all the cities and towns of the United States, and also a compressed air plant capable of running all tbe engines within a distance of a hundred miles. It is the rcatest and most expensive enter prise at present underway on this conti nent, and ifit is successful will revolution ize the light aud motive power business of the country. —Few public events have boen more successful and gratifying to its promoters than the opening of the Opera House, last Wednesday night, by the Elks. The play, "A Knotty Affair" was all that could be desired, and the large number present ex pressed tbe greatest satisfaction at the ap pointments and fittings of the house. The arrangements were perfect, tbe ushering being done by a herd of handsome "Elks," and their work was done with the care of veterans. The Orchestra was, under the leadership ol Prof. Lamb, and the music WHS a prominent and most enjoyable feature of the affair, and will prove a great attraction to the Opera House. There was some great "hustling" done by the contractors in getting the House in order for the Wednesday night opening. Mon day showed a huge uncarpeted room with everything in disorder, but by day aud night work, aud a united and determined affort the Scbenck Brothers,and the others engaged, succeeded in having things in apple pio order by Wednesday eveuing. —The police ol Pittsburg and Allegheny were kept busy on Christmas day on ac count of the number ol quarrels, and these were mostly due to drunkenness. Half a hundred men were locked up for assaults some of whom tbe police expected to hold for murder. There was, also, one suicide. A German girl living at H. B. Boyd's house on Bcuua Vista St., Allegheny,com mitted suicide by banging herself in the laundry, after failing to do so by slashing her wrists. Her case seems to have been one of religious fanaticism, as she was iu the best of . spirits the previous evening, visited her friends and made them presents, but the revival meeting-i she had been at tending had affected her mind. Among the dead girl's effects was found the lollowing letter of farewell written in German: "Tomy Dear Parents, Uncle and Aunt Gabos and my friends: You must forgive me for making such a dreary Christmas time for you. lam determined to make away with myself. I have not yet paid the messenger who will have this letter. You will please pay him. Mary will tell you about my effects. Do with tbem what you will. Forgive me, my dears, if I have wronged yon in the past and ds not accuse any one on account ot that which I am about to do. It is all my own fault. I have thrown away the mercy of God in despair, for I have decided upon this awful step. I can not live any longer. That is tbe judgment of the Bible on such things, and so I look destruction in the faco. Rather than fall a burden on the world, I shall place my solfbefore the Judge of judges in the Eternal courts. My eutire life has been a dreary desert, nothing more. Do not let my good, dear parents grieve over this. Death comes once, at any rate, Therefore, I bid you all farewell. I kiss you all a thousand times. Pardon me, lor I cannot do otherwise. Farewell. 1 The Institute. Thirty-seventh Teaohert InitijaM« > of Butler Co. was called to order by Supd*t MoCollough, and opened Witt prayer Ly R«v, Small, Monday morning. A Finance Committee was appointed, and tho balanco of the morning was occu pied in making the enrollment of the present who numbered 500 ftnd were taxed one and a halfdollars each, which added to the fund for meeting ex peaiat. - That afternoon the room was crowded with teachers and spectators. Judge Hazen gave the teachers a hearty wel come, and then referred to the jury system of to-day which he considers a relict or the past ages, and thinks the teacher* should help to remedy by instructing their scholars regarding it. He said that the reading of the newspaper accounts of a crime by men called as a jurors was taken advantage of by the attorneys of defend ants and by the jurors themselves to dis qualify them from serving on important cases, which left only the illiterate element for such cases; such was the practice and the law in all the states. He thinks no employment so important as that of the teacher, and that the teach ers should inculcate in the minds of their pupil* the pripolples of tight and wrong. He referred to this readlnf of religions books In tho schools of different localities, and said that in law tho Common School System was non-sectarian and non partisan, but that the principles of morality should not be offensive iu any school. He oautioned the teachers that the impressions made on the mind* 4f the young were as lasting as life, thinks all boys and girls should be compelled to go to school, said that intellectual giant* who lacked morality wore not good