THE czARss BOZ,

The Car has a son, and there are the
usual reports of great and general re-
ioicing, etc, etc. The talk is that the
good news will relieve the depression
which has been caused in Russia by the
Japanese victories. and that it will put
an end to many intrigues which have
been going on because there was no di-
rect heir to the Russian throne. There
has even been talk. that the birth Of a
son would dispose. the Gar to take
steps to end the war with Japan. If this
should happen the young man would
certainly be making an influential and
useful start in life. But even if he
lives perhaps his existence wont greatly
influence men and things for awhile. He
has got to be baby just as others
have to be, and though he viii be an inn
portant baby his Importance may be
easily overestimated. But whether he
lis destined to be Gear or not it is entire
ly proper to wish him good luck and
an easier life than his father has had,
and that there may be no bombs in it.
