A number of Italian carabinieri were brought over, and these declar- ed that they recognised three Italians who were mixed up indirectly with the murder of King Humbert.

NOTICE.
A HOME paper says Raymond, the notorious theft of the celebrated picture, ("The Duchess of Gainsborough) was born in 1841 in a mining village outside one of the big towns of America, His father, a Russian Pole, and his mother, a Germán, kept a store there. From boyhood he showed indications of precocious dishonesty, and as years' begat experience he organised some big robberies abroad. In 1876, while living in a flat rented at £600 a year near the Royal Academy, Raymond conceived the idea of stealing the Gainsborough picture. Two American thieves were in London with designs on the art treasures in the-National Gallery and
British Museum. These places were too well guarded, however, and Raymond suggested that they should steal the picture belonging to Messrs. Agnew. One of the men found place of concealment over a sign-board. He hid there until darkness permitted him to get into the building through a window. It was but the work of a minute to cut the picture from the frame, roll it up, and lower it to his accomplice in the street below. He then get on to the window-sill and lowered himself by means of a tope. The picture was taken to the receiver, Kaymond, who gave them £50, and subsequently another £150 passed hands.
