attacked and were forced to retreat.
On the following night the position OF

At the first cry of complaint from the
Poles, who. loved their mother tongue

Gourko detailed bands OF brutal Co.'S

Car is sick here in his palace; and Cen
eral Gourko is reported to be dying in
Warsaw. The bulletins, announcing
the condition Of the monarch's health,
are not moro eagerly read than those
that tell from day to day the progress
Of the disease that is carrying the sub
ject to the grave. Wherever Gourko's
name is mentioned, one hears loud e1-
pressions OF admiration for the soldier
and regret for his approaching end; but
there is far more meaning in the whis-
perings of hate and the looks OF delight,
with which others regard the near de-
mise of one whom, with reason, they
regard as heartless tYrant.
Joseph NaSsilyevitch GourSo was
born in 1928, in the "Ourkraina," or
borderlaud between Russia aud Old
Poland. His family was Lithuanian,
and for generations had intermarried
with the Poles, fact which 81 first, led
the people whom he was to rule over TO
believe that, as Governor OF Poland, he
would be more lenient than his prede-
cessors.
Like every other boy OF good family,
in this country and at that time,
Gourko from infancy was des-
tined for the army. The influence
of his family was sufficient to gain him
admission TO the Institute OF the lmpe-
rial Corps OF Pages at ST. Petersburg.
This Institute is the most aristecratic
school in the Empire, the senior cadets
being detailed in turn, TO do duty as
pages to the Car. The social advan-
tages OF such position are great, and
the youth, who. as a page, succeeds in
attracting the favorable notice OF the
monarch finds when he enters the army
that service in the field is not the great
essential 20 Advancement
In 1916, young Gouko secured the
commission of coronet 10 the Imperial
Hussars of the Guard, tho crack regi-
ment n the Russian Service. Among
the officers OF his body is always TO be
found a number OF Grand Dukes, mem
bers of the Imperial family, who are
naturally very particular as TO the new
members admitted. At the time OF
Gourko's entering the army, the lmper-
ial residence, for some months every
wear, was at Tsarkoe Seloe, which was
also the headquarters OF the Hussars, q
fact that enabled the young officer to
continue the royal acquaintance, and to
emphasize as soldier, the favorable
impresslon he bad made as page.
