 T was walking along the Nevsky Prospect with friend, viewing a gi, gantic demonstration of 500,000 peo- pie celebrating the victory of the re- voiution when I observed coming to- ward us tall, well groomed and care less looking gentleman. His derby was set roguishly back upon his head. He was swinging a cane and smoking a cigarette. Do you know what that is?' asked my friend On replying in the negative. I was informed This Is the Grand Duke Machael, brother of ex-Czar Nicholas
 "The former heir apparent to the throne of all the Russias seemed quite pleased with the demonstration. He was having a jolly good time and ap- peared to care very little for the fate of his brother or the fact that he was now simply Citizen Michael Alexan- droyitch Romanoff." .
