THE Boston Board of Aldermen have confirmed the nomination of J. R. Murphy to be fire commissioner for the unexpired term of Commissioner Fitzgerald. The board organized on August 17, by the choice of Robert G. Fitch as chairman. Those who are best acquainted with Mr. Murphy claim that the fire department and the public will find in him a thoroughly upright, competent, energetic young man, who will give earnest, intelligent attention to the duties devolving upon one of the most important boards in the modem Athens.
