Mnrlo Nlcholovna met tho train that brought me to the Russian cap Hol. I had seen her Inst In London, n typical Russlnn Indy, somewhat, Inxy, decidedly luxurious and not a little self-centered. Now nho came down the station platform cloaked In gray serge, her graceful head veiled like a nun's for even tho empress, her daughters and all the grand duchesses now arc wearing this costume. "Mario Nlcholovna explain this dres?" "('all It nn outward sign of an In ward ehnnso!" she suggested. "Does the uniform Indicate wlmt Russian fashionables aro wearing?" "Sar. rather what Russian Women nre thinking." Below In the Norsk I Prospect, the chief thoroughfare of Petrograd and one of tho finest streets In Europe, companies of new recruits dragged quaint kit boxes over tho snow, hun dreds of soldiers In kneeboots and long gray coats thronged tho broad pavements and scores of women In red cross cloaks and nun-llko veils hurried to or from military hospitals. It was Impossible to distinguish princess from peasant for both wore bluo checked apron sand heavy wool en gloves. "You see," observed Marie Nlch- olovna, "tho bar has waked us up. In tho old days everything happened at night, so wo naturally slept half the days. There were the court and tho great landowners and half a mil lion relatively prosperous people. "I confess that wo women lived like orchids shut away from tho win ter cold, nut you must admit that even with rurs Russia lias a pitiless winter climate. It is because wo saw little of cvery-day llfo that we for got thoro aro peoplo that havo no furs. t "Tho war found us unprepared. Mother Russia always pays dearly for being unready. It will take a year to get our fighting forces organlxed. nut even now Russian armies havo invaded Austria and Germany at six points and, and the war has In vaded our lives for wo women aro thinking. "In the beginning when our troops crossed the frontier, wo women fled to tho churches for comfort In re ligion. It was all so sudden, so ter rible. Wo could still fell tho last kisses of our men folk on our lips. They say that French women did the same, and Serbians and Austrlans and Germans. Poor souls, of course they love their men too! Tho Eng lish women wo do not know about. They do not toll. "After tho first shock wo real ized that there can bo no faith with out works. So we began to organize. In tho most disorderly country on earth women began to organize. How else could we do our share? "Tho empress, her daughters, all tho women of the Imperial family, are working, actually working, In hospitals. Tho Grand Duchess Vlad imir has 50 princesses nursing on the ambulance trains, tho Grand Duchess Sorgo directs hundreds of women In red cross dispensaries. "Hero in Petrograd, more than 1000 miles from tho front, 10,000 womeii volunteered for any service. It did not matter at all which knew how to read or write as long as they could do tho work. I am on tho con valescent "corps. Fifteen hundred of us report In uniform dally at 9:00 o'clock In tho morning. "Wo cannot let sick soldiers return to tenements which no ono has In spected their wounds would novor heal. Hut when wo see horrible hov els wo begin to ask 'What of tho women aud children who must live thoro?' "I asked Prlnco Oblonsky, Grado nachallnk of Petrograd, who was to blame for tho existence of such lairs and ho pleaded Ignoranco, Well, If ho does not know why Is ho general mayor of tho city? Onco wo women havo something to say there will bo another typo of general mayor. "Yes, I know how strango this must sound but do yoti know that half tho babies born in such places dio whllo still Httlo children. Why? None of my friends lose their bab ies. And the poor, poor mothers aro so eager that we other women ad vise them. How gladly wo would if we could, "We women thought to help In the red cross and we discovered tho war that Is behind war." ".Marie Nlcholovna, this time next year you and your 1500 will be de manding a vote!" "Well, why do you laugh?" In quired Mario Nlcholovna.
