Llvldul. and some days before the an
nual fete of the Crimean dragoons, the
czar told tbe colonel that he had in
store a gift for hliu and the regiment--tbe
'czarina had consented to become
their chief. Ills majesty added: "1
shall be there when you and your of
ficers are presented to the empress
and shall wear your uniform. The
only thitig is, I believe I haven't the
nnlfoim of the regiment. . But that
doesn't matter, there is time, if you
hurry, to have one made. You seem
to have mi excellent tailor. Your uni
form lits beautifully. Who made it?"
The colonel gave the name of Kurlch
kess. whereupon his majesty asked him
to arrange that Kurlchkess should
make a uniform for himself, adding,
smiling, "Tell him to do his best and
to turn It out as well as yours."
There Is nest given a seriocomic de
scription of the alarm occasioned
nmong the Kuriclikess household, con
sisting of father, mother and nine chil
dren, when a handsome motorcar stop
pod outside their door 'and a cloaked
general otlicer descended. j
The general said in staccato sen- '
tencps: "You must come with me. 1
Don't be frightened. You'll know '.
later where I'm taking you. I can't
leave without you. We've lost much j
time already. (Set dressed ijulrkly."
The tailor obeyed, went with his can- !
tor and was absent for four days. ;
Mine. Kurlchkess was doubtful wheth- j
er she was n wife or a widow.
Eventually the tailor turned up safe
ami recounted his adventures. Tbe i
drive with the general had lasted two '
hours and a half. Iniring the whole .
journey the general did not address a I
single word to him. When they reach-
eil their destination. Yalta, nil be snid '
was. "Kbiiini Kuriclikess, get out and
follow mo."
lie was assured that be need not be
alarmed: he. would be provided with
lodging and with food, and the next
day he would lie told why he had been
brought to Yalta ami what he bad to
do. He was told be need not try to
escape, as he would be watched.
His fears were dissipated when a
Kurlchkess went on to describe how
God hud helped him in bis work and
how satisfied the czar had been with
the uniform and thanked him for it.
Kurlchkess refused to accept any
thing in payment, but "his" general in
sisted Hint, according to law, ho was
obliged to receive 50 rubles for bis
expenses. Moreover, the general added,
the minister of the court was aware
that Kurlchkess was In debt, and he
gave the tailor nn envelope containing
300 rubles from the minister to dis
charge his obligations.
Kuriclikess was driven back In a
motor to Simferopol, and some days
later an Imperial messenger brought
to bis shop a ease containing a gold
watch and chain. The double eagle
was engraved on the watch, which also
bore the Inscription. "To Khalm Ku
