THE EMPRESS WHO TURNED
VAMPIRE.


MANY women have won power and
lNl luxury by their beauty. This is
the story OF an empress, turned
vampire. who raised shepherd boy
10 a position near her own and whose
fancy led her to love men Of all de-
gree.
Peter the Great OF Russia and Cath
crime. his servant girl queen, left a
daughter. Elizabeth. She became en-
press of Russia, and before that had
earned reputation for lightly loving
many men,
p Alexis Raxoum. born In 100. son
of a poor shepherd, was wondrously
handsome boy. with innocent face and
curly hair.
One of the imperial officers. passing
through the village on a Sunday,
chanced into the church and heard
Alexis sing. He persuaded the boys
parents 10 let him take the lad 10 Mos
COW. where he might get instruction.
And the officer obtained a place for
Alexis In the cathedral attended by
Elizabeth. II was not long until his
fine voice attracted notice. Elizabeth
heard him and was capuvated. She
ordered that he be added 10 the Choir
listers In her private chapel, without
even seeing Alexis. But when he came
10 the chapel she saw the innocent
face, soft eyes and gentle demeanor OF
this wonder-boy, and Immediately she
lost her heart TO him. He was In
stalled In the palace. with the richest
garments and all that luxury could
command. The shepherd boy was liy-
ing fairy tale come true.
Elizabeth's love for Alexis did not
prevent her from daliying with sterner
members OF his sex.
But Alexis was her one true love and
she refused many royal alliances. She
delighted TO see him dressed In fine
garments and would SIT entranced
while his sllvery voice tinkled through.
her apartments. He could have been
emperor had he willed. Alexis did not
come from the stuff OF which en-
perors are made. He was just a
beautiful youngster with a marvellous
voice and the soft graces OF an artistic
nature. II we wished TO be unkind
we might say that he preferred 10 be
the lapdog OF an empress rather than
her master.
Perhaps Elizabeth's love may be ex-
planned by fable OF La Fontaine. A
Brahmin turned mouse into beauti-
ful maiden. He offered her for hus-
band TO the sun. the wind, the stars,
but she wanted none Of them and
would have re husband until she saw
a mouse. which charmed her heart.
Elizabeth was the daughter or peas
ant and Alexis shepherds boy.

"VAMPS" WHO
MADE HISTORY
THE QUEEN WHO BECAME a
.kIN0."
By JAMES c. YOUNG.
% By Mcclure Newspaper syndioais.)


WE THINK Of little Sweden today
wv as one OF the vest-pocket ma
tions. But the close OF the Sixteenth
and the beginning Of the Seventeenth
centuries saw Sweden one OF the first
powers OF Europe. Several kings, es-
peclally Gustavus Adolphus. had over
run the Baltic mainland and penetrat-
ed far into Poland. Then Gustavus
died In 1892 and his six-year-old
daughter Christina became queen.
She was strange child. She rode,
hunted, swore and fought better than
any girl and most boys In Sweden. At
eighteen she took over control OF the
kingdom and broke of match which
had been arranged for her. She an
nounced that she would never wed,
and that instead Of queen she must be
called "king."
To her other accomplishments Chris
tina now added those of heavy
drinker and ruler OF light affections.
Her choice fell on several diplomats
OF her court, but was just as likely TO
linger upon a handsome trooper or a
strappIng coachman. She liked big
men, the rougher the better. and could
carry on a drinking bout with any
army sergeant
She slept FIVE hours day, stayed
in the saddle ten hours at time and
delighted In drilling her troops. She
had military capacity was well read.
with the politics OF Europe AT her fin
ger tips. Christina excelled In athlet-
les, won the reputation OF crack
shot and could handle a sword with
the best of her officers.
Although II would have taken a
brave man 10 become Christmas con-
sort, she received many offers OF mar
riage which might have linked her
throne with that OF the first In Europe.
But she declined all offers and persist
ed I'm her resolution 70 remain single.
AT first her rule had been wise, even
brilliant, but by degrees she became
involved I'm difficulties and the power
Of Sweden began 60 wane. Christina
found herself unable to stem the tide
She was a king In name only, lacking
the mental balance or the true perse-
verance TO overcome obstacles. Her
nature inclined TO the impetuous and
not the devious ways of statecraft.
Stricken by remorse and the diff
culties OF her country, Christina quit
the throne. And, although she was no
longer "king," her mode Of life contin-
ued to be series OF truly royal rev.

CALIFORNIA JoE'S JOKE ON THE
SOLDIER BOYS

California Joe was a man of mys-
terry. His real name Is unknown, some
saying II was Joseph Milmer, and 9TH

ever II may have been made little diff
ference In his fame, for his title OF
California Joe was known from Can

river TO the Pacific coast One OF the
traits Of this quaint old scout was his
fondness for practical joke and
many long days march In the Indian
campaigns was made lighter for the
officers he served by one of his pranks.
One time during the Sioux war OF
1876, while he was scouting for Col.
Anson Mills, he discovered an old
grave along the trail. Joe stopped,
took OFF his hat and bowed his head
reyerently. The soldiers Immediately
did the same and asked him the rea-
son for his act
~This here Is the grave Of poor
AMOS Billings" said Joe. -He was
with me back In 1896 when we dug
gold In the Black Hills. We got so
much that we had all our pockets
full, and even our mules wuz loaded
10 tn las pound. One night we
camped right on this spot, and thet
night poor Amos took the cramps
Lordy how he did suffer is awful for
me TO think on now. We done all we
could but the poor feller died thet
night.

That night the soldiers took spades
and rushed TO 'poor Amos Billings

bones but no gold. "Poor Amos Bill

CUANNING BOYS GET BEAR

Harold Willendorf. Joseph Couillard
and Lawrence Tobin, three school
boys from Charming. killed bear last
Saturday while hunting for partridges
on the cut over lands near Golden
Spur on the u. l.. e. S. r. r. about 2hs
miles from Charming. The boys after
reaching the location where they de-
cided 10 try their luck for birds. left
the railroad track and separated. They
were not in the woods very long be-
fore Lawrence called 10 the other two
boys, saying there was a wolf In a
hollow log. BY this time the bear had
started to crawl out OF the den. Law
renee could then plainly see IL was a
bear. He again called to the other two
boys who by this time. we're nearly up
with him.
The bear growled at the boys and
started 10 get away.
The three boys opened fire and two
rounds from each of the young hunters
killed the game.
The only ammunition the boys had
was bird shot but their aim was good
and being close TO the animal they
were able TO kill him with what they
had.
They then secured the aid OF the
section men on the r. l.. 4 $. II. X.
and brought the bear to Claiming on
the motor car used by the section men
The animal weighed $50 pounds and
men who claim 20 know say he was
about two years old.
The adventure caused considerable
excitement among the young hunters
or Claiming.
