wE1zEL COUNTY INsTIruTE.

Resolutions Adopted Mt the Recent Meeting
Of tho Teachers.
10 he Editor ofthe IRttIstqeneer.
slR:-The following resolutions were
adopted by the Wetzel County Institute, at
Burton, September Is, 1885:
WHEREAS, We, the teachers OF Wetzel
county, do pass the following resolutions:
First-Resolred, That it ia the sentiment
OF this Institute that tho Legislature Of
West Virginia should pass q law whereby
more uniformity in grading teachers
certificates may be attained. First-That
this law shall provide for committee to
select and arrange questions for county
examinations throughout the State. Sec
ond-That the State Superintendent OF
Public Instructions DO made President OF
such comm ttee, with the principals OF the
State Normal School as his ASSISTANTS.
Third-That the same list OF questions be
used in the examination in each county.
Fourth-That in order to prevent teachers
from going from one county to another,
in order 10 procure better graded Certif.
cate, tbs State Superintendent shall ap-
point day on which the examinations
shall be held throughout the State.
Second-Since we are compelled to
attend an institute each year. be it re-
solved that twenty days taught should
constitute a school month, and that the
school term should be five months instead
OF four.
Third-That we do protest against those
who are addicted to drunkenness having
the right to be admitted to examination,
as we, in our opinion, look upon all such
teachers as being disgrace to the profess
sion, and humbly ask our Honorable
Board Of Examiners to reject all such
teachers from examination.
Fourth-That wGado hereby extend our
many thanks to Professor Sipe, our in
struCtor, and Superintendent Haskins,
President, for their untiring services in
conducting the institute, and that we
recognize Professor Sipe as one OF the-yery
sblest educators Of tho State, and feel that
the Board OF Regents has displayed wis
dom in securing him as Principal CT the
Fairmont Normal School, and hope it will
be their pleasure to retain him as such.
Fitth-That we deplore the death OF
Prof. S. w. Martin, late Principal OF the
New Martinsville High School, and feel
that owing to bis loss we have been de.
prived OF one Of our ablest educators.
Sixth-That we tender our many thanks
to Misses Ada Black, Minnie Philips and
Carrie LETTERS for the services rendered at
the organ by them; to the choir for their
able assistance and also to Miss Marvelle
for entertaining us with several choice
Rotations.
seventh-That we extend our thanks to
the citizens Of Burton and vicinity for
their hospitality shown us during this
Institute, and also to Miss Maggie Hunt
for the use Of tho organ.
Eighth-Thata copy OF these resolu-
tons be sent to each Of the county papers,
the Wheeling Register, the Wheeling In.
TELLIGENcRR and tho West Virginia School
Journal for publication.

Qhe qateIEdGescar,


1t seems very difficult 10 get anything
through the head of the Chief OF Police.
In view Of his refusal to act, or to give
any indication OF his intention to inquire,
the ISrELLIoRNCKR published so much OF
the case against Officer Burns as 1t was
necessary to publish. Burns was brazen
enough to declare the publication to be
false and malicious, and the Chief OF
Police is either weak enough to believe
him or for some reason Is afraid to dis
miss him.
II the Chief OF Police was in utter
ignorance Of Burns conduct before the
ISrELLIeEScER's publication, he knows
more now. He began to make inquiries
and we are able 10 say that he found con-
Armation before he had gonc far. 1t is to
be hoped that he is pushing a bona hde
inquiry, and we shall think so until we
have reason 10 believe that he is tamper
ing with the witnesses. We have taken
some precautions with regard to this
feature Of the case and do not fear any
serious trouble on that score.
An investigation by Council at the re-
quest Of the Chief Of Police is talked OF
Since his men are his own appointees and
he is responsible for them, the Chiei
ought to have the coursge to do right on
his own responsibility. II he will just
stop to think he will realize that Council
has not been very happy in affairs of this
kind. He will doubtless remember that
police matter in which Council had jur'
isiiction was contemptuously referred &c
the Committee on Elections, and that IS
an investigation that particular episode
was disgrace.
When the INTELLIoEEcER began its OWL
inquiry it gave notice that Council would
not be troubled by this newspaper. There
is no reason 10 change front now. Il
Council desires to make inquiry on it,
own account, the field is open. The In
TELLIeEScER has all the material it wantt
in the Burns case and has no occasion &c
look further. What has appeared in these
columns is true, by careful inquiry asCer'
tanned to be true, and Published as a pull
lie duty because there was no other way
to accomplish the same public end.
This much done, the reputable tax
payers Of this city will want to know il
there is no escape from maintaining on the
police force in their peculiar kind Of luxu'
rious ease such fellows as Burns. And il
the Chief Of Police does not dismiss ar
officer OF the Burns kind, the people viii
naturally want to know why.

