on the Warren line steamer Kansas. The
family gave a party on May 2Sth in their
home at Trabe. Russia, in honor of the
thirteenth birthday anniversary of Moses,
who, under Jewish customs had reached
mans estate. Private parties being con-
trary to Russian laws, the local police de-
manded a large sum as hush money which
Sintzki could not give. The family, without
trial, were started for Siberia.
On their way there the officer in command
of the guard made a proposal to Sintzki's
daughter, agreeing to release the
whole on certain conditions. She was
willing to sacrifice herself, but her
father forbade her doing so. To make the
father yield the girl was strung up by tho
arms. and the pain and fright caused her
death. A section Of Nihiists heard Of this
outrage, and succeeded in drugging the
soldiers and executing the captain. The
captives were then rescued and assisted
across the Russian frontier and sent to
America.
