talking-the Grand Duke who, once

armies and uncle of the murdered
Gar, is now an exile in this lovely
little Italian village on the Gulf of
Genoa.
Aloof From Boarders.
In a simple boarding-house he has
been living with his wife, the Grand
Duchess Anastasia. his brother and
his sister-in-law, the life of a re-
cluse, eating in the common dining
room, but always aloof from his fel-
low "boarders."
Since the British man-of-war that
brought him from the Crimea
touched at Genoa to allow him to
disembark for this place of refuge,
the grand duke has been besieged
by correspondents of all national
tiles seeking audience. Imposing
sums have been offered him for his
memoirs. But as persistently he has
evaded publicity. Here in Santa
Margherita he rides on the tram
cars, and is seen unostentatiously
slipping about the little town car
rying small parcels home or packets
of letters which he invariably posts
himself-perhaps not willing to en-
trust his correspondence to others.
A single maid Is attached to the
grand Duchess; the duke engages
two Wallets, whose chief functions
are to interpose their burly per-
sonages between the duke and his
would-be interviewers.
