THE Conoregationalist Of Boston hal
AN item which viii be of interest to Oui
readers, as follows: 'The New England
Conservatory Of Music held its closing
exercises in fremont Temple, June 23d
the edifice being filed. Diplomas were
awarded to 65 students in the various
departments of music, art and oratory
Rev. G. A. Dickinson having seached the
baccalaureate at Berkeley Temple ON the
lpreviOus Sunday The resignation OF
DR.. @. Cotton Kimball, as principal OF
the school of literature and the Ian
guages, is a serious loss to the institu-
ton. He has filled the place with marked
success for four years; has also served
as pastor of the students, and rendered
valuable aid in, the business office. He
goes for the present to Utica, N. Y.
THE new fire alarm went into opera
ton last Monday At 1880 each noon
two strokes of the bell is given to see
that the apparatus is in working order
Phe strokes to indicate the location by
the numbers upon the boxes, the loca-
ton of these boxes have been published
by us. The rules and regulations are to
be printed in small card form for popu-
lar use. Meantime Chief Tiffany has had
prepared for the use of hose companies
large charts of the village with the sys-
tenn lettered thereon in red figures, the
calls, etc., being also printed thereon.
We think Mai. +. NJ. Tiffany should re-
ceive the thanks, as he no doubt will, of
our people for his efforts in this direc-
ton. The use of the alarm for a year
we are to have in any event, and person
ally, we have no doubt the village will
vote to buy the system outright in the
end.
BEFORE us lies an Arabic newspaper,
printed wholly in that tongue save only
these words: ALAhrdm. Les PyrdDlideS.
The characters seem to beuniform and
the advertisements have no d iplay type.
There are three illustrations: a steam
engine. a gear. and machine. This was
sent here with the Compliments of
