ET YEAR 81.-NO. RUSSIA LADY PRIEST 161 SE --- THEIR REVIVAL MOVEMENT HAS MADE GREAT HEADWAY. They Will Found a College to Train Women Priests--Russia Has Been Waked up. 2 Moscow, July 14--Holy Russia has found a new path to holiness in the shape of lady priests. --Rerty-edd} monjik women, dressed in sheep- pking and armed with apostolical staves, are tramping her eastern provinces calling on peasant sinners 10 come and be saved, and warning the numerous mpenitent that they will inevitably be 'Jost. Though the chief of these vigorous women now gits in Ekaterinburg jail preaching to unresponsive walls, the cause goes bravely on; and now Procurator of the Holy Synod Sgbler, though he hates modernity, is about to found a woman's theglggical college at Kief in order that women may fit them selves to preach the true tenets of the mother church. The movement began last summer at Postnoye, near Nazimovsk, a town on the Yenesel river. The priest of Postnoye was drowned during a fish- ing excursion and left behind a wi- dowed spouse, Matriona, and an equally widowed church When the good Bishop Innokenti chose for Postnoye a successor to the drowned priest, the successor would not go. He said that the drowned priest had been four times beaten by his flock; ; and that he had gone fishing ° and been drowned because his parishion- ers kept him on starvation allow- ances, So for church was desolate and natives relapsed into sin. dow Matriona came to the The tron shield, ringing, suddenly boomed forth; and when the villa gers came to church they found Ma- triona installed as priestess, wore a gold cloth "risa" and looked---were it not for the absence of a beard as good a priest as her husband. three months Postnoye Postnoye's Then Wi rescue. Accepted Her as a Priest. In Holy Russia, much less in un- holy Siberia, these things make stir. The Postnoye flock would ordinarily have thrown their felt boots at a lady preacher, but they were 80 tired at being three months sermonless and likewise so' amazed and flabbergasted that they listened peacefully at Matriona's pious words and Matriona remained priestess a Postnoye. This event caused a great scandal, for Russians do not believe in sex equality in religion. But peasants of several neighboring villages instal led women priests. The villages of Nizhni:Ingarevo deposed is own drunken priest, Ilovaigki, and put a woman in his place. llovaiski en tered the church during service and made a s¢ene with his supplanter The villagers pithim out. He appeal- ed to Yenescisk CofiSistory, which reported to St. Petersburg. Before St. Petersburg had time to take ac tion the movement in favor of wo- man priests made trémendous pro gress, particularly in West Siberia and along the Russo-Suberian [ron- tier, and it would take more than the efforts of rocurator of the Synod Sabler oot it out The main cause of the spread is the progagagda carried on by the first woma riest in European Rus- sia, Seniavina, a dealer in fruits and vegetables in the town of Perm Seniavina is a first cousin of the Si berian priestess, Matriona, and in that way she was drawn into the movement. This Sehiavina, though she barely khows how to write, is no ordinary woman. She has surprising talents for, preaching apostolic ear- nestness, a remarkable command of the rugged dinlest spoken in the Ur als, and a Smatering of medical knowledge. # Arested and Acquitted She hegan preaching in a wooden church, little more than a hut, on her husband's farm. The peasant flocked to hear her, and the local churches were deserted. Trouble be- gan, for what may be done freely in the far Yenesi district is not possible under "official eyes in Eurgpean Rus- sia. The police closed Seniavina' church and arrested her.
