The Grand Duke Peter Nicholaevitch
one Of the leaders of the reactlonary
party IN Russia. is great friend OF
Theophilus. The grand duke always had
cousin and now. OF course. he is increas-
ing /. through the monk who favors the
anti-reform party. This douoie-barfe!eo

can threaten the cars aEsolutism, but
lie is rather stupid, and enterprlsing peo-
pie with reacticnary opinions hoodwink
him at every step. knowing that he is
favorite of the cars and can, therefore,
get hold of money. The grand duke has
an aid-de-camp, who is very clever
daughtsman and hoped thereby to attract
attention at court, where he was ignored.
He persuaded Peter MISUNDERSTANDING
Theophilus-that the army would be far
more popular and powerful If 1t were
more attractive to young noblemen, and
that the only way to make 1t more at
tractive was to change all the uniforms.
The grand duke agreed and told him to
prepare sketches. which were laid before
the car They looked so pretty that his
majesty was captivated and ordered
them The sketches were sent to the
minister Of war backed by an imperial
decree and the poor minister was obliged
to dress the troops accordingly. The new
uniforms are expensive and impractical to
the last degree. Officers in line regi
ments now have to pay as much for their
uniforms as those in the cavalry formerly
paid, SO that poor men shun the army
more than ever. One of the absurd In
novations introduced in this way is the
rule that gendarmes must wear two
swords-one on the right side and one on
the left. Naturally their freedom OF ac-
ton is much hampered.

months, but the car soon discovered
that he was poorly educated and low in
his tastes. The monk fell into complete
disfavor when his imperial master found
that he was addicted to drink.
The late John Of Cronstadt who was
not only the favorite Of the present car,
but OF his father. Alexander Ill. as well.
was of another type. All Russia looked
upon him as saint. ard thousands OF
people gave him their fortunes that lie
might divide them among the sick and
poor. When lie went about in the streets
crowds ran to look at him and kiss the
hem of his robe. He had great ideas of
the empire and. naturally. placed the
church before anything else-hence the
power of the holy synod during his life
time, for he influenced two cars to en-
courage it as much as possible. He Is
said to have performed miracles, and the
Russian people fiocked to his humble
house at Cronstadt to be cured of their

But, though John OF Cronstadt inf1u-
enced Nicholas ii to be intolerant with
those of his subjects who are not ortho-
dox. he held aloof from court intrigue.
and was. therefore, far less dangerous
than Brother Theophiius. In spite OF the
cars entreaties he refused to occupy
apartments at court, or to become
bishop, but returned to his humble room
at Cronstadt, which was hung round with
ikons and priestly robes. Naturally,
many charlatans gathered round him and
exploited the credulous In his name. The
sect of Johannites. who pretended to wor-
ship him as a god. became notorious to-
ward the end Of his life, and soon after
he died the czar ordered the holy synod
to excommunicate them.

be made a bishop before long. The car
