HEIR TO RUSS throne
SHROUDED in MYSTERY
Delicate Twelve-Year-Old Boy Pur-
sued by Fate.
(By the international News serviee)

tby the international News SeryfeAl
Petrograd. April 6-Mystery almost
from birth has surrounded the son of
Gar Nicholas H.. who by his fathers
abdlcatlon has now become titular ruler
| OF 100000 people under the regency OF
, his uncle.
This delicate 12-year-oId bow has E
tremendous weight to bear His nation
controls about one-sixth Of the land sur
face of the earth.
Some say that upon his little head
descended at birth the Course of the
| Czarevitch." Few Of those who have
borne that title during the centuries o.
the Romanoff rule have ever lived their
lives unscathed by physical or mental
misfortune
Tho Czarina had had four children.
All were girls. and the people of her
realm told. whether truly or not, of Il
prophecy that she must bear three
| more daughters before a son would be
hers 1t is said that the Gar himsel:
believed this superstition. Certain 1t 4.
that there was almost hysterical relief
when q fifth child was born at this
palace of Peterhof on July 30. rso4, and
| 1t was announced that Russia's next
Gar had come to his people
The child was handsome, active,
healthy and abnormally bright. By
| the time he was four years old he was
ruler IN all out name Of the palace.
And then, In 1872 -the curse Of the
Czarevitch descended upor the gay little
figure. The hope OF Russia was Ill.
That was all the outside world knew at
first. Presently news. never since
| authenticated. began to filter from the
! palace where the little boy lay near to
death.
There were a score Of rumors. and
only one. apparently. approximated the
truth. Nilhilists had attacked tns
Czarevitch while the royal family was
aboard the yacht STANDARD. One of them
had reached the bright quick boy and
MANNED him.
In the last few years It has been sale
that the boy has recovered. at least
in part. and has even been to the front
to inspect the fighting lines.
Until lately the Czarevitch has dragged
his left leg while walking.

(By the International News .service.)
New York, April 6.-Travelers recently
in Russia told here today how pro-Ger-
man Russian plotters nearly succeeded
several times in their efforts to deliver
their country over to the Kaiser. Many
times the pro-Germans nullified impor-
tant military operations and prevented
Russian victories.
When Gen. Alexis Rnusiloff struck
hard at the Austrians IN the late Cali
clan campaign he did so, 1t is declared.
in the first instance, and but for the fact
that the army was feared Gen. Brusiloff
would have been called off.
The transfer of the Grand Duke Mich
olas to Asia Minor in the face OF his
wonderful defense against the Teuton
advance is attributed again to the pro-
German influence at court.
The basis for the talk of a separate
peace with Gerpany on the part of Rus
sa Is said to have originated from the
known workings of the reasonable
clique at court. Men high in authority
were reported to be under German in
fluence. and these rumors reaching sthe
trenches the cry went up that Russia's
armies would turn and march on Petro-
grad before ever the soldiers would con-
sent to a separate peace.
To such an extent were the Germans

AssembIyman Miller to Introduce
Bill Creating New High
school District

At q meeting at the CoWt
House Thursday morning and af-
ternoon at the request of assem-
blyman V. V. Miller, who came
up from Madison purposely to
straighten out this much debated
affair, is was agreed by all OF
the representative men present,
that he draw up a bill creating
new High School district. The
proposed new district will COM
prise a tier of Is townships in
the Northwest section of the
county, namely all of Round
Lake, Lenroot, Hayward town
and city, Hunter, amd one town
ship each of Reserve and Sand
Lake.
After looking over the old rec
ords, Mr.. Miller concluded, that
I'M intent at least, though not
legally, all but two OF the town
ships included in the above men
toned bill, were set apart from
the Hayward High School dis
trict I'M 1905, at which time a
settl tlememt was made. He as
Nlmes that the territory NlHich
at that time cut away from the
High School district, is not tri-
butary to the Hayward instlt'I-
tlon and therefore should net be
included now. The new district
embraces enough taxable pro-
perty so as mott to- burden any
particular section. Mr.. Davis,
representing the interests OF this
city is kindly disposed toward
Mr.. Miller's proposed bill.
The collection of the High
School tax from every town III
the county, as levied by the
school and county board, is still
hanging fire. There is no ques-
ton but that all the II townships
of the Northwest section Of the
county will pay their share with
out d protest. Whether the rest
of the county must pay their
share this year, is a matter that
will have to be de decided, by
the, court Sawyer County Rec
ord.
