Distribution Of Prizes.
At the conclusion of the distribution , Bro . J . II . MATTHEWS , P . G . Std . Br „ Patron of the Institution , and Chairman of the House Committee for the week , in proposing a vote of thanks to the Rev . C . J . Martyn for distributing the prizes , said he was sure all present felt sympathy with Lady Henniker and her family in . their sad bereavement . He hoped they had
been satisfied with what they had seen that day . He had placed m their hands the results of the Cambridge Local Examination and the College of Preceptors' Examination . The girls were examined by independent gentlemen appointed by the Council of the several bodies . It was a severe test for the girls to go through . It was a noteworthy fact that the whole of the staff of the School had been educated in the School .
Bro . the Rev . C . J . MARTYN , in returning thanks , said he proposed in a very few words to respond for the kind way they had been good enough to thank him for the small part he had taken in the proceedings . He , for one , had been delighted with what he had seen . He had been for many years a subscriber to the School and had watched the proceedings with
deep interest . He thought it was , perhaps , because he came there seldom , he so heartily appreciated what he saw . Referring to the festival on the following evening , he said of course they could not expect to get such a list when compared with the former year , yet at the same time they might hope and trust that all true friends of that splendid Institution would not let it diminish , but that it would increase as years went on .
The children then went in to tea and the visitors were regaled in the spacious marquee . At seven o ' clock the girls went through calisthenics and marching to music , to the evident interest of all who watched them . At a little after nine " God save" the Queen " was sung , and the visitors departed , well pleased with the great care shown to the education and personal comforts of the inmates of the Institution .

ROYAL MASONIC BENEVOLENT INSTITUTION .
The Annual meeting of the Subscribers to this Institution was held on the 17 th inst ., at the Freemasons' Hall . Bro . Capt . S . G . Homfray , Dep . Prov . G . M . for Monmouth , was voted to the chair . The Report of the Auditors was read by Brc TERRY . The Report was ordered to be received and entered on the minutes . The following Report of the Committee of Management was also read by Bro . TERRY : —
The Committee of Management has much pleasure in submitting a Report of | its proceedings during the past year to the Governors and Subscribers of the Institution . The Annual Festival was held by direction of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales , K . G . & c , Grand Patron and President , on Wednesday , the 27 th February last , the Right Honourable the Earl of Euston , R . W . Provincial Grand Master of Northhamptonshire and Huntingdonshire , being in the chair . The Board of Stewards which assisted his lordship consisted of 361 brethren , who voluntarily gave their services on
the occasion , and had the satisfaction of raising amongst them the very considerable total of £ i 3 , 5 oS 4 S . _ 6 d . This , though less by between £ 1700 and £ iSoo than was obtained at the Festival of 18 SS , and probably also far less than many may have been led to expect from so numerous a Board of Stewards , must , nevertheless , it is hoped , be regarded as a satisfactory result , considering how heavy had been the demands made
upon the Craft during the previous year ; and , therefore , the Committee is most anxious to record still more prominently than it has yet had the opportunity of doing its heartfelt thanks to the noble Chairman , who presided with so much zeal and ability , the Stewards who exerted themselves so energetically , and , with what , under the unfavourable conditions just mentioned , must be declared to be such conspicious success , and the brethren and others who contributed with their accustomed generosity .
'I he Committee has likewise to express its thanks to United Grand Lodge for the payment of the sum of £ 2000 which was voted in 1 SS 7 in commemoration of the Jubilee Anniversary of the Queen ' s accession to the throne , but which had not been paid , in consequence ot the absence from England of the M . W . the Eirl of Carnarvon , Pro Grand Master , and one of the Trustees of Grand Lodge . It also expresses its gratitude to the same body for the renewal of its annual contribution of £ 70 towards providing the inmates of the Asylum at Croydon with coal during the winter months .
At the election , in May , 1 S 8 S , there were upon the Funds of the Institution 409 annuitants—namely , 1 S 0 men and 229 widows—and to-day there are 140 approved candidates , of whom 61 are men and 80 widows—the numbers as stated in the voting papers having been reduced by the death since their issue of one maleand two female candidates . This is a more formidable number than has ever been known before during the existence of the Institution , and the Committee isgreatly afraid that , as matters stand at present , there is every likelihood of its being increased rather than diminished in future years .
