LONDON, Nov. 6.-Sir Henry James con-
tinued his speech for the Times before the
Parnell commission today. He quoted
from speeches made by Mr. Davltt in 1880
to show that the object of the land league
was under cloak of constitutionality to
effect combination between the forces of
the moderates and extremists belonging to
the American Cian-na-tiael and the Irish
constitutionals in the work of keeping Ire
land unsettled. The commission, Sir
Henry declared, had evidence regarding
the importation of arms into Ireland from
men who were openly supporting Mr.. Par
nell aid who were members of associations
which were in active sympathy with the OBJ
jects OF the league.
Sir Henry James referred to speeches by
Sheridan, Brennan, Boyton and others to
prove that the agitators were ready to re-
sort to criminal means to effect their pur-
poses and speeches of members of the
league, he said, showed violence was sug-
gested and glorifed in. and even Parnell
he'd that crime might be necessary

Greeley's Daughter at Home.

A Chautauqua correspondent thus do
bcribes Miss Gabrielle Greeleys home life:
"She gives barn parties now and then, to
which come all the working people of the
neighborhood, from the grandfathers to the
babies. They dance old fashioned dances and
play the games that were in vogue over -
hundred years ago among the country people
in England Miss Greeley moves among
them and seems heartily to enjoy seeing them
have good time. Some simple Refreshments
are served-cake and coffee or lemonade.
Miss Greeley is a strong temperance advo-
cate She has formed d novel temperance
club, composed of some of the village and
neighborhood women. She meets with them
every week and they take counsel together
as to the best way to reform individual cases
Of drunkenness in tae community, and they
have done much good il their quiet way. In
the winter the stone barn is put to another
use.
Miss Greeley meets her Sunday afternoon
club here. In the summer time the place of
meeting is this beautiful grove of pines You
can see the rustic seats and benches under
the trees. The club consists of the children
and grown up people of the neighborhood,
mostly Of the uneducated class They come
to hear her read and to get the books and
magazines she distributes among them. She
does not read to them from the Bible or from
religious books. They get enough Of that at
church. She picks out something entertain
ing, yet with good moral They are fond Of
VIII Cartoons poems, of Tennyson's, and of
bits of biography and travel They were de-
lighted with Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress
some of them never having heard Of it be-
fore. Miss Greeley also teaches a Sunday
school of adults. She walks to the Episcopal
church at Pleasantville-nearly two miles of
every Sunday. But she thinks nothing of
four or five miles. II any Of the neighbor-
hood people are sick or in trouble, she viii
