Domestic VS.. Wild Animals.

In the aggregate the value of all the
wild animals in the world is trifiing
by comparison with the market price
of the horses. cattle, swine. sheep,
goats and other dom .sticated beasts,
not to speak Of the pets like dogs and
cats or Of poultry TIE hens in the
United States are probably worth
more than all the wild animals in the
country would sell for if they could
be caught and nut on the market.

DEPOSED FROM CHURCH.
Bishop Greer Takes Action in Case
of DIR. Tuckerman.

Boston. April Sit was learned tonight that
the Rev. Gustavus Tuckerman. OF this city and
formerly of New York and St. Louis. had been
formally deposed from the priesthood OF tho
Episcopal Church by the Right Rev. Dr. David
H. Greer Bishop Coadjutor Of New York. with
which diocese the Rev. Mr.. Tuckerman has
been canonically connecteH Ny Tuckerman's
relations with the Episcopal Church are severed
because he could longer accept the teach
ing Of that communion regarding the doctrine
OF the Holy Trinity and the virgin BIRTH and
he is now minister Of the Unitarian denom-
ination.
Although sentence of deposition was pro-
nounced last Tuesday IN New York by Bishop
Greer. II IS not generally known In the Ep.scO-
pal Church that Mr.. Tuckerman Is no longer
a member OF IT, In to-morrow's issue OF The
Living Church" an article win appear criticlsing
the apparent failure OF the ecclesiastical authorl
ties in New York and Boston 10 suspend Mr..
Tuckerman from the Episcopal body. soIuO
time ago he left his place as rector OF the Church
OF the Holy Faith. l66th street, New York. and
took up work at the Theodore Parker Memorial
Unitarian Church In Boston The article states
that Mr.. TuckeTman is still carried the clergy
lists Of the Episcopal Church and practically
demands his suspension.
An investigation here tonight disclosed the
fact that last year the clergyman decided 10
abandon his orders in the Church and that six
months ago he so Informed Bishop Greer. Tho
latter suspended Mr.. Tuckerman, but the Bishop,
under the canons, having six months before he
was compelled to take final action did not deposc
the clergyman until this week.
Mr.. Tuckerman in statement giving his rea
sons for this step. said that I'm long considera-
ton IL had been forced on him that he must
make a choice between discpeship for Christ
and a conformity 10 the ecclesiastical ritual and
dogma of the Episcopal Church. He could not
reconcile these. declaring that II simply
question o. choosing Christ Church. and that
he had chosen Christ.
Mr.. Tuckerman is a native Of Boston and
grew up in St. Paul's parish He was graduated
from Harvard in the class OF 80, and has been
close student OF social conditions since that time.
"Mr Tuckerman deposed as a minister OF
the Episcopal Church Mt his own request" said
Bishop Greer last night. There is no way for
man to resign from the Church except by active
deposition by the Bishop and IT was at Mr.. Tuck
erman's solicitation that l pronounced him
deposed last Tuesday. There Is nothing whatever
In his moral character that he criticised. He
simply desired TO leave the Church enter social
settlement work IN Boston. He is a Of high
character and mind. I simply complied with his
