PRAISE FOR TEACHING ORDER
Catholic Archbishop of Dublin Creates
scholarships for Christian
Brothers, Pupils.

DUBLIN, July 3O.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee)-speaking at the Christian
Brothers school the Catholic archbishop of
Dublin said that he had decided to found
two university scholarships for boys from
the Christian Brothers schools in Dublin.
With reference to the new system OF
scholarships instituted by the Catholic
bishops Dr. Walsh said that as between
Trinity college and the Catholic university
In Dublin 1t was by no means clear that
the balance OF advantage as an educational
institution was not with the latter body.
The archbishop next dwelt at length with
the merits OF the medical school of Trinity
college, and quoted from the reports of the
inspection of the General Medical council In
1901 unfavorable criticisms of the conduct
of certain examination in that school.
To this part of the speech of DR.. Walsh the
provost of Trinity college has replied i'm an
open letter The archbishop pays a tribute
to the excellent teaching given in the
Christian Brothers school and concluded
by saying that it would be superfluous to
warn the boys of those schools against the
offers which are being made by Trinity coll
lege and some of it's wealthy friends
In this connection it is interesting to
State that confirmatory of the truth of the
archbishops tribute to the excellence of the
Christian Brothers. schools is the announce
ment that the first sizarship in experimental
science at Trinity college has been won on
nigh marks by student of the Christian
Brothers schools at Cork
