Resolutions were adopted urging the

ernment for repudiating the report cf
the royal commission on the financial
relations between Great Britain and Ire
land, expressing regret at the necessity
of raising a Parnell family fund. and

The climax of the convention was
reached during the speech delivered by
William Redmond. Incidentally he
said when the Dillonites rejected Par
nell they "alienated the United States,
thus killing the goose which laid the
golden egg" Continuing. Mr.. Redmond
said he would never walk into any room
TO be controlled by Dillon and Healy,
though he was for unity adding: with
all the royal professions through our
streets. IL is time for Irishmen to say
something. The great mass Of the Irish
people are today, and will be until liberty
is given them, the enemies of England.
England is bully, a pirate and a savage.
Whether in India or in Afric. the bloody
flag of the British empire has been ad-
vanced by plundering and destroying
poor people. Our sympathy goes out
TO these poor people. God bless them
and give success TO their efforts. Three
cheers for the men IN India who are fight

The delegates thereupon climbed upon
their seats and shouted: Down with

denunciaticn OF Great Britain's proposal
to give ireland a Catholic university, the
participation Of priests in politics be-
ing denounced. The Healyites were
characterized as the "assassins Of Par
nell"
There was no discord whatever, the
resolutions were all adopted with en-
thusiasm and the reading Of telegram
from the Irish Independent league OF
New York was heartily cheered. The
proceedings were finished last night and
the prediction of a revolt against the
leadership OF John Redmond proved en-

balanced and competent company as this

The playwri ght let's the audience into
the secret at once. 1t is understood from
the outset that the woman hating lawyer

little and those who krow 1t all. will
make love to the sweet woman who comes
TO him as a female lawyer and solicits aid
from him to find a woman who has been
deserted and who finally turns out to be
her mother. and herself an illegitim6te
offspring.
The wooinQ Is charming. There Is
nothing maudlin about It, and the asso-
citation of the two with counter love inter-
ests and quarrels commingles sentiment,
comedy and pathos that reaches the
mark and demands recognition. The
working out of the detail is interesting,
both in text and situation. From the
lishtness of dawninR love it travels for
the most part in rational way up to the
startling denouement OF illeQitimacy.
There is no surprise for the audience, be
cause that end was seen quite distance
ahead, but it makes good situation and
leaves nice impression as tho sweet
woman and manly man plight their troth
and the curtain falls.

nicety of the playing and responded to
the sentiment of the play by double re-
calls at the end of each of the four acts.
