TUSSAUD’S RE-OPENS.
THRONGED BY VAST CROWDS. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, April 27. Every type of Londoner and many Americans thronged . Madame Tussaud’s, rescued from the ashes after three years, and reopened with bands and flags. The old dinginess has given way to a marble hall, marble stairs, electric lifts, and a gold balustrade. Crowds flocked round the Royal Family, dilating excitedly on the Queen and the “lovely Prince of Wake, just like his picture.” All the old Kings and Queens have been faithfully resurrected, while Sir A. Cobham and Colonel Lindbergh are among the latest arrivals. The netw “Chamber of Horrors” is a dim, dark dungeon, with stray beams of light shining on the faces of the criminals.
