The Strict Rules of Russia.
The Czar has just colchrated lii
thirty-first birthday. Ho is prob
ably the most powerful man of liis
age that the world lias known in our
time. To tho rulor of 13o,0t0,0(Mi
of the human race at twenty six is
an experience which lias come to
only one living man which
come, perhaps, to only one man since
the world began. At that ago N itli-
olas II became emperor of Russia.
Of the 1,500,000,000 people on the
face of the earth one in twelve bow
ed dowD to this young man, at whose
bidding 2,500,000 men would rise in
arms, luose who know tue Uzar
assert that he is the most lovable of
meo, sensitive to a high degree, liv
ing a quiet family life, with a pas
sionate love of home and children,
yet weighted down with the cares
of empire, lie longs to be known,
say his friends, as "Nicholas the Ed
ncator. He is an insoluble para-
ox, whose act one day Booms quite
consistent with hie act another
day. Hut the troth id said to be
that the young emperor is over-
helmed by the appalling rcnponsi
bility that rests upon him and half
the acts committed in his name are
not his acts at all. "The Cznr," said
one who knows him, "knows less
about Russia than many a foreigner."
At the beginning of Ins reign N ich
olas put himself ou the side of com
mon sense in the army by setting
the officers an example which they
are not likely to forget. A young
lieutenant bad oO ended Ins col-
leagues by riding in a tram down
to the barracks. "Gentlemen," said
the emperor, "I fear that to ride in
a tram is considered beneath the
dignity of an otlicer in yur regi
mcnt. I am yonr colonel and I have
just been riding in a tram. Do you
wish me to send in my paeri?"
This little speech settled the matter
and the regiment has lost its snob
bishness since then.
Nicholas II holds a colonelcy iu
the British army. An interesting
story is told in connection with his
appointment. The head of the war
oilice whs present when Queen Vic
toria suggested that the CV.ar should
be made a British colonel, and it is
said that he spent some time in try
ing to persuade the Queen tLat such
a course waa impossible, inasmuch
as every other crowned head in Eti
rope would expect the same honor.
Queen Victoria listened patiently
and then said, quietly; "It may be
impossible, but it will have to I
done all the aame." Chicago News.

excellent bearing and soldierly train

drills and dress parade to-day.
Uovernor Aycock and party wore
taken on a special train to Wrights-
ville Round immediately on their
arrival in Wilmington this morning,
Hero they wero met by the comna-
nies composing the r irst battalion,
in command of Major Winston, and
the Ihird uegiment Band, nuder
Ixmtler r red lesli. The Governor
was given an entlmsitintie reception,
and on arrival at "Camp Aycock"
salute of 17 iruns was tired in his
honor. Tho Governor and his part?
took dinner at the camp and were
the gnoets of Company E.
A i o clock all tho stall and line
oflicers, headed by Colonel Perry
and Lieutenant Colonel Craig of the
Third regiment, made a formal call
oii the distinguished visitors.
Iho review of the regiment by
ho governor and staff took place at
4:'!0 o'clock, an immense crowd of
visitors from tho beach and city be-
ng present. 1 ho weuthcr conditions
were pertect. 1 ho companies were
formed in long lines the whole
length ot the field, and then the
governor and his stall and Colonel
1 erry and Insstalt walked the leiierth
I the line, hrst in front and then
n the rear ot the troops. Then the
companies under command of their
captains were "right about faced,"
and lead bv the band, they marched
n review before the governor. Each
innany saluted tho governor and
he returned the salute. Iho (root s

delighted at the splendid work of
tho men, and Colonel rerrv was
highly congratulated on their sol-
dierly liearing.
About half an hour after the re-
view tho regular dress parade wae
held. As usual the troops made an
excellent appearance. As recall was
sounded, tho fUg was lowered and I
the cannon boomed. When the
"Star Spangled Banner" was played
by the band, all the gentlemen stood
uncovered, and when "Dixie" was
rendered a mighty cheer rent tho I
air. there were about a thousand
visitors in camp today and they
were all highly pieascd at what they
saw.
A salute of 11 guns was lired
when General Uoyster csmn to camp
this morning at H o'clock.
The camp flag has Iioeii flying at
half mast out of resect to the mem
ory of Major W. II. Overman who
died yesterday. All the men in the
Third battalion are wearing crajKi
on their arms. Tho news of his
death was given to the camp in an
official order from headquarters.
( Mlieer of the day to day was Cap

were i.ients. Johnson and W alker.
With fair weathe, to-morrow the
excursion to be run by the Third
Kegiment Hand on tho steau.er Wil

and every guest on the trip will un
doubtedly spend a most delightful
day's outing.

