As soon as the procession of her majesty,the ex-czarina, had started for the Cathedralof the Assumption, the high court dignitarieswho had assembled at the palace receivedthe Imperial insignia in the throne hall andtook up the stations allotted to them in thecortege of the emperor. Before the proces-sion started, the grand almoner of their ma-jesties, bearing a large golden cross, studdedwith jewels, and assisted by two deacons,carrying a golden bowl full of holy water,sprinkled the whole route which was to befollowed by their majesties from the palaceto the Cathedral of the Assumption. The ex-Empress Marie Feodorovna's departure forthe Cathedral of tho Assumption having beenannounced, the czar and czarina made theirentrance into the hall ;md seated themselveson their throne, which was a magnificentcanopy.

THE IMPERIAL CORTEGE.A moment later a signal announced that

tho time had arrived for the departure ofthe imperial cortege, and the latter movedtoward the cathedral. The grand proces-

. sion was headed by the chevalier guards ofthe ex-Empress Marie Feodorovna. Thesewere followed by Cossack soldiers and peo-ple, delegations from the nobility, thesenate and the church. The imperialinsignia, borne by high court dignitar-ies, Included the collar of the order ofSt. Andrew, of the czarina, the sword, thestandard and the seal of the empire; theImperial mantles of their majesties, theglobe; the scepter, and the crowns of theempress and emperor.

As their majesties approached the en-trance of the cathedral, the metropolitan ofMoscow pronounced the usual allocation, themetropolitan of St. Petersburg presentedthe cross of their majesties, and the metro-politan of Kieff presented them with holywater. Entering the cathedral, their majes-ties bowed to the knee three times before aholy door, and venerated the saintly Images.They afterwards took their seats on thethrone of the Czars Michael Feodorovitchand John 111. The archbishops, archman-drites and officiating clergymen placed them-selves in two ranks between the thrones andthe holy dooi, and the choir chanted thepsalm "Miserlcordlam et Judicium CantaboTibl, Domine."

The dignitaries carrying the imperial

mantles stationed themselves on the firststep. Other auxiliaries to the pageantsword of the empire stood on the secondstep of the throne, while the bearer of thestandard occupied a position on the thirdstep. Other auxiliaries to the pageant

were grouped about in order. The cere-mony of the coronation and anointmentwas then accomplished as follows:

The metropolitan of St. Petersburg mount-ed the steps of the throne, placed himselfIn front of the emperor, and invited hismajesty to make before his faithful subjects,and In a loud voice, his profession of or-thodox faith, Pid presented him with theop<-n book from which the emperor recitedthe symbol of the faith. After this the met-ropolitan of St. Petersburg pronounced theritual.

of Kieff mounted the steps to the throne.The emperor arose, and, taking off the collarof the order of St. Andrew, ordered that theimperial mantle with the collar in diamonds,of that order, be presented to him. Theywere presented on cushions, by the metro-politans of St. Petersburg and Kieff, whoalso assisted his majesty to put on the man-tle. The metropolitan of St. Petersburg thenpronounced the words:

"In nomine Patris et FIIII et SpirltusSancti. Amen."

THE CROWN ASSUMED.

One of the assistants of his majesty adjust-ed the Imperial mantle. His majesty receivedthe pontifiral benediction of the metropolitanof St. Petersburg, who placed his hands onthe czar's head In the form of a cross, recit-Inp the two prayers prescribed by the ritual.The prayers terminated, the emperor orderedthat the imperial crown be presented to him.Thereupon, the metropolitan of St. Peters-burg took the imperial crown and handed Itto the emperor, who took it in his hands andplaced it on his head.

The metropolitan then In a loud voice pro-nounced the prescribed allocution.

In a similar manner his majesty caused tobe presented to him the scepter and theglobe, and having taken the scepter in hisright hand and the globe in his left hand, heseated himself on the throne. A few mo-ments later his majesty arose and placed thescepter and globe upon cushions. The mon-arch then called upon her majesty, the Em-press Alexandra Feodorovna, to approach, andshu knelt beside him on a velvet cushion,richly embroidered with gold. His majestythereupon solemnly lifted the crown from hisown head and touched with it the foreheadof the empress. He then replaced the crownupon his own head. His majesty afterwardstook up the crown of the empress and placedit on the head of her majesty. Her majesty'simperial mantle and the collar of the Orderof St. Andrew were next presented with thesame ceremony. This done, her majesty tookher seat on the throne, while the emperoragain took the scepter in his right hand andthe globe in his left. The archdeacon nextproclaimed the imperial title in extenso. Thebells of the cathedral and all the other sa-cred edifices throughout Moscow were rung,and a salute of 101 cannon shots were fired.

