THE THATCHER INSTITUTE.

L
session on the 5'h day of September.
In its advertisement there is found
no vainglorious boastings of its supel-
Tor advantages, but the simple,
modest statement, The enterprising
and successful young men of the city
and vicinity who have been students
IN this school, whether in business. at
the bar or in the medical profession,
are our references" Aye, and they
are references which speak in tones
which outrival the notes of the bugle
blast of this institute as an educator.
This institution has been in existence
but few years, but in that time it
has won name in the world of ed
vocational instruction which should
be exceedingly gratifying to every one
connected with it. As each scbolss-
tic year closes there goes from its
portals graduates who in the world
of busy care, attest by their success
full careers in every branch of indus
try, the thoroughness of the instruc-
ton received while a student in this
institute.
We said previously that the
Thatcher Institute had been in ex-
istence but few years. That is
true, but the name of Thatcher has
for quarter of centory or more
been before the public as a school
teacher, whose ability would enable
him to shine with brilliant luster in
comparison with those connected
with institutions of far more high
sounding names. The Thatcher
Acadamy had a reputation which
should cause the warm blood of
pride to course through the veins of
any man, however modest; long be-
fore the institute was e;en dreamed
Of 1t is of this we can write best,
for it recalls recollections Of our OWL
experience under the dear old teacher
Prof. George E. Thatcher, Captain
Thatcher" his old scholars loved tc
call him.
1t has been said, and we think wise
ly, that he who instills in scholars the
ambition to study, is the best in
structor. For peculiar ability il
this direction we commend Captain
George E. Thatcher. The student
who could be under his instruction
for any length of time, listen tc hi
quiet, earnest talks. and not be i'm
pressed with the desire to be some
thing more than an indifferent parti
Gle of humanity in the worlds broad
field of battle" was an anomaly whicl
no one would care to understand Wei
do we remememb-r those old DAYS
when no one but the Captain and hi
estimable life conducted the schoo
How kind, how considerate, how at
) tentive the dear old preceptor was t
the scholar who desired to study
In our several years of attendanc
, there we never found our friend tn
teacher, too tired, too hungry, to
much occupied with private bushes

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-The board of con,
troll of the national worlds fair commits
sion proposes to have the respective
powers of the commission and of the
local directory definitely outlined. AT
the meeting Of the board of control Fri
day morning Director General Davis
sent in a communication saying that
the White Star line of steamers had APP
piled for space for an exhibit; that on
his assurance that space would be
granted the company had gone to con-
siderable expense, but that the grounds
and buildings committee refused to
grant the necessary space. The director
general desires the action of the board
on the matter. Messengers were sent to
the members of the grounds and build
ings committee, but as they could not be
gotten together then the board appointed
committee of three to meet the
grounds and buildings committee, to de-
fine the relative powers of the national
and local bodies in the matter of rules
and regulations in regard to exhibits and
their installation.
