overlooking the sea, are the villas of the
imperial family and of various mobiles, rar
est among them being that of Prince Wor-
OnZoff, at Alupka, a stately, beautiful
mansion, half English and half Oriental.
The way to Livadia is by Yalta, which
the Russian poets have always called the
Jewel Of Russia" Its beauties inspired
Pushkin to some of his best verse. Yalta
lies abou& parallel with Balaclava, but on
the right side of the Crime;., toward the
southeast. 1t was. not SO very long ago,
modest little seaside place enough. Now
the proximity of the imperial villa has
transformed it into Russian Cannes,
where the fashionable world of St. Pc
tersburg makes It's winner habltation. 1t
lies right in the lap of the Black sea,
whose blackneSS hereabOutS is blue and
whose manners are reasonably EuNlne.
Behind it slope the hills which shelter it
from the rigor of the north. From Yal-
ia, drive-like a grander and a wilder
Corniche, which runs between this blue
sea and rising tiers of gardens and vine
yards-takeS you past the Grand Duke

this. for he was resentful. Alexander II.
was a Western He coquetted with
France and Germany. His son hated
both countries, and also hated theories.
When, in 1881, the Gar fell Il victim
to the intrigues of his brother COnsteD-
tine and was murdered. it was due largely
to the energy Of Vladimir, who then COM
manded the Imperial guards, that Alex
ander Ill. assembled the throne, and q
palace revolution did not place the crown
on Constantine's head. For this reason
Alexander has forgiven his brother many
acts of robbery and debauchery. On the
throne he remained the chief of the Sla-
vonic party. But he was practical and
did not advocate any of those wild
schemes which his friends wished him to
carry out. He had commanded an army
in the RussoTurkish war, and knew
something OF the terrors of warfare He
was. therefore, ohstinately in favor of
peace. Besides, much rs he respected the
religious and intriguing fanatic Pobe-
donostzeH, the Empress hated this man.
and SO the fanatic never quite got the up
per hand. Alexander III had Il certain
KIND of cunning, which stupid men pos
sess, and did not mind increasing the
power of Russia by the arts of diplomacy.
when his cunning failed him, as in the
case of Bulgaria, he had the common
sense to swallow his pride and did not
proceed to bloodshed. This was his great
merit. Otherwise he was an Indifferent
and lazy monarch, who governed Russia
by means of favorites. He picked them
up wherever he could find them, and
prided himself on his faculty of discov-
ering genius In this respect he had some
thing of Napoleon about him.
Lazy and a High Liver
But all the talk of his great industry is
nonsense He spent most of his time
sleeping, eating and drinking This was
the cause OF his disease. He did not tn lie
sufficient exercise. When his ministers
presented him with projects Of law he
would retire to his study and go to sleep
over them. He also hated expense. The
furniture in the palaces is III disgraceful
state of untdinesS because he grudged
the money for repairs In his dress also
he was untidy, and his Wallets had the
greatest difficulty in turning him out cred
itably
He was an honest and a moral man,
who tried to do his duty, who was brave
and did not fear death, and who. if he
could, would have done IL great deal of
good; but he had not the originality of
character to rise superior to his advisers.
and he was intensely jealous of his i'm
perial authority. Six foot three in height,
weighing 80 pounds, the Emperor looked
like giant. He had small eyes, straight.
hard eyebrows. a small forehead. Il fair
beard and a coarse mouth. In appear
ance he was not unlike the peasants he

NOT ENOUGH CONFEDERATION.
Judge Shaw Denies Mira. Mansfield r
Divorce and Gives His Reasons.

