Quebec, Aug. 6.--Non-Catholics will no longer be given the privilege to get their education in Roman Ca- tholic convents in the Quebec dio- cese, probably throughout the pro vince, and most likely throughout America according to a circular fet- ter issued recently by Candinal Be- gin, primate of the Roman Catholic Church in Canada which bars non- Catholic pupils from such dnstitu- tions, This circular letter it is under- stood merely puts in force an exist- ing regulation more or less applied by the Holy See preventing the ad- mission of mnon-Catholics in Catholic . | convents, ahd though the order on La yaa ot Sean. ot Quebec where His Eminengs has jurisdiction, it is understood that the same attitude may be adopted by the heads of the Church in Canada and probably throughout the whole would as the instructions emanated from Rome. According to the dootrine of the Roman Catholic Church there has always been a sentiment that there should not exist any close comtact between children of different faith, it being the cause, it was sald, of a decrease in the personal faith of one or the other party. However. conditions in the New World may make complete rigid enforcement of the rule a matter of study and delay mn many places, DEMAND $42 WEEKLY. Ottawa Theatre Musicians Ask High. er Wages.

T0 STUDY QUESTION OF DEATH PENALTY The British Government Con- sidering Appointment of a Committee. London, Aug. 6.--The Socialist members of the House of Commons are continually harrying Arthur Henderson, the Home Secretary, con- cerning the abolition of capital pun- ishment. It is well known that Mr. Henderson views the death sentence with disfavor, but nevertheless he shows little disposition to move de- fnitely towards its abolition. In his absence in Dublin today, his deputy Rhys John Davis, told questioners in the House that the appointment of a committee to comsider the abol- ition of capital punishment was un- der consideration, though he was doubtful if such committee would be able to decide whether the death sentence deterred murder, The attendance of newspapermen at executions in future lies within the discretion of the county sheriff.
