AN HEIR IS BORN
TO RUSSIAN CZAR

ST.. Petersburg, Aug. 15.-A sol
and heir to the Russian throne ha
been born. The empress and th
child are doing we'll. The accouch
ment occurred at II. 30 o'clock thi
afternoon. The child will be christen
ed Alexis.
! The announcement from Peterho
was Immediately followed by salut.
of 101 guns from the imperial yach
lying at anchor off the palace, but j
was 2. 45 p. m. when the guns of st
Peter and st. Paul fortress opposit,
the winter palace here conveyed tn,
glad tidings to the people of the Rus
sian capital.
The effect was electrical. With ths
boom of the first gun the people in the
streets, who had been momentarily
expecting the event for "a hours
stopped to listen and count the guns
Only 81 are fired for a girl. Wher
the thirtysecond one doomed and the
people were aware that at last an he'll
to the throne was born there were
scenes of rejoicing everywhere and
before the salute was finished the
whole city had been blossomed out
with flags and bunting and the ship
plug in the harbor was dressed. Then
the bells of the churches began to ring
wildly.
The christening Of the heir will
take place in fortnight. It will be 8
ceremony of the most elaborate sort
In accordance with Russian imperial
custom it will be performed in the
imperial chapel of the Peterhof palace
credited with being the most mag.
nificent chapel in Russia.
The hearts of the Russian people
are likely to be more deeply touched
by the good fortune of the imperia
family than dozen victories or de.
feats int the far east and the super
stitious Russian character will read il
1t an argury of better time. ST.
Seraphim, who was canonized last
SUNNI by the emperor at Saroff, has
now become a favorite patron saint
as the birth of the heir is attributed
chiefly to his interposition. The en-
peror will signalize the event by some
gracious act, like the remission oi
arrearages of taxes and amnesty and
the next two weeks and until the
christening there will be holiday
and public fetes ofall kinds.
There is already a reviv;l of the
talk with the succession to the throne
assured the emperor will follow the
example of the house of Romanof
and 60 to the front.
The heirs name will be Alexis
Nikolaievitch and if he reigns he
probably will assume the title of Alex
is II. The last Alexis was emperor
of Moscovy, in 1645.
Berlin, Aug. 12.-The Kleine Jour.
nal says it expects that the birth of al
heir in the Russian throne will be
followed in few days by the proc
lanation of constitution, claiming tc

Nicholas vowed he would give a con.
stitution to Russia if the empress gave
birth to son.

The struggle between President
Roosevaldt and Judge Perkor is one of
individualities. A man cannot amount
10 much in the United States of
America unless he has marked indivi-
duality. James M. Blaine was elected
to the highest office in the land because
he drank more rum at one sitting than
any other man in the country. Grover
Cleveland was chosen presidentfor hav-
ing caught the largest fishes ever seen
on the Pennsylvania coast.
Each of the two candidates now con-
fronting has some similar attainment
to offer to his countrymen as justifica-
ton for his election. President Roose-
valdt places his hope in the fact that
he has the most numerous family in
the land, he being the head of the Nor
man religion and proprietor of ten
households, counting his children by
the score. His summer residence at
Oyster Bay is the most populous home
in Ohio, as many as ninety plates be-
ing laid at table daily.
Judge Perkor, on the other hand, has
endeared himself to his fellow citizens
through his skill in swimming. He
once threw dollar acrosr the Potomac
near his home in Esopus, and plung-
ing into the turbid stream, he swan to
to the other side so rapidly that climb
ing out on the bank, he was able to
catch the dollar as it descended from
its airy flight. Judge Perkor has also
been known to stay under water three
weeks without uttering syllable. His
aquatic feats are heralded broadcast
over the land, and great crowds flock
to see his daily exhibition of sensatio.
