’I he teachers of the Over River
School tendered the members of the
Town Teachers Association a recep-
tion at the Central Club, last eyening,
which proved beyond the least doubt
that the popular teachers of the Over
River district are admirable entertain-
ers. The inclemency of the weather
prevented the full attendance of the
members of the association, but those
who ventured out were amply repaid,
and all expressed themselves to that ef-
fect. The guests were recelvd by Prin-
cipal H. B. Wigham. Mrs. F. J. (lamp,a
Miss Theresa Cavanagh and Miss
Grace Adams.

There was a short program, the first
number help a vocal solo entitled
"Ships That ever Come in," by Ches-
ter H. Benedict, who was in his usual
fine voice. This was followed by Mrs.
H. H. Barroll, wife of Commander Bar-
roll, I}. S. N., giving a graphic and very
interesting account of her Impression
of South America, and especially the
Argentine Republic. Mrs. Barroll
dwelt at length upon the public schools
in the latter country. and gave a his-
tory of their founding by Former Pres-
ldent Sarmiento, of Argentine who
died about five years ago, but whose de-
cease did not occur until he had estab-
lished a magnificent prrbllc school sys
tem. Sarmlento came to the United
States shortly after the assassination of
President Lincoln, and studied Ameri-
can methods of public schooling. The
result was that American teachers
were secured, and at the present time
there are more than three hundred
Yankee teachers distributed in nearly
every city, town and hamlet In that
South American republic.

At the conclusion of Mrs. Barroll‘s
address Miss Florence Baldwin render-
ed a delightful piano solo. As another
diversion Miss Edna Wilson road a

series of quotations taken from the"1

works of a number of well-known au-
thors. Cards and pencils were passed
around among the guests and the
names of the authors guessed as the
quotations were read. This proved a
very enjoyable feature of the evening.

meeting held In Judge John H. Light's
ofiice, in Washington street, signed by
fifty- seven residents of Rowayton. ask-
ing that Principal John W. McClellan
be rcmoved from the school. There
was very little discussion on the mat-
ter, either pro or con. The Visitors
simply received the petition, and refer-
red It to the committceman in Roway-
ton. The matter will probably be con—
sidered later. Following is the peti-
tion:

Town of Norwalk:

Gentlemen: We. the subscribers.
residents of the South Five Mile River
School District. respectfully request
you to revoke the certificate of John W.
McClellan, the principal of the school
in said district. We believe the inter
ests of the school demand this. Tire
school Is not properly managed. and
never will be so long as he remains In
It. We believe that if be Is not directly
responsible for the present unfortunate
situation he could have prevented It,
and we demand iris removal.

The petition and the situation in the
South Five Mile River District were
discussed by the Board. and the follow
ing resolution was passed:

Horton and fifty-six others, requesting
the Board, for certain reasons alleged
therein to revoke the certificate of
John W. McClellan be and the same
hereby is referred to one District Com-
mittee of the South Five Mile River
District for investigation and action;

nResolved further, That in the opin-
ion of the Board the said District Com—
mittee has ample power under the law
to remove Mr. McClellan, If he finds
the facts alleged in the petition to be
true.

The m er of graduating pupils in
the sprin from the different depart-
ments of the High School was discuss-
ed, and Mr. Wheeler offered the fol-
lowing resolution which was unani-
mously adopted:

Resolved. That each department of
the High School may graduate a class
in the spring agreeably to the standard
of such department and that certifi
cates showing the department from
which each pupil has been graduated
be issued by the Board signed by its
president, secretary, and the principal
of each department; but said classes
shall be brought together and graduat-
ed at one time and place. and be known
as the class of 1902 of the Norwalk
High School: and

Resolved farmer, That no essays be
read by the graduates and no flowers
or other passents be presented at the
time and place of graduation: and

Resolved further, That the whole
matter of graduating the class' of 1902
of the High School including obtaining
a suitable place for the exercises, and

asultable speaker or speakers to ad-
dress the class, he left with the acting
visitors with power.

Illd Ciroulnr III Protest

Councils of one Knights of Columbus
In this state have decided to take
measures at the convention of thr
state councils to be held next
month for the repeal of the new plan
of assessment adopted at the national
contention.» Undermine plan the first
assessment will bmfiue‘ on Februaryrl.
The new rates are declared to be un-
just and besides the councils of this
state, those In the state of Rhode Is-
land are opposed to the new assess-
nent.

Members of the local councils receiv-
ed the following circular, sent out by
Parrgassctt Council No. 28, of Derby
protesting against the unjust and un-
called for rates. The circular says:

" 'Wc. firmly believe that the action of
the national council was arbitrary and
without proper foundation. We con-
sider that the plan of assessment
should have been submitted to the var-
Ious councils of the order and they
should have time to consider It after-
wards. It should have been brought
up In the state convention of the order,
so that the representatives of the coun-
cils might pass upon It and express the
wishes of their various councils, and
the national council should abide by
their decision.

