SCHOOL ROOM CLOSED
 BECAUSE OF DIPHTHERIA.
At Broadway School-Arthur Assad, Pupil in Miss Ciune's Room, Found Sick at Home,

A case of diphtheria discovered in one of the pupils of Miss Clunes room, third and fourth grades, at Broadway schooli, resulted in the closing of the room at noon on Thursday, and it will not be opened again till Monday Meanwhile the room will be fumigat- ed thoroughly.
 The child sick is Arthur Assad, whost parents live at 13 Franklin street. The residence of the parents has also been quaranttned by Health Officer Dr. N, B. Lewis.
 The boy was in school Wednesday and was not feeling well, but was not in school Thursday. The health officer learned of the case through Dr. Louis Cassidy, who was called to attend the boy on Thursday, and when he found that it was a case of diphtheria at once notified the health officer.
 All the precautions that can be talk en will be enforced by the health off, cer and the school authorities to guard against exposure of the pupils to in- lection.
 The health officer learned, he said, that the boy could not be received at the contagious ward at the Backus hospital because that was being funi- gated and renovated since the recent numerous scarlet fever cases, so that the boy is being carded for at his home.
