Ou Butur dny Inst the institute of tlifl three townships in this valley was held at Lay ton. With the exception of threo, all the teachers wore preaentt bssido a goodly number of patrons loRtitute was called to order prompt ly on time by President Bainuel Hi7"!ton of Mnntngne. Thnsirgifg of "America" by the tenchers oixin ed the morning session. Devotional exercises by the Rev. J. 1). Ornll, and next came the singing of "Rock of Ages." Sunt. Decker gave an address entitled "The good of Teachers Meetings" and the many good points he made convinced his hearers that these meeting!! cootd be made productive of good results. Next Mr. Hazelton spoke on the topie, "Preparation of the laaoher in Recitation." In a masterly way be showed conclusively that every recitation should be carefully studied by the teacher, and bear the recita tion without text book In band. At the close of bis remarks adjourn ment was bad for dinner. Promptly at one o'clock the afternoon session opened by singing "The Old Oaken Bucket," Prof. A. O. Suiith of Deckertown leading the singing. Mr. Bmith now took the floor on his topto "The Recitation." His address was quite lotig, but it was solid meat all through, and held the attention of every one present from opening to close, and as a teacher I want to say that bis talk was perti nent and to the point, and if the teachers present will follow out his line of reasoning, success must surely follow. Discussion followed. Next came Miss Mary E. DeMass, also of Deckertown, who gave a very interesting talk on the "Teach ing Primary Numbers ' This was good and very instructive and our teachers would do well to follow out her line of thought. At the close of her talk Mrs. Ralph Decker render ed "The Christening of the Baby" in her inimitable style, and received a round of applause. The institnte closed at 3.30, and I am sure it oould not fail to bring good results, if the good things heard are carried out, The dance at Abratn Rutana on Wednesday night filled the house, and all report a good time and plenty of dancing. in the nominations for office over in Pike, I could not help but notice those of Porter township. The ticket is all either Clark or Smith, and some are on for two or three offices. I guess the population ia not very dense out there. The Oyster Supper at the residence of Floyd Major Thursday evening was not largely attended. There is too much, in the supper line, going on just now and the boys cannot stand the racket. Howard Van Gorden has rented the farm of Mrs. Ida. Garis situated in Montague. January was a record breaker for cold weather.

It was a highly Rtnusing Bight to witness Senator Simmons of North Carolina upholding the 'canal treaty and stating that ha should vote for it, and In the some breath' denouncing the President for having negotiated it. We have heard before of really adroit conjurers carrying a pail of water on either shoulder but this performance of Senator Simmons places him even beyond the class of the elder Hermann. Mr Simmons is a new man in the senate too, and some of the old time leaders are seriously blinking their heads. What will he not be able to accomplish with a few years adued of senatorial wisdom and experience? The democratic readers of that estimable sheet, the Washington Star, were thrown into political rap tures the other day to read the scare head, "Good Campaign Issue." But only for a brief, iridescent moment The second headline dispelled the illusion; it read ''One Needed by, the Democratic Leaders." - The Missouri politician are bold ing up to view the JZon.iC.
