Princess Elizabeth Of Hesse, is an elder
sister of the czaritsa.
The Grand Duke Vladimir, also an
uncle of the cars, is permanent COM
mander-in-chief of the Russian army.
He is intimately identified with ths
war party, although neither expansion
list nor politician He has had much
to do with the management of the Red
Cross funds, a subject which is taboo
in ST. Petersburg He is also the faith
er of the Grand Dukes Cyril and Boris.
of whom the former won a medal for
valor for saving his own life from the
wreck of the PetropavlOvsk, and the
latter greatly distinguished himself by
his unquenchable endeayorS to instruct
Gen KurOpatkin in the conduct OF the
Manchurian operations. They are both,
in addition, fine, handsome young men
about town, bon viveurs, and, in all
senses, chips of the old block
The Grand Duke Nicholas Nicolaie-
witch, who was frequently mentioned
as likely to supersede Gen. Kuropatkin
in the command of the Manchurian
army, has held aloof alike from the
worlds of intrigue and politics He is
the tallest officer in the Russian army
and an excellent judge of horse His
military capacity is somewhat of an
unknown quantity. although he served
as aide-de-camp in the RusSO-Turkish
war Most of his time is spent on his
country estate, and he is a fair type Of
an English country gentleman of a cen,
! fury ago.
The Grand Duke Constantine is the
most intellectual and cultivated of the
cars uncles. He is a poet Of consid-
cradle talent, an enthusiastic patron
of literature and the drama, and has
erected theater in his privte palace.
In sense, the grand dukes form
remarkable group of men They prac-
tically control the destinies of 1870 ,00O.-
600 of people. They bear among them
the burthen of a responsibility suffi-
cient to appall the most commanding
genius. 1t is matter of deep regret
that even the optimiSt cannot credit
a single blood relation of his imperial
majesty, the car, with the exceptional
qualities indispensable for coping with
and mastering the crisis which Russia
is so rapidly approaching

which has already acquired historical
nOtOriety.
The Grand Duke AleXanders influ-
ence with the car is paramount His
counsel is strengthened and confirmed
by his wife the Grand Duchess Xenia,
the cars elder and favorite sister. She
is devoted to her husband, and both in
Temperament and manner bears great

unjust to deny the Grand Duke Alex

report may be credited, his imperial
dislike for England is not far removed
from plebian Anglophobia. 1t is even
said that. although his children were
taught English by their governesS, they
were not allowed to reply to her IN
that language. To sum up the grand
dukes character, he may be described
as an ardent nationalist OF mediocre
ability, with a highly developed strain
of the company promoter. AS presi-
dent of the directorate Of the Black sea
volunteer fleet, he stoutly upheld the
amiable sOphiStrieS of those genial
freebooters, and, in consequence, came
to loggerheads with the cars uncle,
the Grand Duke Alexis, high admiral
of the feet. The latter is an easy-gO-
ing. good-natured bachelor, whose po-
litical philosophy may be epitomized
in the words anything for a quiet
life" He is an ardent lover of the fine
arts in general, and, in particular, is
an earnest student of the ballet. In
this pursuit his generosity is proverb-
ial and in a late instance amounted,
if is said, to a donation Of 100000.
In principle the Grand Duke Alexis
was opposed to the war in Japan, but,
bevond a mild protest, he made no
practical effort to prevent it. 1t came
as something of a surprise that the
Grand Duke Alexis should have cast
aside his wonted apathy when the Ma
lacca affair was attaining critical dl-
mansions. Without his support, there is
little doubt that the pacific party, head
% bv the foreign Office, would have
been overruled by the Grand Duke
Alexander and the inevitably truculent
and .belIicose chiefs of the admiralty
Much covert blame has been imputed
To the Grand Duke Alexis in connec7
tion with the defective condition OF the
Russian navy. He has been held re-
sponsible for the poor equipment OF
the ships, their inferior armament ana
their incompetent manning. In point

Birth of the Moon

Year by year the moon is getting q
few inches more distant, and reversing
the argument, year by year, in the great
past, the moon was Learer to us. Prof
George Darwin has shown that long,
long ago the moon revolved close to the
earth, and still earlier formed part of
this globe From that time TO the pres
ent he calculates at least 81, 000, 900 years
must have elapsed. The birth of the
moon took place, therefore, somewhere
about that date in the past Sir Robert
Ball observed that when the moon was
near to us its attraction must have pro-
duced enormous tides, many times
greater than those that wash our shores
to-day. and he suggested that these
tides, by their powerful erosions and
wasting of the land. accelerated the
geological forces and so reduced the
tremendous periods which the biologists
have demanded.-Lendon Telegraph

DIFFICULT TRANSLATION.
How a Missionary on the Congo River
Complies His Grammar and
Dictionary.

