1888 the Kremlin, then an important

Most Americans have gotten their

Is unfortunate and some day Mexico

our sister republic awakens to the

Juarez is an adobe city, which is to
say that it is of one drab gray mono
tone, relieved here and there by white
washed porches and shutters painted a
pale sky-blue. In this 1t resembles
most other Mexican towns, but its
streets are narrowed and worse kept.
Its houses more in need of repair and
its street cleaning department more
completely nonexistent, If such q
rhrase is permissible, than in almost
any other Mexican city Of its size.

In the early part Of the fourteenth
century Ivan Danilovitch of Vladimir
took the title of grand prince of Mos
COW and moved the government from
Vladimir to Moscow. From that time
until the beginning Of the eighteenth
century, when the administration was
transferred to st. Petersburg, the
Kremlin remained the seat Of gov
eminent.
Time after time, together witE The
rest of the city of Moscow, the Kre,a-
lin has been burned, the last instance
being in 1912, when it was occupied by
Napoleon, and the Inhabitants started
CONGREGATIONS throughout the city
which forced the Little Corporal to
commence his disastrous retreat from
Russia. Napoleon's headquarters were
in the Kremlin. and, while the flames
there were not SO destructive as in the
remainder of the city, the fire attained
sufficient magnitude to compel the
French to evacuate.

crosses. More and more airplanes and
dirigibles are being armed with them,
and naval airplanes are equipped With
such devices to exterminate German

of the treasury repose the crowns of
the early cars, several thrones, war
trophies and miscellaneous curiosities.
In the arsenal is great collection Of
weapons and arms taken in conflict.
The Kremlin was the second capital
of the empire after the removal Of the
government to Petrograd. Within its
walls is the great palace completed In
1S49, and here, too, are the most Won
derful churches and cathedrals Of the
country. Up to the dethronement Of
Nicholas the Kremlin was the eccles-
iastical center of Russia.
The acropolis is full of memories Of
Ivan the Terrible, whom Tolstoy called
the 'great BEAST" and in the network
Of underground passages which under
lies it is supposed to be buried the
library of that scholarly, but brutal,
ruler.
In 1905 the citadel was the center Of
revolutionary disturbances, and here
in February Of that year the Grand
Duke Sergius was assassinated. And
now the historic place, the nucleus of
the city Of Moscow, and the seat of
Russian autocracy, again figures In
Slavic turmoil.