"The order at large should be con-
srrlted upon a matter of such vast im-
portance as the plan of insurance has
proven to be. The national council is
the servant. of the order and not its
dictator. and its action In passing such
a measure without submitting it to the
approval .or disapproval of the entire
order was arbitrary and unjust. The
present rates as adopted are excessive
a d unwarranted. and are higher than
t or fraternal orders which are not on
such a sound financial basis as the
Knights of Columbus. We do not con-
sider that the time has arrived for a
change in the insurance rates of the
order, brrt If there Is to be a change It
should be upon a far different basis.
With a reserve fund such as the
Knights of Columbus has today, which
was created by the contributions of the
members and adopted several years
ago. and which has been steadily in—
creasing until It has reached a very
enormous sum. it would seem that it Is
unnecessary to make such a radical
change In our system of rates of assess-
ment.

“We earnestly protest against the
gross injusuce done to the older mem-
bers of the order. who have been in
strumental in building it up and plac-
I or it upon such a firm and successful

In. The rates as placed aghinst the
Members from the anal of 45 to 60 are
outrageous and demerits the condemna-
tion of all the members of the order.

"We meet earnestly ask for the co-
0 ration of all the councils of the or-

er In taking such action as will be no

ch an unjust measure as the national
poll has won fit to force upon the

NEW BRITAIN, Janary 22—Resi-
dents of this town living near St
Mary’s Roman Catholic Church were
startled by an explosion about 12:30
last night, and soon after the church
was discovered to be on fire. A gener-
al alarm was sent in and the entire
department turned out to fight the
flames, which had gained great head-
way. The fire Irad started In the base.
meat of the church, and fifteen min-
utes after the alarm had been sent in
the church. which is one of the most
beautiful In New England. was wrap
ped in flames. Fathers Leddy and
Herty who were sleeping In the. par.
ish house nearby, were aroused and
ran to the church. The priests went
into the burning structure and endeav-
ored to save the blessed sacrament.
The fiames were too hot, however, and
they were rescued with great difficulty
by therfiremcn. At half past one it
became evident. that the interior of tho
edifice would be completely destroyed.
The church is a brown stone structure
and has a chapel in the basement. it
was buflt In 1888 at a cost of $150,000.
The cause of the cxplosion which
started the fire Is a mystery. as the
boiler rooms are removed from that
portion of the building.

No explanation could be given this
afternoon of the cause of the fire. The
entire interior of the church lies a
mass of twisted iron and stone in the
cellar. The church was equipped with
an organ that cost $10,000.

The building was lighted by gas and
electricity. Many believe. that a do
foctively insulated wire came in con-
tact. with a gas leak. The church was
Insured for $75,000. but the loss will
be in excess of that figure.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CHURCH.

The lower part of St. Mary's Church
was dedicated In 1889 and the church
was completed in 1893. Bishop Tier
pay was the pastor of the church at
that time and Ire was largely instru
mental in having the church built The
church and the contents are valued at
5150.0th and everything is lost. The
church accommodated between 1,500
and 2.000 people. The building was of
broken stone and of Gothic architec-
ture. There was a chapel in the base.
Inent.

BISHOP TIERNEY FORMERLY
PASTOR.

When the pastor of the church, Rev.
Michael Tierney. was made bishop of
the diocese, he was succeeded by Rev,
Father Harty, who came here from
Hartford. Father Harty is the pres-
ent pastor of the church. He built the
rectory about tyo years ago at a cost
of $30,000.1t was one of the hand
somest Episcopal residences in the
state.

mony of the confirmation of the Right
Rev. Charles A. Gore (who was canon

of Westminster and chaplain-In-ordln
cry to the late Queen Clctoria) as
bishop of Worcester. at the church
house. Westminster, today, was at.
tended by an extraordinary scene of
tumult. The hall was thronged and
there were numerous objectors to the.
confirmation, among whom John Ken-
sit, the notorious anti-ritualist cru«
sader. They protested so vehemently
that what was intended to be a semi
religious ceremony, assumed the char
actor of a disorderly political gather-
ing. Bishop Gore's editorship of Lux
Mundl and the fact that he is the fund
or of the. monastic celibate society
figured largely among the arguments
of the protestors.

The vicar general ruled out most of
the protests, where upon Kenslt, in
vigorous terms. defied the vicar-gener
al to stifle him, declaring he would
continue to protest until ejected by
force. A great uproar followed and It
was only when the vicar-general pre—
pared to carry out his threats to clear
the hall that Kenslt consented to sit
down. Shouts of “farce" and “con-
spirncy". accompanied Bishop Gore‘s
dcrrlaratiou and ,the administration of
the oath.

John Kenslt. secured considerable
notoriety during recent years by his
antl-ritualisi’o protests. He created a
disturbance April 1? last during the
consecration of' the Right Rev. A. F.
lngraham as bishop of London, assert-
ing that the bishop was unfit for the
,ofiice. Kcnslt was eventually escort-
cd home by a score of policemen, fol-
lowed by a howllhg mob.
