horses were harnessed to the tarantass.
These animals, covered with long hair,
were very like long legged bears. They
We're small, but spirited, being Of Sibe-
rian breed.
They were harnessed thus: One, the
largest, was secured between two long
shafts or whose farther end was q
hoop called q douga, carrying tasselS
and bells. The two others were SIM
ply fastened by ropes to the steps Of the
tarantass. This was the complete har-
ness, with mere strings for reins.
Neither Michael Strogof nor the
young Livonian girl had any baggage.
The rapidity with which one wished to
make the journey and the more than
modest resources Of the other prevent
ed them from embarrassing themselves
with packages. 1t was fortunate
thing under the circumstances, for the
tarantass could not have carried both
baggage and travellers. 1t was only
made for two persons, without count
ing the driver, who kept his equilibri-
um on his narrow seat in q marvellous
manner.
The driver is changed at every relay.
The man who drove the tarantass dur
ing the first stage was, like his horses,
Siberian and no less shaggy than
they-long hair. cut square on the fore
head, hat with turned up rim, red belt,
coat with crossed facings and buttons
stamped with the imperial cipher. The
driver on coming up with his team
threw an inquisitive glance at the pas
sengerS Of the tarantasS. No luggage:
And had there been. where in the
world could he have stowed it? Rath-
er shabby in appearance toc- He look
ed contemptuous.

whether he was overheard or not;

mo; elSles," said Michael, who un-
derstood the slang perfectly; eagles,
do you hear. at 0 copeclSs a verst and 8
tip besides
He was answered by a merry crack
OF the whip.
In the language Of the Russian pos
tilions the "crow" is the stingy or poor
traveller who at the posthouses only
pays 2 or 3 copecks q verst for the
horses: The eagle" is the traveller
who does not mind expense, to say
nothing Of liberal tips. Therefore the
crow could not claim to hy as rapidly
as the imperial bird. -
Nadia and Michael Immediately took
their places in the tarsIntass. A small
store of provisions was put in the box,
in case at any time they were delayed
in reaching the posthouses, which are
very comfortably provided under di-
lection Of the state. The hood was
pulled up, as il: was insupportably hot,
and at - o'clock the tarantass, drawn
by it's three horses. left Perm in
cloud Of dust.

"You will not give up your horses to

"You will not give up your horses to
me:'
NO" answered Michael.
Very well, then they. shall belong to
whichever Of US is able to start. De-
fend yourself. for shall not spare
you
So saying the traveller drew his sabef
from it's sheath, and Nadia threw her
self before Michael.
Blount and Alcide Jolivet advanced
toward him.
II shall not fight" said Michael quiet
ly, folding his arms across his chest.
You will not fight"
NO"
Not even after this?' exclaimed the
traveller. and before any one could pre-
vent him he struck Michael's shoulder
with the handle Of the whip. At this
insult Michael turned deadly pale. His
hands moved convulsiyely, as if he
would have knocked the brute down.
But by tremendous effort he master
ed himself. \ duel! 1t was more than
a delay; it was perhaps the failure Of
his mission. 1t would be better to
lose some hours. Yes, but to swallow
this affront!
"Will you fight now, coward" re-
peated the traveller, adding coarseness
to brutality.
'No," answered Michael, without
moving, but looking the other straight
in the face.
"The horses this moment" said the
man and left the room. The postmas'
ter followed him.
The effect produced on the reporters
by this incident was not to Michael's
advantage. Their discontinue was Wis.
ible. How could this strong young
man allow himself to be struck like
that and not demand satisfaction for
such an insult? They contented them
selves with bowling to him and retired.
A moment afterward the noise OF
wheels and the cracking OF whip
showed that the berlin, drawn by the
tarantass' horses, was driving rapidly
away from the posthouse.
Nadia, unmoTed, and Michael, still
quivering, remained alone in the room.
The courier Of the czar, his arms
crossed over his chest. was seated mo-
tionless as statue. However, color
which could not have been the blush
Of shame had replaced the paleness OF
his manly countenance.
Nadia did not doubt that. powerful
reasons alone could have allowed him
to suffer so great humiliation from
such man.
Then, going up to him as he had come
to her in the police station at Mini
Novgorod, she said:
"your hand, brother"
And at the same time her hand with
an almost maternal gesture wiped away
a tear which sprung to her compan'
ions eyes.

Another Robbery.

On Sunday night last there was
a big robbery committed at Scran-
ton this county. Someone very
misterionsly entered the store CT
W. K Singletary 4 Son, and aT-
tracted some fifteen hundred o.
lars from their safe. The junior
member of the firm was slee,ins
in the store, and the safe as
locked, and was found locked Mo..-
day morning, vet the money was
gone. The mysterious part Of the
whole proceeding is how they got
the money out OF the safe. No
clue whatever to the robbers.

As was announced In last weeks
RECORD. Mr. Lsitch came to King
stree on Thursday last and has
been preaching to good conerega-
tion in the Methodist church daily,
morning anil evening.
Mr.. L..itch 10 a fine specimen Of
a man physically, and mentally he
is n power. No one can tell any
thing about him. until they 80 and
hear the man talk his own talk
Asreat many people confound him
with the little Sam Jones inita-
tors that have sprung up oil over
tho land, and as there is only one
San Jones, 30 there is bat one
Tom Leitch. He 10 entirely origi-
nal and has no semblance to Mr..
Jones except that they are both
preaching the same gospel after
their own styles. The people Of
Kingstree should esteem it a great
privilege to have HIM preach for
them week. Mr.. Leitch is a
powerful factor for good, and
wherever he breaches good is
bound TO come out OF it. 1t makes
a sensible man sick at heart to
hear some occasional little "Silly
Billy" who hasn't got sense
enough 70 get out Of a shower OF
rain, attempt to critize + man like
Tom Leitch.
Mr. Leitch sustains hit reputa-
ton as a pulpit orator. He is .
sound debater, deep thinker, and
good reasoner. His knowledge of
human nature is perfect. We
would advise all who. can to 60
and hear Mr.. Leitch tor thrmselv. s.
There is no danger in doing unes
self any harm, aud it Is possible
that he Might induce many to lead
different lives, new lives, form bet

trary all the good he can, and every

rightly deserves in his great effort

OF Kingstree. Men may so on.