The emperor then arose, handed the scepterand the globe to the attendants, and kneltdown to recite from the book presented himby the metropolitan of St. Petersburg, theprayer prescribed for the occasion. The pray-er terminated, the metropolitan and all pres-ent knelt and in the name of the nation of-fered up prayers to the Almighty. After theprayer, the metropolitan of St. Petersburgread a short allocution to the emperor andthe choir intoned the "Te Deum" to the soundof the bells of all the churches of the Krem-lin.

During this ceremony the czar stood withbared head. The reading of the Holy Gospelfollowed, and two of the archbishops pre-sented the Holy Book to their majesties tokiss. The anthem terminated, and the of-ficiating clergy having been notified that theholy door was open, the two archbishops, as-sisted by archdeacons, advanced from thealtar towards his majesty to announce to thelatter that the holy ceremony of the anoint-ment was to begin. Thereupon his majesty,having handed his sword to one of his au-gust assistants, descended from the throne,and, preceded by the scepter, the globe andthe crown, went towards the holy door, fol-lowed by the Empress Alexandra Feodorovna.On both sides of his majesty were his assis-tants.

HOLY UNCTION.

After the holy unction, his majesty placedhimself on the right, in front of the image ofthe Savior, and the empress approached theholy door, where the metropolitan of St. Pe-tersburg anointed her on the forehead, pro-nouncing the words of the ritual. The metro-politan of St. Petersburg afterwards intro-duced the emperor into the sanctuary by theholy door, the other prelates officiating hold-ing up the imperial mantle from the momenthe passed the door.

Roberts wasn't talking to hear MnuM IIeither. He Is built differently. For year*

he has been in the service of the United Stater-government. He has traveled around amongthe sage brush of Idaho and earned the repu-tation of being a fearless officer and a goodman for a criminal to keep as far away fromas possible. He Is known throughout Idahoas "Sid" Roberts, and he Is Just as determinedas some of the desperate characters whosebullets have left scars on his arms and body.

Roberts has heretofore been called upon tolook after a different class of criminal work.But last January Salmon City, Idahu. had asensation, caused by James Dowling. Dow-ling formerly lived in St. Paul, but went Westsome years ago and finally opened a taloonIn Salmon City. He married the daughter <•'a pioneer of that place, and things movedalong much the same a.s they usually do fora year or two. Then Dowllng fell out withhis wife, and the rase went Into conn to de-termine who should have poneMlon ol apretty little girl who had been born to them,which was two and a half years old. Thecourt decldod that Mr*. Dowling should havethe little girl. That was Jan. « this >. ,ir.and at the particular time that the |ndgemade the decision Salmon City li.nl oni \u25a0\u25a0!the biggest .sensations that It had ha.l formany years.

He. how.ever, broke out of Jail and «is now a fugitivefrom justice.

With the disappearance of the little girl be*gan a search on the part of the mother forher. Three months passed before any traceof her was found. Then there weal an Ink-ling to Idaho that the little girl was in Mon-tana, and Mr. Roberts waa started out to tryand find her.

"It was al! new business to me," laid Mr.Roberts yesterday. "I have been used toprowling around In the sag© bru>-h. I'vechased Indians and been in home prett-places.

got here yesterday morning. To make -ur«of doing the thing right I got a writ of habeascorpus and this forenoon Mrs. Dowllng andI went over to get the girl. I left hermother at the Margaret street station andwent up to the house. I would say that thepeople treated me as nicely there as I everwas treated In my life. But the little onewas timid and I didn't want to frighten her,so I left an officer and went back for hermother. We went up and her mother wattedIn the front yard while I called the little oneto the door. The minute she came out andsaw the woman she Just emld, 'Mamma,mamma," and ran cut and put her arms

around the mother's neck. They sat on *helawn embracing ea-.'h other for several min-utes. I am not given to crying particularly,but Iam not ashamed to aay that I cried my-

self at the sight."Of course, I am pleased that I fc-und the

little one, as well as her mother. Mrs. Dow-ling's relatives are among the be •

Salmon City. Her father is one of theneera. He used to kill rattlesnakes and drivestage where the city now stands. He wasafterwards successful in business, workedhard and has retired."

Mr. Roberts was asked If he did not fearan effort would be made to take the littleone from him before he got home, and it war-then he remarked:

"I will start for Idaho with that lltt'and her mother tonight. I will see that shegets there, or there will be some shooting onthe way. If it comes to that I can probablyget my Iron out as quickly as any man wintries to take that girl away from me."

The deputy marshal, Mrs. Dowllng and th«little girl left on the Northern Pacific 1—***night at 8 o'clock for the West.
