 OPENING OF SEMINARY.
 The opening exercise of the Birming- ham seminary this week gave promise of a very successful year for the school. The seating capacity of the assembly hall was not sufficient to seat the pat rons, school girls and friends of the institution, for it was an event of great interest," to many. The religious exer- oises, the first part of the programme, were conducted by Dr. l.. s. Handley. This was followed by a short faculty recital Miss Jones played two piano solos. Miss Paulsen sang, 70 Divine Re- iop bx group of Folk Songs.p Miss Shinn played violin solo that was enthusas- tically3 encored and Miss Roquemore gave two readings, "An Object of Love-" by Mary Mullins Freeman. and "The Oth- CT Nice Man." by Henry Van Dyke. Miss Roquemore is a delightful reader, gifted with the ability to arouse her audience and carry them with her in both the humorous and the pathetic. Miss Shinn and Miss Jones are already well known as artists in the city.
 After the programme in reply to Dr. Handley's request for brief words of welcome and wisdom from visiting min isters, Dr. Dickinson, Rev. Mr. Arch ibalds Dr. Moore and pr. Branscombe all spoke Their talks were full of humer and of good wishes and congrat- ulations The thirteenth year in the history of the school has begun auspic- iousiy, with unusually large matricula- tion. Of the corps of 20 officers and teachers only three are new.
