Czar,s Loxs of Simplicity.

A characteristic story is told Of the
Car of Russia's love of simplicity. y
certain lieutenant who was in perpet-
ual state of impecuniosity was one day
seen riding in tram. The other Off.
GERS of the regiment were furious at
what they called an insult to the uni
form, and intimated to the culprit that
he had the option Of either sending in
his papers OF being cashiered, and the
unlucky subaltern chose the former al
tentative. Before he had time to do
so, however, the Car heard of the af-
fair, and without moments delay
donned his colonel's uniform Of the
regiment in question and, sauntering
out Of his palace, hailed a tram and,
entering it, sat calmly down till It
stopped in front Of the barracks. He
desired the officers to be called, and
when they were assembled addressed
them thus: Gentlemen, l have just
ridden from the palace in tram, and
1 wish to know il you desire me to
send in my papers. l f"'"sume / have
disgraced my uniform. gig" re-
piled the major nervously, Ma
jesty could never do that" - rul
replied the Car, with an amuseu
smile. "as have not degraded the uni
form, Lieutenant D. cannot have done
so, and will thus retain his commits.
sion in this regiment, even if he, like
me, dares to ride in q tram."