Judge Shaw Denies Mira. Mansdeid r
Divorce and Gives His Reasons.
J1dge Shaw yesterday declined to
grant divorce to Mrs. Fannie A. Mans
tisld from Harry S. Mansfield, indulg-
ing in some straight talk on the subject
Of corroborative evidence.
Mrs. Mansfield asked for divorce on
| the ground that her husband had failed
to support her. 1t wss default case.
The couple lived in Kansas about
three years ago. Mr.. Mansfield then
went to Mexico, where his wife followed,
and they lived together for over year.
She testified that he wac improvident,
failed TO get work. and by reason OF his
habits and disposition, could not keep
position when hs was fortunate enough
to secure one. She had to make living
by keeping dodgers and boarders, aud
finally left him and came to Los An
gele1.
The only corroboration OF her testi-
mony was that of her mother, who tes-
titled that she had lived in the city for
several years past; that her daughter
came 10 her from Mexico, when she left
her husband, and has lived with her
ever ence, Mr.. Mansfield not having
furnished her with any support.
Judge Shaw did not consider that this
was sufficient confederation. He holds
that husband is under no obligations
to provide for the support of his vile if
che voluntarily sbandons him. He was
not guilty OF wiliiul neglect unless the
separation was caused by some fault OF
his, which justified her in separating
from him MIs Mansfield's "a testimony
showed that she had good cause for
leaving her husband, but on that point
there was no corroboration. In ruling
Judge Shaw saya:
"In the case at bar every fact to which
the plaintiff has certified and upon
which she ia corroborated, may be true
and still she may not be entitled to a
divorce. And if the plaintiff could get
divorce with no more corroboratlon
than exists in the csse, then all that
would be necessary in order to obtain
divorce would be for the party to abandon
his or her spouse. live separate for a
year, and then on his or her own testi-
mony with corroboration as to the fact
of failure to provide for that year, go
into court OF law and ask that
divorce be granted. This woud open
the door to coiusion still wider than it
is ct present as generally understood,
and would certainly be contrary TO the
intention and purpose of that section Of
the code which requires confederation"
The court. however, on the ground
that Mrs. Mensfeld may obtain other
corroborative evidence, continued the
case, with leave for her to introduce fur
ther testimony.

POLICE COURT CASES.

| What Justics Seaman Thought About
Some Things.
August Waenierre and Emil Lang
roguet were before Justice Seaman yes.
terday on charge of petty larceny. 1t
was stated that they had stolen some
redwood lumber from Mr.. Swanson's
yards. The wood was found under
Wegnierre's house and there was no
question that it had originally helped
TO make q similar pile at Mr. Swanson's.
The only point in dispute waa as to who
had taken it. Yesterday Langroguet
testified that he had appropriated the
lumber unknown to Wagnierre, for
whom he was working, and secreted it
under the latter's houee. The latter
was discharged and Lsngroguet was
hold to answer today.
James Foley was alleged to be vag.
James told Justice Seaman that he had
until Iecentiy been employed by lady
on Commercial street, making tamales.
He was found guilty, however, and will
be sentenced today. When called to
plead yesterday James was fast asleep
in the chair, and it was only after sew
eral shakes by Clerk Appel that he was
sroused. However, James can probably
get more tired in the chain gang.
Pierre Debeuyle. a Frenchmsn, was
also charged with being vag. 1t seems
there was time once when Pierre did
no manner of work, but that time 10
past for Pierre took o tumble unto him
self, and, bidding farewell to his friends
OF both sexes, went to Santa Monica
and engaged in the reHtanrant business.
He has not been idle since his removal,
as he was able. through his partner. to
put up $50 deposit for his appearance on
the 18Th, when he will be tried, the
court having little curiosity to know
just why he pleaded not guilty yester-
day.
S. o. Parker was held to answer in
the superior court to the charge OF
f,rgery.
All Toy, Joe Wong aud All Hang,
three honorable Mongolian gentlemen,
charged with disturbing the peace of the
law-abiding citizens in Ferguson's alley.
were found guilty, and will be sentenced
today.
E. NJ. Myer, the tall blonde dorkey
who runs the crap" game on Fret
street, Withdrew his plea of not guilty
OF conducting this business, and entered
the plea of guilty. He was told he
might contribute $50 toward the expense
account of the city, and was given until
TODAY to do go.
