Despite the multitudinous annoyances brought by tho strange costumes among tho disconcerted nnd ofton hostile peasant populations, the riders visited many lands. During their recent stay here the llttlo band was given many parties at the American studios and recited curious adventures.

The World correspondent saw Lady Cook tcday at her London residence and ques tioned her as to tho ground for this de- jnnnri. Lady Cook, who spoke with strong emotion, said: 'Yes, 1 havo applied for an exhumation order. No reply will bo given until next week, when nn application will formally bo made by my lawyer. I am determined to bear no longer the aspersions cast upon me by certain persona concerning my poor hunband's death.

(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.) ST. PETERSBURG, April 6. (Now York World Cablegram Special Telegram.) A reported attempt ou tho czar's life at Tsarsko proves unfounded. Tho czar and czarina are living in complete, seclusion tbore. The czarina's health Is very delicate. Her accouchement Is expected this mouth. Though disturbances throughout the chief cities of tho empire, provoked by Pobo- doostzeff's bigoted reprerslon, caused much loss of Ufo nnd sent a large draft of polit ical suspects to Siberia, tho talk of a rev olution la absurd. A revolution can only como hero by the chiefs of tho government and ot tho nrmy combining to deposo the czar, an event about as likely as a con spiracy In tho college ot cardinals to over throw the popo. This country is so vast, thu Inertia of tho peasant class so profound nnd their Ignorance so hopeless that it will tako a century before a revolution can spring from tho people. Iteprelon of Student.

In Kleft three students were mysteriously killed by poison, it Is believed by tbelr follow students, on suspicion of being police spies. The universities would be closed, but the authorities fear the dispersal as' spreading tho center of disaffection. They prefer to keop tho students under ob servation In big bodies. Great constornatlon has been caused at Moscow because ninety students absconded without leavo on a mission to preach so cialism among tho peasants In tho villages. In Charkoff two students were killed and twenty-four wounded in the recent dis turbances. WOMAN ALL IN ONE COLOR Ilndlenl .Notion fur Dres lleform Is I.ii null '! to Nrorn li- the IleniiK of Ilerlln.
