N'oUAID REPRIRANDED.
Rochester Bishop Rehuked for His Attack
on Archbishop Ireland

on Archbishop ireland.
Last weeks Freeman's Journal, of New
York, gave out editorially that Bishop Nc
Quaid, OF 10 chester, had been reprimanded
by Leo XIII for the attack made from the
pulpit Of his cathedral on Archbishop ireland
and that notice OF the reprimand had been
conveyed by the Pope's order through Car
dinal Iedochowski to Archbishop Corrigan,
who is Bishop McQuaid's metropolitan.
Inquiry made from men who have correct
information Of this case from Rome confirms
the news given out by the Freeman's journal.
Bishop MeQuaId has received severe repri-
mand. and Is expected to make due apology
for his grave breach of ecclesiasticai disci-
pline.
The right of Archbishop Ireland TO speak
and act as he did in New York just before the
late election is practically acknowledged.

AS THE CROWDS CONE OUT.

1.-THE Butterflies" the eminently descrip-
tive title Of the play now on at the New Ma
tional Theater, IS one Of the most engaging
plays seen here this season. The humor OF
it is just as delicate as it is instantaneous in
its impression. 1t is an exquisite comedy
without SATIRE and the action runs along Just
as smoothly as a tale that is told.
The reputation of Mr.. John Drew was, OF
course. sufficient TO draw big house, and it
was there as usual. All Of the boxes were
taken and very many people were content to
stand during the performance.
As 1.-The Butterflies are few in number
there is an opportunity for good player in
every role. and that is another pleasing cir
cumstance OF the presentation. This is only
another way of saying that without exception
the players performed meritoriously.
The other players in the company are Lewis
Baker, Harry Harwood. Arthur Byron, Leslie
Aliens Frank Z. Lamb, Mrs. Annie Adams.
Anna Belmont, Virginia Buchanan, and Maud
Adams. All were good in their part.

abundant. The lengthy and superior pro-

lodged in the foot that he pulled
Ross to the ground. Ross had on
a pair Of heavy shoes at the time.

MORE ROOM FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN

SOME NEW SCHOOLS PROVIDED IN BROOKLYN,
80 But NOT ENOUGH YET.
The schools of Brooklyn will reopen on Tuesday.
There Will be considerable additions to the ca
pacity Of the school buildings through the erection
of schoohouses and additions to existing ones,
but by no means enough to accommodate all the
children who ought to attend school. The provision
of schoolhouses in the part OF the city has
not kept pace with the growth of population, while
at the time there are vacant places in the
downtown schools sufficient to provide for all chill
dren of school age If they were so distributed
through the city to make use of all the avail
able
The number Of sittngs provided in 1894 was
much smaller than in any one of the previous five
years, owing the unwise policy pursued by the
Democratic municipal administration. Something
has since been done TO make good the neglect that
of the finest schoohouses in the city is being built
