Often DESTROYED hv Eire.

Time after time, together with tbs
rest of the city of Moscow, the Krem-
lin has been burned, the last occasion
being In 1912 when It was occupied
by Napoleon and the inhabitants Of
the city themselves started the con-
flagrations in all parts of the city. 1t
was indeed these fires which forced
the little corporal to commence his
disastrous retreat across the snow
bound steppes of Russia. Napoleon
had his headquarters in the Kremlin.
and While the flames were not so de-
structive there as In other parts of the
city, yet they forced evacuation.
