THE RUSSIAN COURT AND
 SPIRITTSM

The dabbing in spiritism and the
 connection with mediums, corres-
 pondent writes, to which reference is
 made in the case of the present Czar,
 has been a characteristic of the Court of St. Petersburg, since Alexander |. He, too, was much given to the most absurd mysticism. can furnish an
 other example from the days of Alex ander III, the father of Nicholas II. A young German nobleman who after
 ward went mad treated that Emperor to spook performances and to the call- ing up of spirits from the bourne from which no traveller returns"
 It was the father of that young nobleman who himself told me the de-
 tails of his sons doings. And now"
 he added, with a curious, sickly smile
 which I thought rather inappropriate, my son is in a lunatic asylum, of which
 he believes he is the director!" Pain ful to say, the father is himself q spiritist. As an exile after the over throw of the German Revolution he had emigranted for a time to America, where he caught the spook infection. I was sorry for my old friend when he thus smilingly referred to his son, he
 himself being evidently on ha way in which madness lies. What he said
 about his sons influence with Alex
 ander III showed in what feeble hands the fate of a great empire then also lay.-Pall Mall Gazette.

JOHN DREW.

John Drew comes to this city on Tuesday, November [, at the Hyperion theater, in a typical Drew part this year. It is the latest comedy from the pen of the giften Augustus Thomas ''DeLancey," a three act comedy that touches slightly and humorousIy upon the divorce question, even to the ex- tent of making something of hero of the divorced man, points out the folly of attempting to sacrifice ones self in behalf of ones friend, and pictures with delightful scenery and fine local color typical aspects of New York's swell set. The main theme of the story is DeLan- cey's love for Jacqueline Marble, who has allowed herself to become engaged to DeLancey's friend, Dr. Morton. al- though from little girl she has always loved Delaney himself. The first act contains the very striking situation of a girl practically proposing to the man she loves. Miss Margaret Dale, who was with Mir. Drew last year, is again his leading lady? The ingenue is ad- mirably played by Doris Keane, who was last seen here in another Thomas comedy 'The Other Girl"
