BT. PETERSBURG. May SP.-A foreigner
wu marvelling during th rilutlonarr
crisis at tba stolidity of lbs mass of the
Russian people. Would nothing arouse
thamT
"Only on thing could do it," answered
a wis man. "If anybody on earth, even
trie csar, should attempt to enforce a law
forbidding them to cross themselves be
fore the ikons of their church, they would
rise up as one rebellious giant."
Their church is in the marrow of their
bones more than with any other people
In modern Christendom. Its all-pervading
Influence has Just been brought by the
Duma out Into the open life of national
politic.
The first act of legislation 'carrying
through the csar's promise of freedom
of conscience has been presented by the
government. It la addressed to relieve
the grievances of the community, num
bering over 15,000,000 of Russians, known
as the old believers. On it will be mod
elled, subsequently, some more or less lib
eral legislation on behalf of other denom
inations outside the orthodox church.
Nloai Dlsttactloa Draws,
The government bill proposes that the
old believers should be allowed, with
out let or hindrance, to pray and to bap-
Use, marry and bury, according to the
doctrines of their faith; but It expressly
provides that they shall not engage In
propaganda, meaning thereby that their
clergy shall not Invade territories where
their communities do not now exist. The
government draws a distinction between
freedom of conscience and religious liberty,
It maintains that the czar promised ' to
allow all Russians to worship according to
conscience, but that he could never con
fer liberty to propagate In his empire any
religion exoept his own.
fio widespread Is the Interest In yils
matter tnat aitnougn inure are twenty
clergymen in the Duma and eight bishops
In the Council of Empire the spokesmen
of the church have rather been swept aside
and the debate fought out by the national
party leaders. It la especially Important to
keep In mind" that the old believers are
an Important, -conservative ' and loyal ele
ment In the population. In their present
demand for complete religious liberty, In'
eluding . the right to spread their faith,
they are supported by. the radical parties,
who have had nothingl n common with them
n the past. - The obvious reason for Cath
ollcs, Lutherans, Jews, Mohammedans and
agnoatlo socllalists all coming to their sup
port Is that these bodies within the empire
desire to establish a It gal precedent for
publlo . meetings anu public agitation in
behalf of the cauRe which each of them
regards as of foremct importance to Itself,
So a lain ss Old One.
The old believers broke away from tba
main body of the Russian Orthodox church
two and a bait centuries ago, n 1066, on
a question of Interpretation of the text of
Holy Writ. The Scriptures bad previously
circulated In Russia only In parchment
manuscript and many errors of transcrip
tion had crept in through the Increasing
difficulty of deciphering accurately the
old copies.
The authorities of the church under Arch
bishop Nikon decided, to arrest the Increas
ing confusion and have the text regulated
by translating the Scriptures afresh from
the old Greek. Naturally the new veislon
showed differences from the words that
ha been accepted by many thousands of
the moat devout Russian Christians.
They refused to conform to the new
order. Moreover a different way of cross
ing themselves waa ordained after refer
ence to the placing of the hands of saints
in the eld Bysantlne bcly pictures by the
reformers then In control of the church
Intensified their hostility. They abandoned
the orthodox church and were treated as
heretics. The sohism became complete
when they resisted Peter the Great's a
sumption for himself of the headship of
the church as Well as of the state.
Before Peter's day the metropolitan of
Moscow waa a greater personage than the
csar of Musoovy, for the church was both
autonomous and predominant. Once a year
tht metropolitan set out for the' Kremlin
seated astride -of an ass which was led
by the hands of the csar attending him on
foot. Peter changed all that for reasons
f contemporary practical politics.
The church dignitaries Mere influencing
lis wife and son against him because
f his rough and ready modernising meth
Kla. lie defeated the clericals, by the
tingle stroke of appointing himself head
tf the church and making his dignitaries
wear personal obedlenoe to him as much
M if they were officers of his army. Th
ud believers abhorred all this and studied
be archaic texts fervently but secretly,
i bunted, persecuted sect.
Grow ta Wealth- and Naataer.
They kept their Puritan habit of life
and through It grew In number, wealth
and social strength. The fact that they
have today afler two centuries of out
lawry th richest average membership of
tny denomination In Russia has a good
leal to do with the f.lr roused by their
demand for full icUclous freedom.
