The FRosTBURG TEACHERS INsTI-
TUTE convened in Public School
Building, No. l, Saturday, October
Is, at two clock p. m, with president
]. W. S. Cochrane in the chair.
Miss Ella Paul opened the exercises
by singing a solo, when the flowing
tide comes in," after which Miss
Marian jackson read selection en-
titled lode to the Passions
Miss Adeline Browns essay upon
the subject, "Know Thyself," possess
ed considerable merit; her deep re-
search into the mysteries of the mind
and heart made a deep impression
upon the minds of the Institute.
Methods of teaching Grammar in
the 4th and 9th grades were discussed
by several of the teachers who failed
to agree as the best method of pre-
senting that difficult subject to class
of beginners; some advocating oral
instruction, while others adhered
closely to the textbook.
All eyes were now turned upon
that dread monster, THE Query Box.
Visitors were invited to participate
in this interesting exercise, and the
sudden demand on the secretary for
scrap-paper showed that they intend
ed to make use of the privilege, but
imagine their CONSERVATION when
such propositions and questions as
the following were profounded
"Describe the horizontal parallax
of the sun" One gentleman haying
misunderstood the proposition and,
consequently, becoming alarmed for
the safety of the great orb Of day,
arose and inquired-"What the hori
zontal paralysis Of tie sun2'
The gentleman TO whom the ques'
ton What is The moon ?' was as.lgn-
ed could think Of nothing but moon
shine 1t was, therefore, passed over
to the ladies'.
The Executive Committee made the
following report for next meeting:
l. Music-Miss Jackson.
2. Methods of teaching reading in
LIST grade-G. Il. Thompson.
3. Utility of teaching history in
combination with geography-J. W.
S. Cochrane.
f. Essay-T. G. Mason.

ny" ATTEMPTED ROBBERY.- bold
attempt was made to take from the WIN
dow of Mr.. J. 5. Flemings shoe store
three pairs of shoes, on Friday night
last, by an unknown colored woman.
The circumstances of the case are as
follows: About o'clock, Mr.. Fleming,
while at work in his shop which is con-
nected by door to his storeroom, was
attracted by a noise at the window OF
the store, and on going to see what the
cause was, discovered colored woman
leaving the window, and also discover
ed that three pairs of shoes which had
been hanging in the window for some
time were missing, and seeing the pa
per torn of of a broken glass, which he
had pasted over, he came to the conclu-
sion that the woman had taken the
shoes. He immediately started after
the supposed thief, but could not dis
cover her. On returning to his store
and looking around, he discovered the
shoes lying down on the floor near the
window, where be supposes she had
dropped them, on hearing them come
into the room, she not being able to
get them through the hole in the glass,
as they were all tied together, which if
such had not been the case she would
undoubtedly have succeeded in her bold
attempt OF robbery.
