ALEXANDRA OF ENGLAND LATEST Her Close Association with Her Sis- ter of Russia One of the Pa- thetic Feamtures of Her Bereavement. BY LADY MARY MANWARING. LONDON, July 2—(Special Dispatch to The Bee)—One of the most interesting women in Europe today is the queen mother Alexandra. There Is something deeply pathetic about the reverence shown by the queen mother | for the memory of the late king. It would | seem to be her majesty's desire not to dis- | turb in the slightest degree any of the ar- | rangements in the late king's apartments | which scive to suggest to her a sense of his genial personality. The death chamber at Buckingham palace today is in exactly the same condition as it was when his late! majosty, at the close of his life's journ was removed to the throne room. In fact, all the personal effects of the late sover-| «ign are to be found in the same place as| they were in the days of his full activity. | Morcover, no one has been allowed into| the room by her majesty, who is constantly | in and out and has constituted herself the | sole guardian of King Edward's eufte of rooms In the palace. A charming story which ilustrates Queen lexandra's complete confidence in the af-| fection of the people explains why the Em- | press Marle of Russia was the royal wid- ow's companion in her mourning coach King Edward’s tuneral. The officials wer much concerned for the safety of the em- | press, who is known to be the object of many anarchist plots. A military guard was out of the question since the empress could hot be treated differently from other august personages. When the officials were at thelr wits' end Queen A the problem by declaring t should ride In her carr “Marfe," sald her majesty, safe with me.” And M man, woman and child Were her guard of honor Dowager Queens 'Numerous. Now that Quecn Alexandra has heeome the queen-mother It is interesting to note what a large number of dowager qus there are In Europe at the present tf Rusala, Spain, Portugal and Italy all’have thelr dpwager and they inelud some of the most interesting personalitics in the royal courts of today.

Some years ago, the queen won a medal for saving the lives of two children from drowing In the Tagus. Her majesty is a strong swimmer, and seeing the children in peril, plunged into the river and rescued them. Spain’s Popul Herolne. The queen-mother of Spain Is almost ns popular amongst the people of her country as Queen Ena fs herself. She s extremely democratie, and mixes with the populace with a simplicity that has won all hearts. At one of the vintage cere- monies so dear to the hearts of the Spanish country folks, which took place a year or so back the queen-mother showed great interest in the proceedings. One of the observances was to slide down a glant cask of wine, and with characteristic good nature, the aged queen solemnly perched herself on the cask, and gracefully slid down it amidst the plaudits of her delighted subjects. I3 argherita of Italy. Queen Margherita, the queen-mother of Italy, has won the hearts of her poorest subjects wholly and solely on account of | her never-failing, loving kindness. Although | rarely subscribes towards ordinary charities, she goes amongst the poor and finds out for herself their particular wants. She takes a special delight in making presents of beds to the poor. These beds | are all after the same style, and are so famillar that no dealer dare take them in pledge or purchase. Her majesty has always been popular, but the facts of a little incident that oc- curred a year or so back have considerably enhanced her popularity. Her mafjesty, | the king, and a hunting party, were sitting round the campfire, when an equerry, in a fit of bravado took a leap over the fire | and set his clothes alight All lost thelr presence of mind except the queen, who, flinging herself upon the burning man, so enveloped him in her skirts that the flames were extinguished | and the victim escaped with a, few slight | burns.

The bridegroom Is| already connected by marriage with the bride’s family, for Mrs. Asquith (his step- mother) is the sister of Sir Edward Ten- | nant, whose wife s the sunt of Miss| Charterls. Queen Mary possesses ene of the most | | was wonderful collections of furs in the world, and she is very partial to these. Included In her majesty's collection is a magni- ficent set of Russion sables which were presented to her a few years ago upon the occasion of her birthday by the czar and czarina. She is often chaffed by members of her family regarding her preference for furs and fur-trimmed garments, and a short time ago his present majesty was asked what he thought she would wear upon the occasion of a yachting trip In the Solent. “Well, I am not quite sure,” he replied with a humorous twinkle In his eye, “‘but I rather imagine it will be something with tur on it." Queen Mary's furs are all carefully stored at Marlborough house In such fashlon that shé can obtain any set she requires at a| moment’s notice. They are also subjected | to very careful scrutiny from time to time by speclally selected experts. Another royal lover of furs is the princess roval who has a very valuable collection, as has the queen“mother. King's Cipher. It is an interesting fact, and one not generally known, that all the late king's uniforms bore the létters “V. R." on the epaulettes, and that the present king's uniforms bear the letters “E. R.” This is an invarlable custom with all monarchs. While all members of the royal household wear the cypher of the relgning monarch, | the soverelgn himself always wears that of his predecessor.

COPENHAGEN, July 2.—(Special Dis- patch to The Bee)—Former Minister of Commerce Arctlander of .Norway will doubtless be held up as a horrible ex- ample by the suffragists the world over. He does not believe in extending the fran- chise to women, and when the Norweglan Storthing passed a bill granting the muni- clpal suffrage to all adult women, he hold the royal signature from the measure. Upon his majesty deciding to give his assent Mr. Arctander promptly resigned and his resignation was as promptly ac- cepted. The new act adds 260,000 women to the 400,00 who previously had the municipal franchise, and the excess of female over male electors will be 14,000.
