Sectarian school Que lioD.
NEW YORK, Oct. GA New
Britain, Conn.,, special says: The
School Board some time since al
lowed the Catholics to conduct the
town school, and apportioned
school moneys to them on pledge
of the teaching being non-sectari-
an. The pledge was violated and
the Protestant children were with
drawn, and the school became dis
tinctively Catholic. The priest,
Father Carmody, now seeks to
have newly-erected con-
vent placed on the same footing
and actually obtained concessions
from the School Board. Great in
dignation followed. Asan election
for members of the Board takes
place next Monday, there promises
| to be o sharp and exciting contest.
The town is largely Roman Catho-
| lie. Public meetings of the Pro-
| testants have been held, and the
dispatch states that there has never
been such excitement over any
local question.
