SYNOD, ‘Tho Opening Session at the Chureh of the Covenant Last Evening. The Presbyterian synod of Baltimore met in annual session last night at the Church of the Covenant, on Connecticut avenue, and listened to au interesting and instructive sermon on the subject of “The Energy of God in Nature” by the retiring moderator, Rev. A. N. Keigwin of Wilmington, Del. The church was well filled with beth the delegates to the synod and local Presbyterians attracted to the services by the fame of the speaker. The meeting was openod with » brief servico and then Dr. Keigwin spoke for some time on his suggestive topic. The germ of eternity, he asserted, was to be found everywhere, showing that a final order had ex- d from the beginning, destined by the Sa- reme Por Present nature, therefore, is ‘gely but # type of the last forms. The ehureh should draw from this axiom of naturo the lesson that the new is but the deduction from the decay of the old, this being largely the underlying thought of the Scriptures. th is the sole way shown to salvation by this rule of divine grace, but the word should be taken out of its ordinary mean- ing and unde J urifying. refining fire that required » cruefi there could be » resurrection. It is provi- dential that death should be the means of re- jatural catuclys: changes that are go! slow, though sure, and this symbolizes the change in the church itself within the last two centuries. ‘This was indicative of the dawnin of afew heaven and earth under a quickene: woral perception, which, as it becomes purified and retined, rees the divinity of the cunserva- them of nature. When Dr. Keigwin had concluded the synod proceeded to the business of the 7 meetizg and the roll of delegates was calle It was found that there were a good many ab- sentees, and but £4 pastors out of 130 responded. There are 132 churches in the synod, which in- cludes the presbyteries of Washington, Balti- more ard Newcastle. The synod then proceeded to elect a successor to the retiring morlerator, and the choice fell upon Rex. Joseph T. Kelly of this city, pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church, on 9th reet. He immediately assumed the gavel and will preside over the succeeding sessions of the synod during the meeting. In accepting the office last night he made a few remarks welcoming the delegates to the city. Kev. Dr. Carter, also of this citr, was re-elected to the office of stated clerk and treasurer for a term of three years, and the Revs. W. Branch of the Baltimore presbytery and F. H. Moore of New- castle were chosen temporary clerks. Rev. Dr. Teunis 8. Hamlin, pastor of the Church of the Covenant, took the platform for a few minutes before the adjournment and gave brief statement of the program of arrange- ments for the meeting. ———_ NEWS FROM ROCKVILLE. j Registration Officers Mee: to Hear Appeals— New Public Roads Asked For—Notes. Correspondence of The Evenins Star. Rockvitie, Oct. 20, 1891. Mr. John T. De Sellum, on» of the best- known citizens of the county, died today at 12 m. at his home near Gaithersburg in the eighty-second year of his age. Mr. De Scllum was born, raised ani lived in the mmediate neighborhood wher: he died and was for many years oue of the most successfu! farmers in this section of the state. For many years he was a regular correspondent of the Agricultural De- partment and at the timo of his death wasa contributor to the Maryland branch of the agricultural and weather bureau. Prior to the late war he was a large slave holder, but during that conflict he was an uncompromising Union man and since that time wasa prominentmem- ber of the republican party, being several times placed on the ticket of that party for im- portant offices. His funeral will take place to- morrow at 10..m. at the Episcopal Church in Gaithersburg. A well-attended democratic meeting was held Darnestown on Saturday evening, which was addressed by Hon. Philip D. Laird, candidate for the house of delegates, and Edward C. Peter, candidate for state's attorney. The officers of registration for the several election districts of the county held their final meeting today for the purpove of hearing ap- peals from any persons who were stricken off the lists at previous sittings. In this district no applications were made. Much complaint is heard in the county at present at the large number of petitions that are presented at each meeting of the commis- sioners for new public r. The appoint ment of examiners on each of the roads, whether finally granted or not. entails cousid- le expense on the county, and if the rush petitions continues it is thought it will have tendency to largely increase the taxes for next year. e SAM wo ES Origin of the Name “Return Jonathan.” To the Editor of The Evening Star: In your obituary notice this evening of the venerable and venerated Return Jonathan Meigs you repeat an ancient legendas to the origin of his name, which is incorrect, though several “cyclopedias of biography” have fallen into the rame error. ‘The grandfather of the late lamented clerk of the Supreme Court of the District was, as you should say correctly, Return Jonathan Meigs, the original besrer of the name. He was a col- onel in the continental army and a very cele- brated revolutionary officer, having been one of the four colonels who led the desperately forlorn hope at the storming of Stony Point, performing many other notable and gallant actions during the revolt of the colo- nies. Col. R. J. Meigs was the fourth son and the fifth child, not of “Jonathan Meigs,” but of Return Meigs of Middletown, Conn., by Eliza- beth Hamlin, to whom Return was married July 1, 1733 (Q 8.) Col. Meigs was born December 17, 1740; none of the family were Quakers—they were patriots. The real origin of this peculiar name is us follows: : Janna Meigs of East Guilford, Conn., the father of Return Meigs and grandfather of Col. Return J. Meigs courted Willard of Wethersfield. Hannah was nota Quakerese, but a Puritan dameel, the daughter of Josiah and Hannah (Hosmer) Willard iad granddaughter of Maj. Simon Willard, the most famous Indian fighter of his day in the colony of Massachusetts Bay. ‘Hannah refused Janae Meige’ suit. but as mounted his horse and turned to ride away she ted her refusal and called after him, “Re- turn Jonna! retar FE Janna did return, They were married May 18, 1698 (O. 8.), an ten ee. of whom ‘Return,” the father of rn Jonathan” was the fifth child (not the eldest son as your legend has it). ‘This is the true story as given in the family records. It may now with propriety be asked how Iknow all this. My reply is that my mother's Epndintber was Josiah Meigs, a professor in ‘ale College and younger brother of Col. Re- turn Jonathan Meigs, the first owner of the peculiar name, and that [have acopy of the genealogy of my mother’s (! family com- led from the New Engiand records by the late - Alvan Taleott of Guilford, Conn., wher given generations of the Meigs buried.

Craig, who fearlessly rushed into the «1 compartment, followed by Cornelius Moran, master-at-arms; John Kronberg, ship's cook, What is Shown in Health Officer Hammett’s E ‘Weekly Report. “The death rate during last week was 23.29 against the last annual death rate of 22.88,” says the report of Health Officer Hammett. “More than the average number of persons over sixty years of age deceased, while the deaths among children under five years of age were below the mean rate, being only 32 per cent as compared with 96a the normal num- ber. “The sudden turn from the warmth of Sep- tember to the muth colder weather of the Inst two weeks has evidently been the cause of an incroase of acute lung diseases, the report of this weck showing eleven deaths therefrom, while during the week previous thero was but ore fatal case from this class of complaints. Diphtheria still 1 prevails in extreme wost- erly portion of the District and on the high lands around Tenleytown, with an occasional sporadic caso in the city.

Twenty-three of the deaths cccurred in hospitals and public institutions. The deaths by classes were as follows: Zymotic, 38; constitutional, 21; local, 44; developmental, 10; violence, 1. The principal causes of death were: Croup, 1; diphtheria, 9; consumption, | such lawless malarial 15; diarrheal, 4; typhoid fover, fever, pneumonia, 7; congestion of the Inugs, 8: Bronchitis, '1; whooping cough, kidney diseases, 2; meningitis, 3; cancer, 2.
