SECOND Days PROCEEDINGS
Growing Interest in the Teachers In
stitute at the Y. N. c. A.
Practical Topics Discussed at Yes
terdays Session in an Interesting
Manner by the Instructors-The
Subjects and Synopsis Of Each
Address-Proceedings in Detail.

There appears to be a growing inter-
est in the Wheeling teachers institute,
which is in session at the Y. NJ. c. A,
as evidenced not only by the excellent
attendance, but by the careful attention
which is paid to the instructors, and in
the discussions. The corps Of instruct
ors is composed Of able teachers, and
the institute will prove not only pleas
ant, but profitable, 10 all who attend.
The second day Of the institute was
opened by Prof. Gilbert, Of ST. Paul,
Language" being his topic. He said
the child, and not the subject matter, is
the center of education. Language COW
ers all means of expression, and good
grammar and good rhetoric are essen
tial in expressing noble thoughts. 1t
is the thought tina; dignifies and makes
the writing and not wholly the language
in which It IS clothed. You cannot
make a model without clay, neither can
the child write good composition I'M
less he has noble thoughts. The in
structor should stimulate the thoughts
of the child by taking him TO the fields
and woods, and teaching him to OBJ
serve the beauties Of nature. This will
give him food for thoughts which he
viii then be abe to express in language.
He explained that every lesson should
be a language lesson, after which fol-
lowed a lively discussion as to which
was the best method OF teaching ian
guage. Some very coed suggestions
were made by those who participated.
Miss Jones, of GAINESVILLE, gave q
brief lecture On physical culture. The
necessity OF correct position in stand
Ing and walking, AID the caring for the
physical as well as the mental and NOR
al man, were shown.
Dr.. Goody then spoke for short time
ION psychology, showing the relation Of
the subjective to the objective. He
dwelt for a short time on Authorizations,
hypnO1ism and the great power of one
mind over another. Dr.. GOody' lectures
are considered by al as the finest ever
delivered TO the teachers Of this city.
lie is listened to with the deepest inter-
est, and can be followed without any
effort on the part of his hearers.
One OF the most interesting parts Of
the days programme was Supt. Gill
berts afternoon talk with the teachers.
A very good idea was given OF the man
ner in which the ST. Paul schools are
conducted. ard they hope to be able to
profit thereby.
The Closing address on the subject of
History was made by DR.. Goody. Or.
GOody not only tells the teachers how
to teach history, but how TO study it.
Delegated power and reserved power
were thoroughly explained, and many
point made clear that before were OBJ
scure. The meeting closed with an in
creased attendance over that of yester-
day. The lecture Of DR.. Gordy was his
last, en- account of engagements else

Yesterday afternoon at a special ses-
sion of the Board of County Commits
siOners, Engineer Bell submitted his
report OF he damage done to the roads
of the county by the floods and rains OF

and Waddelrs and Warden's Run road
$500. Several roads sustained dam
age to the amount OF $500 each, and the
others we're smaller in amount. AS
there is no available funds for the pay
ment of the necessary repairs, some OF
the most pressing of which are under
way. the matter was referred to the fin
ance committee to provide ways and
means.
The Board took up the bill of the
West Virginia Printing Company, for
printing the annual delinquent lis OF
the county. and after long discussion
during which Prosecuting Attorney
Howard was called on for an opinion,
the matter was deferred until the regu-
lar session of Monday.

the condition of the culyert on the Ma

golden opinions by their lberality, kind
ness and consideration for the comfort Of
their visitors.
None of the preachers were allowed to
pay anything for entertainment or lodg

A JAM At THE THEATRE,
Too Big a Crowd for Public Safety Last
Night.


Too Big Crowd for Public Safety Last
Night.
Beach & Bowers, the old-time min
strel favorites, attracted an audience
which jammed Harper's theatre from
pit to dome last evening. The per-
torrance was an entertaining and
clever one in many respects, consid-
ering the small admission fee. Beach
& Bowers have evidently struck q
bonanza in making 2-night stands at
popular prices. They are most of the
show themselves. but there are some
good singers, dancers, acrobats. mu-
steal people aud contortionist
whose equal has never been seen in
Rock Island, with them. The canine
part of the entertainment is also
unique. Another performance will
be given tonight.
Crowd Was Too Large for Public Safety.
While thsre ought to be no dispo-
sition to begrudge the theatre man
agement of every cent it can make,
as there has not been a gold mine in
the contract of this play house in re-
cent years. yet it cannot be gain
sayed that desperate chances were
taken in packing the house as it was
last evening. For this condition the
police. though, were more to blame
than the house management, as this
department is supposed to exercise
discretion in such matters where
public safety is concerned. But
Chief Etzel was present and said
nothing, and the people were
crowded in until standing room was
at premium.
