jeanette was encouraged By = glance
from her companion-the Baron de
Gonesse-to begin her story.
She briefly described her early home
and the monotony Of village life in Vau-
couIeurs. which was only relieved by
the presence Of The garrison soldiers
and by occasional pilgrims to The shrine
of Joan Of Arc. She proceeded adroitly
to embeIlish the parable by dwelling
upon the superstition which haunted the
region owing to the many memories of
the Maid Of Orleans sim cifBging like
ivies about the ancient woods.

village and gaining confidence as she

mond Speaks Encouragingly.
London, March 19.-John Redmond
presided over the ST. Patrick's day
banquet given last night at the Hotel
Cecil and at which 700 persons sat
down.
The United Irish League of America
sent cablegram of greeting.
John Redmond, proposing the toast
of ireland Nation" said that the
aspiration of Irishmen was not an ig-
noble dream Of gain or vengeance. The
political movement was never fuller Of
hope and triumph than at the present
moment, and in justice to themselves
they must recognize that the success
thus achieved was directly due to the
unity, courage, self sacrifice and or
ganization of their people
; They could not forget this in the
presence of those Irish members of
parliament who since last st. Patrick's
day banquet had suffered in English
prisons. They might also congratulate
themselves on the beginning of a great
educational and industrial revival in
Ireland, which would enable it to COM
pete with the foreigner, and last and
not least, there was revival of the
cause of temperance.
