range the details relating to the award
of the scholarships. Then the trouble be-
gan. The population of Londonderry Is
made up of 1900 Protestants of various
denominations and 5000 Roman Catholics
In some way the committee was constituted
without any Roman Catholic being in
cluded This was the first grievance The
second was that the woman's committee
made the scholarships tenable only at
Trinity college, Dublin, circumstance
which excludes Catholic girls as completely
as If the Irish society had made catholics
not eligible" a condition of it's grant Fuel
was added to the fire when the committee
proceeded to exclude marks given for pro-
fciency in the Irish language from the total
of marks qualifying for the scholarships
and vigorous local agitation has sprung
up in consequence.
The opponents of the committees deoi-
sion argue that as the Irish society Sc
lected the program of the intermediate
board as the test which was to govern the
winning of the scholarships the whole of
that program should be included and not
portion chosen by a committee represent
ing only section of the community. The
| question involved is at best a somewhat
serious one for those girls who take up a
study of their native language, because the
| intermediate board allots the same num-
| Der of marks for Irish that II does for
| French or German. A girl. therefore, who
| takes Irish as one of her subjects may be
| shorn of a large proportion of her qualify
| ing marks and thus be hopelessly left be-
| hind in the scholarship competition. The
/ Irish society was appealed to at its recent
visitation" of the Irish estates, but 1t de-
| clined to interfere with the discretion OF
| the local committee. The Roman Catho-
lies of Londonderry. together with a sec
| ton of the Protestants of Londonderry
who take an interest in the study of Irish
now propose to appeal from the decision
Of the Irish society to the full court OF
the common council. with a request thai
for Irish girls the Irish language should be
held with equal value with French or Ger.

the chairman of the board and he opened
the first meeting with prayer as became
his clerical calling and closed in the same
way. The Roman Catholic members alb
scented themselves from this ceremony, so
the board passed three-honed resolution

it poured in in such quantity that the
water was unfit for use. Stock re-

A large amount Of water was drawn

Col. Cloud was out Sunday and M
spected the we'll and oil was still flow
