DYNASTY OF RoMANoFF.
Ruling Family OF Russia Has Pro.
duced Many Strong Men.

E -
Ruling Family OF Russia Has Pro-
duced Many Strong Men.
The reigning family Of Russia dates
back to 1873. when Michael Fedrovitz
the first of the house of Romanoff, as,
cended the throne. For a span OF
seven centuries the Russians had been
under the rule of the Ruric dynasty.
Feodor l, the last of the Rurics, was
assassinated.f and that gave the Ro-
rnanoffs the chance they had sought.
Michael Feodorvitz reigned until his
death in 1852 and was succeeded by
Ivan and Peter l. who came to be
known III history as Peter the Great
Seven years later Peter became sole
sovereign. At the time of his death, In
1925, the Russian court was divided in
to two powerful parties. The one de-
manded that the crown should go to
Peter, the son of Alexis. brother of Pc
ter the great, who had been put to
death by his own brothers decree. The
other faction called for the crowning
of Catherine, widow of Peter the Great
The latter finally triumphed, but her
reign was brief, for she died within two
years. Before her death she nominated
Peter, the son Of Alexis, to be her sue
cessor. In 1870 he was deposed and the
crown given to Anne of Courland,
daughter of Peter the Great and Cath
crime. In Peter III the male line of the
Romanoffs became extinct, but the
name was preserved through the access
sion of Anne of Courland, who was the
mother of the unfortunate Peter III.
Peter III was dethroned and assassi-
mated in 1852. He was succeeded by
his widow, Catherine II (the Great.
She reigned until 1885, On her death in
that year she was succeeded by Paul.
who became a maniac and was assassi
mated in 1901. Alexander was crowned
and his reign continued until his death
in 1925.
The next in the line of accession was
Nicholas /. For 30 years he ruled over
the Russians and saw one Of the
stormist of all periods of the country's
history. He was succeeded by Alexander
III in, 1856.
The reign of Alexander III was full of
vicissitudes. The nihilists had become
emboldened and, though he freed the
serfs, yet throughout his reign agita-
tors wer plotting his death. In 1880 a
dynamite bomb was exploded under
the royal dining room, and the only
reason the Gar and all the royal fami-
ly were not killed was because they
happened to be few minutes later
than usual for. dinner
A year later Alexander II was assas-
sinated. A nihilist threw bomb under
his carriage, tearing him to pieces.
His successor, Alexander III, was
marked by the nihilists several times
for assassination, but all of their
plots failed. Many of them were sent
to the mines of Siberia for life and
others put to death.
The present Car came to the throne
in 1894. Nicholas III is the eldest SON of
Alexander III. He was porn in 1868.
Just 26 days after he was crowned Car
of all the Russians he welded Princess
Alix of Hesse. Only few months ago
a son and heir was born to the reign
ing family amid the great popular re-
joicing.

Henry Arthur Jones great play 1.-THE
Middleman," made particularly famous
by q. S. Willard, opened a three
night and matinee engagement at the
New Haven theater last evening with
Louis j. Russell in the role of Cyrus
Blenkarn. The audience was of con-
siderable proportions, and those who
braved the zero weather saw one of
the best productions which has been at
this popular playhouse for many
months. ..*'.
'"The Middleman' is In itself strong
play, full of emotional, stirring features
which cause the audiences to rise to
the heights of ecstacy and enthusiasm
and then dashed to the DEPTHS of de-
spair by the sudden and remarkable
transitions, all occasioned by the good
or ill fortune of old Cyrus Blenkarn.
The dramatic episodes are particularly
placed in the second and third acts
and in Mr.. Russell we have an actor
fully qualified with the voice, physique
and manner to essay the very difficult
role of the old man, bent and gray
with age yet determined that he will
find the secret of glasing, which will
yield him immense wealth. He is total
ly lost to the outer world by his expert
ments, which from time To- time con-
tinue to be unsuccessful, but he is at
last rewarded for his diligence and per-
severance.
Mr.. Russell was exceptionally strong
in the more difficult passages and
scenes and was most enthusiastically
received by the audience. No better
tribute can be made than that he gave
an Interpretation eminently satisfac-
tory and markedly resembling his fam
Gus predecessor. H. -.
The supporting company is capable
to the degree essential to complete the
production and the scenic effects are
very fine.
"The Middleman" with Mr. Russell
and company will be repeated at the
New Haven theater this and to-mor-
row evening and, Saturday matinee.
The Original Lilliputians'' will pre-
sent the musical extravaganza Sinbad
at the New Haven Theater the first
three nights next week, with matinee
Wednesday. The New Haven Journal
says of the production:
A delighted audience was that which
turned away from the Grand Opera
House last evening after witnessing the
spectacular musical extravaganza, Sin
bad" in which the Royal Lilliputians
play the leading part. On the whole
the entertainment was one of the best,
if not the best, seen at the popular AL
bert street playhouse this season, and
it's merits We're fully appreciated by the
large audience. "sinbad" possesses a
feast of fun and humor, a flow of music
