Several times before, rumors of his death had comeé forth from the darkness and uncertainty of ur Russian chaos but all had failed of confirmation. " As' the latest report etame by wireless ,it is generally- being atcepted as true, for the wireless .is under the control of the Boishevik fovernment and Lenine could certain- I have suppressed the story had he esired t6 do so. The alleged reason for the execution was that a conspiracy for a counter-revolution had been dis- eovered, the objects of which ineluded the removal of the deposed Czar from the hands of the Bolsheviki. The real reason doubtless was the success of the Czecho-Slovaks in Siberia and their approach to the region of the ex-Czar's confinement. As long 28 he lived Nichelas was a pbssible rallying point tor the religious and political sentiment of all Who opposed the presént goy- ernment. A simple order from. the local Bolshevik jeader, sufficed to re- move all misgivings. Weak as Nicholas had proved to be &8 a ruler, he is yet to be remembered for four really great deeds. The first was the calling of the original duma immedjately after the Russo-Japanese war, Though this might only debate and was powerless to legisiate, its very existence was the first break in Rus- sian absolutism and the first Step to- ward parliamentary government, Sec- ondly the late Czar called the original Hague Peace Conference, a grim traves- ty &s it seems now amid this warring world but yet the probable . founda- tion on which a permanent internation- al peace structure will be built. Again at the very beginning of the great war the order Nicholas I, abolished from all the realm the curse of vodka, the fiery Russian whisky. The manufac- ture and sale of vodka had been a government monopoly and the proceeds therefrom formed a large proportion of all the national income. Undar stimulus, the use of it had become nation wide. Every Sunday and every holiday the wretched peasant would drink himself intd a drunken stupor lfd the habit was. proving the curse of the fatmer and the demoralization of the soldier. In the effect on the Ruséian nation the abolition of Vod: is only to be compared witr the liber- ation of the serfs by Alexander II. in 1861. The fourth deed of the late Czar that is to be remembered to his everlasting credit whs his refusal to save his thfone by betraying his coun- tfy to her enemies. On the demand for his abaication his adviser gested that his one chahce Wi open the gates and 18t in the Qe fan army o clear oit the troubiesome auma. réfuged to adopt and the ighominy of saer.ficing his countsy to eave his o power Was reserved for the prince of the Bolsieviki; ‘.\iculaé Lenine.

The tawh of Feré-en-Tafdenois, the géo- gvaphical and military center of the whole salient is now occupiéd . by French and American troops. Through- but ‘the numerous patches of wdods that dot this entire r2gion, enermnous guantities of ammunition and suppiles thave been discovered which the Gef- mans in their hurried retreat were not able to remove or destroy. The amount of these stores indicates the unpreced- enied preparations that had been made for afinal rush that.was to prove in- vincible; the presence of the supplies and their distribution . along the-iront is proof that the Huns were in the poidt of delivering their great blow When Foch stfuck them. from the flank. It now appears cemtdin that there |is to beé no great capture of Germans fondly as unmilitary people have heped that the whole army might be bagged, Crown Prifice and all. This was real- ly tbo much to be expeécted for the military experts who direct Gerthany’s armies are not to be despised. By con- centrating infantry and artillery at the top cofners of the great bagz south- east of Soissons and southwest of Rheims, they have prevented its elosure while the troops at the bot- tom were being withdrawn as best they might. Full two-thirds of the salient has already been given up and the Aliies’ pressure cohtinues unabated despité the desperate fearguard ac- tions of the Gerihans and the whoie: dual units in the vain effort to pre- vent the progress of the pursuers. When Theodore Roosevelt made his famous round of the courts of Europe on his return from his African hunt- ing expedition subsequent to his-re- tirement frem the Presidency, he is said to have remarked, in describing the crowned heads of Burope, that were they in American politics not.one of them except the Kalser could have eagried his own ward: .Though this may have been a humorous exaggera- tion, the fact remains that Roosevelt appreciated the versatility and effici- ency of the German Emperor, and the Bmperor in turn undoubtedly admired the force of Roosevelt's own charaeter, his knowledge of what he wanted and his ability in getting it dohe his own way. Though Roosevelt has been un- lg&rlng in his condemnation of the aiger and all his works during the their old acquaintan¢é and mutual ad- miration that the body of young Lieut.
