Teachers Institute.

The educational meeting held IN the
High school room yesterday was in the
nature OF a conference on subjects of Vita
interest to teachers, profitable and inter-
estng discussions arising over questions
handed in to County Examiner j. NJ
Comstock Of Chelsea, who presided.
There were about so in attendance, in
GLIDING Principal Wright and the teachers
of Bethel, Principal Z. II. Morrill, and the
teachers of the Normal school at the Gem
ter, Principal f. G.. Ham and the RAM
dolph teachers and others from adjoining
towns.
At the morning session corporal pun
ishment came under consideration aud il

suasion should not be allowed to lapse al

licking now and then doing good like a
medicine. Miss Jennie Stewart, who in

essary TO lay violent hands on boy once.

was asked for her opinion on this subject.
She believed IN a teachers maintaining
discipline through careful study Of pu-
pills and learning to govern without a rod I;
but, when a crisis arises, meeting and set
Ting il herself without recourse to princi-
pal or supervisor.
Reading lessons and the selection OF
matter called out various opinions. and
Miss Gates of the Normal wisely suggested
that legendary Literature, with which edu-
Gated people should be familiar and to
which illusions are constantly made. is
most eagerly read in youth and could with
advantage be embodied in reading books
for the grades
Rev. w. i. Sparhawk was called upon to
speak on this subject and paid a tribute to
the old-style reading books whose samples
of literature, perused again and again,
formed taste for good things that wild
er reading in later years could crafty.
Educational publications, hardness and
average attendance were the other topics
discussed.
In the afternoon Miss Evalyn Darling Of
Hartland, formerly supervisor OF drawing
in the state Normal schools, gave an ex-
cellent address and illustrated her remarks
with drawings hung about the room.
Whether grammar and English literature
should be taught together or separately
was topic that occupied portion OF the
afternoon but upon which no decision
was reached.

FATHER DENoUNcEs NATHAN.
Says Daughter Was Good Girl Until
She Met Him.

Boston, Nov. 7.-"My daughter Susie
was a good girl until she met Nathan
He got her into trouble. l believe him
to be the worst of the lot"
This was the remark of Cornelius
Geary, the father Of Susanna Agnes
Gaary, to a Globe reporter, last even
ing.
The old gentleman had not read the
details of the morning story regarding
the finding of the head. and apparently
knew little of the plans of the police
of having it identified by the mother
and sisters.
Mr.. Geary was employed for years by
a well-known firm of organ makers in
Cambridge. For some months he has
been employed as furniture polisher
by Robinson & Co. He is II years old
with gray hair and white moustache.
rather below the medium hight.
My daughter went on the stage
against my WILL" he said. 81 never
knew what her intentions We're until
she has been playing for some time.
Before that she had taken dancing les
sons and had prepared for it.
"When I found out that she had gone
on the stage 1 objected to it strongly,
and 1 told her mother that she must
have her quit. She kept on. however"
"When did you first suspect that the
remains found in the harbor were those
of your daughter" was asked.
"Never, until the rings were found.
Before she went away Susie told her
mother she was dissatisfied with the
new manager of the company. and that
she was tired out and nervous, and she
spoke, according to what her mother
has told me, Of going away for four or
five weeks.
"She always wrote home five or six
times a week, sending souvenir cards
and the like. When these failed to come
I began to get worried, but believed
that she had gone away somewhere to
take a rest, as her conversation with
her mother indicated.
81 never dreamed that the torso
found was that OF my daughter. until
the rings were found. Then I began to
think it was she, and now the identt-
fication of the head makes 1t certain"
Mr.. Geary said he did not know when
the funeral would be held or where the
body would be buried. He added that
he had a family lot at Leominster,
from which place he came to Cam
bridge some years aga. The family had
not considered the details, nor did he
know whether a funeral service at st.
Mary's would be held. l..
In contradiction to story published
in a paper other than the Globe. Mr..
Geary said that his wife was widow
when he married her. Her former hus-
H. Maanans a died I'm
ireland many years ago.
Mrs. Geary did not return from Bos-
ton, where she saw the head OF her
daughter, until late.

that recount will be demanded and
the result contested. Assuming, how
ever. that Mcclellan was elected, it was
by so small plurality that his victory
practically lacked glory. VIM. NJ.
WINS. the Republican nominee, was
| third in the race for mayor and ran far
| behind Hearst.
| Bird 5. COlcr was elected borough
president OF Brooklyn on the Municipal
| ownership ticket, and Hearst carried
| mat borough by plurality of 1858.
Inc returns UP to IL o'clock indi-
Gated that McClellan's pluralities in
| Manhattan and the Bronx and Rich
mond would more than overcome the
Hearst pluralities in Brooklyn and
Queens.
Hearsts large vote shows that the
Municipal Ownership League must be
! reckoned with as a factor in the city's
politics. COler's election as president
of the borough Of Brooklyn gives the
league representation on the, board OF
estimates and apportionment which
has control Of the city.
The weather, today was ideal, aid
ing greatly in the polling OF q large
vote. There was little disorder and
although many arrests were made they
frequently were due to misunderstand-
ing or clerical errors and only q few
men were held for trial. More split
ting of tickets was done than ever be-
fore, yet the voting was unusually rap.
i'd. An incident of the day was the de-
sertion of several hundred of Mr..
Hearst's poll watchers who went over
to the opposition.
Analysis of the vote for mayor shows
that Hearst polled a little more than
100000 votes and that these votes were
drawn almost equally from the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties. Nc
Clellan's vote this year was about
10000 smaller than his vote of two
years ago, while WINS vote was about
125,0OO smaller than loves vote of
two years ago.
These figures. however, may not be
entirely accurate, owing to the fact
that number Of Republicans probably
voted for Mcclellan in order to aid in
the defeat of Hearst.
With % election districts missing in
Manhattan. the vote was:
Mcclellan, 11S,442: Hearst, 1O1 691:
WINS. 54,656. giving Mcclellan a plu-
rality Of 1872. In the borough Of

for Hearst of 1888.
In Queens. with four missing dis
tricts. Hearst had a plurality of 721
votes. and in Richmond Mcclellan won

William T. Jerome, Independent, IL re-
elected district attorney by about 5000
over James w. Osborne, Democrat.
At midnight Mr.. Hearst declined to
admit his defeat and declared his in
