LONDON, March 27.-The former emperor of Russia, Nicholas Roman off, has arrived at Tsarkoe.Selo pal ice, says Reuter- dispatch from Pet

 "Alighting from the train at Tsar. Soe.Selo," says the correspondent,
 Nicholas appeared calm, but was laggard. He wore the flowing uni. form of the sixth Kuban regiment )f Cossacks and a black busby. Around his shoulders was purple

 Nicholas was awakened while on board the train at 9 o'clock and en. tered the dining room about 10 He invited his suite to have morning coffee with him and conversed with them for an hour. He then bade fare. we'll to his suite and the servants, kissing all of them. The servants kissed him on the shoulder. Ad. dressing those about him, Nicholas said:
 "T thank you for your services. Farewell"
 The four commissioners from the Ouma whom the government sent to Mohilev to arrest the former emper. or were received by Gen. Alexieff, to whom they showed their mandate. Their arrival caused no excitement at headquarters. Nicholas stepped aboard the imperial train, where the dowager empress bade him farewell Cen. Alexoff informed Nicholas of the commissioners arrival, and he replied
 q am ready to go anywhere and submit to any decisions"
 Rear Admiral Niloff was refused permission to travel with the former by the commissioners. A si. lent crowd witnessed the departure of the train, which consisted of ten

NO APOLOGIES TO MAKE

As far as Senator Sutherands quarrel with The Empire is concerned this paper has apologies to make notwithstanding that t would make them freely and frankly if they were in justice forthcoming-for what it said in connection with his infamous charge that men were railroaded" tho pentitentary by the Democratic machine" of Fairbanks for not working with it or for anything else it has said In making this statement let it be understood that this paper had never said that Senator Sutherland was liar" In fact it excused his false charge against dis.

 At that The Empire knows few politicians in he Territory who have given circulation to moro base less charges against than this Senator from the
 Fourth Division-and for the life of cannot this morning think of the of a single one of them, Pig Wick himself alone excepted.
 The Empire will so further No citizen of Alaska worthy of the and decent newspaper will make such statements Senator Sutherland has ut. :ered concerning the officials Of the Fourth Division pr as the Dispatch made this morning without going through with their charges There is law and order spirit in the and there is or justice and right here is hatred of crooks and crime and of ali who would suppress freedom. Public sentiment will make short shrif of Judge Bunneu, District Attorney Roth Marshal Erwin and others if the people be com vnced that half what Senator Sutherland said the Dispatch said is true If the Senator and the news paper believe what they say it is up to them to make he truth known-and convince the people that they peak the truth If they telling the truth. and if here IS not miserable failure of citizenship on their part Alaska will be afirc with indignation and right 2ous wrath within a very short space of time If hey are not telling the truth-wtat will the people 1E Alaska think of them?

HOW DO THEY FEEL?

(New York Times.) The gentle Pacificlst has had his
 day, And each has glibly said his little
 say. None heard the summons on the
 winters air, And each scof'ed broadly at the
 word Prepare" '' Prepare for what? No danger!
 Not the least!" And some considered every man a
 beast Who said, "Got ready! It will do
 no harm To strengthen rorts-the citizens to
 arm. One cannot tell, when other war
 fares wage, How soon, at home, a kindred fire
 may rage" The gentle Dacifst, of good intents, Looks much today like minus thirty
 cents, He sees at last that every other eye Discovered something that his gaze
 passed by. And all the men who talked of
 mounting guns, Were not poor looms, but Liberty's
 wise sons, Who, sensing danger, reading signs Got on the job guarding peace with
 might. The gentle pacifsts now don't ap-
 peal. know their looks--I wonder how
 they feel!

 When a woman can't find any other way to spend her husbands money she will spend it on some thing for him.
 As long as man has five or six hairs on his dome he pities the poor fellows who are bald.
 Some men spend their decjlmg years praying for more gold, when they sEould be praying for al as ot.tos soul.
 No matter how many mistakes a cooking school bride makes she will bawl like she is heart-broken if her hubby doesn't eat them cheerfully.
 Woman has an idea that can man't get along without her. And, for at least once, she is right.
 At r she believes that a girl should be engaged to man at least two years before she marries him. At 27 she believes that q two-day is long enough.
 When girl lets a fellow print a kiss on her lips it is understood that it is not for publication. And yet she usually lets him so to press.
 Anyway, when Adam got back home from work every evening he didn't kiss Eve merely to get whiff of her breath and see if she had been eating apples again.
 Every closet in the house can be SO full of Friend Wife's clothes that Friend Husband can't find room to hang up his vest But that doesn't keep Friend Wife from complaining that she hasn't thing to wear.
