W of the Tsaritsa to the Tsar"
Writing in the Literary Review of
the "Letters of the Tsaritsa to the
Tsar." which McBride 8: Co., have
~ recently issued in an American edi-
‘tion. Arthur Ruhl points out how
definitely they lay {highest of any
Scandal regarding ~the relation be-
tWeen Rasputin and the Empress.
”His (Rasputin‘s) sinister shadow,”
lays Mr. Ruhl. “is cast over the
whole correspondence, but the bes-
tial side of that astonishing adven-
turer was something she did not see
or could not grasp. ‘Our Friend' as
he is generally referred to came into
their lives as the miraculous being
who .stopped the little Czarevitch's
bleeding. and he remained as one
to whom ‘God opens everything."
Of the letters as a whole, Mr.
Rubi says: “The first ingportance.
indeed. of the letters is for the pic-
ture they give of this beautiful and
queenly but strangely inept and
"iwkward woman. of her passionate
‘ devotion to her husband—and her
"similarly intense, and toward thfi
end. when everything was slipping
away from them, almost tigerish
“devotion to the frail little Clare-
”7331', their only man-child, whom
“she s passionately yearned to see
safe] on the throne. {the letters
;are also. of course. a historical
" document of considerable import-
).nnce. Not for any light they shed
' on the huge forces gathered for the
cutting explosion, for any Petrograd

hob-haired gymnasium girl knew
more of what was really going on
and what it meant then did .the Em-
pm but rather for their picture
of the isolation and esential ignor-
ance of the court, and all the queer,
nhécurantist influences that sur-
grounded it and shut it of; no less
