ANNUAL CONVOCAT|Oh
 EPISCOPAL DIOCESE
Busy Days for Congregation of Trinity
 Pro Cathedral.

Beginning at the annual meeting
 of Trinity pro cathedral congregation
 held Tuesday night, this week and
 next week will be a period of more
 than usual interest for the local Epis-
 copal church and those within its circle of influence
 At the annual meeting the vestry
 of the Trinity congregation for the coming year was elected as follows: Charles 4. Van der Neer, senior war
 den; N A. MOrford, junior warden, and F. J. Bennitt, Judge Edward Kent,
 Dr. Ancil Martin, Howard $. Reed, Chapin Hall, Elliott Evans and J. F.
 Cleaveland. The yestry will meet at an cary day for organization.
 Reports from the various church organizations were received and all were found to be in a flourishing and satisfactory condition When Rev. J. w. Atwood was elevated to the bish- opric, being then pastor of Trinity church, the congregation offered the church as a pro-cathedral or bishops church, and the vestry authorized him to nominate a vice-rector to assist in the affairs of the local parish. This was not done at the time for the reason that Rev. Arthur w. Moulton fortunately arrived at this juncture to spend the winter in Phoenix, so the church authorities asked him to take charge for the season, thus giv- ing the bishop time to look around for desirable person for permanent appointment to the position of vice rector This matter the bishop still has under consideration.
 The congregation at it's annual meet ing also elected the three delegates to which it is entitled in addition to the senior and junior wardens, who are eX-officiO delegates, to the an nual cOnvocation of the diocese which will be held in Trinity pro- cathedral Wednesday and Thursday of next week.
