located before they could be rescued.
Fiity-eight other boys were safely taken
from the burning building amid terrible
excitement.
Two Of the matrons of the institu-
ton escaped in safety by sliding down
the water pipes. Several of the boys
escaped in the same way. The super
intendent of the school repeatedly
rushed through the flames and brought
out a number of inmates.
The bodies of those who were suffo-
Gated were carried to the main hall Of
the building. which was still profusely
decorated with Christmas greens.
The female department, in which
were 80 girls, was not touched. The
boys retired in high spirits having been
promised presents and a New Years
fete.
The fire originated in q clothing
room beneath the boys dormitory.
The smoke and flames issuing from the
stove ilue alarmed those sleeping on

BnussEIA Jan. 2-The royal palaos

yesterday.
The fairs spread rapidly and AZ one
time threatened 70 cut OF the esoape o.
most Of the inmates The Princess
Clemeniine had a very narrow escape
from death and her rescue was made
with the greatest difficulty
A young lady employed as eoyemeSs
10 the Princess was unable o. follow
her mistress and Was burned Ia death.
The only portion of the place which
escaped the rayaees Of the flames was
that In which the private apartments
OF the King are situated. The royal
collection of works Of ART. n Of The
finest in Europe, comprising some ~
the most valuable paintings and statu-
AIRY extant, was entirely destroyed.
AT ten o'clock last night the pa,ace
had the appearance Of a huge furnace
and there came from Il constant
crashes and volcanic bursts Of Games
as timber and other masses of debris
fell into the FIRE. The heat was 10
great a. tototally prevent The approach
of the small fire brigade which at best
could have done but little.
The Queens apartments suffered
most. Much plate was saved. but the
valuable pictures, the Gobelintapestries
and the great library were al on
sumed. The extensive green houses
and stables were not touched.
The only occupants of the palace q;
the time the fire broke out were the
Princess C%lementine, aged seventeen, =
lady attendant and the g0yerness,
Dmncourt. The goyerness, having
escaped with the others, returned to
the Princess apartments 81 secure
some valuables and was suTocatcd.
The Queen lost by this fire interest
ing souvenirs of her children, especially
of her son who died at the age ~
twelve.
Napoleon I. resided for n time in this
castle, but II has since been much en-
larged and improved.
As soon as the fire was reported the
King and Queen suspended the New
Years day reception and hastoned
thither and witnessed the total de-
struction OF the palace, the usual In
mer residence.
IL is said the fire was caused by a de
fective stove in the officers quarters.
The loss is immense as TO money value
and as TO destruction of art treasures
that can not lie replaced,
All the private papers of the King
and Of Leopold |. and the Queens jew
clry were destroyed. Only the walls
are now standing. The body Of the
governess has not yet been found.
1t is reported that two ilremen We're
