damage was done by the fire, which
was confined to the two bedrooms. Ii
is now stated that the trouble original
ed in an imperfectly insulated electric
light wire, which set fire to beam be-
tween the ceiling of Miss Knollys' bed

soon brought the household fire bri-
gade, which quickly began the work
Of extinguishing the fire. Sir Dighton

king, also speedily arrived and took
charge of the operations. Queen Alex
andrs. who displayed the utmost com
posture, remained with Miss Knollys
near the scene until she was assured

shows that more damage was done by
water than by fire. A large number
Of the queens treasured knickknacks
