win She Come Down?

1t is now said on the highest official
authority, as well as being a matter of
common gossip in Parliament and at the
clubs, that the Queen is seriously con-
sidering the step of abdicating the Brit
ism throne. The recent reception of the
Prince Of Wales by the German Emper-
or has had great effect on the aged
Queen, who is now convinced that her
son ought to have chance to
play the leading role in England during
the rest of her life, which is certain to
be short. The queens bodily infrmity
is increasing, and she Is SO rapidly rum
ming to flesh that massage is necessary
to assist her breathing. One strong OBJ
lection the queen has to abdicating is
the contingency of being called ex-
queen. She wishes to assume the title
of queen regent for the rest of her life.
A special bill will be introduced into
Parliament when she is willing to re-
sign the actual throne, and the Prince
of Wales will be crowned King of En-
gland and Emperor of India.

The police at Catschina have discov-
cred explosives on the grounds of the

has in consequence renounced the idea
of going there to finish Lent. The Car
for two days has suffered from relapse
of influenza, which has compelled him
to postpone audiences. His condition
is not serious.
The Gar has abandoned his proposed
hunting trip in Poland, on account of a
plot to throw the imperial train off the
track. This was discovered by the fact
that decoy train, supposed to contain
the Gar and his suite, was wrecked by
rocks placed on the rails.
The peasants of Riazan, incensed at
the continued fogging and outrages
perpetrated by the district chief, Mord
vinoff, retaliated by thrashing Mordvin-
off severely and stoning the police.
The Gar was deeply panied on hearing
the news.
