But, being used to circus excitement she did not faint. She read on to the end and found out that no less than II times in seven-reel production she would have to absolutely risk her life So she ceased to consider the huge salary contract as kind gift, but her nerve was good enough to make her willing to go through with it.

Former CZar and Czarina Have No Gas, Electricity or
 Bathroom.
FARE OF MOSTFRUGkL NATURE
Practically Condemned to the Life of Recluses-Daughters Allowed to Come and Go Freely, but Son
 Is Closely Guarded.

Paris.-Though things Russian are rather in disfavor just now, a short account of the life led by the Roma noffs the former imperial family, may prove of interest.
 Tobolsk has been called the "Cfty of Death" its temperature rarely rising above the freezing point. Most of its houses are built of wood, the one where the imperial family lives being one of the few brick buildings in that part of the country. Its ground floor Is occupied by company of soldiers installed there as guard. The two upper floors, consisting of 14 rooms most simply furnished, constitute the apartments of Colonel Romanoff."
 There Is neither running water nor gas, neither electricity nor bathroom. The servants are obliged to draw from nearby well the water needed for household purposes. The rooms are heated by brick ovens which burn wood. The largest room is not more than 16 feet by 10 feet.
 The windows of the house look out on an unattractive landscape. There is not even garden where the ex- czar might dig and forget his bore dom. A narrow balcony and a court yard inclosed by high brick walls fur nish the only breathing spots for the imperial prisoners.
 Nicholas Romanoff and his wife are practically condemned to the lives of recluses. Their sole outing consists in attending mass at the cathedral of the Annunciation or at a neighboring mon astery or going to the public baths, where as a special favor the revolu- tionary authorities permit them to bathe once week. Whenever they go out they are escorted by platoon of soldiers commanded by four officers of the guard.

MULE BALKS AT LEMON PIE
Animal Devours Stock in Bakery Wag- on, Except Citrus-Crusted Va
 riety.

Greenwich, Conn.-Many prominent citizens of this community whose wealth permits them to indulge in pie were forced to go without their daily rations unless, perchance, it was lemon pie that they had ordered from Conk- lin's bakery. A plain. everyday mule, that hadn't been considered at all in the food administrations regulations, was responsible.
 The mule furnishes the motive pow CT for one of the delivery wagons of the Round Hill dairy. His driver left him in Greenwich avenue and went into lunch room for light break fast.
 The mule had hunger, too, and it was accentuated by the aroma that he inhaled with the clear morning air. He pulled up to the rear of the bakery wagon. When the driver of that ve- hicle returned from making a delivery his stock of pies was reduced to the

he is authorized to receive the visit of two faithful high functonaries whom the revolutionary government permit ted to accompany him in his exile Count Frederils and General Voyekov.
 Nicholas Romanoff said recently to General Voyekov in an accent of pro- found resignation:
 Has my life not always been that of prisoner? I do not regret my lost power. All I ask is to be allowed to retire to Crimea, where 1 could live surrounded by flowers. I feel more than ever that I would be peaceful and happy as a simple citizen of repub- lie"
 His resignation in no wise is shared by the former Czarina Alexandra.
 Nowadays Alexandra devotes herself to her children, whom she teaches not to resign themselves but to remember What makes her most indignant Is that she is allowed neither to write nor re- ceive letters that are not opened by the revolutionary officers. She con stantly repeats to her daughters:
 'Never forget what We are forced to bear at the present moment"
 If the grand duchesses are allowed to come and go freely in the town without the vexation of any surveil- lance. the same thing is not true of the eX-czarevitch. Prince Alexis, who is familiarity known as Alioscha. can go out and play in the public parks when ever he likes, but he is watched by guards specially attached to his person.
 The daughters of the former czar lead a simple life. Grand Duchess Olga, the most serious of them all, has enrolled herself among the voluntary nurses of military hospital to which are sent convalescents from Siberia and where she conscientiously passes several hours a day.
 Grand Duchess Marie has taken up stenography and typewriting to help her father write his memoirs. But he dictates nothing and writes nothing. l Sometimes he leans out of the only window, which overlooks the town, and watches his children when they go for a walk. He wears the undress uniform of a colonel of the Prevbajen- skys and puts on a dignified air as soon as he thinks he is being observed. But when he thinks himself alone his back loses it's stiffness, he hides his care-lined face in his hands and this white, falls into melancholy breeding.

New York.-And now the lowly "spud" is to find itself exalted to the Hall of Fame. Along with the other immortals, such as pork, wheat, beef and sugar, the food administration has decreed that the emerald isle scutch- con shaN repose on the same shelf.

Barqes to Foil U-Boats.

If actual trials prove the scheme to be practicable, 1t is understood that in order to check the depredations of the enemy's U-boats, immense oceangoing barges lowed by powerful armed tugs, may be used instead of steamships for transporting freight through the sub- marine zones. Long, low-sitting, in- closed craft of steel construction will be tested. Crews being unnecessary, the barges are to be decked a few inches above the water line so that from a distance they will be practi- cally invisible to periscope. AS Is perhaps generally known, tub, be- cause of its small size and compara- lively shallow draft, offers a torpe- do poor target. In gun duel, should a U-boat risk a fight, the tug would have nearly an even break with the enemy.-Popular Mechanics Magazine.
