Special Cablegram to The star
ST. PETERSBURG. May 3-The car

the cZar, on the parade ground at Gar

Pages Corps and the Naval Cadets There
were no signs on these occasions that the
czarina's health has recently become more
uncertain, as has been reported in dis
patches published abroad.
Apparently the foreign visitor who
formed this opinion through not having
been received by her majesty when he
was recently at CzarskOe SolOe is under
a misapprehension. or some time past
the czarina has received ractically no.
body outside the circle of her intimate
friends, meaning the families of her
danes d'honneur. She took no past in the
ceremonial receptions of the foreign per-
sonages who came for the Grand Duke
Vladfmirs funeral. and did not make an
exception even in the case of King Ferdi-
nand. 1t is not altogether question of
health. In recent years her distaste for
general society has increased steadily, and
st. Petersburg society scarcely dares to
expect to hear of any date being fixed for
an imperial court.
During these reviews Of the boy SOL
diers, however, the czarina has shown an
animated interest and pleasure in her
sons comments. for he shows a tireless
interest and enjoyment in watching ma
