ENeLANp's QUEEN IN DANGER.
Has Narrow Escape from Death in
Fire In Royal Residence.

The life OF Queen Alexandra was
imperiled by a fire which broke out
Dec. 10 in the royal palace at Sand
bingham in room adjoining that in
which the Queen was sleeping. Only
by fortunate circumstance was the
fire discovered and her majesty
aroused in time to prevent a calam-
ity. AS It was Queen Alexandra had
an extremely narrow escape, being
forced to flee through the smoke from
her room in a dressing gown.
The queens secretary, Miss Knollys.
in whose bedroom the FIRE started. just
succeeded in awaking her before the
smoke and flames became too thick to
form a barrier to their escape.
The queen had barely escaped from
her apartment when the floor of the
room collapsed, carrying with it her
bed.
SThe fire started in Miss Knollys'
bedroom in the chimney fiue. where n
beam is supposed to have been smol-
dering for some days. It spread rap
idly to the queens bedroom.
Miss Knollys. awakened by the
smoke, rushed at once to Queen Alex
andra's bedroom. Cropping her way
through the smoke and flames which
already filed the room, she awakened
the queen. Hastily throwing her own
dressing gown over her royal mistress
she guided her from the room.
The two women had just reached
the broad corridor outside when the
floor Of the queens room collapsed.
Five minutes delay would have meant
almost certain death for both
Following the FIRE the greatest ex-
element prevailed in the house, where
big house party is staying.
The fire was confined to the two
bedrooms.

Look to Your Hat.

Head coverings in keeping with the
style of the gown are necessary to a
finished whole also. To wear an ella.
borate hat with plain morning
knockabout gown is in very poor taste
while a severely plain sailor, with
only scarf or wing, looks entirely
out of place with an afternoon dressy
tailor gown. The turban and sailor
hat are the two most popular and al
most universally becoming hats of
the palmer sort to wear with morn
ing suit. Breasts, quilts. pompons of
coque feathers and ribbons provide
the trimmings for these.
