threads of pure gold. When finished the
cloth, which 'will be insured for £500,
will be taken to the London School of
Art Needlework and made into robes
for the King and Queen. The fabrie is

Kingston, March 20. -After serving
three years and three months in a four-

the time allowed off for good. behavior,

released from the penitentiary.
It is understood he has gone to To-

better than when he entered.
Phillips was the founder of the York

which, due to its real estate speculation

lection from depositors and others, on
which it was built, went to smash. It
had thousands of victims, mostly per-
