Roman Catholic Bishop Promised Sudden
Death by Cutthroats.
Bellevi1le. Ills, Jan. 12.-Bishop
Jansen, of the Roman Catholic church,
Thursday received threatening letter
from unknown persons. The letter is
written in German and signed Bloody
Tim" and Cherokee BILL" The writer's
demand the appointment of Father
James Downey, former pastor, to
st. Patrick's parish at East st. Louis
and the removal of the present priest,
Father John Sweeney. They close their
letter as follows:
Now don't think we are going to
fool with you or Sweeney any longer
Only one thing remains to be done
Give the people the priest that you
banished away from here. III you don
werwill pay you a visit, and IL we
succeed in laying our hands on you we
will cut your throat from ear to ca
and sink your body in Richland creek.
The fact that you are bishop shall
not deter us from carrying out our
purposes We defy your officers and
detectives, and if it comes TO trouble
we will give them all they want. We
intend to destroy st. Patrick's church
and residence If the peoples choice is
not brought back. If you ignore the
requests this time. as you have done
in the past, then Mr.. Jansen, you will
have to suffer the consequences"
The trouble in ST. Patrick's parish
originated two years ago, when Bishop
Jansen appointed Vicar General
Clause, a German priest, to the pas
torate. The parishioners demanded an
Irish priest. They wanted Father
Downey appointed. Bishop Jansen re-
fused and there followed a bitter war
which led to the communication Of
the entire 1000 parishioners. They
then carried their appeal to the pope.
who instructed the bishop to give the
parishioners an Irish priest. He ap-
pointed Father Sweeney. a1c

among the clouds Of dust, preceding
them along the road. AS his horses
were evidently less fatigued than those
of the other traveller, he would not be
long in overtaking it. This was neither
a tarantass Lor telga, but post ber-
lin, all over dust and looking as If 1t
had made n long journey. The postil-
ion was thrashing his horses with all
his might and only kept them at Il
gallop by dint Of abuse Mud blows. The
berlin had certainly not passed through
Novo-Saimsk and could only have
struck the Irkutsk road by some less
frequented route across the steppe.
Mlchael's first thought on seeing this
berlin was TO get in front Of 1t and ar
rive first at the relay, so as to make
sure OF fresh horses. He said word

did not belong to himself; that he had
not the power Of doing what he de-
sired, and that in this instance especial
ly he had herolcally sacrificed to duty
even his resentment at the gross injury
he had received.
Nadia, therefore, asked no explana-
ton from Michael. Had not the hand
which she had extended to him already
replied TO all that he might have been
able to tell her?
Michael remained silent all the even
ing. The postmaster not being able to
supply them with fresh horses until
the next morning, a whole night must
be passed at the house. Nadia could
profit by it TO take some rest, and a
room was therefore prepared for her.
The young girl would no doubt have
preferred not to leave her companion,
but she felt that he would rather be
alone, and she made ready to go to her
room.
Just as she was about to retire she
could not refrain from going up to Mi
chael to say good night.
Brother" she whispered.
But he checked her with a gesture.
The girl sighed and left the room.
Michael Strogoff did not lie down.
He could not have slept even for an
hour. The place on which hs had been
struck by the brutal traveller felt like
burn.
"For my country and the Father" he
muttered as he ended his evening pray
er.
He especially felt great wish to
know who was the man who had
struck him, whence he came and where
he was going. AS TO his face, the fea-
lures of it were so deeply engraved on
his memory that he had no fear OF
ever forgetting them.
Michael at last asked for the post
master. The latter, Siberian Of the
old type, came directly and, looking
rather contemptuously at the young
man, waited TO be questioned.
"You belong to the country?" asked
Michael.
"Yes."
"Do you know that man who took
my horses?"
"No."
"Had you never seen him before?"
"Never."
"Who do you think he was?"
"a man who knows how to make
himself obeyed,"
Michael fixed his piercing gaze upon
The Iola register., 1901-12-27

"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 Michaels
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 n whip
showed that the berlin, drawn by the
tarantass' horses, was driving rapidly
away from the posthouse.
Nadia, unmoved, an1 Michael, still
qulvering, remained alone in the room.
The courier of the czar, his arms
crossed over his chest, was seated mo-
tionless as Il statue. However, a color
which could not have been the blush
of shame had replaced the paleness on
his manly countenance.
Nadia did not doubt that powerful
reasons alone could have allowed him
TO suffer so great a humiliation from
such n 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 winnd ava Y
tear which sprung to her compan-
ions eyes.
