were by some echsnce assigned to tho regi.
mentin which he served. One night they
were found dead in their tents, knife
sticking in their hearts. Fearing detec.
tion he deserted tho army. and for ton
years saw nothing of him. Ono night he
appeared at the university in disguise and
requested mo to follow him. Next morn
Ing We left for Italy. and in short time
arrived at Milan.~ From there We weat to
Florence, where our father said our work
OF vengeance was to be completed. A
brother of Romanof. tho. prefect,
was an attache of the Russian le-
CATION at the court of Victor Emanuel,
and we determined to slay him. and for
days we followed him, when one night we
met him and his companion along the
river bank. We were masked, and my
father sprang at the throat of Romanof s
companion, and throwing him, held him
while sprang upon Romanoff and stabbed
him twice to the heart and threw his body
into the river, and We left his friend lying
on the ground insensible. Ny father was
shortly afterwards captured, tried, SEN
fenced and hanged. Ithen came to Amer
lea, Joined band of brigands under the
command of Spizzia, who was recently
captured in New Orleans, and for some
time the wild life satisfied me. Soon re-
turned to Poland and found that the Rom
anoff had been scattered. A number had
been exiled to Siberia for treason, while
three had gone to America.
81 Immediately determined to follow
them, and after searching from 1876 to
1881 l found them at this place, but be
fore my vengeance could overtake then:
two of the three had died from disease
and but one. Albert Loboski. was left. 1
then secured work here and plotted his
destruction. One night he disappeared.
Nothing was thought of it, as mysterious
disappearances are common among our
class. I killed him and would have gone
back to Russia to finish my work had it
not been for this sickness
The listeners were appalled, by this
story. The man then proceeded to tell in
husky voice the place where he buried
the man, and, after receiving the sacra-
ment from the priest, expired, thus escap-
ing the power of the law. Next morning
party proceeded to the spot indicated
and exhumed skeleton, with large,
rusty dirk knife protruding. There was
then no doubt as to the truth of Semiloffs $
story. A post mortem examination will
be held on the body of Loboski shortly.

man. He was covered with blood, and the
light from the gas post on the corner showed
that hisclothts were saturated with the zane.
As the door opened he staggered 10 bis feet
and extended his right arm. In the wrist
was o deep cut, evidently dene with knife
or some sharp instrument. TWAS q deep cut
too and an artery must have been severed

wherever he stood for moment there
was pool OF blood. The man was
either so weak from the loss OF blood, or 90
drunk, or both, thathe could not or would
not say q word. Mr.. MUakemeller asked
him his name but he refused 10
give any. He was taken into the
store and given seat, from which he sank
onto the floor. Mr.. MenkemGiler went
