Rev. Fredericl1 S. Hipking Granted


The citizens of Oakland will no
doubt remember Rev. Frederick S.
Hipkins, rector of st. Matthew's
church here a number of years ago,
and the trouble he brought upon the
parish by his unwarranted action in
breaking the church doors open and
conducting service after he had been
summaaily dismissed by the congre-
CATION. He is again brought before
the public according to the following
dispatch3which appeared in the New
York Herald Tuesday, dated at
Larchmont, n. Y:
The fashionable members of st.
Johns Episcopal parish in this place
were surprised this morning when
they read in the Herald a dispatch
from Fargo, n. D., telling that the
Rev. avedGrick S. Hipkins had been
granted divorce on Saturday from
his wife, Sue r. Hipkins, on the ground
of cruelty.
The clergyman, until last Septem-
Der, was the rector OfSt.J Johns church,
lived in the handsome rectory adjOin-
ing the church.
1t was noticed that Mrs Hipkins
never accompanied her husband or
took part in the amusements of the
manor. She kept in seclusion in the
rectory and few of the congregation
ever saw her. Little was known of
her beyond the fact that she was a
Southern woman of rare beauty.
1t was suddenly announced last
September that Mrs. Hipkins was
suffering from mental alteration and
that her husband had sent his resig-
nation to the vestry as rector of the
parish and was to be succeeded by
the Rev. Richard Golden, of st.
Marks, New York. The Rev. and
Mrs. Hipkins went away suddenly,
without the formality of a farewell
reception.
Members of the vestry were unani-
nous in denying that the rector's
resignation was due to any complaint
against him, and have always siren
uously maintained that the Rev. Mr.
Hipkins resigned voluntarily in order
to take his wife to Alabama for her
health.

Maryiaud Fisheries,

A correspondent writing in the
american Field from Baltimore,
speaking of the work being done by
the Maryland Fish Commission has
the following to say, of local interest: {:
AssistantFishCOm OmmissionerGeorge,
stationed at the Druid Hill Park
Hatchery, has been very busy for two
weeks distributing trout in the west
ern part of the state. have been ably
assisted by members of the association
in restocking the streams in Freder-
ick, Carroll and Baltimore counties.
By the time this is in print, the 350,-
600 Matched at the Druid Hill Park
Hatchery will be distributed.
Mr.. John f. Gnagey is the fish COM
missioner for Western Maryland, and
attends to prOpagating bass and trout.
The principal hatchery for the West
ern Shore is in Druid Hill Park, in
Baltimore, and is in charge of Mr.. A.
f. George, assistant Commissioner.
Our association is delighted with the
splendid lot of trout fry hatched un-
der Mr.. Georges supervision. Mr..
GnageY is making preparations to
propagate bass on large scale.
The readers of the american Field
will observe that the American Game
and Fish Protective Association is at
work and the results are most salts
factOrily. The state fishery force, the
game wardens' department and the
association are all in close touch,
working together harmoniously for
the propagation of game and fish and
a vigorous enforcement of the game
and fish laws.

Hotel Illumination,

Never did the Oakland Hotel look
prettier than on Tuesday night last
when the electric lights were turned
on from the station and flood of
light poured from every window from
cellar to attic, upon the porches and
from the lofty gables. The house be-
ing newly painted and thoroughly
repaired, it takes on the appearance
of a new and modern structure, and
we feel sure it will be filled this sea-
son with desirable lot of guests. 1t
should be, at least, as the manage
ment is sparing no pains nor expense
to make it success and to reclaim
some of its lost prestige as a summer
hotel.

Killed by a Falling Tree.

Mr.. Russell Friend, son of Mr.. Au-
gustine Friend, residing at Friends
vile, this county, was killed on Mon
day evening of this week whilst en-
gagged in cutting timber above the
Club House on Mauor Land. The
tree he was cutting split on the stump,
part remaining attached to it and the
other section springing backward,
catching the unfortunate young man
in its backward movement, disem-
boweling him and pinioning him to
the ground. He lived about twenty
five minutes in this condition. His
body was taken to his late home the