Many of them are ml.llonalr merchants.
Their members have the beat of th fer
tile lands in Siberia. They own a vast
amount of Inherited property invested in
the land.
In time theirs came to be almost a po
litical doctrine. It is equally against
iourtlers and radicals and stands for a
julld, self-reliant class which hitherto has
had no dealings with the government ex
cept to pay its agents for securing im
munity of worship. When ready money
as very scarce around the court during
the Japanese war, such eminent non
believers as the late Grand Dukes Vladi
mir and Alexis bethought themselves of
the idea of abating the restrictions oa th
old believers In return for a cash navment
of 10,000.000 rubies. f
Alexander Gutchkoff, th leader of th
most numerous party In the present Duma,
the octobrlsta. Is an old believer. H
championed their light to fuller freedom
than the government offers They have
bad to enrich not only police officials, but
city and slat governors, he said. Now
that they are dun with that they have
the right to th freedom of worship prom
ised to all In the October manifesto.
"We are told that they are sympathised
with by th csar," :e added, "but they
cannot have this full freedom. Appar
ently some devil's advocate stand near
to th throne and are urging; Intolerance
nd tanstiolam."
Ksl la th. Hossttsls,
He had seen In th hospitals In Man
churia old believer soldier dying without
the services of their priests and burled like
dogs It was only at th and of th cam
paign and than through ta Grand Ducbeee
"iUaebeth, widow of th Grarid Duk Serge,
that their own clergy were aliowr-d to be
near them.
M. Gutchkoff declared that his pi re was
ot only for It la own community, but fur
II the other deeds In Russia. It was ex
aggerating the ignorance of the people to
say that religious liberty would bring with
it moral confusion and with that political
anarchy.
M. Krljanovsky, assistant minister of
th Interior, announced the government's
decision. It would take care that the old
believers were free within their own placet
ot worship, but it would not allow the
rights of the orthodox church to suffer,
anj there must be no propaganda to the
letter's detriment.
To make th attitude of the monarchists
doubly clear th announcement was made
by s member of the holy synod, which acts
as keeper of the czar's conscience in mat
ters of religion, that whatever liberalising
amendments the Dumas added to the gov
ernment bill Mould be Ignored. "If the
Duma adopt them th Council of Empire
Mill reject them; if th latter adopts tbem
they would still b refused th supreme
sanotlon. The csar is by canon law the
guardian ot the orthodox churoh. He can
not allow the position of heterodox sects
to be Improved to the detriment of his or
thodox people."
The Duma adopted th right of propa
ganda amendment to th government's bill
by 178 votes s gainst 139. The octobrlst vote
was split, thirty members of th' party
voting with th government against their
leader, Mr. Gutchkoff. Th amendment
bas no chance of acceptance In the Coun
cil ot Empire.

FALLIEP.ES in stained glass
Portrait of the Prealaeat of Vraaoa
that Aroaae Ceaelderakl
Criticises.
PARIS, June 1. Charlemagne one
visited the city of La Mans and was so
delighted with It that he nominated him
self honorary canon of th cathedral, an
appointment which Pop Clement VTI In
1388 conferred on his successors forever.
A L Mans artist, Mr. Echlvard, a de
signer of stained glass windows, was re
minded of this fact one day by reading an
account of a stained glass window In tho
Church of St John at Lunebourg, in which
th kaiser Is depicted. ' II decided that
the French president should no longer lack
an honor that had seen paid to the Ger
man emperor and set to work on a de
sign showing M. Fallleres, th president
ot the republic, and therefore, according
to th artist's belief, suocessor to the
kings a honorary canon, clothed In a
canon's cop and kneeling en a devotional
chair.
Th modern and the archaic are' allied
In the design. Th cope Is thrown back
sufficiently to show that M. Fallleres la
wearing evening dress and the grand cress
of the Legion of Honor. The arms of th
cathedral ohapter, three fleurs-de-lis and
three keys are balanced by an escutcheon
ornamented with th Legion of Honor and
the Galllo cock.
