“Kaiser's [ntrigue Made Use of Spiritnalism

¥rom the very commencement of
her iifé as Empress of Russia, Alex

iy and utter disregard for the empire
wnd for its people
The fact that she was Garman went
far to allenate those who should have
been her loyal subjects. The Rus
wians are a loyal nation, but from the
moment of her marriage there had
heen a growing hatred of Germans,
It had already become the custom
for many weaithy members of the
aristocracy and rich landed proprie
tors to absent themselves in London,
Paris, Rome, or the Riviera for many
months each yvear. leavin® thelr vast
cutates In the hands of German land
ugents, who, being endowed with un
limited powers, filled the best posts
with their own countrymen, thus
spreading a network of Germans u.ll‘
aver the country. These Germans, in
turn, treated the peasantry in many
cases with actual cruelty.
Agaln, in the factories, the foremeén
were mostly Germans, hated by thtx
workmen, and in every walk of |

Without doubt it was vnwise of her

deliberately snubbed or dismissed
upon the slightest pretext, 5
More than once the TsarMza has
sald, when we have been seated
alone:
“My dear Zeneide, these Rupsians
are being deluded by Gfeat Britain, |
am more than ever convinced that
our fuiure welfare and safety con.
tinge to be in an allianee with Gor-“
many. 1 quite agree with suuvh!."i
It was not my place to differ from
her. Therefore I held my tongue and
deflected upon the secret knowledge
I held.
Bhe certajnly was not a Russian
Empress, for she did not show Rus
sian feelings to the Russian people. |
Intrigue and hypnotism were the
two outstanding features of the life
of my imperial mlntmnwfldan the
Emgperor was what in /'8 u)clety
parlance is known as “spooky,” and
in consequence spiritualistic seances
were constantly held in secret, some
of the most renowned “mediums” of
Kurope being commanded to Tsars
koe Selo, or to she palace of the Grand
Duke Nicholas (since sold) in the
Itallan street in Petrograd, where the
sittings were held in strictest privacy.
Tsar's Cabinet of “Mediums.”
AVhat went on there was truly
amazing, I can assert that because
on more than one‘gccnnmn I have been
present at those welrd secret seances.
The spirit of Alexander 111 was inva
riably invoked, and his son would con
sult him upon all kinds of affairs of
state, even to the appointment of
Ministers and the dismissal of others,
Impending reforms were also de
seribed and submitted. Thus the Rus
#fan Kmpire was being governed by a
number of spiritualistic “mediums,”
who too often received secret hints
from the KEmpress' before they ap
peared in the presence of the Czar.
Like many others, the ’l‘mrnm,l
though she believed in hypnotism, was
suspicious of the®e who claimed to ho‘
able to eommunicate with the dead.,
She agreed with me that there was
certainly some occult’ power of 'whlchl
we &till remain in ’!’nonnco, but that
the frauds practicéd under the guise
of spiritualism wcrec:o many as to
bring the whole science into discredit.
Hence she was often enabled to plny*
an all-powerful part in Russian policy
by imposing upon her hu-bnna!
through the agency of the “mediums.”
Many gross frauds were, 1 know,
practiced at thede seances. In more
than one case, I know, the Tsaritza
sent very handsome and anonymous
presents to the foreign spiritualist
