Another Impending Apology.
"The majority of the blockading officers are drawn from the Royal

From "Mrs. Gossip's" account, in _The Daily Sketch_, of the audience at
the Serbian matinee at Drury Lane:--
"Every one I knew was there. Queen Alexandra looked dignified and
gracious in black and white. With her were the Princess Royal,
Princess Victoria, Princess Maud of Fife ... and Princess Arthur of
Connaught."
We trust that Her Majesty and the four Princesses were conscious of this
friendly recognition.
