THE GRAND DUKE AND THE JEW.
A ROMANCE OF REAL LIFE


The following singular story. which was
current among the English residents in st.
Petersburg, at the coronation of the present
Emperor of Russia, has been narrated to US
by person newly arrived from that part Of
the Continent. .. ..
In the early part of the year 1926. on Eng
lish gentleman, from Akmetcht in the Cri.
mea, having occasion to travel TO France on
business of importance, directed his course
by way of Warsaw, in Poland. About an
hour after his arrival in that city, he quilted
the tavern in which he had been taking re.
freshment, to take walk through the streets.
While sauntering in front of one ofthe public
buildings, he met with an elderly gentleman
of grave aspect and courteous demeanor.-
After q mutual exchange ofcivilties. they got
into conversation, during which. with the
characteristic frankness of an Englishman,
he told the stranger who he was, where from,
and whittier he was going. The other. in the
most friendly manner, invited him to share
the Inequalities of his house, till such time as
he found it convenient to resume his journey
adding, with smile, that it was not i'm
probable but he might visit the Crimea him
self in the course OF that year, when. perhaps.
he might require a similar return: the invita-
ton was accepted, md he was conducted to
splendid mansion. elegant without, and rich
and commodious within.
Unbounded liberality on the part Of tho
Pole, produced unboun,lcd confidence on
the part Of the Englishman. The latter had
small box Of jewels of great value, which
he had carried about his person from the time
of his leaving home-findng that mode Of
conveyance both hazardous and inconvenient
in town, he requested his munificent host to
deposit it in place of security till he should
be ready to 60 away. At the expiration Of
three days, he prepared for his departure,
and on asking for his box. how was he amaz-
ed when the old gentleman, with a couhte-
nance exhibiting the utmost surprise, replied,
/" What box - !" Why, the small box of jew
els which ! gave you to keep for me ?"-
my dear sir. you must surely be mistaken ;
never, really. saw nor heard ofsuch box.''
The Englishman was petrificd. After reco-
vcring himself little. he requested he would
call bis wife, she having been present when
he received il. She came, and on being
questioned, answered in exact union with her
husband expressed the same surprise and
beneyolently endeavored to persuade her dis.
tracfed guest that II was mere hailticination
With mingled feelings Of horror, astonish.
