Closing of the School Year.

Last Thursday and Friday were the most
eventful days of the year to scholars and
teachers, which interest was largely shared
by parents and citizens who have just
pride and satisfaction in their success.
Wednesday forenoon the Primary Schools
and the G Grammar had their literary ex-
ercises and promotions. The ability to
write well and to read and sing by note,
taking their separate parts, is marked
feature in present Primary School accom-
plishment,s and there are pupils in each
school whose future superiority as men and
women is Just as certainly foreshadowed in
present application and scholarly ability as
anything can be. The delightful thing
about the last day of school is not the pretty
picture the boys and girls make on "dress
parade - though it is enough to pay one to
go some distance to see so many fresh, new
and handsome gowns and carefully groomed
children, or so many bright, expectant faces.
Nor is it altogether the pleasant impression
given by such proficiency in school drill,
and talent in writing and speaking, but
more than all it is the promise one sees
here of what good citizens, what choice so
ciety, what useful and well equipped men
and women the world is going to have q
few years hence, when these children shall
be in its active work, producers of its orig
inal thought, helpers in its philanthrophy,
leaders and teachers among men, expert
menters in science, inventors in the me-
chanic arts, solving problems in finance,
having responsibility in trade, or serving
their fellows in the professions. This is all
coming to pass, and more. The time will
come when some of these who have not yet
taken High School honors, will be such
peers among men and women that the Wis
itors who smile patronizingly on them now
will be rather abashed before them; and
School Boards and instructors may live TO
see the day when they will meet them with
Difference, and Professors be doubtless glad
that they were honored with any part in
guiding their education.
We are annually surprised to find how
many talented young people we have
among us. A great many faces in that
formidable school procession, that twice a
day during the school days of the
year, march down from the big building
like an army, which timid people get out
Of the way of, are never known by name to
the most Of us unless we chance to hear
them called on promotion day. These
names are, many times, to the fathers and
mothers who have children among them,
} as familiar as household words, for, clan
nish and communicative, the little folks are
the most faithful reporters in the world.
Thirty-six were promoted from the A
Grammar to the High School. On this
occasion, the exercises of which occurred

Telephones and Thunder storms.

During the thunder storm of June 18th,
Albert swineford, q boy Of Is years, stand
ing before window into which home
made telephone line terminated, was struck
by lightning and instantly killed A
young man in the room of another house
100 rods distant at the other end of the
wire was severely stunned.
It Is the sheerest folly to place oneself
in the vicinity of good conductors Of cleo
triciy during 9 thunder storm. It is best
TO be at q distance from the stove or fire.
place or chimney or open door or window,
and not to be handling metal implements
when there is electric disturbance, or q
storm very near. A very little reading on
the habits of electricity is sufficient to in
form one about what is safe and what i'm
prudent Many people seem to have an
unusual spasm of industry when violent
storm is raging. If a jag of hay is out the
hands must keep right on pitching, or the
moving away must proceed though the
heavens fall. If a meal is in progress Of
preparation, with knife and fork in hand,
some women win stand over the frying
pan while the lightning's play, or continue
to use the shears and needle as If life de-
pended ON il, and take not the slightest
precaution to avoid danger. But all these
show lack of common intelligence.
Recklessness is not bravery. In this age
it IS our business to know what is safe and
what is not. Providence does not protect
men who disregard plain natural law.
The saying that people die only when their
time has come is the expression of igno-
rance. Children can be taught to be pru-
dent in avoiding danger without increas-
ing their fears or making them less cour-
ageous. In the use of the telephone, those
who wish to send messages when a storm
is near, should consider that in doing so
they may endanger life at any one of the
three points, the one who calls, the opera
tor at the Exchange and the one who an
swers the message.
It should be explained that the accident
mentioned in the first paragraph was on
an acoustic telephone, without ground
connections and not on an electric tele-
phone, which always have ground connec-
tions and are therefore much less danger
GUS We have yet to hear of any injury
resulting from the use of Bell telephone.
As matter of prudence 1t is, however, adj
vised to keep away from them in thun-
der storm. 1t should be understood also
that there is still greater reason for our
vacating an Office into which fifty wires
enter, even if the storm should not seem
very severe, that number of wires furnish
such an amount of conducting material as
to make it safer to keep away. When sub
scribers do not get answers in such cases
they may understand this is the reason.

THE Emigration Commissioners held

migration from Great Britain. This action
was called for in view of the large arrival
of paupers on the steamer Furnessia on the

that he had procured affidavits from sew
eral of the immigrants, showing that
they had been inmates of poor houses
in Ireland and were induced to
come to this country by the workhouse
masters, from whom they had received
The Commissioner considered the landing
of paupers largely due to the laxity in the
management Of Castle Garden and recon-
mended that inspectors be appointed who
would not be afraid to do their duty.
After farther discussion 1t was re-
solved to instruct the Secretary of
the Board TO detain all emigrants

by the British Government and to appoint
a committee of the Board to wait ON the
Collector Of the Port and to present the affi-
davits taken in regard to such cases and
