KARL FULL OF DARING. The ex-Emperor Karl was a gallant gentleman who refused to sit down tamely under these conditions but was ready to dare everything to regain a throne. He wus not endowed with brains, but the most successful Kings have often been those who have their thinking done tor them by other peo- ple. He had what is far more useful, & Hood presence. a iity and a very clever wife.

Pleas give the necessary orders,” and on this von Grunow said: ‘Sir, it is my duty to tell you that your life would not be safe with your own soldiers."’ The Kaiser turned to the color of ashes and fell back in his chair. Suddenly he had become a very old man without any power of de- cision or movement. The shock had been too much for him. After a hasty consultation it was de- cided that, with the growing spirit of rebellion that prevailed, even among the troops connected with the General Staff, the Kaiser must be got into a place of safety at all hazards. A motor car was brought to the door and von Grunow himself helped him out of his chair and conducted him to the vehicle. The Kaiser was like a little child a ere tee ——— Rasputin was the most ‘protected"’ person In Russia, He was said to be watched over by two German detec- tives, a detective appointed by A group of bankers, and an imperial detective who was responsible for his personal safety. The little group which was resolved apon his death believed that they were under the di- rection of a higher power because everything fitted in so perfectly and easily with their design, Rasputin cemed positively to cultivate the so- ciety of Youssoupoy, who called upon him a day or two before Christmas and sald that he was about to leave for the Crimea to spend Christmas there, and that as Rasputin had never set foot in his house he had come to invite him to drink tea with him that evening: he would consider ft the greatest honor, Rasputin did mot demur at all, He said, laughingly, at oh would tell the detectives he was going to bed and that they we free for the evening, and he invited Youssoupov to call for him in his car at the back door in order to give the slip to any detective who might re main on duty In Prince Youssoupov's house there was a dining room in the basement From this a winding staircase led the first floor, with a landing half way giving into the hall house, Rasputin was conducted this dining room, where bottles of Ma- deira and port were set out, The con- spirators had previously obtained rom a chemist a drug known in Rus- Nanistt! kali,” which sian as“ said to have a very quick action on the h t and to be tasteless when taken in wine They sat down at the table and Youssoupoy plied Rasputin with the wine, ‘There was nothing in tis, for Rasputin, Hike most Russian! peas ants, had a strong head and was always ready for earousal.

There was now no time to lose, Sev- eval things had to be done, A dog had to be found and shot and laid exactly in the position of Rasputin's body in order that the blood marks on the snow might be taken for the blood of the dog. Scarcely had this been done when the Grand Duke's car arrived. In Russia Grand ducal cars used to carry a flag on the hood which ex empted them from being stopped by the police, Together they carried the body into the car, took it to the bridge and dropped it into the frozen Neva, Stop Laxatives Which Only Aggravate Constipation Nujol is a lubricant—not a medicine or laxative— ko cannot gripe.
