ed their thoughts in another direction.
"The sentry is coming" he whisper
ed. "Don't utter a sound"
A faint tramp was audible from with
out, and then shadow passed slowly
by the chink in the logs. For nearly
five minutes Platoff neither moved nor
spoke. Then he attacked the log before
him with tremendous energy, and the
mortar flew in all directions, covering
the boys with coating Of powdered
lime.
"It's a good thing-this prison-was
built by-convict labor" he muttered
at intervals as he piled his knife; "good
for us-I mean" A moment later he
tore the bayonet from the rife which
Maurice had brought with him, and aft
er few jabs with the farther reaching
weapon announced that the log was
loose. He pried the bayonet in one end
while Maurice used the wedge at the
other extremity. Then working In con-
cert the log was gradually drawn In,
until Platoff was able to grasp and low
or it to the ground. The hole thus made
was foot and half high by six feet.
Outside was revealed the thickly fall
ing snow and the gray outlines of the
palisade.
"The coast is clear" said Platof
after a brief survey. "The glare from
the fires is visible at each end Of the
passage, but don't think there is much
danger of being disturbed. don't in
tend to run any risks, though; so you
two will remain inside till all is ready. !"
He nimbly crept through the aper-
ture, and with the bayonet began to
work at one of the big boards Of the
palisade.
1t was evidently a harder task than
he had anticipated. He inserted his bay
onet first on one side, then on the 9th
er, but the board was firmly in place.
Then he put too much strength into
the effort, and his weapon snapped
sharply in two At this critical moment
death and disaster stared the fugitives
in the face. Their best weapon broken,
Of what avail would be the knife or the
wedge? Platoff flung the fragments on
the ground and turned to the boys with
a gesture Of despair.
"I fear we are lost" he said hoarse.
ly. 1.-THE stockade is firmer than I sup
posed. It is impossible to loosen any
Of the planks without tools. And even
now our time must be nearly up.
"Ah, I have plan," whispered
Maurice. "The stockade cannot be more
than 10 feet high. Take this log outside
and stand it on end. I will mount the
log, and you, Pl. .toff, shall climb over
my back to the top. You are strong
enough to pull US both after you, are
you not?''

rifle and fred. The bullet whistIed
overhead. he fired again and again,
shooting aimlessly into the night.
Six times the rife cracked, and the
red fash blazed briefly athwart the
darkness. Then came silence, an omi-
nous, fateful calm, and the daring fugi-
tives fleeing across the valley heard
nothing but the rapid tramp of their
own footsteps. In single file they sped
over the deepening snow, facing the
cutting blast and breathing quickly
through clinched teeth.
Platoff ran at the head, every muscle
strained, his ears alert to catch the
faintest sound. From time to time he
uttered cheering words to his compan-
ions.
Before them and on both sides was
darkness, but looking over their shoul-
ders they saw the twinkling lights Of
the prison still perilously close at hand.
Twice Maurice stumbled, exhausted
BY the fearful strain, but Platof drag
ged him to his feet with new encourage
ment.
Then Phil gave out almost entirely,
and his companions had to help him
along between them.
"You must keep up" said Platoff
impatiently. "See, We are on the down.
ward slope now. The river is not far
off. Once there we are comparatively
SAFE"
"Listen. What is that?" cried Mau-
rice, and as he spoke dull noise was

CHAPTER XVIII.
OFF AT LAST.

