He stabbed her Majesty with a stiPettc. The Empress had been stopping at the Hotel Beaurivago for sever al days. It was at first thought the wound was not serious, bu t she died in a few minutes. It appears that her Majesty was walking from her hotel to the land- ing place of the steamer at about i o'clock, when an Italian anarch- ist approached and stabbed her t o the heart. The Empress fell, got up again an d was carried to the the steamer unconscious. The boat started, but seeing the Empress had not recovered consciousness, the captain returned and the Em- press was carried t o the Hotel HeaunvaRO, where she expired. The murderer is a man named Lucchoni. He was born in Paris of Italian parentage. The murder has stirred up all Europe. In London it has created much excitement in anarchist cir- cles. Chief Inspector Melville had recently redoubled th e vigi- lance of his detectives a t Soho in anticipation of a possible plot in connection with the enthronement of the Cjueen of Holland. I t is be- lieved at Scotland Yard that th e plot to assassinate was hatched in London. Do you shave?
