expected that there will be at least
six hundred people on the floor of
the Convention.
Forest conditions in the Appalach-
ian Range, and in Kentucky in par
ticular, will be discussed by w. l..
Hall, Assistant to the Chief of the
United States Forestry Service. Mr..

teacher in the House of Mercy, con-
Quoted by the Sisters of st. Mary of
the Protestant Episcopal church, at
214th street and Bolton road, Inwood,
committed suicide to-day by shooting
herself in the temple in her room.
The report of the revolver caused
great excitement among the inmates.
Sitser Gertrude, who is in charge of
the institution, rushed to Miss Hills
room on the floor, clad only in her
night-gown. She found the lifeless
body of Miss Hill. DR.. Cuittner, of
Washington Heights Hospital, said
death had been instantaneous.
Miss Hill had been a teacher in the
place for about two years. Lately she
had been respondent, but for what
reason no one knows. Several days
ago Miss Hill sent her trunks away

cerned, the legal Incorporation of the
society, assumed to disannull a con-
tract made five years before for the
publication of an official paper, that
had tacitly been endorsed by every
annual meeting since then, repudiated
Up-To-Date Farming as the official
paper, and allied themselves with
institutions and surrendered to influ-
ences that are entirely foreign to the
American Society of Equity of North
America
In the midst of such arbitrary, rev.
dictionary, and high-handed proceed
ings, what could the sincere and loyal
members of the society do? They did
the only thing that was open to them
to save the society; they retired from
the convention that had so plainly
betrayed the society, and, exercising
a power we believed was vested in us
by our constituents, organized the
annual meeting of the American So
ciety of Equity of North America, and
transacted the business.
OFFICERS ELECTED.
1t was resolved that the convention
proceed to the election of officers for
the ensuing year, and the following
officers and directors were duly elect
ed:
President-W. H. Mitchell, Hutch

Bezeman, Mont. C. w. Peckham,

sey, Mich.
On motion, duly seconded and
passed, it was resolved that a state
ment of the facts on which our ac-
ton is based be published and sent
to members of the society.
RESOLUTION.
Offered by G.. w. Peckham, sec
onded by w. a. Harding:
Whereas Some complications have
arisen at the national headquarters,
that may require other than usual
proceedings, be it
"Resoved, That this convention en-
powers and authorizes the Vice Pres
ident to act as may be necessary to
protect the property and interests and
welfare of the society"
This resolution was unanimously
adopted. There being no further
business brought before the conven-
ton, the meeting adjourned.

The action we have taken is a pre-
cautionary one, to save the society
from mischievous counsels, wrong
pLrposes and evil influences. Should
those continue to dominate the or
ganization, we stand ready to act,
and to act promptly.
We appeal to our constituents, and
to the membership everywhere, did
we do right, and will you sustain us?
With heartfelt devotion to the
cause of equity, and to the society
that has taught to the world and
compelled equitable prices for farm
