Considerable busi- ness was transacted. In regard to the proposed change in the beneficiary department it was resolved to make monthly assessments instead of at death as previously. Tho present scale of the assessments will remain in furca, and the monthly rate will be calculated upon the basis of the number of death calls for last year, which was sixteen. The most important modification made was in the qualification of membership. Hitherto a member must have been English -born or the son of an English father, but this restriction has been now modified to allow the admission of the sons of English. women as well, so that in future any candidate who has 1 either parent English -born will be eligible.
