INSTITUTE OF ARTS AND so1ENcEs.
Development OF the Brooklyn Organization.
and lts work Next Year.

The Brooklyn Institute OF Arts and Sciences
will open its new season on Thursday evening,
Sept. 30, with splendid prospects. A year ago
tho first section Of the museum building on
Prospect Hin was unfinished. Now IL Is open
to the public and Is visited daily by between
800 and 1000 people. Tho growth of the in-
stituto during tho past ten years has been a
source Of pride TO those WHIT have worked for
its success. Its endowment funds have been
increased from $37, 900 to S23O,O00 and its
annual income from $1,000 TO $4,000. Ton
years ago there were but 81 names enrolled on
Its books. To-day there are 1900.
Tho Brooklyn Institute Of Arts and Sciences
furnishes an excellent example of growth from
small beginnings. 1t was organized in 1924.
Tho cornerstone OF its first building was laid
Mt Henry and Cranberry streets on July 4,
1925, by Gen. Lafayette in the presence Of John
Quincy Adams. then President OF the United
states. The institute soon outgrcw its orig.
hall. Its second building was erected In 1888
At Washington and Concord streets. This
building will DO remembered for its classic
as the home of the institute from 1895 to 1890,
when 1t was sold to the city 10 make room for
an extension of tho Brooklyn Bridge.
The institute now holds It's lectures. concerts,
IN G5"m anydr,i realms Altman, and Sui GSHrsss , Of i n ion
Rca s 4 Of ' mSsis, the SS1Bha rookiyn ,n %r I Rssor snc
ton building in Montague street, Association
Hall, and the y, Nj. G., A. building in Fulton
street. The institute also occupies the largo
building in Bedford Park, where its library is,
and where portions OF its collections in botany.
zoology, mineralogy, geology, and geography
are ON exhibition.
During tho coming year tho lectures, CON
certs. dramatic readings, and courses of in
struction will be given in the buildings men
toned above. In addition to the lectures hero.
totorc given, branches of the institute will DO
established in williamsburg, East New York,
Grcenpoint, and several other sections of the
city. 1t is the purpose of the institute TO bring
its advantages within the reach Of all the poo
pie of Brooklyn.
The breadth OF the scope of the institute may
be Judged by the fact that there will be over
sixty courses of lectures, and that these will be
distributed among all the departments of art
and science represented in tho institute, TWEEN
ty-six in number. The catholicity of the insti-
tute is further shown by the fact that, among its
lecturers are representative scholars from
Harvard, Yale. Columbia, Princeton, Johns
Hopkins. and Wesleyan universities. the. Uni
versity OF Pennsylvania, and the Catholic Uni
versity OF America at Washington.
During the last year 9il new members were
enrolled In the institute and during the coming
season it is expected that the names OF over
1000 residents OF Brooklyn will be added to the
roll. increasing tho number of members TO
1900 or more,

The Chief Source or Them Said to BE Fish
Used In Making oil.

Inspector Phillips OF tho Board OF Health
transmitted to State Health COMMISSIONS Fow-
Ter yesterday IA report of an inspection Of Bar
rem Island made on Aug. 30. in which he states
that the chief source of complaint against the
fcrtilizing and rendering works results from
tho boiling of fish. III tho course Of the J ear
80. 900, 900 fish are boiled there to obtain oil
and fertiliZinR material. The residue, after tho
boiling process, Is stored in open sheds and
treated with a small amount of sulphuric acid.
There Is no attempt to prevent the escape OF
offensive odors. and the overflow of tho watts
runs on the ground and over the banks into the
waters OF the bay. Tho odors constitute an
intolcrablc nuisance and penetrate for miles.
Inspector Phillips says TINT the only method OF
nhatinS this nuisance will he the complete re-
noval OF the buildings and the thorough dis
infection OF their sites.
Another source OF complaint Is tho fertilizer
dust resulting from the manufacture OF fertil-
izing material. There IL no means adopted 10
prevent the escape into tho air of the fine par
ticles Of dust, Which are particularly objection
able. ~ each of the. particles continues to give
of offensive odors for a considerable period OF
time, and when carried by the wind to any part
OF tho surrounding country, produces a nuts,

windows and skylights of the factory closed.
