Deaihs of Royalties
! A gruesome story comes frnn
London of the appearance of The
"phantom barge of the Thames
for three successive nights preced
ing the death of the Queen. This
phantom barge is believed by the
waternen of the Thames to appear
when member of the royal alfamily
is about to die, just as the cele
brated "whlte lady of the Hohen
zollerns" gives warning of death
of a monarch of that family. And
when this phantom barge appears
gliding through the low lying
shadow aud night mists of the
river the great clock of WestminIs
ter, Big Ben, gives 13 strokes at
midnight instead of his ordinary
dozen. Just now any number of
Thames watermen can be found
who say they have seen the phan.
tom barge and heard Big Ben strike
his ominous number
There are we'll authenticated in
stances Of Big Ben having struck
Is at midnight. Once n soldier Oh
duty at Windsor was charged with
having slept on post, and was sen
fenced TO be shot. 1t was charged
that he was asleep there at mid
night of certain night. His de
fense was that he was not asleep,
and that he had heard Big Ben III
London strike IL at the momen'
he was charged with havlng been
sleeping on dury. 1t was proved
that on that night Big Ben had
struck l3, and bad been heard in
Windsor, The man wars pardoned.
This is recorded case, but the
record does not say that any
catastrophe happened to the ra,ai
family next day.
" is said that the phantbm barge
appeared on the Thames at mid
night and Big Ben struck l3 on
the n,gnt before the death of the
Prince Consort. and that the same
things happened the night preced-
ing the death of the Princess Alice
and of the Duke oi Clarence.
When phantom barge appeared on
January Is, 1892, the night Before
tho death of the Duke of Ciaranvc.
another boat, pulled by four men,
