John Henry Hopkins, who was for
90 wears bishop of Vermont and for
many years presiding bishop of the
Episcopal church. He was noted
musician, Il piano player, organist,
orchestral leader and trainer of
choruses. He composed the opera
"Taffy and Old Munich" for chill
dren, and wrote many pieces of
church music. He built the Hermit
tagc, at Athena, y. J.. some thirty
years ago, and when not lecturing
or engaged i'll musical work led a
secluded life. He was an eccentric
and impulsive man and devoted to
his art. IN relation to which and to
methods of instruction in music he
held some peculiar views. His
principal public work was the foun-
dation and continuance for ncarl 20
years of the Orpheon training
schools in New York city in which
young girls and boys were trained
free of charge IN the rudiments OF
music. He wrote several hundred
compositions, embracing songs,
piano pieces, organ concc't fugucs,
church music, orchestral and choral
works. His remains We're taken to
Burlington and he was buried Mon
day in the family lot at Rock Point,
bv the side of his wife, who died Il
number of years ago. He left no
family.
LOOK OUT FOR METEOR SHOWERS.
THERE MAY BE ONE TONlGIIT.
1t is within the range of possibili-
that two exceptional pisplays of &C.
lestial fireworks will be witnessed
this month bv those who keep IL
sharp lookout, says the New York
Tribune astronomer. November is
Il famous month for meteor showers,
although the exhibition is not as
brilliant some years as others. In
fact, one of these fiery outbreaks -
that which seems to proceed from
the constellation of Lco-comes only
once in about thirty-three years.
The other has period of about thir-
teen years, but this represents only
the maximum frequency of the me-
teors from Andromcda.
The dates on which observation is
most likely to be repaid with results
are November IL, I.3 and IL. And
the best hours for such vigils are
those between midnight and dawn.
Leo now rises in the northeast ut
about II o'clock. Inasmuch as there
is no moon worth mentioning ut
present, any display of mcteors that
does occur will be more distinct this
year than on some other occasions.
