The boat was in the middle Of the
current at nearly equal distances from
either shore and being carried down at
the rate of two versts an hour when
Michael, springing to his feet, bent his
gaze up the river.
Several boats, aided by oars as we'll
as BY the current, were coming swiftly
down upon them.
Michael's brow contracted, and an ex-
clamation escaped him.
.sWhat is the matter?" asked the girl.
But before Michael had time to reply
one OF the boatmen exclaimed in an ac-
cent of terror:

They were indeed boats full Of Sol

The terrified boatmen uttered excla-
nations of despair and dropped their
poles

Courage! Fifty rubles for you il we
reach the right bank before the boats
oVertake us!
Incited by these words, the boatmen
again worked manfully away, but it.
soon became evident that they could
not escape the Tartars.
1t was scarcely probable that they
would pass without attacking them.
On the contrary, there was everything
to be feared from robbers such as
these.

The Tartar boats were now only a
hundred feet distant. They carried a
detachment Of Bokharian soldiers on
their way to reconnoiter round Omsk.
The ferryboat was still two lengths
from the shore. The boatmen redou-
bled their efforts. Michael himself seiz-
ed pole and welded it with superhu-
man strength. If he could land the |

Michael recognized the Tartar war

this injunction, volley was let fly

were mortally wounded. #

was felt. The boats had run into the
