Sale 103 ASYLUM ST. 149 TRUMBULL ST. : HARTFORD, CONN. $34.00 PEASANT-BORN MONK MASTER OF RUSSIA Rasputin Holds Czar's Court Under Mystic Sway. London, July 28.—The muystic peasant-born Russian monk Gregory Rasputin, on whom a murderous at- tack was made by a woman while he was visiting his home in a Siberian Village recently, is described by the St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily, Chronicle as “the. absolute master of the Russias.”” It is cer- tain that no great European court to- day is under such a mystic sway as that which Rasputin has been re- puted to have over Emperor Nicholas of Russia and the whole ' imperial household. It has been the con- cern of Russia for threé years back. The rise of Rasputin has been an enigma to all the nobles of the court wno have not fallen under his in- fluence. His absence from St. Pet- ersburg, during which the attack upon him came, was hoped to mean that he had fallen into disgrace, but just previous to the. news of his. being stabbed, the announcement was made that he had been recalled to the emperor’s palace. Son of Wealthy Peasant. This modern Richelieu is the son of a fairly wealthy peasant of To- bolsk. He had but little schooling and led an uneventful life until about thirty years old, when he de- veloped religious fervor, became a lay monk and went on a pilgrimage. At the monasteries he visited, he picked up some learning, and also managed to receive a letter of intro- duetion to Bishop Theofan at St. Pe- tersburg. ~This was in 1900. Through the influence of the bishop, sant began to meet the influential reople of the city and court. His mystic philosophy created interest, and he had the gift of repartee and polite conversation. At first Rasputin stuck to his peasant garb, in which he made a picturesque figure. But soon he took up an elegant style of dressing and living, which excited the envy of Bishop Theofan. - The bishop ob- tained an order to exile Rasputin to Siberia. But not only did Rasputin’s appeal to the czar save him, but caused the bishop to be dismissed to' the pea- | Poltowa without even time to see his dying father. Intimate of Royal Family. Other powerful officials tried to check the advance of Rasputin, only to find themselves in disfavor. Ras- putin became the intimate of the royal family, gave orders to the min- isters and conducted himself as the supreme power. The only successful attempt to in- duce the court to send Rasputin away resulted disastrously for the plot- ters. Before leaving, Rasputin warned the empress that misfortune was sure to follow. When the heir to the throne fell the frightened empress recalled favorite in haste. Power i1, the Continues to Grow. ' Since his return, Rasputin’s power has continued to grow. His coun- sel is called for in deciding every question of importance. It is said on high authority that he brought sbout the ministerial change last year that saved Russia from a war with Austria. He lived as a prince, with a magnificent villa at Yalta, in Crimea. One of his daughters by his peasant wife is being educated in an aristocratic girls’ college ~in = St. Petersburg and is chief companion of the emperor's. daughters. Rasputin is even reported tc address the czar as “thou” and ‘‘thee,” a freedom de- nied even the grand dukes. A month ago Rasputin was or- dained a prigst by a minor bishop of his native district. This act had aroused the antagonism of the power- ful heads of the church. It is with these big ecclesiastics that Rasputin will now have to deal in holding his position. HIBERNIANS MEET.