citizens; wished tho teachers a pleasant sojonrn in Butler, and bid them good day. Prof. F. E. Enoch, of Petrolia, a son of Herman Enoch, of Saxonburg, made the response. He complimented the speaker who had preceded him, said our political and social development was tho result of diverse forces and spontaneous move ments. that in the North education had been a fundamental principle from the first, but our methods have not kept pace with its development. Teachers Institutes originated in New York State, had spread all over the country and were doing a great work, ho thanked the people of Butler lor their warm reception and com plemented the town in its improvements, spoke of the advance in the arts and sciences and said that 200,000 patents were granted last year, and that American machinery was encountered all over the world; said the teacher's duties isolated him from other teachers, but that concert of action would improve them inorallj and intellectually; he referred to Dr. Luc keys criticisms on the old school books and said they had set the teachers thinking, that the old oral spelling was going out, and that language reform was marching to victory; thinks a child's faculties should be developed harmoniously; said that one hundred and ninety-three million dollars are spent annually in this country on the Public Schools as compared with ono hundred and forty-five millions in all Europe, and that this expenditure paid us in making good citizens, that education here was free to all, that the curse of gold might destroy the virtue of legislatures, but when it destroyed our public schools our liberties would be gone forever, thai there are 361,000 teachers in the United States; that teachers should educate themselves by reading, and that now oc casions taught new'duties. A recess was then taken during which the enrollment was completed,and the Snp't si ated to the teachers that a report of their attendance would be furnished to each Board of Directors in the county; after which the regular exercises as set torth in the program were taken up* During the session of Tresday Mr. E. E McCall, spoke against corporal punishment in schools and also against adopting a code of rules. His arguments were good. Mr. J. W. Humphrey spoke of the teach ers opportunities for self imprvement. Which he thinks are many. His address was well prepared, and his delivery excel lent. Maggie Crawford,iu a pleasing essay, ad vocated an abundance of good literature in the Public Schools. The lecture,that evening,by Dr. John B. DeMotte, was one of the best ever deliv ered in Butler. He gave his audience an idea of the effort now being made to de velop electrical force, which was interest ing; and followed that by some exception ally pointed remarks on morality. His closing sentence "Have a reverence for yourself, will probably be remembered by all present. On Wednesday morning Mr. Frank Knoch took tbe place of T. H. Eiinesatthe informal ipeeting. and introduced the sub ject of language which was discussed by Prof. Mackey, Lensner and others. Howard Painter advocated the teaching of the causes and effects of historical events rather than the dry facts, aud made a very good argument. G- W. Kennedy illustrated the rules ot primary arithmetic, and G. I Wilson spoke of the opportunities the teacher has of do ing good iu connection with his teaching. The Professional instructors this year are good, the teachers speaking especially of Dr. White and Miss Grit?wold, and all tbe teachers who have taken part have done well. The whistling match that evening by tbe Eellogg Co., was held in the new Opera House. Clarence Caldwell presided at the in formal meeting of Thursday morning, and the subjects discussed all appertained to practical teaching. The directors meeting is being held this (Thursday) afternoon, and we will make a note of it in next paper. The Institute has been a very successful one. —The People's Stdte at No. 323,5.

A dispatch from Pittsburg, dated Mon day, says: In distributing blank petition? for liquor licenses tbe Clork of the Court discovered that the last State Legislature had amend ed the wrong law, thereby endangering the chances for every applicant for license. By a technical blunder no end of confus ion 5s threatened to license applicants and License Judges throughout the State. On June 19, 1891, the Legislature pass ed an act intending to amend the Brooks law, to allow saloon keepers to hare bondsmen from any part of the county in stead of ward or township. The amendment was to the Act approved May 24. 1887, whereas the Brooks law was approved May 13, 1887. The Act amend ed was one providing for wholesale liquor licenses and, as a result, the Judges can refuse all license applications because they do not coaform to the law. XOTKB. The case of Chas.
