Amid such scenes of Homeric simplicity
Elena's childhood caught no forecast Of
the more artificial life and pomp of royal
circumstance awaiting her a few years
later. Nevertheless, the patriareha1 court
of this Slavic eyrie had its code and ira
dftional order, which the Princess Nilena
enforced with a faithfulness admitting no
derogation of the dignity accordant with
the household of a ruler.
The exceptional character Of Milena has

not only had a mO.ding influence upon
her children, but is felt throughout the
principality. In 1868 Nicolas appointed her
regent during his winter visit to Russia
and her wisdom and administrative tact
won the approval Of even the most con-
serVative of the old chiefs, who were in
clined to regard woman in power as an
anomaly and a rutnous innovation She
subsequently held the regency during ev-
cry episode of the princes absence, until
Danilo, the heir, was mature enough for
such responsibilities.
In former times it was common saying
that Slavic women were born only to toll
and to suffer. This no Longer. applies to
Montenegro since the reforms of the pro-
gress1Ve Nicolas, who has led his people
on the upward road to Improvement for
thirty-nine years. The school for Young
girls established in his reign, under the
auspices of the czarina, called the Jenslxi

In 1885 Elena took leave of her home
and Travelled to st. Petersburg, where she
was placed in the Smolna institute, tho
famous seminary for girls, under the spe-
cial patronage of the empress. Her four
elder sisters had been sent there in turn.

AT THE RUSSIAN COURT.
The Montenegrin' Processes were all
persona grata at the Russian court and
they participated in its gayeties and
splendid ceremonial under the guardian
ship of the inaperiaE family. In 1888 the
Princess MILITIA became the wife of the
an imperial hghness, and accorded ths
Grand Duke Ptetro Nicolaievitch, nephew
Of Alexander I'll, and has since resided in
Peterhof. In the same year were cele-

Zorka, the eldest of the sisters, died
shortly after her union with Prince Peter
Karageorgevitch, pretender to the throne

the Montenegrins from complications
with the bitter feuds that are continually
distracting the disorderly little Servian
kingdom.
The story of the Princess Elena at
Petersburg has yet to be written, and ru-

Montenegrin capital, Cettinje, in her
fathers plain white wooden residence,
generally dignified by the name of pal

and low frame houses, reminded a recent
traveller of mining towns in the Rockies
of Colorado. Nestled amid the black,
barren mountains it is, even at this late
day of ubiquitous improvements" only
reached by rough trip in the diligence.
Starting from the sea port Cattaro,
which hides at the base of steep heights
at the head of the bay, the road. begins
with nearly perpendicular course, skirts
the edge of precipices along an inter-
minable series of sharp zig-zags de-
scrlbing short curves, and finally climbs
over the mountain shoulder to descend
on the other side and end upon the
plateau before the doors of Cettinje
This road is triumph of engineering
skill, and it's completion in 1880 was one
of the great events in Elena's childhood.
Before that time it was a matter of peril
and hardship to cross these rugged
heights; the armies attempting it won
lew victories and failed of conquest, re-
firing repeatedly throughout 600 years
OF persistent effort. driven back by the
double resistance of mountains and noun

CHILDHOOD OF THE PRINCESS.
A Swiss governess, Mile Neukot. was
secured for the little Elena, and daily
lessons in French, German and other
branches, besides training in domestic
accomplishments, trained the young prin-
cess to habits of industry and applIca ton:
Prince Nicolas always exercised a per-

and his father, Prince Mirko the famous
warrior, known as the Sword of Crna-
CORA delighted in writing songs when
resting from his favorite occupation of
fighting the Turks.
Both Elena and her younger brother.
Mirko, have inherited this taste. We
hear of her IN St. Petersburg publishing
graceful Slavic verse and melodious
French lines in the Russian review Ma
dalia, and sometimes adopting the fan
tastic pseudonym blue Butterfly" or
"Azurin."
The Montenegr3n dialect is the purest
of all the numerous Slavic idioms and
