condition last night was even more
satisfactory than had been indicated
by the last bulletin. He had made a
decided improvement and the feeling
at Buckingham palace was very hope
full. His majesty was able to take
nourishment. He had scrambled eggs
and little hook and soda last even

several kilograms.
The bulletin issued at IL o'clock
last night was regarded as intensely
satisfactory. This bulletin was gen.

upon which the kings doctors had al

People n Quiet Mood.
Notwithstanding the fact that it
was the eve of the intended corona
ton day, and that London was even
more crowded with people than it was
Tuesday, the scenes witnessed on the
streets last night were marked In
pleasant contrast with those of Tues.
day evening. The reckless rejoicing
which was then so disgracefully prom
inc Mt was quite unheard last night.
Traffic pursued it's way unimpeded,
and even the most popular thorough
fares were comparatively deserted.
No illuminations dispelled the NATURAL
gloom which settled over the metrop-
oils. The moon failed to penetrate
the darkness over the city and a
rather cold wind was blowing.
Quiet and depressed, the crowd
waited outside Buckingham palace for
che nights final news of the sovereign.
For several hours they kept their pa.
tient vigil, wandering aimlessly, but
with palpable aniety, over the open
space which fronts the royal resi-
dence. For some reason or another,
a feeling peryaded the crowds that if
the king lived until last night he
would live to be crowned.
Al! Quiet Within the Palace.
Inside the palace all was quiet
Queen Alexandra, who had been in the
vicinity of the sick room the entire
day, dined with few members of the
royal family. The callers who came
to the palace in the course of the
evening, contented themselves with

the police. Lord Grey, a director of
