in the National Geographic Magazine.
1t marks the part which escaped the
great conhagration when the outlying
districts of Moscow were burned by
the Russians, who were besieged by
Napoleon The present wall replaced
one OF oak-some 500 years ago
which, like the Great Wall of China
was erected as a defense from the
Tartars.
Within this Enclosure is the imperial
palace, the treasury, the arsenal and
three cathedrals, which for centuries
have respectively beentthe places OF
the browning, the marrying and the
burying of the czars Of this great ma
ton. The Enclosure also contains a
convent and many great monuments

its name. From the rivers opposite

collection of buildings is unsurpassed

the value of those displayed here. 1t
has been aptly stated that they should
not be counted by thousands, but
measured by the peck. To guard them
500 soldiers are constantly in and
around these buildings.
The Ivan or Bell tower is the most
conspicuous structure in the Enclosure
and contains SO bells, two of which
are of silver, the largest Of the col

Mr.. Ziegler was the founder of this com

guidance the company grew and prospered'
When first organized Mr.. Ziegler and
the late w, H. Geers, thea Cashier Of the
Union Bank of Knoxville owned the Cap
ital Stock which was $4,000. Now they have
Capital of 81 oooo which pays an excel
lent dividend every year.
To Mr. Ziegler belongs the credit OF saw.
ing this important industry for our city,
and our citizens feel very grateful to him.
A few years ago an effort was made to have
the factory moved to Knoxville as the finish
ing depart ment was located there. Mr..
Ziegler aided by John NJ. Clark, Cashier Of
the Bank Of Blount County raised the mon
ey to buy the stock and the Southern
Coffin & Casket Co., became permanent
industry of our city.
Mr.. Ziegler says that it is with regret that
he and his most estimable wife, leave Mary
vile to take up their residence elsewhere,
and that they will always have warm
place in their hearts for Maryville and her
citizens. 1t is with genuine sorry that oar
people part with them and we with others
hope they will at least make cur city their
