N|CK'S HARD FATE
One Romanoff to Whom Country
Has Been UngratefuI.
Story OF Great Russian Military Com.
mander Most Amazing Romance
Of the War-His Splendid GEN.
eralship Is Recalled.

From March. 1917. till October, 1918
Grand Duke Nicholas ROmanoff, for
mer commander IT. chief Of the Rus
sian armies and one Of the most bril-
liant generals Of the great war, was
prisoner In the town of Yalta In the
Crlmea. He Is now In Milan with his
family, humbly housed. The story OF
big Nick" Is one Of the most amaz.
Ing romances Of the war, the Pitts
burgh GaZette-Times states.
When the bolsheviki gained control
of Russia Nicholas was residing at
Tifis, where he had been governor I'M
der the car and under the Lvoff
regime. He was summoned to Yalta
by the bolshevik authorities and obeyed
the summons. His brother, his wife.
his sister-in-law and other members Of
his family and his suite were impris-
oned with him. Twenty-Five bolShevik
soldiers were detailed to guard the dis
tinguished prisoners.
Late In the summer Of 1918 II was
decided by the Yalta soviet to execute
all the prisoners. The bolShevik guards
absolutely declined to permit the sem
tence Of death to be executed and sent
the firing squad back to headquarters.
Three times thereafter executioners
were sent to kill the prisoners, but in
each instance the guard prevented the
carrying-out of the sentence.
"har - III
Nicholas declined to permit the Ger
mans to enter the house that had been
his prison, declaring his utter loath-
ing Of all things German. Soon after
this the allies took Yalta and Nicholas
was rescued.
All the private fortune Of the grand
duke has been lost. His lands have
been confiscated. At Milan he lives
comfortably, but very unostentatiously.
Democracy owes much to Grand
Duke Nicholas. He was, in fact,
stanch upholder Of the old Russian alb
solutism. But first Of all Nicholas was
Russian. He knew Russia's saliva
ton depended on the vanquishing Of
Germany. He was leader Of con-
summate skill and IT Is more than prob
able that only his splendid generalship
prevented Germany from winning the
war In the early stages. His retreat
before the tremendous attack Of Mack
essen and Hindenburg, which resulted
In the saving Of the Russian armies,
was one Of the most notable chapters
Of the war.
Between the bolshevist Russia Of to-
day and the old autocratic Russia for
which Nicholas fought. practical stu
dents and statesmen find little choice,
but 1t must be admitted that the au-
tocracy produced great men, while the
gutter communism has found only
scoundrels for its leaders. In the
awarding Of Justice there should be
some provision for this gigantic Rus
sian, who in 1914 and 1915 prevented
Germany from marching to easy vic.

EARLY BUILDING FOR SUCCESS
Youths Wise Employment Of Leisure
Hours Means Everything in His
After Life

IF the young man could only as
that merely to live and eat and drink
and sleep. and then die, is not enough,
but that he must rob himself Of many
of the pleasures usually taken up by
young men If he means to make his
life of the highest possible use to the
world. he would set his foot on the
pathway to accomplish something
worth while.
There Is no harm in billiards or
pool or in dancing, baseball or card
playing, or any one Of the scores OF
different diversions and recreatfons
open to young men. The natural in
clination usually is to devote a large
part of the leisure hours of young man
hood to such pleasures. But the youth
who Is really earnest in his ambition
to do something worth while will dis
cipline himself to resist such tempta-
lions during his early, formative years,
for the whole fate Of man is largely
determined by how he utilities his plas-
tic years. He may be restricted by
circumstances, by environment, by
family ties In his selection of his daily
work, but every young man. particu-
larly nowadays, has many hours that
he can call his own, and 1t is how he
chooses to use these hours that
counts most and tells mOSt.-Forbes
