Yes. yes; one always says that
when afraid, and forgets it afterward,
we know. You had better lose no time
talking, but pray a little, like a good
Christian. We don't want to torture
you; you can choose your own way
to die
All this conversation passed in
subdued voice, as if in gentle per-
suasion. The countenances of the muir
derers bore no trace of anger or fierce
ness.
The Pole tried to soften them with
his prayers, when one of the tramps,
who appeared to be the chief, took
him kindly by the hand and said in
friendly tone:
Good man, don't be baby and ask
for a life we cannot give you. You and
we are both the children of one father.

Travellers are never molested in the
day time. 1t is only at night that these
blackguards attempt their nefarious
work The most dangerous hours are
between and 6 a. m, when travellers
who are on the qui vive all night
somewhat relax their vigilance. A
couple of the thieves are told off to cut
the traces of the tarantass, two more

in Yeneseisk and Tobolsk provinces
there is a sort of understanding be-
tween the villagers and the runaways.
The peasants not only do not hunt the
bradiagi but give them food and other
necesSaries. The tramDs on their side,
even when in superior numbers, never
attack the inhabitants, except in cases
where it is absolutely necessary to in
sure their own safety. Such mutual
concessions arise not only from habit,
but from mutual interest.
When on a dark night (for the tramps

loud knocking at the door and his ques-
ton is answered, The unfortunate

getting food, throws it over the wall as
ouicklv as possible, without opening
the gates or asking any explanation
The recipients thank him and as quick
" withdraw. The peasant knows that
asrefusal would possibly lead to arson
and perhaps murder. The tramps, on
the other hand, are aware that by
burning and numbering they mark the
track they are pursuing, and thus
facilitate their capture, besides melting
the peasants TO throwing endless diff
entities in the way of their flight. For
these reasons perfect understanding
exists between them

To see such picture OF AFFECT fear
was positively painful. Although he
was a great big hulking fellow, and
had an ugly looking cudgel under his
arm, he was as unnerved and cOwed. as
a beaten dog, and evidently expected
me TO Immediately handcuff him and
take him back to prison. To make
sure that he was really what l sus-
pected, I ordered him to lift up his
SheepSkin coat, and 10 and behold, un-
derneath were his prison clothes, Whilst
hidden by his high peasant boots were
the ends of his chains still attached
to the anklets, which he had not yet
had time to remove. His head also. as
he showed me by removing his cap,
had been half shaved in the usual con-
Wet manner. Whatever his crime had
been, it was certainly no business of
mine to rearrest him, SC, after having
taken his photograph with the kodak
and given him a few kopeks for
holding the bicycle, 1 let him go. AS
he withdrew / asked him, out of Curl
osity, where he was going. To my
establishment he shouted back, Mos
cow The idea of his starting out on
foot to accomplish a journey of over
5000 miles struck me as being decidedly
Siberian. In this Land of distances"
1000 miles count for nothing.
One of the leading characteristics of
the Bradiagi, which distinguishes them
from other murderers and freebooters,
is their complete indifference and alb
sence of irritation and passion when
committing a deed of blood. But what
astonishes one most is the combination
of the most hardened crime with some
religious ideas, and also of the severe
discipline of hard labor of the mines,
which produces show of pity toward
the victim they are destroying in the
most cold FLOODED manner.
THEY HOLD TO A STRANGE RE-
LIGION.

If [ were asked what feature of ST.
berian life impressed me most. during
my recent visit, I should have to desig-
nate the so-called Siberian tramp or
runaway convict. This decidedly unique
outgrowth of the Siberian exile system
was brought particularly to my notice
while on my bicycle journey along the
great post road from Achinsk to east
ern Siberia. The interest aroused by
several chance meetings with TINS scu-
rious class of fugitives prompted me 10

into their peculiar life and habits, ana

life is thus spent in tramping, being

To discourage these frequent at

has granted the lawful privilege to
any one of either capturing or shoot
ing down the Bradiaga on sight; and,
in fact, the Monaghan Buriats in the
Irkutsk province make regular bust

the fur animals as, according to their
calculation, the clothes of these unfor-
tunate wretches however bad, are
worth more than five kopecks (21@
cents), the price they. obtain for the

these Buriat settlements the Bradiaga
is afraid to reveal himself even for OBJ
tanning food and is invariably forced,
through hunger. TO commit theft.
