LOST BY FOUR VOTES.

The Tie Vote i'm the Eleventh Ward
 A Democratic Councilman Elected
 Yesterday This Ensures a Demo-
 cratic Presiding Omcer for the
 Council and Other Results.
 The tie in the Eleventh ward between Harvey G. Pond, republican, and Charles F. Smith, democrat, candidates for council man, was dissolved by special election yesterday. MT. Smith was elected by a majority of four. The vote stood Pond $40, Smith 344. There was one double ballot which was counted for Pond. At noon it did not appear that the vote would be 800, but it was largely augmented after o'clock. Smith was elected during the last half hour, for within that time Pond was leading by twenty-five. This election gives the democrats majority of one in the board of councilmen. The demo- crats will now probably have no trouble in electing democratic presiding officer for the council, and in giving the demo- crats 8 majority on all the important com mittees.

DIR. DAMON
Still in the Flood Tide or Success.

Since the close of the free clinics so gen. erously given to the poor by Dr. Daman he has been kept very busy at his offices, 92s Chapel street, consulting and treating con stantly from morining until night. The remarkable efficiency of this system is ex- emplifed by the constantly increasing practice accorded to this eminent special. ist. People are brought to him from all parts of the state, while several are from distant states. One lady went home last week to Camden, N. J., while another re- turns to her home at Montclair to-day. Both of these ladies are highly pleased with the treatment and now declare themselves well.
 The wonderful efficacy of this method oi treatment may be seen every day upon oul own streets, several of whom would not have survived until now, in all probability, had not Dr. Damon cured them. Those wishing to consult the doctor will find him at 928 Chapel street from 10 a. m. to 8 p, m. every day but Saturday and Sunday. If you are sick you should at least get his advice, especially as it costs pothing.

TO-DAY,s TOWN MEETING

A Large Attendance Expected, Hut
 Probably No Attempt to Obtain Free
 Books for Parochial Schools.
 There seems to be almost as much inter est manifest in this afternoons town meet ing at Music hall as was occasioned by the adjourned meeting of week ago. The call for the meeting states that the matter to be considered is the appropriation of $10, 900 for free text books in the public schools. Considering this, those who are familiar with the law in the case say that no other matter than that stated in the call can be brought properly before the meeting. New ertheless, the interest among both Catho- lies and Protestants over the attempt to provide the parochial schools with free books seems never to have been at higher point The Protestant clergymen have not been aggressive in the matter and with the exception of the Rev. Dr. Smyth have not referred to the question in their pulpits. The Catholic clergy, with the exception of Father Bray of St. Johns and Father Null holland of St. Francis church, have pur- sued a conservative policy. These two priests, however, urge their people to go Co eue toWu meeelnS anu to Wolh tol free books for the parochial schools. There may be an attempt to prevent the appropriation of any money for free books if a resolution including parochial schools is declared out of order, as it probably will be by Moderator Isaac Wolfe.
 It is stated by many that Fathers Bray and Mulholland do not voice the senti- ments of the majority of the Catholic voters and taxpayers of the town, and many have expressed decided dislike for ths aggressive attitude taken by the two priests.
 Father Mulholland says all are entitled to free books. St. Francis school does not cost the board of education one cent, nor has the board of education to pay for the salary of the teachers in our school St. Francis school is a public school in every sense of the word, a free public school. Personally he is not in favor of the free book question. ''Look at the High school, where 5000 is ap- propriated for free books, he says. "Peo- pie who send their children to the High school are supposed to be able to supply them with text books at their own expense. would furnish free books only to poor children whose parents cannot afford to buy them. But when it was decided to have free text books I believe that all the schools should share in the appropriation. We have about 750 children of school age, and to start with it would cost only about s1 per capita. It is not so much the de- mand for the books that look at, as the principle involved"
 Rev. Dr. Smyth of Center church says: It is not at all question of religion. If it is voted to give free text books to private schools, it would be just as well to include Trinity parish school and Yale divinity school. If a proposition is made to give books to these schools he will oppose it, as he will oppose aid to any private school. There is no question of religion in it, and he believes majority of the Catholics of New Haven will not favor the proposition if it comes before them.
