NICHOLAS Ips OBJECT LESSON.
He Rides on 9 Street Car to Show His OF
icers That 1t Isn't a Disgrace.

He Rides on Street Car to Show His Of
icers That 1t Isn't Disgrace.
Nicholas II of Russia has had some
trouble in bending the stiff necked mill
tary etiquette of his St. Petersburg reg
iments to suit his rather liberal ideas.
He is not popular with the army, as
were the three Alexanders, despite his
gifts of reading rooms and dining halls
to crack regiments, and therefore the
innovations he recommends are intro
duced very slowly. Ever since he as
cended the throne, for instance, he has
been trying to discredit the notion that
an army officer may not ride with pro-
priety III common street car. The
army officer in ST. Petersburg has long
been supposed to be too rich and power
full and too far superior to civilians to
associate with the ordinary street car
crowd.
One Of the few untitled officers in the
Russian capital ventured few weeks
ago to ride in street car to his bar
racks. 1t was a presumptuous and
courageous act, for he had to alight be-
fore the crack cavalrymen's casino of
the city 1t proved to be very indis-
Greet act, too; for his fellow officers at
once took him to task for disgracing his
uniform, refused to listen to his cita-
lions of the czar's remarks on the sub
ject, and eventually, after days of per-
secution, began urging on him the pro-
priety of his resigning his commission.
In hi iuta no
turned to a friend i'll the ministry of
war, who brought the whole affair to
the czar's notice 1t was 4 o'clock
in the afternoon when Nicholas heard
the story. He at once put on a dark
suit, ordered his adjutant to do the
same, and together they went to the
spot where the prosecuted officer had
taken car. They boarded car, rode
on it to the barracks, alighted, boarded
returning car, and went back to the
palace. The car wrote out a brief ac-
count of this little trip, and added to it
the inquiry:
Am | still worthy to wear the uni
form of a Russian officer?'
He signed the document Nicholas, y
cuted officers regiment. Since then
there has been peace in the officers
quarters of that regiment, and the man
who rode on horse car has been treated
with the Difference belonging to one
who pulls wires at court.
Perhaps Nicholas got his idea of am
object lesson in this case from Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria. The emperor
heard several years ago that his officers
in Vienna were agitated over the aues-
ton of the propriety of riding in omni-
buses. He remarked impatiently that
this was a weighty subject for large
brains and should be settled before any
body's mind broke down under it. He
then put on full uniform, took with him
an adjutant III full uniform and had an
omnibus ride. The ride was reported in
the newspapers, and the question of
propriety was settled

Eye Poultices.

Do not poultice an eye under any cir
cumstances whatever. Binding a wet
application over an eye for several hours
must damage that eye, the assertions of
those protesting to have personal expert
ence in this to the contrary notwith-
standing. The failure to aggravate an
existing trouble by binding moist APP
plication over an inflamed eye, which
application is supposed to remain for an
entire night, can only be explained by
the supposition that guardian angel
has watched over that misguided case
and has displaced the poultice before it
had got in its fine work All oculists
condemn the poultice absolutely in ev-
cry shape and in every form. Tea leaves,
bread and milk, raw oysters, scraped
beef, scraped raw turnip or raw potato
and the medley of disgusting domestic
remedies popularity recommended are,
one and all, capable of producing ire
