VICTORIA is NO MORE.
Death of Queen of Great Britain Oc-
ours at Osborne House.
Surrounded by Her Children and
Grandchildren She PASSES Peace
fully Away-A Sketch of
Her Career.

Cowes. Jan. 23.--Queen Victoria died
at 6: 80 o'clock Tuesday night surround
ed by her royal children and grandchil-
dren. Four days of silent suffering cul-
minated in an ending as peaceful as
sleep could make it. For the preceding
two hours and half her majesty had
sunk grad dually toward death, and, her
life spark fiickered out as quietly and
calmly as the mellowing rays of the
disappearing sun.
The queen passed away quite peace
fully. She suffered no pain. Around
her were gathered almost every de-
scendant of her line. Well within view
of her dying eyes there hung portrait
of the prince consort. 1t was he who
designed the room and every part of
the castle. In scarcely audible words
the white-haired bishop of Winchester
prayed with his sovereign, for he was
her chaplain at Windsor. With bowed
heads the imperious ruler of the Ger
man empire and the man who is now
king of England, the woman who has
succeeded to the title of queen, the
princes and princesses. and those of less
than royal Gesigna ton, listened to the
bishops ceaseless prayer. Six O'Clock
passed. The bishop continued his in
tercession. One of the younger chill
dren asksd a question in shrill, child
ish treble and was Immediately silenced

RULE of VICTORIA.
Her Reign Spans Period of Nearly
81 Years.

Alexandria Victoria, queen of Great
Britain and Ireland and empress of In
dia, was born at Kensington palace on
May "A, 1919. She was the daughter of the
duke of Kent, fourth son of George Ill,
and the Princess Victoria Mary Louisa of
SaXe-Coburg Saalield. relict of the her
| editary prince of Leiningen. Her father
| died a few months after the birth of his
| daughter, who was brought up under the
care of his widow. Her education was
| intrusted to the duchess of Northum-
berland and her training was better edu-
cationally and otherwise than usually
falls to the lot of princes and princesses.
Prudence and economy were especial
features of her education and she was
| taught to be self-reliant, brave and sys-
| tematical.
She succeeded to the throne on the
death of William W., third son of George
| Ill, June 20, 1897, when the crowns of
| England and Hanover, which had been
| worn by the same person since the ac-
| cession of George /. in 1714, were separ-
| ated, the former devolving upon the
| young princess and the latter, by virtue
of the Salic law, falling to the duke of
Cumberland, the late kings younger
brother. She was crowned in Westmin-
ster abbey June 2S, 1888. Some interest
| was taken in the fact that from the first
the queen subscribed herself simply Vic
| toria and not, as had been expected
Alexandrna Victoria.
The early years of Victoria's reign were
| full of interest and excitement There
were the rebellion in Canada, the anti
| corn league the chartist agitation the
Jamaica question. the never-ending Irish
| question, the Afghan war and the war
with China. Along with these events
came the introduction of many of the
great discoveries in science, industry and
| commerce which are now considered spe-
cially representative of modern civiliza-
ton. reign says one of its clearest
historians, which saw in rs earliest years
| the application of the electric current to
the task of transmitting messages, the
| first successful attempts to make use Of
steam for the business of trans tlantic
navigation. the general development of
the railway system and in the introduce

Bids All Farewell.
Cowes, Isle of Wight, Jan. 23.-The
queen is said to have bid farewell in a
feeble onosyllable, to her family as
sembled at her bedside at midday. She
firse recognized the prince of Wales, to
whom she spoke few words of great
moment; then Emperor William and
aie others present fled past and heard
whispered good-by. All those in the
bedroom were in tears.
The prince of Wales was very much
affected when the doctors at last in
formed him that his mother had
breathed her last. Emperor William,
himself deeply affected, did his best
to minister comfort to his sorrow
stricken uncle, whose new dignity he
was the first to acknowledge.
From all parts of the world there are
still pouring into Cowes messages of
! heads, millionaires, tradesmen and
paupers, and are variously addressed
to the prince of Wales and the king OF
England.
Emperor William arrangements are
| not settled. His yacht will arrive to-
day, but it is believed that he will not
depart until after the funeral.
