Teachers, Institute.

The annual institute for teachers of the
Burlington county schools was opened
yesterday morning in the opera house.
There was large attendance, the teachers
being compelled by law to be present.
Owing to this legal compulsion the schools
of Burlington county will be closed for
three days this week. Thursday being
Thanksgiving day, will also be holiday,
and in many of the townships the teachers
did not observe election day, but take the
day after Thanksgiving day. SO that many
of the schools will be closed the entire
week. AS consequence there will be
several hundred children running at large
this week. but the very great benefits the
teachers derive from the institute care ex
pected to amply compensate for the loss
the children may entail from forced
absence.

Susan A. Reilly and T. D. Sensor. The

Theatres.
CHESTNUT STREET THEATRE,
PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA.
"The College Widow" a picturesque
play of student life in a modern college
town, by George AIDE, the clever humorist,
will be presented by the Orpheum Players
at the Chestnut Street Theatre, Philadel-
phia, this week. No happier or more
appropriate selection than 1.-THE College
Widow could have been made for the
week of Thanksgiving. In recent years
football, the most popular of all college
sports, has become closely associated with
Thanksgiving Day, and in 1.-THE College
Widow" the annual gridiron struggle be-
tween two rival colleges is made the most
important as well as the most interesting
of the four acts. ''The College Widow
is essentially a football p1ay-its chief
theme is football, and the pretty love
story that is no small feature of the play,
reaches its climax at the football game.
In addition to the lively stage pictures
there is an absorbing story, unique in
idea and very much out of the routine of
love tales. The College Widow-so called
because she has the reputation of captur-
ing a new sweetheart every years. the
daughter of the college president. When
the new term opens the managers of the
football squad realize that there is lack OF
sufficiently good material to build up a
team that would defeat the rival college
So when Billy Bolton, famous young
half back, stops off at Atwater College on
his way to Bingham the College Widow
is appealed to by the football enthusiasts
to exercise her wiles upon Billy in an eff.
fort to keep him at Atwater. How well
she succeeds and with what results car
best be learned by seeing the play. In
the Orpheum production Marion Barney
will be seen as the College Widow, and
William Ingersoll will play the part OF
Billy Bolton. The entire company will be
in the cast, and as there are exceptionally
good character parts for all the Orpheun
Players they will be seen to unusually
good advantage. The production will be
staged under the personal supervision OF
Mr.. Percy Winter.

General Notes.

The star of Bethlehem, the star which
guided the wise men of the East, may
now be seen any morning just at day
break in the eastern sky. 1t is very bright
and can be easily distinguished from the
other stars. Astronomers say that this
star is visible now for the first time In
500 years, and that it will not be coming
this way for the next 500 years.
STOPPING over to lift bucket of water
frem 25-foot well, at Beverly, two one
dollar bills 1uttered from Mrs. Antoine
Meckendorff's shirt waist, yesterday, and
dropped to the bottom. Stepping into the
bucket to follow the cash, the woman
lost her hold and fell, landing In four feet
of water. She shouted for help and some
men let down rope. By the aid of this
she was hauled to the surface. Mrs
Meckendorff sustained broken arm but
she got the money.

EVER since the primary election there
haye been loud cries about the failure of
the primary election law, the main object
ion appearing to be the great use of money
to debauch the voters. From various
quarters come the statements that high
prices were paid for votes and that the
expenditure was enormous. These reports
are not apparently on rumor, but those
who make the assertions do 80 with every
assurance of positive knowledge. If this
is the case there will not be much trouble
to at least start movement to remedy the
"great evil" II the evidence is at hand
1t certainly can be presented to grand
jury, and the character of the men drawn
by Sheriff Worrell shows that the matter
would be given due consideration. If
those who have such absolute knowledge
can summon sufficient nerve to attempt to
secure reformation something may be ac-
accomplished, but nothing will ever be
done on mere rumor. When the Borden
town election officers acted illegally they
soon found out there was way to reach
them.
