Saturday afternoon al O'clock Lima, PopofFs
mother, now an upper servant In the Lanin
palace, had finished her work She had given
the necessary orders and dropped now, very
tired, into an armchair.
Nicholas, standing By her, smiled at her.
" This active lie suits you. dear mother?"
Admirably, my son. thank God every day

And all This We owe TO NeghbOr Miller?'
" Yes. indeed. precious friend. But he also
is better off-you know his inheritance in Cour-
land"
Il do not know how that is" said Popoff.
miller does not like 10 SPEAK of il. There is
some secret behind IT.
- But 10 speak OF another subject. my dear
son, why do you never mention Helen now?
Have you given her dp?"
ION tie contrary, mother, my feelings are still
the same, but theie is no hurry; my position Is
very Insecure as vet"
.She was here yesterday aud very sad. she
doubts your attachment and her father repeats
10 her: You see, child. when lie moor he
wanted you because he hoped to get good dover
with you. Now he no longer cares. That is the
way with them all
Dear mother tell you my feelings toward
Helen have never changed and MY apparent
coldless arises purely from the desire TO collect
as much money as | can. that her father may
not refuse me a second time"
THAI would have been sheer Madness" said
Vladimir Unexpectedly, who had entered I'M
expecledy and had heard The conversation be-
tween mother and son. why did you not men

Behind Lanln Miller also had entered. As a
good huutsman he did not lose sight of his game
and was daily guest al the palace.

there is really baccarat golug on in the second
story-the Frenchwoman has organized kind of
Ladies' Club. You know how women love to
surround everything with secrecy. The club took
thus very well with many ladies'. Count Hahn
became their conhdant. He rented a house and
does the hOnorS."
" can hardly trust my ears when / hear such
nonsense. It sounds like novel"
! he Prince and Lanln listened with almost
painful attention. Miller seemed TO suffer
torture. He managed 10 smile incredulously
whenever vladimir glanced at MIN.
" That Is the romance Of these fair ladies'"

The police do not trouble themselves with
anything but politics. Nine. de Dugarcy is, be-
sides, foreigner. She stands well at court, and
the ladies' who visit her belong to the highest
classes OF society. The police do not see them"
" And these meetings lake place daily?"

assembly is expected to meet there. When l LETT

the beautiful Countess Lanln drive up to the
DOOR They sent the carriage ok"
Vladimir sprang mp. The Prince turned pale.
"Miller, what are these men talking abOut2"
Miller could hardly stand up. He pressed hi 8
friends hand.
AT first" continued the speaker below. Il
was not a lille surprised seeing the beautiful
Jana in such company, but our great ladies' must
always have some novelty"
The morning call., 1890-04-27

In the meantime Jana and Nine. de Dugarc
had reached the theater. The Countess went TO
her box and was surprised not to lind her hus-
band there.
The gentleman may have gone out TO smoke
a cigarette" said Jana.
ION. certainly" replied Nine. de Dugarcy
The arrival of the TWO ladies caused great
cOmmotiOn in the iheater. Prince hax was one
of those men who love to enjoy the mlsfortunes
OF their friends. After having in vain looked for
the unknown man IN the pit, he could not refrain
from telling everybody he met the strange story
of Count Vladimir and his WIFE, together with
the commission lie had received.
Now, when Jana entered, all eyes were directed
to her box. Although the young Countess was
accustomed 10 receive such homage, she still
wondered why the admiration should be so
marked tonight The Frenchwoman, who pos
sessed more knowledge of the world. telt al once
that something must have occurred and some

When they reached the palace no one kne W
anything. Jana could get no answer to her
questions.
Jana was perfectly helpless, and even the
cheerGulness of the Frenchwoman disappeared
gradually. All OF a sudden Popof rushed In
like mad and cried:
The police hereI The whole palace Is
full of gendarmes."
AT that moment Jana remembered her fathers
prophecy. Scheim's miserable figure appeared
before her minds eye and she fell into u chair
with the cry:
MY Coo! We are lOsil"
Lost? Why?" asked POpOff. 1.-THE coming
of the gendarmes is surprising but by no means

There was also on board the ship the then
Young son of Professor Louis AgassiZ, whom, 1t
was reported, the great naturalist had sent out
TO Investigate the fish and other marine curios