who had currlc‘sd out her suggestions.
Here is ons *nltnnce.
She wished for the dismissal of old
Prince Dolgorouik from the post of
Ooverrfog General of Moscow, and to
replace him by the Grand Duke Serge
.Afil:rxundmvm-h, who had married her
sister Elisabeth.
Old Prince Dolgorouki, brother of
“Bandy” Deolgorouki, had filled the
post for many years, and was one of
the most popular of Governors. Mos
cow loved him. He was a merry, easy
going, good-humored, old-fashioned |
Russian, who knew every trait in the
people over whom he ruled.
Suddenly it wag known that he was
to make way for the Emperor's uncle.
The appointment was deeply resented
by the people, who saw in it the work
of thg German Tsaritza's hand. Dol
worou‘(l came to Tsarskoe Selo as
soon as he knew that he was to be
dismissed. I had a ?hal with the
dear old man, and I found that h
heart was broken.
* “Ah! my dear mademoiselle,” he
sald, Hfilklll? his head, “Germany in
deed rules Russia nowadays!”
Ten minutes later he had audience
in! His Majesty, and received his dis
missial. fte died, like s 0 many others,
in obscure retirement about two years
later; but he never knew that his
downfall had been effected by the
pald-for suggestion of a certain spir
itualist from Paris! - !
Thig move on the part of the Tsa
ritza was n most unfortunate one.
e t’:t that her sister had married
the Gfand Duke, a tactless, arrqgant
and brutal fellow, made it patent that
the appointment jwas at the instiga
tion -of the Germanophil party; in
consequence, Moscow despised the
Empress to such a marked degree that
the chief of the secret police warned
Her Maljesty not to go near this city.
Grudges were «now being nursed
against “the German” on all sides.
Her unpopularity'was observed every
whr-r:‘.. while this dissatisfaction was
increased by her failure to 5." an
héir to the House of Romanoff.
"1 hate these detestable peoplo.{
Zeneide,” she said to mge one sum
‘mer's day when we were enjoying (ha‘
f-‘noo of the beautiful gardens at
Avadia, “Thay will never know the(
benefits of éivilization until they are
under owr German rule. “The Empe
ror William tells me so always.”
I sighed, and remained silent, for{
already saw the handwriting on th
wall, The attitude she had adopted
was one of open hostiiity. Any at
tempt at conciliation she disregarded.
She knew she was unpopular, and
gloried in it, belieying that Germany
‘was the super-nation destined to rule
the world, She did not count the af
fections of the people, because she did
not déire them, This she had many
times told me. |
| Last Tsar Was a ‘Poor Fool”
~ Meanwhile, Nicholas, though the
fact was clearly concealed from the
diplomati€ @epresentatives of the |
powers--whom Alexandea Feodorov
‘n;. by the way, had nicknamed
“those little tin-gods in cocked hntn"‘
i»wcllowod her extraordinary control
over State affairs, |
Peor misguided man! ' |
Believing as he did in her woman's
intuition and wisdom, he allowed her
to have powers that his father had
never allowed to the Empress Marie,
and he never dreamed that, while the
country did not trust her, she was at
the same time, alas! the too willing
catspaw of Berlin,
Another action of hers which
aroused the people to fury occurred
one summer's day at the railway sta-f
tion of Gratchina. We were on our
way to Reval, where we were to g’i‘n
the Imperial yaeht for a cruise. e

