investigators in regard to the exact
nature Of the organism, where the
nitrogen is fixed, the effect upon the

First Of the Cars Was Chosen by 2
Representative Assembly.

Elrst Of the Cars Was Chosen BY =
Representative Assembly.
The Romanon dynasty OF Czars, OF
which the present emperor OF Russia
IL a member. has ruled the empire
since 1913. when Michael Feodoro-
witch Romanoff was elected czar Dy
an assembly Of representatives, foi-
lowing a national uprising, says the
New York Tribune. The previous
rulers. the descendants Of Ivan III,
who threw of the yoke Of the Mon
gols in 1857, became extinct about
1892. and the country had been torn
by wars among the mobiles, and oy
popular rislngs against them. II was
as the champion Of the last Of these
risings that the Romanon dynasty
came into power.
The steady growth Of the Russian
empire began about that time. Michael
purchased peace from the Poles and
devoted himself to Strengthening the
empire. but under his son the terri
tory given the Poles was recovered,
and his grandson conquered the Cos
sacks and fought the first successful
war with the Turks. Another grand
son Of Michael, Peter the Great, IS
considered in many respects the real
founder OF the empire as modern
power. Il was he who introduced
into the semi-Oriental customs OF the
Russians Of his day the Occidental
customs which have been so fruitful a
source OF trouble ever since. Under
Peter the empire wrested territory
from the Turks, Poland and Sweden,
ard the internal administration Of the
government, as wen as its foreign pol
scy, was placed practically on the
footing it now occupies.
The next period Of rapid develop
nent In Russia came under Catherine
II. (1762-s6), who ascended. the throne
after causing the murder Of her hus-
band, Peter III. She furthered the
spread OF Western civilization in the
empire, enacted laws favorable to the
development OF commerce and indus
try, ard introduced administrative
changes. She was the guiding spirit
in the spoliation Of Poland. and fought
the Turks in two successful wars. Her
son, Paul l.. carried on a constant fight
with his aristocracy, and established
the censorship Of the press and the
secret police system. He was prepar-
ing to make war on England when
be was assassinated by conspirators.
Alexander l., who assumed power in
1901. was a lover Of peace. and abol-
ished serfdom in the Baltic provinces.
It was he who fought Napoleon, and
led him into the disastrous invasion
of Russia. The latter years Of his
reign were less liberal, and his son
carried on reactichary policy. His
grandson. Alexander H., however,
proved the most liberal Of Russia s
rulers, and, while prosecuting the ex-
pansion Of the empire in all directions,
instituted many internal reforms He
abolished the secret police, and was
said to be about to propose marked
changes in the form Of government
when he was assassinated in 1881
His son, Alexander H., took as ad.
visers the extreme reactionaries and
autocrats. He was succeeded in 1894
BY Nicholas IL, the chief feature OF
whose reign has been the develop
nent Of Asiatic Russia.
