THE CZAR HAS AN HEIR
Russia Is Rejoicing Over the Birth oi
a Son to Nicholas
, ST. PETERSBURG: St. Peters
burg is divided between rejoicing
over the birth of an heir to the throne
and uncertainty as to the late of the
Port Arthur squadron. As has hap-
pened on several occasions since the
v.ar began, a fete day at the capital
coincides with an important develop-
ment at the front and national
thanksgiving is tempered with sol-
emnity.
A day marked by the display of
flags, the firing of salutes, the hold-
ing of religious services and the ex-
tending of official congratulations was
followed by a night of brilliant illumi-
nation. Garlands and lamps were
strung across almost every house

at bedtime every night he laid his

front, while from many of the latv
buildings flashed the Russian arms,
the imperial monogram and other de-
vices picked out in electric globes.
Early tens of thousands of tapers
glimmered by the altars of St. Peters-
burg's many shrines. In chapels and
cathedrals everywhere there wer«
solemn chorouses of thanksgiving,
from the imperial chapel of the Peter-
kof palace to the humble lamp.lit
shrines of the streets, where the
hurrying pedestrians, laborers and
drosky drivers waited to cross them
selves. The street crowds, however,
were much more quiet than is usual
on a holiday, for the popular rejoic-
ing over the event at the Alexander
villa could not dispel the anxiety
which prevailed regarding the fate
of the squadron on which so much de-
pends.
The emperor was greatly restricted
in a choice for the name for the heir
tr the throne by the fact that the im
perial initials which everywhere ap
pear in public edifices, on soldiers'
epaulettes, saddle cloths, railway
wagons, etc., are "A" and ”N.” 'ihe
selection of a name not beginning
with these letters would entail onor
mous expense should the heir come
to the throne.
There ate n great many traditions
about the name. The first Alexis,
who won many victories over the
Poles, endeared himself to his people
and is known in Russian history as
"the father of his country.”
The name is not a particularly
lucky one. Alexis Petroviteh was or-
dered to be executed by his father
Peter the Great, for treason, but he
died iu prison.

Crime
PLATTSBIRG, MO.: Lafayette
W. Jones, a well known farmer resid-
ing in Lafayette township, ten miles
west of this place, was shot and killed
hy his son, Hugh Jones, aged fifteen
years. The boy wanted to take the
family horse and buggy and drive
over to Hemple. His father refused
the request, and the lad. becoming
angry, went into the house and pror
cured a shotgun. Concealing him-
self behind the corner of the hosue, he
fired at his father. The first shot
took effect in the head and shoulders,
and Mr. Jones fell mortally wounded.
The boy reloaded the gun and fired

The biggest purchase of high grade
tobacco ever made in the West by a
cigar manufacturer was made last
Wednesday by Frank P. Lewis, Peoria

that the entire amount was to be fancy
selected tobacco. This, no doubt,
makes the Lewis factory the largest
holder in the United States of tobacco
of so high a grading.—ileraid-Traiir
