Car received his investure while he
was still the heir apparent This was
done at "circle' can open assemb-
lage), at which time ne promised to
continue to grant all the ancient rights
and privileges of the warrior Cossacks
of old to the present generation and In
return they were to serve him as
soldiers wherever and whenever he
was pleased to send them.
There was great deal of ceremony
about this investure, after which there
was a review of the Cossacks by the
Gar. Then came an exhibition OF
riding which made such an impress
sion on the young Czaravitch that ne
often recalls the great day when he
reviews the Cossacks--a review which
occurs once every year.
Catherine Distrusted Cossacks.
When Catherine ii came to the
throne she rather distrusted the 10y
atty of the Cossacks and decided that
II was best to have them scattered
over larger territory, so she coaXed
a number of them to Xuban by offer
ing them grants of land and other Ia
vors. About 10000 Cossacks accepted
these perquisites and came to the Ku-
ban province to live. Ekaterinodar be-
came the principle city, and to this
day the queer little place Is known as
"Catherine's Gift" The first service
rendered to the Empress Catherine by
these men was the building of line
of forts along the border whicf
barred the entrance from the noun
tains and linked them with another SCI

they are very proud. The animals
are bred In the Caucacus and are
handsome specimens OF horsefiesh.
There is great rivalry among the men
as to which Cossack can bring the best
horse to serve the Gar.
Nearly every member of this regi-
ment wears a decoration of some
kind, presented to him by the Car for
meritorious service.
Warsaw, while u beautiful city, Is
a sad one, and one In which frequent
riots occur. The Poles have really
never been subdued, and while they
outwardly bow to the Russian govern
ment and greet the Gar as the King
of Poland, they have no real love for
Russian rule and occasionally some
hot headed persons start "manifes-
tauon." Then the CossacK rides out
to subdue the riot which Is sure to
follow. He always succeeds - in a
way perhaps brutal from an American
standpoint, but he does subdue the
riot.
Unfortunately he is a bit.sr enemy
of the Jew, and many of the hard
ships which this race has had to I'M
dergo in Russia is laid at the door of

The writer has met these men In
/ Warsaw and other parts of Russia

the slightest brutality In their action.
They make excellent messengers In

.way from an enemy by their excel

Cossacks. The three sets of Cossacks,
the ones left at Kharof, the ones VINO
settled in Kuban and those OF Gre
benski, soon became an imposing pow
err Of half a million souls
They rarely intermarry with other
Russians, and have remained true to
their religious faith and TO all the
customs of their forefathers, even to
the extent of retaining the old Cassack
dialect Of the sixteenth century. They
are perhaps the proudest people In
the whole Russian Empire. Their 10y
atty to the Car under all circum-
stances is part of their religion, ana
they serve him with dog-like deVo-
ton.
Queer Dress.
The men have worn the same style
Of clothing for centuries. This con-
sists of a single breasted garment like
frock coat, but reaching almost TO
the ankles, frightened in closely at the
waist. with a belt from which are
suspended a dagger, sword and ire

century, but still a fortress of great
strength. From the barracks rise tow
crs 400 feet in height which were built
between 1896 and 1919. In the chapel
at the citadel are the twelve apostles
done IN red marble. There are many
historical buildings and churches IN
Salzburr, but fires have wiped out
some Of the best known landmarks.
The style of many of the houses and
squares IL so typically italian that
the city is sometimes referred to as

Prescnt-Day Fortresses.
OF course the valiant defense of the
Belgians who manned the fourteen
forts mprising the defenses about
LieSe Is still fresh in the minds of all.
These forts held out to the last against
the baUerinE howitzers the Kaiser
hurled against them, and 1t was not
until the German host DETECTED Its
line Of attack that the sturdy Belgians
abandoned them. The tragic deaths
Of the little group Of officers who re-
manned to touch off the mine that blew
the forts to atoms furnishes one Of
the most picturesque chapters of the
present grim war.
The forts surrounding Paris are the
marvels of the age. They completely
encircle the French capital and all
are equipped with every device known
to modern deathstl ealing warfare.

Dinant Since Wiped Out.
Dinant, an ancient town, lies on the
right bank of the River Meuse, in the
Province of Namur and is connected
TO the left bank by a long bridge
on which are tho station and suburb
of St. Medard. Rising abruptly. and
projecting over the river, Is the cliff
Of Bouvignes, on which stands the
famous old citadel, once as strong as
any fortress built, but now dismantled
and chief attraction to tourists and
sight-seers. The citadel Is 800 feet UP
the cliff Half way up this sheer
rocky cliff is the grotto of Montfat,
claimed to have been the shrine of
Diana. Directly beneath the citadel.
fanking the bridge, is the church of

century This old sanctuary recently
