From one who was guest at the BAN
quet given to the Queen yesterday it was
ascertained that her Majesty looked ex-
ceptionally we'll and discussed the topics
of the day with her usual keen perception.
She appeared, however, to be getting so
short-sighted as to be almost blind. Just
before dinner the Duke of Abercorn, as the
premier peer of Ireland. presented to her
a jeweled four-leafed shamrock, which she
wore throughout the evening with evident
pride. From others who were present at
the function confirmation was obtained for
the reported calmness with which the
Queen received the news Of the attempt
upon the life of the Prince of Wales. Her

returned at $50 p. m. Crowds of people
filled O'Connell street in fruitless anticipa-
ton of seeing the Queen pass. The Queens
route was through one of the humblest sec
tions of Dublin township, section totally
devoid of natural beauty, and it must have
been decided on in consequence of her de-
sire to leave no part of the district UNI
visited and no class of her subjects neg
lected. There is no installing the surprise
caused by the presence of the venerable
lady who had braved the elements under
conditions that kept many others indoors
This evening there was another small
dinner party at the vice regal lodge, after
which the Duke and Duchess of Con-
Taught, Prince Christian, Earl and Coun-
tess Cadogan, Lord and Lady Dunraven
and Lord and Lady Londonderry. with 9TH
ers, attended a concert at the Theater
Royal. where there was a great patriotic
demonstration.
Great anticipations have been aroused in

festival when 10000 youngsters from all
parts of Ireland will be given chance to
see her Majesty.
Queen Victoria has decided to drive in
