undersigned will not hold themselves responsible if the Lots be

sole risk of the purchaser.
_ 5. While the undersigned will not hold themselves responsible
for the correctness of the description, genuineness, or authen-
ticity of, or any fault or defect in, any Lot, and make no War-
ranty whatever, they will, upon receiving previous to date of
Sale trustworthy expert opinion in writing that any Painting
or other Work of Art is not what it is represented to be, use
every effort on their part to furnish proof to the contrary; fail-
ing in which, the object or objects in question will be sold sub-
ject to the declaration of the aforesaid expert, he being liable
to the Owner or Owners thereof for damage or injury occasioned
thereby.
6. To prevent inaccuracy in delivery, and inconvenience in the

moved during the Sale.
7. Upon failure to comply with the above conditions, the money
deposited in part payment shall be forfeited; all Lots uncleared
within one day from conclusion of Sale (unless otherwise specified
as above) shall be re-sold by public or private sale, without further

connected with most of the reigning houses of Europe.

Le Kain (Henri Louis Cain), one of the most cele-
brated actors of the French stage, was born in Paris in
1729. He began his histrionic career in a tiny theatre
on the Rue St. Merry, devoted to the performances of
i amateurs, but in 1750 he attracted the attention of
Voltaire, who, then at the height of his influence, took
him under his patronage and eventually introduced
him to the Comédie-Frangaise. Here Le Kain quickly
took his position as the most important member of the
company. He brought about a complete reform of
stage costume and banished the full-bottomed wig and
square-skirted coat which up to that time had been
the only wear permitted on the stage. Frederick the
Great invited him to play at Potsdam, and heaped
pecuniary and other honors upon him. He died in
1778, leaving an interesting volume of memoirs, which
were re-edited by Talma in 1825. One of his greatest

Born in 1775, Daniel O’Connell, “The Liberator,” be-
longed to an old Irish family that had suffered under
the penal code that kept the Catholics in subjection.
He thus inherited his strong antipathy to British rule
in Ireland. After attaining a distinguished position
at the Irish Bar, he entered Parliament in 1828, as
the leader in the movement for Catholic emancipation,
the succeessful outcome of which in 1829 was entirely
due to his genius and energy. After following the
Whigs for many years he changed his policy in 1841
and became the foremost champion of Repeal, and one
of the earliest of “Home Rule” agitators. But the

England. During five years she is said to have trav-
elled by postchaise no less than 25,000 miles. In
1831 her theatrical career came to a close on her mar-