But the very frequent additions to the number of Annuities on the two Funds that have been made during the last few years have so largely increased the permanent expenditure , while the failing off in the Festival receipts since 1 SS 7 has been so considerable , that with every desire to afford as much relief as possible to the distressed candidates , the Committee considers it would involve too serious an increase of responsibility , and one for which no adequate justification could be offered , if it recommended any augmentation of the numbers at present on the Male and Widows' Fund . There will consequently be no
additions made to the number of vacancies as declared in February , namely , 17 men ( 14 immediate and three deferred ) and 10 women ( seven immediate and three deferred ) , so far as the creation of any fresh annuities is concerned ; but , during the period that has elapsed since then , there have died three men and three widows , so that the number to be elected to-day will be 20 men and 13 widows . There will consequently be , as there
was after the election of iSSS , 409 annuitants provided for by the Institution , namely , 1 S 0 men , each receiving £ 40 per annum , and 229 widows , each receiving £ 32 per annum , the total sum distributable amongst these old people being £ 14 , 526 . To this must be added a further sum of £ 400 , divisible under Law 9 of the Male Fund among 20 widows of recently deceased male annuitants , so that the expenditure in respect of annuities will be £ 14 , 926 .
The Committee is desirous of expressing thus publicly its most cordial thanks to the Honorary Surgeons of the Institution—Henry J . Strong , Esq ., M . D ., and R . Percy Middlemist , Esq . —for their kind and unremitting attention to those of the annuitants , both resident and non-resident , who have been unfortunately compelled to seek their advice and assistance . The Committee has much pleasure in announcing that it has purchased the narrow strip of land between the Asylum grounds and the adjoining railway , over which Mrs . Morland , owner of the field rented by the Institution , had retained the right of waythis rendered
was imperative , as the field since her death has been sold for building purposes , and the use of the right of way for the cartage of materials , & c , would have been most objectionable . The Committee has caused the necessary fences for the protection of the property thus newly acquired to be erected . The arrangements for the purchase were entrusted to Bro . Raynham W . Stewart , who has carried them out satisfactorily . It has also the satisfaction of being able to state that the building at Croydon is in a satisfactory state of repair , and will only need that cleansing and other attention which is necessary to preserve it in that condition .
The audited Statement of Account for the year ended the 31 st March , 1 SS 9 , is appended . It has been prepared with the utmost care , and has undergone a rigorous examination by the Audit Committee before being finally approved and passed , and the Committee is confident that the Governors and Subscribers on inspecting it will find it is no idle boast on its part when it asserts that the funds of the Institution have been administered with the most scrupulous care and a due regard to economy .
In conclusion , the Committee desires to express its most earnest hope that the general body of English Freemasons will be even more ready in the future than they have been in the past in supporting this valuable Institution , and more particularly as
Royal Masonic Benevolent Institution.
regards the present , that they will take note of the increase this year in the number of candidates , and the natural tendency which all such increases exhibit towards further and still more considerable augmentation . It is greatly to be regretted that nothing can be done or recommended by the Com mittee which is likely to assist this increase , for the time being at all events ; but th ? Committee is not without hope that the Craft , when it realises still more fully the diffi culties of the situation , will make a more than usually vigorous effort to reduce the lists of candidates to more manageable proportions .
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN , which was duly seconded , this Report was ordered to be received , adopted , and entered on the minutes . The following brethren were elected on the Committee of Management Bros . Bennett , C . H . Driver , Alex . Forsyth , Jabez Hogg , Louis Stean Raynham W . Stewart , E . West , C . L . Astley , and W . H . Makin . Bro ] J . S . Cumberland was also elected to fill the place of Bro . W . Hilton ' whose death was announced only that morning . ' Bro . W . CLARKE , Past Grand P ., moved the re-election of Bro . John A . Farnfield as Treasurer of the Institution . Bro . J AMES BRETT , P . G . P ., Senior Vice-President Board of Benevolence , seconded . The motion was carried unanimously . Bros . A . H . Tattershall , J . J . Berry , and Charles Kempton were elected as Auditors , Bro . Charles Kempton filling the place of Bro .
