Hartford, Conn.,, Dec. 16.-(Spe- cles in the United States will reach an all-time high of about 28,277, ,000 this year, the Travellers Insurance Company announced today. The estimate is based on complete re- ports from 43 states. Connecticut reported 389,540 as compared to 337,586 in 1895. The figures are for 8 six-month period.
 Returns from 47 states indicate that gasoline consumption. too. will exceed the best previous years rec ord by q wide margin. In 1885 Connecticut motorists used I43,052,- 7es gallons as compared to 159.O35,- PAT in a ven-months. period. of AOSOs ... p.. .....
 Not only does the car registration figure for 1886 exceed last years total by nearly eight per cent but it is also greater by six and one half per cent than the previous high total of 26,545, 900 in 1880.
 Safety Improves
 In view of the fact that this years motor vehicle death record shows practically no change from 1885. these substantial gains in reg istration and gasoline consumption indicate some progress in street and highway safety. More cars are be- ing driven more miles per accident. Tn previous years the death record rose or fell in fairly direct propor- ton to the amount of travel.
 New Hampshire was the only one of 43 reporting states to show a dee crease in car registration. New Mexico Connecticut, Vermont Montana. Utah. Louisiana. Idaho, Oregon and Michigan all show gains of more than ten per cent.
 Reports indicate that the Moun- tain states will have the largest percentage gains In registrations this year and the West North Cen- tfal states will show the smallest gains. ny geographical terril0rics the percentage increases reported in the number Of cars in use are: New

 Here it is not forgotten that of the four queens in their own right who ruled England, three were 50 illustrious as to impart their names to the ages in which they rurled.
 England achieved domination 6ver half the world under Eliza beth. Good Queen Anne" still brings mellow memories to stu- dents of English history, while Victoria's long and generally sun- ny reign is still green in the mem ory of older Britons. They know that under the British conception of monarchy, a reign by new Elizabeth might well prosper be- yond that of any of the male line of Windsor.
 So there is no alarm, but only the kindliest and most devoted in- terest in the rapidly-growing and developing girl who already, be- fore she is II, has shown so many of the traditional attributes of queenliness.

.Lonergan Proposes
 Bill On Amendments
Ratification of Constitutional Changes By Popular
 Elections Advocated By Senator From Connecticut

in such state. The times. places, and manner of holding such
 elections shall be prescribed by
 law in each state: but in any
 ease in which there Is failure
 or refusal to provide for such an
 election in any state, congress
 shall have power to provide by
 law therefor. No state, without
 its consent shall be deprived of
 its equal suffrage in the senate"
 Senator Lonergan has advocated an amendment of this kind for man.. years, and believes that the people by their vote at the recent election voiced a demand for more efixible methods of adopting con- stitutional amendments, so that economic and soial advances can be facilitated.
 The Lonergan bill itself must be proposed as an amendment to the Constitution under the present pro- cedure requiring ratification by the legislatures of three-fourths of the states.

ELIZABETH GETS SEQ MONTHLY ALLOWANCE

But Elizabeth was growing up rapidly now When she was six she had been given her first Post Office Bank, to put her pen- nies in. With all of $20 month to spend, quite by herself, it was possible to save a lot of pennies, though of course now there were things like buying holiday pres ents for Margaret Rose, as befitted 8 practically grown up young lady nearly five years older.
 The relationship between Prin- cess Elizabeth and her baby sis- ter has been one of the delights of those who have observed the royal family closely. That she was placed in 8 situation of "lit- tie mother" has helped to mature Elizabeth, and her protective at- titude and practical care of Mar garet Rose have impressed many. The care with which Elizabeth planned her parties and gifts on festive occasions with the interest of her baby sisted at heart were most touching.
 Gradually the princess sphere began to widen. It was at eight years that she was first taken to the circus, and the famous old clown came to the box and tried to fool her with his "hot poker" trick, thrusting forward what" was supposed to be a red hot iron. Sagacious little girls of eight could easily see that it was just red paint.
 It was at that time that Princess Elizabeth went to her first play. Visits to Scotland and the Earl and Countess of Strathmore be- came more rare as Queen Mary took 8 more and more active part in the training of the princess. It was the queen who began her training in court etiquet and the discipline that goes with long ceremonials.
 For instance, 1t was in 1885 that the little princess was first taken to witness the annual ceremony of the distribution of the Maundy Money, sitting patiently in a stall in Westminster Abbey while the

 London, Dec. 16 = The Princess Elizabeth was not quite 10 when an event of really major importance en- | tered her life.
 They were staying at Sand ringham, when suddenly she and Margaret Rose were sent home to London. They were told only that grandfather is very ill."
 And yet a few days later they were returning with the Duke and Duchess to Sandringham to see grandfather" for the last time, lying so still as the candles flickered and the frozen guards men stood at either corner of the caSket. l
 But of course, Uncle Dave" was to be king. Elizabeth still remembered how he had sent her the cute Cairn terrier puppy when she was three, and how he liked to get right down on the floor and play horses" And of course there was that time when she tried to currsey when David en- tered the room, and fell down. Uncle Dave" promptly fell down himself in the same manner, just to show that it could happen to anybody, even the Prince of Wales. How they both laughed!

HOW ELIZABETH
 SPENDS HER DAY

Uncle David" passes along now, and her own father is king. But immediate change in the daily rou- tine of the little princess is not likely. It includes being called by her nurse at 2 a. m. for breakfast, visiting her royal father and moth- CT at 8 to bid them good morning this morping.' Lessons in French writing and arithmetic follow until luncheon at 1, with play periods irl- terspersed with the lessons.
 Tea is at four, and an effort is always made to have either the Lascelles cousins, or other suit able little girls present at play time. Bedtime is at eight, and neither grandma" nor the new Scotch queen-mother is the type to allow any argument about it.
 The events of the past few weeks, placing Princess Elizabeth in line for the crown, will only speed up and accentuate the edu- cational process. Before she was three. the princess was given ter restial globe, and knowledge of the empire she may one day rule will begin to be emphasized.
 It IS disclosing no secret to note that the princess has been grow ing somewhat more plain in ap- pearance as she natures. Tn her baby days she really looked al- most like Shirley Temple, with glorious curly blonde hair and blue eyes. Bue the curl has almost disappeared from her hair; and while she has a very sweet smile and the expressive eyes of her mother, she is beginning to look markedly like the former Queen Mary. now Dowager Empress,

PRIVATE TUTORING LIKELY TO BE WELCOMED

|
 Her 10th birthday was again to be historic, the only one on which she was to receive a pres- ent from Uncle David" as King Edward VIII. It was a riding crop, with her initials embossed in heavy silver. and it took long time to find it, for the birthday gifts were discovered in treas ure hunt" Princess Elizabeth en- livened this occasion by giving & piano recital, and by singing and reciting in French.
 Though by this time she was allowed to drive little electric car around the grounds of the private gardens at Windsor, her father put his foot down firmly against her desire to run the ele- vator in the Piccadilly house.
 The private tutoring under Miss Crawford, which was soon to have been replaced by public school career, will probably be resunied now that Princess Elizabeth is so likely to become Queen Elizabeth II. That has been the British trag dition for potential feminine rul- CTS.