The success OF the pronouncing match
at the Opera House Fridday evening is q
matter for public congratulation. The
audience was SO highly pleased and
edited that the entertainment will surely
BIO repeated, and unlike some OF the
recent popular crazes, this one cannot be
INDUCED to too great an extent. II there
were any doubt as to the desirability Of
some means OF interesting the general
public In the srt Of properly speaking the
English language, it must have been re-
moved by the contest referred to, for il
was there developed that m.ny OF the
words in common use are often mispro'
nounced.
Allover the house ladies and gentlemen
who had not the courage to appear on the
platform and pronounce audibly were
heard TO utter soto r0ce the words given
the contestants. The majority OF these
pronunciations doubtless agreed with
those Of the pronouncer on the stage, right
or wrong, for local usage is apt to be pref
ty uniform. In some cases signs Of gem
eral protest could be seen in the audience
when some familiar utterance Of q word
was declared to be wrong. This was es'
pecially so with exemplary" which was
given with the sharp sound and with
the accent on the ''em." The judges
pronunciation, egz'em-pler.y," was greet.
ed with murmur Of disapproval; yet
there is no authority for any other pro-
nunciation. "Aggrandize" was also q
word which evidently the majority in the
house were accustomed TO mispronounce,
and "apotheosis" another.
The desirability Of general familiarity
with the proper utterance Of such words is
apparent, and nothing SO quickly attracts
attention to popular error as its Correc
tionin the public presence.
The difficulty experienced in the pro
nunclation Of alternate" "Asiatic,
"bombast," bronchitis" brooch,
"buoy," Cayenne" and others as com
mon, by persons who are admitted to bt
well informed above the average, illus
trates torcibly the necessity for an occa
nional drill. Words in which long I
occurs almost invariably hoored the con
testants. Why such word as tubular
should BIO called "toob-you.lar" is is dill
cult to conjecture, yet the distinction be
tween the two long us, which SHOULD
BIO sounded alike, is very generally made
"Eluslye," ''enthusiasm" were othel
words Of this class that were unSpronounc
cd. 1t is probable that had the wore
"new" been given before attention wa
directed to this sound, it would have been
missed. The proportion Of people who
call this word moo" to those who prop
erly say "nu" is large. Yet nobody calls
"pew" "poo."
Analogy, to be sure, is not always safe
guide; else "amenity" and "amenable''
would not present the arbitrary difference
In the Q Of the second syllable. This is
but one instance which suggests itself
among many which exist, and this peculi-
arity Of the Language increases the neces-
sity Of constant practice in the pronuncia-
ton Of words.

Raising the Dead.
Tg-.f.


Dr. Richardson, in a recent number
of The A%scloprad, suggests some serious
reflections on the questions of what is
death. When does death occur, May
life be restored after actual death ~
combining artificial circulation" with
artificial respiration a dog was restored
to life n hour and va minutes after
Icing killed by an overdose of chloro-
form. the heart being perfectly still,
cold and passing into rigidity. Animals
that have been killed by su osation the
heart and other viscera displayed by par
tial dissection, were SO far brought into a
state of muscular irritability that the
experiment was stopped from motives
of humanity. lest the mutilate body
should return to conscious sentient life.
Frogs poisoned by nitrate OF amyl werc
restored after nine days of apparent
death. in one case after signs of putre-
factive change had commenced.
Various methods OF affecting these
resuscitations are described, the most
original and o Iective being that of
pumping warm dsfbrinated and o "
genized blood into an artery in such a
manner that the stroke of the pump
shall correspond with the natural pulsa-
lions of the artery, and to the stroke of
the heart, which is thus awakened to its
customary work. The action OF perox-
ide of hydrogen in terminating the
blood and restoring animal heat in a
really dead body is quite startling. br.
richardson's paper appears to justify
the conclusion that a drowned or su o.
Gated man is not hopeless'y dead so
long as t1t DO lily organs remain unin-
ured by violence or disease, and the
blood remains sufficiently liquid to be
set in motion artiicially, and supplied
with a little oxygen to start the chemi-
cal movements Of life.

In health, Paris is on a level with a
hundred other places. II has nothing
OF its own to o er. Its climate pre-
sents n fair average Of the qualities and
faults OF central continental weather;
the air is drier and more yivifying than
thnt of ngland; extremes of heat and
cold arc sometimes felt, but they are
unfrequent, strong winds are rare: and
though fogs have become somewhat &C
climRtisod of late years. the air is on
the whole fairly bright and pleasant.
But the same atmosphere may be found
almost everywhere along the same par
allel of latitude.
The sanitary conditions are good; the
sewerage is excellent; the water is
abundant and pure, and the precautions
against Infection in all its forms ara
minute and well applied. The material
conditions Of life are, however, growing
70 much alike in all large towns that we
are living everywhere under more and
mor similar Influences, and II may be
sad without much inexaotness that, so
far as Europe is concerned. what used
to be called especially n healthy or un-
healthy place is becoming difficult to
Ind.
kpidemies come and 20 in Paris as
they do IN other centers of population,
hut they are seldom traceable to local
causes, and usually assume n general
character. But all these qualities are
merely negative; they imply the absence
OF OF %eetions, not the presence OF recon.
~mendationsi faris possesses no positive
advantages in climate or health, and
English people will not be tempted 10
live in II Tor reasons of that sort.
