She viii pc the First Reisnins

country-Llkeiy To Embark

Sofa.-It has been definitely decided
that Queen Eleonora Of Bulgaria. ac-
|companied by an extensive suite, will.
visit the United States next May. The
trip viii probably be begun about the
middle of May and it will last six or
eight weeks. Details of the length of
the stay Of the Queen and her en-
tourage in America and the itinerary
of the trip are now being worked out.
During her stay In the United States
the Queen hopes to deliver series of
lectures in the principal cities with the
object of placing before the American
public the real position of Bulgaria re-
garding the late war. She will also
make an appeal for help in behalf of
the thousands of refugees now starry
ing in Bulgaria. A representative of
the Queen will leave for New York
within the next few days to arrange
details.
The visit is the result of the deep in

ened by the close association of the
King and Queen with the American
surgeons who were in charge of the
Bulgarian hospitals during the recent
war
1t was at first reported that King
Ferdinand himself proposed to visit
the United States in 1915, but the
Queens intense desire to make the
trip, coupled with the fact that her
visit will relieve the United States Of
the diplomatic endorsements of a
state visit from an actual reigning
monarch. resulted in her wish being
granted
1t is probable that Queen Eleonora
will eda6ronN Sofia to Hamburg as
a German princess. There she will
embark, if her arrangements will fit in,
on the steamship Imperator The suite
of Queen Eleonora will include, in adj
dition to some diplomatists. aides-de-

ments and ladies in waiting, who will
wear their picturesque native cos

Queen Eleonora will be the first
reigning sovereign of Europe to visit
