Make the first floor and roof of the
present building tireproof; make: the hoI-

out of the building; overhaul the. electric
wires; repair and reipaint the structure.

The czarina has been a victim Of profound
and growing melancholy since her hope
OF becoming a mother again was dashed
two months ago. To add to her despair
n noted physician of Vienna. who has
made a study Of her ancestors, has re-
ported that for some hundreds Of years
the women Of her stock have been greatly
in the preponderance; that the mothers
have had families chiefly composed of
daughters. Her woeful countenance and
her bsent-m indedness to the point Of
gloomy silence In the company OF others
have strengthened the belief in the rumor
that the car is seriously thinking OF
taking the advice Of high church dlgni-
.taries to divorce her in order that he may
marry a woman whose children will not
all be daughters.
The czarina is the mother of four chill
dren, all girls. She thought she had one
more chance Of regaining the good will
OF the Russian people by presenting the
car with a son this autumn, but she was
to the bitterest disappointment.
People outside Of his country cannot
comprehend the eagerness of the Rus
SLAMS for an heir TO the throne, as no
woman can reign in Russia while the male
line holds out. One powerful reason for
wishing a son born to the cZar is to have
a peaceful succession. 1t is feared that the
cars rather frail brother, now heir pre-
sumptive. may. not live long and that IL
passes away without an heir the
empire may be rent by strife for throne
between his four uncles.
