King, we'll known young acton and vaudeville singer took a dose af carbolic acid at the home of his mother, Mrs Lucy King, of 311 Wa ter street, some time Wednesday night and his body was not discovered until early yesterday morning.
 As was his usual custom King had came home to visit his mother, which was his custom since he has been flll- ing an engagement at MT Rocks cafe in Bridgeport On Wednesday he was about town in fine spirits over the suc- cessful closing of an engagement with the Terry McGovern show with which he was to start on Monday. Early in the evening Wednesday night he re- turned home and sang and played a new piano and seemed in the best of spirits and therefore his family is at a loss to account for his deed.
 King had travelled all over the coun- try, singing on many of the vaudeville circuits, and through the summer in the parks. For a whole summer he was soloist at the big recreation park in Winnipeg, Manitoba. He went from Denver to Baltimore, and on the north to Montreal, but whenever his engagements were where 1t was pos sible it was his custom to come to New Haven each month to spend a few days with his mother. King pos sessed pleasing tenor voice, and made friends wherever he went He often sang here at the Pabst cafe.

MANY WANT LICENSES.
To Take Seed Oysters from Natural
 Beds.

The annual rush of oystermen to the shell fish commissioners for licenses to take seed oysters from the natural beds off Fairfield and Stratford is keeping Clerk Perry busy these days.
 The law regulating the dredging of oysters on the natural beds goes off to-day and from then until July 20 next the oystermen will be free to take the seed stock and sell it to growers who are fiocling to Bridgeport in numbers from Long Island and Jersey.
 Last year over 15O licenses were is- sued by the shellfish commission. Less than a third of that number have so far been issued by Clerk Perry. If the oystermen find the "set" good the commission expects that the number of applications for licenses will run high. Advance reports indicate good "set."

BISHOP HOOKER DEAD.
Native of New York and Head of
 Catholic Diocese of Jaro, P. I.

Native of New York and Head of
 Catholic Diocese of Jaro, P. I.
 Rome, Sept, 19.-News has reached the vatican of the death of Frederick Zadok Rocker, Roman Catholic bishop of Jaro, Iloilo, Philippine Islands, from paralysis of the brain. Bishop Rocker had been in the Philippines four years, and was the first American bishop of the dicese. His death, coming so soon after that of the Apostolic Delegate Guidi, causes apprehension for his successor at the vatican, as the cli- mate is evidently trying for white men.
 Bishop Frederick Zadok Rocker was a native of New York state, and was educated at the public and high schools of Albany and at Union college. His father and uncle, both of whom were connected for several years with the New York Tribune, destined him for l Journalism, but the young man decid- ed to enter the priesthood, and left college for Rome without waiting to l take a degree. He was later made an alumnus of the institution. At Rome | he entered the American college in 1883. Within two years he received the degree of doctor of philosophy, and in 1889 he was made doctor of theol. ogy by the propaganda. He was also chosen viee7rector of the American | college. In 1894, near the dose of the year. he was sent from Rome 10 the | apostolic delegation at Washington, D. C., and the following year he became its secretary. He held this appoint ment until 19O3 when he was made bishop of Jaro. As secretary of the legation he was the only English. speaking member, and his responsible ities on this account alone were un- usual He was made chamberlain to the pope in 1SO1--an honorary position bestowed in recognition of his ser vices. His see in the Philippines was one of the most important on the islands, and some of the most promi- nent educational institutions were con- ducted within his Jurisdiction.

| have never met with a class
of people whose friendship | prize
more highly than the citizens of
the Grove City. There are the
usual exceptions that are to be
found in all places, but taken all
together, it is my experience that
the people here are far above the
average in the essential qualities
that go to make the man.
The petty class distinctions, SO
often found in places of this size,
are extre nelly limited and the
man is taken at his true value.
There is little of the "cod fish aris-
tocracy" prevalent, and the iso
lated cases will undoubtedly soon
reach the stage of convalesence
under proper treatment, which
the public "doctor" is ever pre-
scribing.
The man of good sound sense
knows that he is bat an instrue-
ment III the hands OF his Maker
for the betterment of the race,
while he may look with pitiful
charity upon the unfortunates
who lack that finer quality and
only consider the purse as the
running scale in the valuation of
brains and manhood.
The expression that GA dollar
is mans best friend,' is erron-
eous. 1t may be true with those
who are incapable Of retaining
friendships with their fellowmen,
but true friends are better than
all the money in the world. II
believe | have made friends here
the kind that count. | will al
ways consider them as such and
wish them all the good, honest
prosperity possible.
| regret to leave Mr.. Trego,
and will say that | never worked
Tor better employer; it pains me
20 leave the paper to other hands,
as it seems almost a human friend
% me, and, above all, | grieve to
sever my business and social re-
atoms with all the people of
Blackfo2t, whose kind treatment
and good wishes have helped me
over many a rough place in the
Road of Life.
