With him will go Winthrop 8. Brooks of the Harvard museum staff. The expedition will sail, prob- ably about March 15, on Hard- wick’s steam yacht, the Arcadia. But whether Hardwick harpoons the |curious specimen, Harvard authori- ties hope that the university's ex- perienced tropical explorer, Brooks, will bring back other kinds of unique fish and animal life that may help to answer some of the ques- tions that have puzzied science ever |since Charles Darwin first visited the little frequented tropical is- lands. | Hardwick and Brooks will be ac- companied by Mrs. Hardwick and |their 12 year old daughter, Peggy. Hardwick's two Harvard room- mates, Malcolm J. Logan and Dr. | Thomas K. Richards, physiclans to |Harvard athletes, and Mrs. Rich- {ards. Brooks will join the expedition at Panama.

While the southwest was digging out of snow drifts and the lake re- gion was experencing sub - gero temperatures, gales along the Atlan- tic seaboard cost at least three lives, sank small craft and drove & steamer and a barge ashore. ‘Thres members of the crew of the fishing boat Henrietta were lost when their craft sank off Long Beach, Long Island, while a fourth saved himself by swimming in the icy waters four hours before he reached land. Off Newport, R. I, the steamer Herman Frasch, a freighter bound from New York for Providence, was driven ashore, and a small boat was sunk and a barge driven aground. The wind reached a maximum ve- locity of 60 miles an hour along the coast. The blizzard in the southwest cost 11 lives, delayed trains, interrupted communication and made highways impassable in Kansas and Missouri. In Nebraska and the Dakotas the temperatures dropped to 10 below zero and Chicago and the adja- cent region felt a drop of 18 de- grees in seven hours which brought the mercury close to the zero mark. ‘The cold wave borne on a storm which was moving northeast from {Lake Michgan _extended int® the south bringing~ sub-freesing tem- peratures almost to the Guif of Mexico. Louisville, Ky., reported 18 | degrees above zero, the lowest tem- perature 1n the southern states, ‘The gale which swept across New York state cost one life In Buffalo and caused heavy property damage in the western part of the state. A passenger in an automobile was killed when the wind blew a large tree down upon the car, The driver was severely injured. In New York city a heavy rain- fall accompanied the gail. The tem- perature dropped from 60 to freez- ing within a few hours. Graduation Photos SPECIAL, $3.00 PER DOZ. ENLARGEMENT FREE 'Arcade Studio \WHEN IN HARTFORD. DINE WITH US.

He did not speak again and, taking a sudden change for the worse died S8unday morning. The grand duke came here from Paris last November to seek a more | salubrious climate. Ppeumonia de- veloped from what apparently was a trivial cold. He made a valiant battle for his life and on New Year's Day was thought to be out of dan- | ger. ‘The grand duchess, who was Prin- cess Anastasia of Montenegro; Prince Andrew of Russia, Prince Battenberg, Grand Duke Peter of Russia and his wife, and the Duke | of Leuchtenberg were present when the end came. There also were some of h's old retainers and faith- ful supporters who had followed Pim in his exile. As commender-in-chief of the Russian armies during part of the time that Russia participated in the ‘World war. Grand Duke Nicholas was ' understood to have had behind him greater popular support ‘than was accorded the czar, who was his sec- | ond cousin. After the rise of the ' bolshevists, he was elected succes- sor to the throne of the Ilate Nicholas by the supreme council of | Russian monarchists, representing ! meveral million Russians living in exile, Tite Attempted The grand duke defeated numer- ous attempts made on his life. Soon after his appointment as comman der of the Imperial Guards an at- tempt was made to shoot him dur. irg a military review, At another time, a bomb was found on a rail- road track over which his train was to pass. In 1907, a train in which | he was riding was shot at.

During the Russo-Japanese war, he was president of the council of national defense and later inspec- tor general of cavalry. After the Russian loss at the battle of Muk- den, the council war decided to send him to Manchuria to take over command. Nicholas, however, de- clined to take over command, though he consented to go to Manchuria. After the Russo-Japanese war, the grand duke devoted himself to put- ting the army on a high plane of efficiency. Under his leadership the Russian Army in the World war conquered Galicla, threatened Hungry and diverted the attention of the Ger- mans from their drive toward Paris to a defenss of their own lines in the East. German reinforcements Bristol, R. 'l'{:ater Burned were sent from the western front and the Russian Army collapsed in the Masurian Lakes swamps. The grand duke was then sent to Tiflis to fight the Turks and his army collapsed. ‘When the revolution of 1917 broke out, he retired as a commander in chief, abdicated and turned over his property to the state. Since he had rallied royalists around him, he was arrested by the Bolshevists, He was sent to the Crimea where he became commander of the Cossack forces in Southern Russia, Later he went to Constantinople and from there to Rome and Paria.
