DRAFTED.

Alumni Banquet Tonight On
Site of the Old School,

NEW YORK, May 27.-Trinity
school, an offspring of famous Trinity
church, is 200 years old today and the
anniversary is being fittingly cele-
brated. Today's program was carried
William t. Manning preaching the
sermon. Many distinguished men,
alumni of the school, were present.
A reception will be held in the
school this afternoon from four to six
o'clock At night the alumni will give
a dinner at the Hotel Astor, which
was chosen because it occupies a for
mer site of the school, The speakers
will be Bishop David H. Greer, DR..
Manning, DR.. Nicholas Murray But
Ter, president of Columbia university;
Mr.. Edgerton l.. Winthrop, president
of the board of education, and the
Rev Dr. William II. Vibbert.
Tomorrow will be given up to a
field day at Columbia oval, Bronx. III

baseball game.
Among the prominent men who
were educated in this school are the
Rev William Montague Geer, vicar OF
st. PauPs chapel; Bishop William ID.
Walker, of Western New York ;E. H.
Hartman and oliver Hartman. Per-
haps the oldest living former pupil is
Richard Barlow, of Chicago, who is
past eighty. He attended the school
rs years ago, when it was i'm Varick
street, near Canal street, and very
near-St. Johns chapel.
The Rev. Joseph Hooper of Dur
ham, Conn, is writing a history Of
Trinity school, but because he has
been i'll for several months this will
not be completed until after the cele-
bration.
One of the rules of the trustees is
that the head of the school must al
ways be an Episcopal clergyman. The
present rector is the Rev DIR. Lawrence
T. Cole. He came in the fall of 1903
from St Stephens college, AMMAN
dale. where he was warden. He is a
graduate of the University Of Michi-
gan and the general theological semi
nary.
Trinity school was started in the
tower room of the original Trinity
church ~ years after the parish was
founded. Kings college, now Column
bia university, held it's first sessions
in Trinity school. The latter was
begun under the auspices of the Ven
cradle Society for the Propagation OF
the Gospel in Foreign Parts, with us

revolutionary war this organization
ceased to be interested in the new
school.
The school was maintained in con-
