Bishop Brewster was present at St Johns at the morning service at 10:30. He confirmed a class of AT, 26 young ladies and girls and 21 young men and boys. He gave special charge to the members of the class, urging them to ever bear in mind the principles of their religion and to shape their lives according to them. Bishop Brewster also preached the baccalaureate ser mon to the members of the graduating class of St Margaret's school. The young ladies occupied front seats in the church and attired in light dresses looked very pretty. The bishops dis course, which was eloquent, dealt with the higher ideals in life. He advised the young ladies to have lofty ideas of the aims and purposes of this life and to put them into force. Their thoughts should be of an elevated nature and their lives unblemished, standing forth as shining examples. It proved very interesting and instructive, not only to the graduates, but also to the large con- gregation which filled the auditorium and the galleries. 4 fine musical pro- gram was rendered, The Rev Francis T. Russell was present at the service. Tn the afternoon at 4 o'clock Bishop Brewster visited St Paul's, Waterville, and confirmed six persons.

want opium Exc1uded.

MANILA, June 1.-Opposition is de- veloping to the plan providing for the sale by the government of an exclusive opium concession. The Evangelical un- ion is urging that opium be entirely ex- cluded from the islands, claiming that its use is spreading and working great injury to the Filipinos. The union pre- diets that the granting of such a con cession would result in the spreading of the evil in a much greater degree. The Chinese and other residents op- pose the creation of such monopoly.

BOY HAD NARROW ESCAPE.
Asa York Fell Through Flooring in
 Mulcahy School Building.

MulCdly SCHOOL bulIuluS.
 Asa York of Luke street, boy about 12 years old, narrowly escaped fataa in- juries dn the Mulcahy school building yesterday afternoon. The place was open and crowds of boys made things interesting for themselves scampering through the different rooms at great risk to life and limb, holes appearing here and there in the flooring through which one could drop clear into the eel lar. But the principal pastinle consist ed of rding up and down on the chain ladder that runs from the first floor to the top of the building and travels so rapidly, especially on the downward trip, that you can hardly see 1t. In making the descent young York lost his grip and fell to the first floor landing so near the ladder that it hit him in the head at every turn Mrs Patrick Mori- arty of Baldwin street, who happened to be near the spot, grabbed the boy and pulled him to one side. Tn so doing her waist and skirt got smeared with blood so badly one would think she had figured in fight and got severe beating. But she didn't care about that. She saved life, and the krowl- edge of this fact more than made amends for the damage to her costume. The boy was carried to the house, where he was attended by pr Dwyer, Dr Kilmartin and Dr McLarney, who put fourteen stitches dn the deep gash that appeared on his head. Much indignation was expressed on account of the building being open and no one on the premises to keep children from clambering from cellar to the apex of the chimney. The building should be closed Sundays and evenings and the police instructed to arrest anybody found in 1t without the knowledge of the contractors.