Tho party pressed eagerly forward
and were soon standing in the shadow
Of the pines. The trees were indeed sew
en- in number, all of mammoth size and
growing close together Oh the very
verge of the cliff. Huge rocks were
scattered about in all directions.
"Now for the cave" said Platoff, as
he began to go over the ground inclosed
by the seven trees, inspecting every
stone and peering into each Granny.
The boys joined in the search, but IN
spite Of their efforts the location of the
cave remained undiscovered. With
nervous haste they went over the
ground again and again, afraid to con-
fess their own fears.
Finally Maurice crept to the verge OF
the cliff and looked down. The rock
had a sheer descent for distance OF AZ
or 30 feet. At its base the hill sloped
more gradually toward the valley. -Four
feet below the edge was narrow plat.
form Oh which grew few scrubby pine
shoots.
Impelled by Il singular impulse,
Maurice cautiously lowered himself to
this edge, and STOPPING low was con-
fronted by a hole Of impenetrable black
ness.
"The cave, the caver' he cried, and
Platoff and Phil were quickly at his side.
Together they crawled into the open
ing, which led downward at sharp
angle. The passage became wider and
higher, and in short time they reach.
ed level space.
II have found something" exclaim-
ed Platoff, who was ahead. "Clothes,
frearms-yes, and matches, " no added
joyously; "a tin box of matches.
The boys heard something rattle, and
then their eyes were blinded by a bright
light. They were able to see clearly in
a moment, and the sight that met their
gaze was strange one. They were
standing in circular cavern 20 feet in
diameter and 6 feet or more in height.
The floor and walls were dry, and the
atmosphere was warm and pleasant.
Here are the things which that
bravo girl has provided, said Platoff,
pointing to heap OH the floor. "She
has overlooked nothing. There are even
candles. /" And taking ono from box he
lit it with the burning match and
placed it in a crevice on the floor. With
trembling hands they turned over the
articles, uttering cries of delight at ev-
cry now discovery.
There were three complete outfits of
clothes, coarse, heavy garments such as
are worn by the Russian peasants, in
cluding trousers, flannel shirts and
thick warm coats. In O canvas bag
were two silver mounted reviewers.

deed for their secure refuge. The time
passed monotonously, it is true, but
they had plenty to eat and were COM
fortably warm. Melted snow supplied
them with water.
On the fourth day the weather
changed, becoming clear and cold.
From the ledge it was possible to see
across the valley to the settlement. The
prison and many of the houses were in
plain view, but at such distance all
seemed peaceful and serene.
Late that afternoon, before the sun
went down, Platoff pointed to two
dark spots approaching the prison from
different directions.
"They are mounted Cossacks return
ing from the search, he said confident
ly. lit will soon be safe for Us to
leave"
"But will they give up the pursuit
entirely?" inquired Phil.
"Yes, 80 far as concerns the soldiers
In garrison at the mines," answered
Platof. "Of course our escape, with
full descriptions, has been telegraphed
all over Siberia, and at every village
and posting station they will bo on the
lookout for US, but we will keep away

How to Get Along without Corkscrew.
There is trick of taking off the heads
of bottles that is worth knowing Grasp

on your knee and draw a knife vigor-

back of the rim just as if you were 60

pretty hard and turn the bottle around
gradually until every part OF the neck
has been under the knife's edge, you
will scratch the enamel Of the glass.
When this is accomplished, lay the knife
blade flatwise on the bottle and with
the back of tho blade strike the bottle
rim two or three sharp blows as if you
would knock the head off. Presently
you will hear it break.

TWO WEEKS IN FLORIDA.

To see Florida is a pleasure; 10 visit
Ii is q privilege; but TO spend q fort
night within its borders is an epoch.
There is a great satisfaction in wit
lessing the ripening cf tropical fruits
IN their own native land, and pecu-
liar joy in wrestling with old oceans S
waves when lakes and rivers at home
are all icebound. One appreciates the
wonders Of modern invention and rail-
,oad development upon leaving the
neighborhood of good skating one day
and finding himself in the vicinity of
good bathing the next. Yet this can be
done, and the man who prefers hunt
ing or fishing will take his accoutre-
ments along with him. for Florida ex-
lends a cordial invitation to all sports
men.
Whoever would exchange for two
weeks the uncertain climate of tho
North for the delightful and Spring
like sunshine of Florida should take
the personally-conducted Jacksonville

which leaves New York by special train
