s.. 100000 damages for alleged breach OF
contract is still pending In the District
courts, was running a boarding house.
and that he was attending to every de-
tail of that enterprise himself
New York dispatches now announce
that Mrs. Emma Sully. his wife, is. try
ing to regain jewels valued at $4,000
from Tiffany and Company, and has en-
tered suit in the New York Supreme
Court Whether or not her husband s
venture In the clearinghouse business
has been such a success as to enable
Mrs. Sully to reclaim her jewels is not
explained in the New York information.
The jewelry firm filed an answer ex-
planning why IL asks that Mrs. Sully's
suit should b. dismissed. The firm as
serts that II ~Jrchased the jewels In

representing himself as the duly accred-
tied agent of Mrs. Sully.' and that no
attempt was made 10 regain the jewelry
until after the lapse of time. which

History of Case.
The Jewels in question. which Mrs.
Sully charges were turned over TO Tiff
fany's without her knowledge or con-
sent, include the following: One mar
quise diamond ring. one diamond cres-
cent. one diamond bowknot. one dIa-

agent Of Mrs. Sully, and sold to the
firm the gems
The firm made a written agreement
with him to permit him to repurchase
the tewelry at the same price within
twelve months, but this option was never
acted upon.
About this time. Tlfanys explained,
Daniel ]. Sully came into the bank

charge. Tiranys appeared as a creditor
for about $4,000 IN the bankruptcy

jewellers assert, the assertion was made
that Mr.. Sully had transferred some of
his property to his wife in order to de-
feat his creditors. The suggestion was
made that she should return this prop
erty to the trustee in bankruptcy.

BIRD VILLAGE" OF MERIDEN

Mowers that the feathered guests partic-
ularly enjoy. Then they have feeding
stations, where there is ample protection
as well as food for tn shy little stran-
gers. And even in the most modest Of
all the residences there Is almost GER

seeds or crumbs, and there on the win

ping about in a vain endeavor to find
food and comfort: but the main street,
at least, would be fairly singing with
birds of different species. all trying to
tell how glad they were they had found
the Meriden sanctuary.
And when you asked how II came
about that there were so many unusual
birds wintering in the village you would
be told that the Meriden Bird Club was
the real inspiration, and that this little
organization OF birdlovers was extending
its influence far beyond the village where
it started.
Real Bird Paradise.
The club is fast establishing a real
bird sanctuary. for, through the gen.
crosby Of a woman. It has a farm at
its disposal. and the plan Is to make that
a real paradise for birds, not. however,
to lure them from the village streets.
The club has imported nesting boxes
from Germany, which are to be used as
copies for American homes, and has
secured the services of landscape archi-
tect and ornithologist. all in one.
And If attractive houses. luscious seeds
and things they love will attract a per-
manent bird colony of all the colors.
songs, and breeds. the Bird Club will
have them in wonderful numbers. for
apparently it will leave nothing undone
to make its sanctuary and the Meriden
streets and gardens beautiful home for
birds.

Village" may be in time counted as set

reports that something must be done for
the protection of song and plumage

would follow. even from afar off, the
example of little Meriden, there would
not be- so much need of prohibitive legis-
lation in their behalf.

quarters there is ruthless destruction
and lack of care, in others the birds are

For a Girls Room.

Making things for ones own room is
generally worth while and Is always
sure to give 1t far more originality
than when one buys the various deco

A girl with good taste will make her
room attractive anyway, but the one
who is willing to do some work will go
much further
One OF the ways in which few girls
think Of using their own skill is in the
making of curtains, and yet this is n
place where originality is especially
well shown

buying strong white or cream net

The border may, be made OF single

A girl who prefers an allover cur
tain may applique single sprays Of the

small sprays.
