remarka BILE because of his democratic ideas and
frank criticisms OF royalty, He SAYS among
other things:
Among all her millions Of subjects there are
but few who will not mourn for her loss as for
of their own household. Nor will the mourn
ers be found among her own subj7cts alone II
is not too much to say that never in the history
OF the world has a single death caused such uni
versal grief Alike IN happiness and sorrow. she
lived life beyond reproach, without thought OF
self. and unreservedly devoted to the duties OF
the hour Although occupying perhaps the
proudest position filled by woman. and
never wanting in certain queenly dignity, her
tastes habits. demeanor and even her dress
were marked by the rarest simplicity.
She has been. indeed the mother OF her peo-
pie and as a mother she will be mourned. In
all the affairs OF State she manifested the same
wisdom that inspired her private life. nor did
her own country alone enjoy the fruits OF her
experience and sagacity.
Through her kindred and descendants abroad
her influence for many years has been felt in
Continental politics. always the side Of peace,
and in at least oae crisis she Is known TO have
rendered service TO the whole OF Europe.

those who were unable TO get there personally

grief of all was evident, and the relapse an
nounced at o'clock was only too generally an
tcipated. Never were there so many black ties
in the city before the actual arrival Of time OF
general mourning and nobody mingling with the

in them had a keen personal interest IN the

DRANK THE HEALTH OF THE KING.
At the usual dinner of the Hilary Term OF
Gray's Inn the master teacher said;
Amid great sorrow we must follow the prac-
tice OF the Constitution, and recite God Save
the King"
The chapel bell tolled eighty-two times and
the Benohers drank the health of the King.
The papers devote columns Of space TO his
torcal and personal "reminiscences and the
scenes and incidents of the Queens life. En-
phasis is laid on the fact that Her Majesty paid
the penalty for her devotion to affairs of State,
It is generally recognized that until few days
ago there no harder worker in the King
dom. Roughly estimated she signed fifty thou
sand documents yearly. No dispatch of any
gravity was issued from the Foreign Office
until seen by the Queen, and some idea Of the
work thus entailed is gatherable from the fact
that the Foreign Office handles considerably
over a thousand dispatches weekly.
After every sitting OF the House OF Commons
the Government leader in the House was in the
habit Of forwarding to the Queen an abstract OF
the business done. She personally attended to
these documents, and frequently returned them
with marginal notes asking for explanations.
Ellen Terry's appearance at Sandringham be-
fore the Queen is recalled as being the only
casion on which Her Majesty ever prompted an
actress Mistaking a pause by Miss Terry for

placed on the Bishop of London's coffin Thurs
day last. 1t did hear her own signature.
and this is the first instance on record of such
a happening It regarded at the time by
the Court officials as a sign Of serious import.
The news of the Queen's death reached all the
towns IN the kingdom few minutes after *
