HUBBARD MEMORIAL Friends of Dead Scientist Pay Tribute to His Virtues. MEETING AT CONGREGATIONAL President McKinley and Ambassa- dor White Send Messages. THE ADDRESSES DELIVERED ‘The members of the National Geographic Society, together with scores of other friends and admirers of the late Gardiner Greene Hubbard, the president of the so- ciety for mora, than ten years, assem- bled last evening in Congregational Church to do honor to his memory. The memorial meeting was of double interest for the reason that it had been planned by Dr. Hubbard prior to his death to commemo- rate at that time the tenth anniversary of the society. A number of representa- tive men, who hold leading positions in various walks of life, addressed the meet- ing. Prof. Alexander Graham Bell, the son- in-law of Dr. Hubbard and his successor as president of the society, presided at the meeting. In his opening remarks Prof. Bell stated that « familiar face was miss- ing and its place could not be filled. Dr. Hubbard himself arranged for the meet- ing, chose the place and the date as a memorial service to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the society, Prof. Bell went on to say. He then extended a welcome to all present and remarked that many letters or regret had been received from persons who were unable to be pres- ent at the meeting. One was from :he Executive Mansion, the President saying he would have been very glad to join with Dr. Hubbard's friends in paying tribute to his memory, had he been able to at- tend. A cablegram from Andrew D. White, United States ambassador to Germany, was read. Ambassador White cabled that he united in the very affectionate tribute to a faithful friend, patriotic citizen, de- voted public servant and a true man. His Last Thoughts. Dr. Hubbard, stated the presiding officer, use to refer to the meeting-in progress as a jubilee meeting, and his last thoughts were of the National Geographic Society. Dr. Hubbard was a man‘of large views, cencluded Prof. Bell, a man who could see the relation of great events to one an- other. Surgeon General Sternberg, acting presi- dent of the joint commission of scientific societies of Washington, was then called upon to speak in behalf of the scientific societies. Dr. Hubbard was president of the joint commission, said’ General Sternberg, and if it shall ever become a national academy of sciences he will, although departed, occupy a prominent place therein. Dr Hubbard quickly recognized merit and honesi endeavor, continued General Stern- berg. He never negelected any duties, possessing a happy method of dispatching business and checking dilatory proceedings. In concluding his remarks, General Stern- berg expressed a personal sense of loss in the death of Dr. Hubbard. The deceased sa regent of the Smith- sonian Institution, and the presiding offi- cer introduced, jointly, Dr. G. W. Langley, secretary of the institution, and ex-Post- master General William L. Wilson, now president of Washington and Lee Uni- versity, to speak of Dr. Hubbard in that connection. “I knew Dr. Hubbard many years,” said Secretary Langley, “and it might seem that as secretary of the Smithsonian Institu- tion I should give an account of his con- nection with the institution. But there is another who can do it better than 1. I wiil give way to Mr. Wilson, who knew him so well.” Mr. Wilson’s Tribute. Mr. Wilson stated that his first strong impulse was to speak of Dr. Hubbard as aman. He added that the good works in which the deceased was an active partici- pant were not external to him, but were part of his whole nature. Now .that he has left us ferever, the speaker went on to say, we begin to realize what part he occupied in the social, charitable and in- tellectual Ife of this city. Washington is destined more and more to become the home of men who have gained renown in al sections of the country, according to Mr. Wilson, and among such it was in- evitable that Dr. Hubbard should become a leader. “What can I say of him as a regent of the Smithsonian Institution that would not be true of him in every field?” contin- ued Mr. Wilson. “So many sided was his character, so many sided was the activity in his life, that tributes should come from many friends, but all of them must speak of him as a man. In al} his relations of husband, father, grandfather and frien he was courteous, affectionate and gentl Miss Caroline A. Yale, vice president of the American association to promote the peed of speech to the deaf, told at length of Mr. Hubbard’s work in the di- rection taken"by the societies, and gave a history of the work he inaugurated.

Ross spoke in behalf of the city of Washington and the District of Columbia. “Dr. Hubbard was one of the most in- fluential champions of this city at the meeting held here last spring with the committee of the National Educational As- sociation,” said Commissioner Ross. “He was repeatedly appointed by different Loards of Commissioners, and performed the duties assigned him with fidelity and abil ity. The people of this municipality have suffered a grievous loss in his death, and the name Hubbard should and probably will adorn some municipal building.” The concluding remarks were made by Gen. A. W. Greely, chief signal officer of the army and the senior vice president of the Geographic Society. He spoke for the society. “The Geographic Society has a right to feel itself especially bereft by the death of Dr. Hubbard,” he sald. “He was not only the president for ten years, but was an incorporator. Under his direction the membership increased from thirty-three in the year 1887 to 1,372 at the time of his death. Although its loss is great, the so- ciety will advance and thereby show its appreciation of Gardiner G. Hubbard.” Those Present.
