She waa only allowed to ! take with her fifteen boxes of cloth: lag. At first sight this may seem ' quite a considerable amount, but it must not be forgotten that the whole! i wardrobe of fire women and an emi prehensible hat it would not suffice for an exile of long duration. To this must be added the impossibility of procuring any kind of clothing in Tobolsk. The princesses possess in kll,. only four costumes, and are obliged to be contented with those. As regardaftheir jewelry, they were forced to leave it all in Petrograd. "The former empress occupies herself greatly with her children, but instead of encouraging them to be resigned, she strives, the whole time to keep up in their memory the remembrance of the past. It is the impossibility of corresponding which revolts her the most. The few letters she receives are carefully censord beforehand by the officers of the "body guard."

But up to the present j the emperor has neither written nor dictated anything. "The ground floor of the residence of the forme^ imperial family is occupied by a company of soldier's ironically termed "the emperor's body guard." The remaining two ^ stories form the apartment of the dethroned monarch?Colonel Romanoff. It consists of four large and four small rooms, which are fur-' nished in the simplest manner.

The rooms are heated by means of primitive brick stoves. The largest room is only five yards in length and three in breadth.

The masters ^ of the hours, in Petrograd, even consider the authorization to frequent the public baths, once a week, as i. quite an exceptional favor. Cfh those t occasions they are invariably escorted by four officers and a squadron of r soldiers. It is these same officers, ? who take upon themselves the pur- r chasing of all small houseold necessities, not wishing to entrust this duty to the imperial family's four servants, a v#vet and three maids. "The inhabitants of Tobolsk do not show any interest in, or hostility towords the exiles. The only visitors who have access to the former t emperor are Baron Fredrichs and General Vojekoff, who are also set- e tied in Tobolick, and who enjoy his fullest confidence."
