ST. rETERSBl'RG. April K. Althonfth
in deferens to the -wishes of Count Tol
stoi, the plans for an international cele
bration at Tasnaya Polyana this Summer
of the writer's Jth birthday, to which
delegations from Russia ami abroad liavo
toen Invited, have been abandoned, ad
mirers of the Russian novelist propose to
siKnaiire hts jubilee by the formation of
an international Tolstoi society, similar
to the Goethe. Pante and Shakespearean
societies, designed to study and propa
pute the Ideas of Tolstoi, to collect ma
tcTtnla concerning his life and activity,
and ultimately to purchase the home at
Yasnaya Polyana for a Tolstoi museum.
Celebrations of the anniversary will be
held m St. Petersburg. Moscow and other
cities.
Kcnson ftr Declining.
Tolstoi's reasons for declining the honor
are given In a letter to Michael Slaklio
vlch. in wJiich he writes:
I address myself to .you with a very
great request, namely, to stop the plan
of a Jubilee celebration, which will give
me nothing but pain, and what Is worse,
the consciousness of evil doing. You
know that, particularly at my age. when
I am so near death, nothing Is more
precious than the love of my fellow men.
and I far lest this affection suffer from
this Jubilee. I received yesterday a letter
In which it was said all members of the
Orthodox Church (from which Tolstoi,
as is well known, was excommunicated!
would be affronted by this celebration.
I bad never thought of it in that light,
but what was written was correct. Not
only among the orthodox, but also among
many others, the celebration of my Jubi
lee would provoke evil feelings.
New Novel Written.
Those who love me (1 know them and
they know met need no outward forms to
express their affection. ' Therefore, do
what you can to prevent this celebration i Uanan .noes at Rosenthal's.
and free mc from this sorrow. I shall
ever be thankful."
Count Tolstoi has. it is said, written a
new novel, which will only be published
after bis death. It is entitled "Father
Sergius.' It has for its hero a young
guard officer who retires from the world
and becomes a monk on learning of the
nnchastitj- of a young girl with whom he
has fallen in love. He becomes famous
for sanctity, but Is subjected to repeated
worldly temptations, finally yields to a
tempest of sensual passion, and, after
killing the victim of his lust, leaves the
monastery to become a wanderer upon
the earth.
