Born a Russian Count and reared in
the lap Of luxury, his heart went out
to the uneducated people of his native
land. This feeling of sympathy led
him to open a free school, but also
brought upon him the displeasure Of

he was torn away from his wife and
children, whom he never since has
seen.
He was sent to Siberia as a political
exile. For fourteen months he was in
solitary confinement and then for four
years was kept at hard labor on the
bleak island of Soghalien. Finally he
escaped to japan and later came to
the United States, where he Is now a
naturalized American citizen.
In his thrilling life story he also de-
scribes the customs and problems of
the Russian people and the almost I'M
believable conditions which exist In
Siberia.

INFATUATED WOMAN
SHIELDS SWEETHEART
IN FORGERY PROBE

Elizabeth Culbertson, Of Centerville,
aged 81, q strikingly pretty young
woman, and Robert Mendenhall, OF
Richmond, with whom she is madly
infatuated. Chief Goodwin says, were
each fined $25 and costs IN city court
this morning for statuatory offense.
Although not related in court Chief
Goodwin told how the young woman
forged the name of her foster-father.
e. L. Culbertson, prominent resi-
ident of Centerville, to six checks,
each for SIS, which money she turned
over to Mendenhall after he had lost
his position recently. In court the
prosecutor said Miss Culbertson left
her home in Centerville about three
weeks ago. and lived for week with
Mendenhall at a hotel.
1t is said that the six forged checks
were all passed upon Centerville mer-
chants, two upon j. r. Moulton, three
upon H. l.. Johnson, and one upon
Carl Sherer. Mr.. Culbertson will re-
fund these merchants for their losses,
it is said, and 1t is improbable the
girl will be prosecuted on charge of
forgery. The fines Of both Miss Cul-
bertson and Mendenhall were paid.
The girl vigorously informed the
authorities that her sweetheart did not
influence her to forge checks. She
said she did this to obtain money
for Mendenhall and herself and that
he was not aware Of what she was
doing.

Bond Claims Legality.
City Attorney Bond today submitted
to Mayor Robbins a written opinion
that the authorization of the loan was
legal and that such authorization was
not required from the qualified voters
OF the city at referendum election,
as contended by John L. Rupe, attor-
ney for the Second National bank. The
First, Second and Union National
banks and the Dickinson Trust COM
pany refused to participate in the
loan upon the advice of their couu.
sci, principally because their attor-
neys all agreed that under the law
the city could obtain the money IL
desired only by the issuance Of bonds.
At conference Of attorneys repre-
senting all banks, except the German
American. including A. NJ. Gardner,
John L. Rupe and c. e. Shiveley. Il
was agreed that they would advise
that council possessed no authority to
order the negotiation Of a temporary
loan, the money secured to be applied
to the purchase Of the electric plant
Of the Richmond Light, Heat and
Power company. They agreed that a
city could resort to q temporary loan
propriated for q specified purpose, to
be provided out of the regular tax rev.
enue. in the annual budget appropria-
tion by ordinance.
As no appropriation had been pro-
vided in the 1916 budget appropria-
tion ordinance for the use Of any part
of the municipal tax revenue for the
purchase Of the L., H. and p. plant
the three bank attorneys held that
council could not authorize a tempor-
ary loan. They all agreed. however.
that the council had the authority to
authorize the issuance of short term
bond issue providing 1t did not exceed
the city legal debt limit.
Mr.. Gardner did not believe a refer
endum election on the question was
required. However. Mr.. Rupe insisted
that such an election was necessary

conceal the fact that there existed Ill
feeling against certain property own
ers who would be effected in the
event the street was paved from West
Fifth to West Seventh. The board
pointed out that there were legal OBJ
stacles to prevent the improvement of
the two blocks in question, but this
argument made no effect on the prop

GIANT GUNS
DROP SHELLS

PARIS. Feb. 10.--German guns, be-
lieved to have a range of more than
twenty miles are being used in a sys'
tematic effort to destroy Beifort, the
mighty fortress that forms the key
stone of the French defense on the
eastern frontier. On Tuesday and
Wednesday ten shells were hurled into
Belfort by these mighty cannon, which
are believed to be the fastest output
of the Krupp factory at Essen.
French aviators are trying to as
certain the location of the guns, which
probably are hidden in some hidden
recess of the Vosges mountains. When
their position is determined French
officials declare 1t will be simple
matter for an air squadron to put them
out OF commission by dropping bombs
