Following upon the distribution exer-
cises of Wednesday the st. Mary
academy held yesterday its twentieth
annual commencement. and the neatly
decorated hall in which the exercises
were given was crowded by large
number Of students and spectators.
The exercises were praiseworthy
throughout and spoke well for the su-
periOr training received by students of
the academy. feature of unusual
merit was the essays, all Of which
exhibited marked originality and clear
ness IN thought and arrangement. The
Naiedlctory PAPER by Miss d. Ferguson
on "Esse guam videri" is worthy of
special mention as showing a gifted
literary style as we'll as other scholarly
requirements.
As is usual, however, at the academy
commandments, music was the lead
ing feature, and in this respect the
college upheld well its envlable repu-
1ation- In pianofOrte and the use Of
The harp the students were especially
adept and proficient. The music was
nearly all classic and most of it was
intricate and difficult, and the teachers
IN this branch may justly be proud Of
the success The pupils have attained
under their instruction. The harp was
much used in the musical numbers
and the execution by students upon
the tuneful instrument exhibited de-
cided talent and skill, the renditions
making strong impression upon the
large company.