the luxurious traveling nwon, when
the Emperor rose and nt to tha
window to look out, As he did so
the people in the other train cheered
him, while at the same moment a
priest, whose name afterwards was
found to be Raevsky, stood at “the
window of the compartment opposite
and, mude the sign of the cross In

The Tsar removed his cap, and
bowed reverently. ‘Then, turning to
hiz wife, he called her over,
She rose and went to the window,
whereupon the priest again made the
sign of the cross. But Her HQIQ'Q'
deliberately turned her back pon
him, and impetuously exclaimed:
She Noeded Blessing Later.s
“Why de you worry me, Nikkl,
about these miserable ym‘uty 1

The Tsar sighed, Lut made ng re

well-known Pestchersky Monastery
at Kiev, ¥Far and wide the incident
was described; and the Russians, be
ing so religious a peonle; boiled over
with flerce indignation that “the Ger
man” should have rofu-ed' the
father's blessing.
It was, 1 téel confident, this inci
dent of which I had been an eye
witness that was responsible for a
recrudescence of fierce nihilist plot
ting. A ’
For nearly five years since 'the
death of Alexander the revolutionists
had made no personal attempt
against their Majesties. That there
were again many nihilist “circles” in
various citles in Russia was well
known to the ue({et police. There
had been an ingenious and well
cohcealed plot to assassinate the
Imperial pair on their way to the
Kremlin for their coronation; but the
secret police had scented it, its au
thors had been arrested, and by the
orders of Prince Dolgorouki, as Gov
ernor of Moscow, they had been ex
lled to the dreaded quicksilver mjines
of Nerchinsk, in Siberia.
" The Empress, hearing of this, at
once conceived an idea. Azybody
who was an obstruction to thé Ger
man policy of peaceful penetration,
or who attempted to thwart her will,
should be exiled,
Tsaritza's Own Spy.
Now she had already in seecret in
her personal service—though not half
a dozen people in the world knew of
it——a man named Nicholas Eich. To
him she frequently granted private
audience:, He was a short, ferret
eye® little man of about 60, with
grayish beard, high cheekbones, andl
somewhat dwarfed of stature; and
it ru his duty to presecute any in
quiries she wighed to make concern
ing the private affairs of both her
enemies and her friends.
Eich w German-born, like her
self, but ‘r’aturallzed as ‘a Russian,
and was an ex-agent of the Third
Section of the Ministry of the Inte
rior, or political police. As an a‘efit
he was just as unscrupulous as he
was successful, and, well paid as he
undoubtedly was, he performed much
dirty and disgraceful work for his
Imperial employer.
At the palace he posed as the rep
resentative of a well-known firm of
Jewelers in Paris, and the reason
‘for the audiences granted to him was
concerning purchases of Jewels, of
;vhl‘;eh the Empress was passionately
ond,
I was one of the very few perlom‘
who knew the fellow's true calling,
and Alexandra Feodorova had im-
Pressed updn me the necessity of ab
solute secrecy,
“Eich is really wonderful!” she
would sometimes declare. “No se
cret, however well guarded, is safe
from him. He must employ dozens of
people to wateh and make inquiry. |
. Without doubt he did, He wils,
of course, known to his late col
leagues. of the people, who belieyed
that he had peen prémoted to un
other department of the police minis
try, for none dreamed that he was
the private spy of the Empress her-}
self, &r that he was directing the ac
’tlvlues of the German agents no‘w‘
filling the country—Cermans who
‘were establishing themselves in va-!
irmun capacities, vowing devotion to‘
‘thelr new country, but in secret pre
paring o betray it into the hands of
the Kaiser when the time was rlpe,'
Thougn I was aware of the truth,
yet even Madame Narischkine, the
favorité mistress of the robes, re
‘mained In ignorance. The Empress.l
no doubt, feared to trust her dark
secrets with a wogum so straightfor
'ward and g 0 loyal to Russia, and
‘whom she like® and found so useful
because she was the authority at court
upon all difficult points of etiquette.
Very often at the Palace of Peter- |
hos or at Tsarskoe Selo the man Eigh
Iwould bebrought to me by one of thel
imperial servants, for he carried a
‘special pass, signed by the Empress,
which admitted him through the
dozen official and police barriers
which walled us off from the outer
world.
| Plots Against Dynasty.
| From the moment of Nikki's acces
’slon there hgd been rumors of Nihilist
plots and sinister whisperings of des
perate conspiracies afoot in Paris, in
London and in Zurich against the
‘dynasty. . '
The Emperor's attittfde, however,
was one of supreme.indifference. He
could not believe that any Russiam’s
\hmm would be raised against him. He
smiled at the serious warnings given
by his close ftiend Meyendorff and
those of his' Mhlluters. One day, at
table at Tsarskoé Selo, when the im
perial pair were lunching en famile,
only Madame Narischkine and myself
ing present( he helped himself to
mn;e pilaff——the servants always
leaving the dishes on the table and
retiring whenever their majesties were
alone—and, while doing so, remarked
carelessly :
“The excellent Greveritiz has just
been trying to chillymy blood regard
ing a plot which he declares is being
prepared against. us somewhere—at
some spot avhich the police have not
yet discovered. It is to be hombs, he

