The name of Senator Morton’s family was 
originally Throckmorton, and their ancestry Is 
traced to the Earl Throckmorton in the reign of 
Qufcen Elizabeth. The Senator’s father dropped

followed his example. 
The Grand Duke Paul, the youngest son of the 
Russian Emperor, has lately joined the army at 
the scene of action. With the exception of the 
Grand Duke Constantine, all the male members 
of the Imperial family who have attained man- 
hood are now in active military service. «

edly comfortable.
