tional convention was changed from

the result of some controversy that has

legal time required between the two
conventions.

A FORMER RECTOR OF TRINITY PARISH

1 A FORMER RECTOR OF TRINITY PARISH
 Rev s. Stcbbins Sucking, for 90 years
 rector of Grace church, Sauth Oyster
 Bay, l.. [ , died at his residence, in
 Jamaica, on Sunday morning, May 24, 1906. He was graduated from Wesleyan
 University in 1885 with high honorq, and 1 for several years held important positions l in educational institutions in New Eng ! land. In lS4O be was ordained deacon l by Bishop Browneu, and in lS4l was
 ordered priest, Immediately after whiuh 1 he was elected to the rect0rship of Trinity
 church, Ncwtown, Conn.,, at that time one of the largest and most important l parishes in New England. This he de- clined on the ground that he was too young to justify the undertaking of so important a work, and accepted the rac- torship 0 St A Il irew's pari, h, Meriden, in the same diocese. The following year he was again elected rector of Trinity church, NewtOwn, and accepted, remain ing there eight years, and leaving a re- cord of godly life and pastoral labor which is until this day one of the perma- nent treasures of that venerable parish. An attack of acute laryDgitis, brought on by ovefWork, compelled him to resign in lSl9, and in the following year he fOund- ed St Marks Hall. Orange, 8 classical boarding school for boys, where he taught with signal success for 10 years.
 His health being completely restored, he removed ro Jamaica, from which point he served Grace parish, South Oyster Bay, as rector for p years, being rector emeritus at the time of his death. His splendid physique, courtly manners and charming personality made him most
 welcome friend and conspicuous figure in every social and ecclesiastical circle, and
 the beat -i teal of Christian gentleman and priest. He married in lS4O Miss Sarah Stanley Mallory, only daughter of Rollin C. Mallory, Member of Congress from Puultney. NU., who survives him,
 without children. Impressive funeral services were held on Wednesday, inI Grace church, Jamaica, Bjshop Little- john, Deaa CUxe, If Garden City cathe- dral, Rev Dr smith, president of Trinity college, and Rev Mir Wiley officiating A large number of the clergy were in attendance, of whom the elder ones were honorary pail bearers, and minute pre- pared by them as an expression of their loving regard for their departed brother 1 was read from the sanctuary. The in- terment was in the venerable and pictur- l esque churcbyard, under the shadow of
 superb and stately cross erected by the deceased priest in anticipation of his de
 parture, and bearing the inscription pre-
 pared by himself, and which formulated the rule and spirit of his whole lovely l life: "A me abeat gloriari, nisi in Cruce. " 'In pace. "- The Churchman.

THE DOCTORS MEETING.
DANBCHY MEDICAL SOCIETY ENTERTAIN
 ED BY DIR SMITH AT VIEWPOINT.

The monthly meeting of the Danbury Medical society was held last evening with pr Smith, of Nowto WI, and was one of the most enjoyable of the season, as we'll as one of the most profitable. Dr Smith is noted for his generous hos pi5ality and lag5 nights affair was no disappointment to those who expected to be well entertained.
 There were present from D4nbury Drs Clark, Lommor, Brownlee, Watson, Bennett, Wood Gordon, Brown, Craig, 6tratton and Selleck; Drs Day and Barber from Bethel; Dr Gordon from Sandy Hook; Dr Smith from Brookfeld, and Col Smith, father of Dr Smith, of Newtown.
 The business of the meeting was the discussion of the antitoxine treatment for diphtheria. The discussion was opened by pr S5ratton, of Danbury, and many of the physicians present spoke on the subject.
 Dr J. Alexander Wade was to have read paper, but was sick and unable to be present. Although there is usually much skepticism in regard to new treat ments for dangerous diseases, this dis cussion developed the fact that the mem- bers of the Danbury Medical society lput full confidence in the antitoxine treat ment.
 Following the business meeting was a collation. with the following menu
 Chicken Croquets, Lobster Salad,
 Oyster Salad, Olives,
 Fresh Tomatoes,
 Cucumbers, Sandwiches,
 lee Cream, Black Coffee, Cigars.
 At the meeting Drs Craig and Gordon of Danbury were appointed pathologists for the Danbury Medical society.
 The meeting was pronounced one of the best and most profitable in the his tory of the society, and the hospitable entertainment by pr Smith contributed in no small measure to making it SO. At the next meeting of the society the subject for discussion will be tubercu losis, the discussion to be opened by Dl Brown.-[D [Danbury News.