“But, Nikki, you should be caret

anxiously. *“Of late there have bnnl

you have ridiculad. 'R*mber that

i “My dear Alix, please do not wor

“It disturbg me to think that your
life may be in dire danger,” his wife
answered. “Scarcely a week goes by
but you receive letters #rom those
who know what your enemies intend.”
Gapon Knows It.
“The threatened man is the one who
lives longest. Father Gapon has said
{BO, and I belieye him.” »
’ “Ah, yes. Somebody has sald that
| the father is a very remarkable man,”|
efclalmed the Empress. “I must see
f him, Zeneide, Please remember that.”
! “I fanecy he is a political wire-puller
' who lives under the cloak of rellglon."{
| Nicholas remarked. “I have some
isunplclon that he is. though Michael}
declares that he is a very plous and
,well-meanlng man, and extremely‘
popular with the masses.”
|~ “Well, Nikki, do, I beg of you, take
all precautions,” urged the Empress
{wnh considerable anxiety. “Order the
Okhrana” (the special police employed
in guarding the sovereign) “to re
double their vigilance-and double their
guard upon you. One can not be too
careful.” 3
“Bah! They will not harm me,” the
Tsar answered her, being, of course,
in utter ignoranee that the reason of|
that flerce recrudescence of revolu
tionary activity was solely on account]
of Alix's Germanophil views and in
’fluence upon the national life of Rus-J
sia. M
; Nicholas, as he stood there in his
dark-blue undress uniform, did not
give one the impression of the_ ran-‘
corous man he really was. In ap
earance he was a quiet, Inoflc~nslve(
little man, leading a mechanical kind
of life, devoid of interest and careless
of the gravest events. In reality,
however, his cruel, hard nature was
still brooding-~over imaginary insults
he had receivéd while heir to the
, throne; while the merest suggest!on;
that any of his subjects were guilty
of revolutionary ideas was sufficient
to cause their lifelong exile, often
without either proof of being given a
chance of defending themselves. _

THE FLU
INCURABLE
~ BUT
PREVENTABLE
Df. Burkhart, just home from Mi
ami, Fla., where he spends his win
ters, is indignant to learn in his
absence that many of his xegresenm—
tives, in their enthusiasm, have rec
ommended his vegetable compound ae
a cure for the Flu.,
Dr. Burkhart wishes to state with
emphasis that his remedy will not
cure the Flu, but-he is enthusiastic in
his claims, l\d he is supportefl by
the testimony ®f thousands, that his
vegetable compound will prevent ghe
Flu and kindred ailments.
Dr. Burkhart contends that nearly
all sickness is caused from negiect
and that if one but keeps his inner
organs working freely no disease can
alt’sek the body. v
ith this statemenf and eommon
sense to guide you, can you afford
to, or will you deny vyourself and
family the protection of Dr. Burk
hart's Vegetable Compound, a 30-day
treatment, which can be had at all
druggists for the trifling sum of 25¢?
No home, no person, should fail to
have and always keep on hand this
famous remedy and take same reg
'nlurly as directed and keep well,
What cheaper insurance against
sickness could one possbly carry? So
don't wait until this dread, malady
overtakes you, for noglfld spells sui

Kills Pain
Knights Templar to
The constantly crowded condition
of Atlanta hotels and rooming houses
hags made it necessary to postpone for
one week the grand conclave of the
Georgia Comm?ndery of Kmights
Templar, scheduled to be held in_ this
city during the second week in May.
It was found that the Southern Bap
tist Convention will be In session
here that week, and Atlanta can not
accommodate two such large gath
erings at the same time. So the
Knights Templar mnr give way, and
will have their conclave May 21, 22
and 23.
Whenever any branch of the Ma
sonic order gathers in Atlanta it
means the bringing to the city of
hundreds of Georgians, in addition to
| those particlpating directly in the
[ official business of the meeting. It
always has been a problem to handle
~ the thramgs, and when it was found
~ that the Baptigts had arranged for
a monster gathering on q‘t same
days, the matter was put up to Right
~ Emipent Sir F. W. Clarke, of Savan
nah, who decided that the dates must
be changed, since the” Baptists could
- not move their meeting forward or
sbackward.
