There was a good deal of talk in town of a company for sup- plying electricity by utilizing the falls of Imatra in Finland. By this means it was confidently expected AT ST. PETERSBURG IN 1898 235 that in a year or two St. Petersburg would be the best lighted city ou the Continent, and that the slow-mov- ing trams and familiar droskies would be superseded by the electric trolley and motor-cars. The costless drainage of the Finnish wilderness would, it was cal- culated, enable the Russians to sup...ply light and force to the city of Peter the Great at a cheaper rate than is possible elsewhere in the Old World. There was one other change noticeable in the droskies. They are all now fitted with hoods similar to those that fold backwards in a child's perambulator. The hood does not cover the drosky, but it is very convenient for the traveller. While we were in St. Petersburg in Octo- ber, we had the first foreshadowings of the coming winter in the shape of a fall of snow which, melting almost as soon as it fell, did not add to the amenities of existence.
