A murmur of astonishment ran through
the assembly. The banker knitted his eye
brows, but speedily his face resumed its
everlasting smile.
"Shall 1 settle at once?" he asked.
"If you will be kind enough to do so, -
said Hermann.
Tchekalinski took bundle OF banknotes

pocketed his winnings and lett the table.

The next evening he returned to the house.
Tchekalinski again held the bank. Her

players FASTENED to make room for him.
Tchekalinski received him with most
gracious bow. Hermann waited, took n
card, and staked on it his AZ ,0G0 roubles, to-
gether with the like sum which he had
gained the evening before.
Tchekalinski began to deal. He turned
up on the right knave, and on the left a

Hermann exhibited 4 seven.
There was general exclamation. Tchek-

he counted out the $4,000 roubes to Her.

The next evening, at the accustomed hour,

ing him. Generals and high officials had
left their whist to watch this extraordinary
play. The young officers had quilted their
sofas, and even the servants of the house
pressed round the table.
When Hermann took his seat the other
PLAYERS ceased to stake, so impatient were
they to see him have it out with the banker,
who, still smiling, watched the approach OF
his antagonist and prepared to meet him.
Each of them united at the same time a
pack OF cards. Tchekalinski shuff1ed, and
Hermann cut. Then the latter teok up a
card and covered it with heap OF bank
notes. 1t was like the prelimnaries of a
duel. A deep silence reigned through the
room.
Tchekalinski took up the cards with
trembling hands and dealt. On one side he
put down a queen and on the other side an
ace.
"Ace wins" said Hermann.

Hermann looked Instead of ace, he>saw
a queen of spades before him. He could not
trust his eyes! And now as ne gazed, in
ination, on the fatal card, he fancied
that he saw the queen OF spades open and
then close her eye, while at the same
time she gave a mocking smile. He
felt a thrill of nameless horror. The

floor in slippers.
The door opened, and woman, dressed
entirely in white, entered the bedroom. Her
manne thought it must be his old nurse, and
he asked himself what she could want at
that time of night.
But the woman in white, crossing the
room with a rapid step, was now at the foot
of his bed, and Hermann recognized the
Countess.

With these words she walked toward the
door, and gliding with her slippers over the
floor, disappeared. Hermann heard the
door of the ante-chamber open, and soon
afterward saw white figure pass along the
street. 1t stopped for a moment before his
window, as if to look at him.
Hermann remained for some time as
