No Progress Thursday.
(By The Associated Press,)

London. July THE Irish peace
movement on the surface made no
further progress today, but hopes re-
manned high, mainly because General
SHUTS, premier of South Africa, is
taking such an active part in the ne
gotiations with an evident purpose to
translate into practical politics the
kings message and exhortation for
forbearance at the opening of the
kUlster parliament.
The kings evident and serious in
terest in bringing about peace Is also
a strong factor in the situation. His
proffer Of Buckingham palace for the
meetings of the proposed conference
points in the direction of a repetition
Of the peace efforts Of 1914 when the
home rude conference assembled, in
the palace under the craftsmanship Of
Right Honorable James William Low
ther, then speaker of the house Of
commons.
SHUTS Is Trusted BY Irish.
1t is believed that il an independ-
emit chairman were appointed to the
conference now contemplated, espec-
tally General SHUTS, who is trusted
by the Irish people, there would be a
far greater chanceSof Mr.. de Valera
accepting the conference. It is prob
able that nothing will develop defi-
nitely pending tomorrow's Dublin con-
ference between the Irish Republican
leader and the Southern Unionists.
General SHUTS will not attend this
conference. & g

 Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sag ge and the mussy mixing at home.

SUPERVISION WILL LEAD
 ANOTHER ARCTIC EXPEDITION

Three of the men now at Wrangel Island, are explorers who wandered over the frozen wastes of the Arctic with Stefansson on other expeditions. They will be occupied all Winter in preparing the base for the expedi- ton.
 Speaking of the development and colonization of the Northland, Ste fansson declared that development will surely begin with the present generation.
 ''The mystery woven around the Nor,tI1'' he said, "has resulted from transformation. Theories that it is uninhabitable have been forever re- jected, for it has been proved that fuel and food exist in abundance. Travellers have died for want of them because they were unaware of their presence
 Since the true conditions in the North have been reaEDed,' he contin- ued, "colonization and commercial ex- ploitation will surely follow

 The problem of transportation will solve itself, Stefa nsson declared.
 There are two major difficulties standing in, the way of Northern de velopment," the explorer added. t'The first Is the wall of Chinese ignorance.

Kansas City. Mo, Nov. 2s-A gi- gantfc British expedition will be sent into the frozen North early next Summer, according to Vlhjamar Ste fansson, the noted explorer. He further revealed that a base for the expedition has already been establish ed on Wrangel Island, 110 miles north of Siberia, but stated that at this time he could not divulge the purpose of the trip.
 The expedition, he said, will be or ganized in March, either in Canada or England, and that information con- cerning the voyage into the Arctic will be made public in London after the organization is completed.
 Explorer Stefansson made his dis closures regarding the expedition as he stopped over in this city while on trip of a personal nature. He was able to give out the first news con- corning it because he had just receiv- ed word that his advance guard had reachd Wrangel Island.
 'fEarly last September he stated, T financed and sent a small expedi- ton into the North. The ship sailed from Nome, Alaska, with its destina- tion concealed, becaus did not wish to be preceded"
 The object of the voyage of the six men, Stefansson explained, was to establish the base for the great Brit ish expedition to follow.

Miss Katherine Kelly, a teacher, jumped
to the piano and struck up a march. If
there was any tendency to panic among

his booth with the shutters provided for

The story of the earrings says that
they were selected by Napoleon himself
and designed under his direction by the
firm which had been court jewellers to
Louis XVI. The Empress retained them
after her separation from Napoleon, and
when she died they became the prop
erty OF Eugene Beauharnais, her son
by former marriage. This family
went to Austria and the jewels re-
mained with them until the world war
ruined their fortunes. Then they let
IL be known in Paris that the earrings
were for sale.
A syndicate formed to bid for them

mond tiara, a pearl necklace ami

could not be raised. Pierre Cartier, one