When the American Bible society de-
cides that a new race shall have BIZ
BILE of it's own, a grant of money is
made and The first steps toward trans
latiOn are begun.
Let us suppose the recipient of such
a grant is Rev. Mr. Smith, of some re-
mote cannibal village on the Kongo
river in Central Africa, says a writer
in Everybody's. There he is; he has
only just arrived Not one word of
the gibberish around him does he I'M
derstand; and the natives may say the
9ame Of his tongue. The first thing to
do is to build his house; and even
while he is building it he has his note
book and pencil in one hand and his
trowel or brick or plank of wood
in the other.
The first phrase he gets to know is
what is this?" or What is that?"
These questions he fires off at his
assistants at all hours of the day and
night has them repeated again and
again, and carefully notes down their
phonetic equivalents. This is the
nucleus of a kind of dictionary and
grammar combined, and this tedious
work goes on simultaneously with the
building operations and the general
work of winning the confidence of the
natives, perhaps for a year or two
By that time the vocabulary is pretty
complete, and Mr. Smith begins on the
work for which he. has all this time
been preparing himself
AS the greatest work Of the Amer
lean Bible society has, been done in
China, it seems fitting that the most
remarkable copy Of the Bible the So
ciety has yet produced should be in
that tongue. 1 refer to the sumptu-
Gus edition de luxe presented to the
dowager empress of China on her six
t.eth birthday by the British and
American ministers on behalf of the
Christian women of that country
The book was manufactured by the
Presbyterian press in conjunction with
the silversmiths of Canton and had sill
yer covers embossed with bamboo and
bird designs. L, was printed on the
very finest paper obtainable with the
biggest type, and border of gold en-
circled every page. 1t was incased in
a casket of solid silver, the whole weigh
ing ten and half pounds, and there was
gold inscription plate on the cover of
the casket.
No sooner was this superb volume
presented to the dOwager empress than
she sent her eunuchs from the palace to
the book store of the Bible society to
ask for a common copy, so that she
and her ladies might compare the two
texts. Her majesty evidently thought
the Christians had one version for the
palace and another for the howell

BREEDING FOWLS AT SEA.
German Ship Captain Raises Chickens
and Pigeons on an Oil
Tank Steamer.

1t is not every man who goes to sea
that can order freshly laid eggs as a
companion to his breakfast bacon, but
Capt Thaprich, of the German oil
tank steamer Burgemeister Petersen,
has by a careful study of the genus
poultry been able to do so, says the
Baltimore Sun, of late date. On board
he has a flock of chickens that receive
much of his attention, and as "a re-
ward for his kindness they average
one dozen eggs a day from November
to May.
Capt Thaprichs fads are the breed
ing OF chickens and hOming pigeons
The homing pigeons are carefully
raised from the egg-all on board with
the exception of two pairs to start the
family, having been Matched on the
ship An incident of the instinct of
the homing pigeon was developed on
board the BUrgermeister Petersen on
her present trip to Baltimore Last
Friday, when the vessel was off Hog
island making her way to the
capes, the pigeons took an exercise
fly, and all but one returned. Capt
j. r. Thompson Joined the ship at
the capes to pilot her to Baltimore
At $3.50 p. M, after the ship had
steamed 20 miles from the time the
bird was missed, it came on board
Capt Thaprich was then in the cabin
taking his afternoon tea. He was the
first one to know that his pet had re-
turned.
AS the ship had made almost two
sides of a right-angled triangle from
the position where the bird was lost,
it was assumed that it had flown across
the land, cutting off the ship and join
ing it when 80 miles inside of the
capes, having left when the steamer
was fully 40 miles up the coast.

to galvanize the medieval inertia OF
Russia into recognition of modern ne.
cessities. The Grand Duke Serge, an
other uncle of the cars, is man OF
totally different caliber. He belongs
rather, to the hectoring type of Prus-
sian militarism, stern and pitiless to
the points of tyranny and inhumanity,
He is known as one of the principal
Jew haters and baiters in Russia. He
is the military governor of Moscow,
and to this day conforming Jews, even
the most wealthy, are not allowed to
sleep a night within the confines OF
the city. Of all the cars family the
Grand Duke Serge is probably the
most uncompromising uphOlder of au-
tocracy. The present system of gov
eminent has little to fear from the
moujik (peasant) element, which is
crassly dull and unenterprising, with
few natural gifts save the capacity for
suffering and illimitable, endurance.
An unbridgable gulf divides the

Sir William, Harcourt once described