Below Is th Inscription In Gothic eharac
ten: "According to tradition. Messire
Armand Fallleres, eighth president of the
French republic, takes In his quality of
chief of state th title of canon ot Saint
Jullen of L Mans"
Long months of work waa spent In mak
ing the glass after th design, and now
that It Is finished It has met with only
a cold welcome. Th spectacle of th pres
ident, during whose term of office churoh
and stat were definitely separated, figur
ing as a canon seems t s"ivs pleasure to
no party or section. A local art society
even refused to sdmtt the window to Its
exhibition, slthough the skill of Its execu
tion is generally admitted.

ST. FKTERSBf Rfl. June 1 The reoorte
concerning the health of the csarina con-
unue io oe uiscouraginff. Always or a
melancholy disposition, the events of the
last few years In Rusnla have deepened
her depresnlon until now there Is no doubt
that she Is on th verge of melancholia.
besides suffering from Ills attendant upon
nervous breakdown.
The czarina, though she has never suc
ceeded altogether In winning the lov of
her adopted people. Is far mere popular
now than she was during the first years
of her married life. Then the Russians
frankly dlstruMed and OJsllked her. Her
expression at that time was sad and rather
discontented. She was very shy and re
tiring and assumed an air of Indifference
to cover these defects, which the court
mistook for coldness.
Then, too, she was largely th victim of
circumstances The horrible accident on
her wedding day when hundreds of per
sons M-er killed and injured filled the
peasants with superstitious fear of her and
her Influence. Lastly, her delay In pre
senting Russia with a male heir to th
throne displeased all the country.
Peasant Havo Fara-t-rea Rev.
But latterly she ha won friends People
have discovered that her sad expression
does not really mean discontent, that her
assumed Indifference masks a kind and
sympathetic nature. The peasants have
forgotten th ill-omened wedding day and
Russia rejoices In th young czarovltch
Yet notwithstanding this gain for the
czarina there la no sadder court In Europe
today than that at Peterhof. All th
world knew that th emperor and em
press live surrounded by guards, that their
food Is specially prepared by trusted hands
and tasted before being served, and that
they cannot go from th palac without
the greatest precaution.
Tet In spite of thee circumstances th
Imperial family leads a simple home life.
There Is no formality In the relations of
th czar and cxarlna with' their ladies and
gentlemen In waiting. And though the
empress has aged and ohanged she remains
gracious and kindly to those about her,
while the czar, though deeply affected by
the trials of his unhappy country, Is still
at times the gay and delightful host of
days gone by.
There are two ladles In waiting In Im
mediate attendajico always Among other
requirements Is the one that they must be
able to play tennis with the czar. Her
ladles In waiting were the first of her peo
ple who learned to love and understand
the empress and they teil many stories of
her kindness and sympathy.
Csar's Home Life.
Th czar tn his home life Is all the most
exacting could wish a devoted husband,
sincerely admiring and deeply in lov with
his clever wife, an affectionate father who
plays with and fondles his children. Until
the troubles ot the last few years ahd the
recent breakdown of the czarina saddened
him th csar was Ilk a gay schoolboy.
He Is not brilliant and his nature Is weak.
but he has a saving sens of humor which
endears him t all who know him. In days
past he dearly loved a good Joke and was
as ready to laugh at his own weaknesses
s at those of persons around him.
Though the world thinks of him as a
despot, he is anything but that in his home.
A friend ot one ot the ladle in waltlii
tells this story to Illustrate how Informal
are the relations of the czar with those In
his entourage. On th day ot th chris
tening of the last 1IU1 princess th ladle
In waiting had man fatiguing duties, and
when all was over this particular lady was
glad to make her way to her apartment
for much needed rest and a chat with the
friend who had com to see her.
Just as they had settled down along came
a messenger from the czar. "Wuuld the
princess come at one and play tennis with
his majesty r
"No," said the lady In waiting calmly to
th amazement of her friend, "I am too
tired after th day's duties" y
And that message was taken to th em
peror, who apparently did not In the least
resent It.
Children Mother' Care.
But th days when the czar took pleasure
In simple fun are past. Now It Is difficult
to rouse him from the depression which
has settled upon him since the czarina's
health has given way.
Th empress, true to her English blood,
Is bringing up her chlldrenln English fash
Ion, with the simplest of diet and the
plainest of dress. She herself, despite the
luxury and richness of Russian fashions,
favors plain tailor mad gowns and only
wears her gorgeous jewels when state oc
casions demand. To see hor In the morn-