Executive Pardons Too Frequent.
Tho Ncwlicrn Nows has a wise
and sensible editorial on Executive
Clemency that is timely. It eays
that "Executive pardons aro becom
ing a trifle too frequent" and shows
that there is need of reform all along
tue line. It is so good that we give
place to it, as follows :
"A few months aeo the Govern
or of this State pardoned a man who
I tor somo offense or another, had
I disPUtll aioitiin mnatn I ilin nnnitnn.
i vi v. m Durnni VUttlB III UJU l lull-
tiary, and still had a number of
vears tn Ida rlnl.ir Tl, naliti.ui
asking for tho pardon, was signed
by numerous citizens, among whom
were tho solicitor who had prosecut
ed tho prisoner, a majority of the
piry that convicted linn, and last,
tue judge who had sentenced him.
This seems to be carrying the mat-
j tor to a most unreasonable extreme.
It places a rexponsibihty upon the
uovernor winch he in no wise mer-
its. It makes him a target for crit-
icism and censuro, no matter wheth
er the pardon bo granted or not
"In this particular case, if the so
licitor was pemiadod that the man
I was innocent he should not have
pressed the caso. But no matter
what he believed, he prosecuted tho
prisoner with such persistent vigor
that ho procured his conviction.
And the same with tho judge and
jury. If the latter was composed
of honest men, and they were satis-
tied that the prisoner was innocent,
they should have said so in their
verdict. And if the indue himself
had felt doubts as to the prisoner's
(Hiilt he could have set the verdict
asido. lnt none ot these things
were done. Ihe man was tried,
convicted, sentenced and sent to tho
State pi imm. Eater on, they signed
the petition to the Governor, thero-
by throwing the onus of the man s
imprisonment (had tho pardon been
retimed) on the Governor.
I "Our Courts must do lielter than
this if they would retain the respect
of tho people. 1 hey must not send
a criminal to the penirentiary and
then importune tho Governor to
turn him out. If this practice con-
tmues the courts may as well cease
I A.-.:.,.. 1 : ti' t,i; .
but when it interferes with the
courts of j iMicc we protest in the
name of humanity. V hen a man
is tried by a court of justice, convict-
ed of crime, and sentenced, it stands
to reason that he is guilty. The of
Beers of the court should therefore
He content to let justice take its
course, and not importune the exec-
utive to undo what they theinsoives
have done. Executive clemency is
aliight when proerly employed,
but liko a gnat many other things,
it is likely to tie abused on various
and sundry occasions.
Two Children Drowned.
Uertha and Willie Emery, ehil
dren of Mr. Charles Emery wore
drowned in House Creek ueur this
city late Sunday afternoon. The
little girl was ! years old and the
little bov i. I hey had been to the
home of their uncle, Mr. Thomas
Tvson. in company with a younger
sister and iu returning home had to
cross House Creek over a foot log.
The creek was very much swoleu by
the recent rains and was very near

were to pass.
licrtha, the elder of the children,
passed safely over first with the

one of them, most probably Willie,
lost his footing and thereby caused
liertha to lose her balance so that
both fell over into the water which
was rushing in a maddened 11 J
underneath the foot log.
When the two children fell off
the log the infant left ou the bank
began screaming wildly and attract
ed tho attention of a woman who
wm not fir from Air. Emery 'l house.
When she reached the scene theac
tions of the little child indicated
that the other two children were in
the creek. 80 she gave an alarm
which bought several men to the

southward and the engine had down

car broke looso and started down the
mountain. The grade is very steep
at this point and the car gained a
frightful momentum before it dis
appeared from tho view of the hor
rilied engineer and fireman in their
engine tin the summit of tho moun
tain. They reported immediately
at the station, and the news caused
great excitement, as the northbound
pacsenger train had left Willets, the
next station, seven miles down the
mountain side, but a few minutes
before. The passenger train was

the heavy car of oak lumber was

The Battle Is On.
The buttle which has for acme
timo been pending between the steel
companies and their workmen is
now on, with 74.000 men on the
strike. How long it will last or
how it will end no one can yet pre
dict, for both depend to a very large
extent on the ability of tho strikers,
to hold out and that depends upon'
the fund they have to draw npo
Many, if not the larger nnjf"
these 71,0(Ml men have (i
provide for and unless the .
laid up something they must f t (
vided for out of the fund the work
men have, so it can be seen that it
costs something to maintain a strike
liko that for any lengthy period.
If the steel Companies believed
they could continue the strike long
they would very a on come to terms
because tho longer the strike lasts
the more they, in common with tho
strikers, will suffer, and their stocks
have already begun to suffer from
it abroad.
nr thingcertain is that European
capitalists are not going to put much
money into these stocks while the
doors of the plants are closed, with
no idea when they will be opened.
Mr. Rothschild as good aa said so
Monday in London when, speaking
of the slack dctiHiid for these sccu-
rU'uv, he faid the strike tmiot be
settled before there would lie much
improvement in the market.
hut the public as well as the strik
ers and tho Steel companies suffer
from these strikes because they re
duce stocks, run up price and tho
coi, sinners have to pay thee price,
if they can get what they want,
which they can't always do, and lor
this reason the sooner the dis
putants come to an agreement the
he'ter for all. Wilmington Star.
