Down through the saualld streets of the east side two United States Mar- shals to-day led a young and pretty woman. One of them carried a bulky parcel containing all sorts of jewelry and laces. A gaping crowd followed and even the enterpr! stopped to gaze at a trouble.” At the Federal Building this mourn- ful procession halted: mournful because the «irl had nearly collapsed from ter- ror. and even the stolid officers were moved by her sobs and self-reproaches.

REDMOND MAKES APPEAL. DUBLIN, April 15—Momentoun action was taken on the new land bill at the national convention under the auspices of the nUlted Irish League held In the Mansion House here to-day, when a motion to refect Secretary Wyndham's measure as not meriting support was defated by an overwhelming matority, The convention was thoroughly rep- resentative of all classes in Ireland, hence the action taken Jjnsures the approval of the bill in principle, John Redmand's Influence was shown in the course followed, he delivering a sveech approving the measure, John Redmond opened the proceedings with an Impressive talk. “Dhis convention,’ ho declared, “is the most solemn, the most momentous event in the history of Hving Irishmen with the exception of the Introduction of the Home-Rule bill. There are In the Hyves of nations es there aro in the lives of {ndividuais opportunities which once loat can nm be regained, Such an occa- sion I believe the present to be."* In eolemn tones and amid tense al- Ienca Mr, Redmond bogged ‘hin hoarers to remember their tremendous responei- y. If they rejected the pill it waa dead forever, and the greatest prospect of freedom sinco the “infamous act of union was passed’ would disappear. Many amendments were proposal to the bill, the chief movers being William O'Brien and Michael Davitt. The former, while congratulating Ireland on the fact that the British Ministry had Introduced a bill accepting in principle, after cen- turles of struggle, that the iand should be restored to the people of Ireland, urged the delegates to press amend- ments enlarging the financial scope of the bill. Mr. O'Brien, however, asked the con- vention to entrust) to the Parliamentary party the power and responsibility of evontually dealing in committee stage with {he amendments. While begging the delegaies to let their Parliamentary representatives set- tle the matter. Mr. O’Brien attacked the landlords, Irishes judges and British rule with the same virulence as has al- TO URS, THEBAUD Pearl and Diamond Necklace Worth $60,000 Awarded to Her After a Long Legal Battle. CLAIMED BY HER BROTHERS. The fnmous contest over the 360,00 pearl-and-diamond necklace left by Mra, Jules Reynal has been dectded with attempts at tho greatest secrecy before a referee, who has awarded the gems to Mrs. Paul G. Thebaud, Mra. Reynal'a daughter, Nathanfel C. Rey- nal and Eugene 8. Reynal were the losers, Mrs. Jules Reynal died two years ago. ‘The necklace was found with her other Jewels in the case in her boudoir, but Mrs. Thebaud took possession of it, claiming that several months before her mother’s death {t had been given to her. Her brothers ontered a protest, and sought to have the necklace made @ part of the estate to be divided equal- fy among them. Mrs. Theband said that she had had the necklace In her own jewel case for weeks and had worn it frequently. She explained Its presence In her mother’s case by saying that Mrs. Reynal had borrowed {t at the last social function before her death. In the confusion of Mrs, Reynal'a fatal illness Mrs. The- band forgot about the gems. Mrs, Thebaud has had the necklace a'] the time, her brothers making no at- tempt to get way by legal procedure except for a final division of the Jewels, She is bythe deolslon of the referee en- titled to keep It. When Mr. Thebaud’s valet stole the family jewels, in December, 1901, the necklace was saved, because Mrs. The- baud thought #0 much of It that she kept {t apart from her other Jewels, Sit right down and write to the } Gillies Coffee Company.
