This church contains the tombs of the imperial family since the founda- tlon of the city. The sarcophagi are nearly alike, being al! plain white marble. To the left of the altar lies the body of Peter the Great, the founder of the modern Empire. Strangely enough. one may visit in Holland a tiny hut in which this same Peter the Great made his home as Q common laborer. and in Sweden one may stand before the grave of his great opponent Charles the Twelfth, so there is more than ordinary interest attached to the last resting place of the greatest Czar. Although the Rus sian nation owes much to Peter the Great, 1t Is also to be admitted that many of its present evils originated in the same Peter, and perhaps ne Is the one man first responsible for the status of teh peasants and all of the under classes in the vast empire today, for though he educated the peo, pie, he also held them down with an iron hand, and his very kindliness on the one side only let them the more keenly realize their thraldom on the other.
 Today, accursed of war; the capital of the Russian Empire has spurned it's teutonic name, St. Petersburg, and officially proclaimed itself in the ma tive tongue, Petrograd; and the myriad spires of the city of churches gleam quivering meath the dun cloud of war; while the nations pulse throbs faster, for all Russia is i'll at ease, and the hand of her peasant class looms dark near the throne of the Car.
