MERGERS "Pork" Barrel.
~Philadelphia Record.

As agreed Upon in conference committee
the mnibus public building bill carries
S1e, 425, 45O, or nearly 100000 more than
the original measure reported to and passed
In the house Of representatives. No log
rolling pie legislation Of earlier days
can match this. Public building graft
ers" in congress twenty or thirty years age
were content with a bill carrying $1,000, 900
or IS, 900, 900, but that was the day Of small
things. When the hooters survey the field
and measure their opportunities they are
doubtless astonished like Warren Hastings
In India, at their own moderation.

NESLEROV KNOWS HIS PERIL.

NEsLEROv KNOWS HIS PERIL.
BOUT the time Governor Nesle
"a row was rousing himself from
a deep slumber which had not
refreshed him after the ball.
Jansky, superintendent of police, was
grooming and muttering in his own eff
forts to wake up. He knew he was
awake, but the effect of the heavy drug
was still upon him. Itzig, however,
having Succumbed to a lesser quantity
than was taken by Jansky, was sooner
awake and had been relieved by the
day guard and gone to his own quar-
tiers. The first question Neslerov asked
was for Princess Olga. When he learn
ed that she was still sleeping, he went
to see Jansky.
what is the matter with you?" he
asked. 'You seem to be ILL.,"
II do feel rather ill.," said Jansky. Il

drink any more?'

bottle Of wine half gone. I drank the

"1tzig asleep! At his post! And this
danger near us?" -.
Pooh! The girl suspects nothing. A
girl of her age, even though she be a
princess, could not dissemble so well.
tell you Olga suspects nothing
"Then why is she here?"
"Well, she is eccentric, as you know,
and it is quite possible that she would
like to be the wife Of the governor of
Tomsk.'
Neslerov laughed.
"She would like to kill him, rather"
"Even SO, she does not suspect"
"But this thing Of Itzig being asleep
ut his POSITIVE must examine into it."
The poor devil wanted his share in
the festivities, ] suppose. We must not
deal too, severely with him. He GER
tainly did not steal the wine. Some
one must have given It to him."
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1902-11-27

liz horror OF the situation was
so great that Princess Olga's
brain could not accept it all
at once.
Not only was she lost, but there was
q certainty that If she was rescued she
would also be discovered in this act
against the rule of Neslerov. Powerful
as was her family, she was now abso-
lutely at the mercy Of the governor of
Tomsk, whom she knew to be merci-
less. Who could ever know that Prin-
cess Olga, the rich and beautiful Nesle-
rov, died in the dungeons under her
cousins palace?
81 am not only a suicide, but 1 am a
murderer as WE'LL" she said. II should
not have induced Therese to come"

cess. "You should not have come. 1t

for chains were hanging on the walls.
The lantern in Olga's hand flashed its
light into every nook and Granny until
at last she reached the end Of that
passage. Making sure Therese was
another passage, running apparent!
at right angles with the other. This
she traversed in the same way until
the very bigness Of the place and its
silence began to awe her.
The first courage that had led her tc
the desperate act gradually gave way
to the awful gloom and mystery of the
place. But in its stead there came a
determination not to relinquish the
search until she had found the unfortu-
nate victims of Neslerov's hate or prov.
ed that they were not there. She walk.
ed on, gradually increasing her pace. A
door at last greeted her vision-a real
door that swung on hinges.
AT last, Perhaps she said.
She tried her strength against the
door, and, though it was not locked,
yet she could not open it sufficiently tc
enter.
"Therese, help me-" she said, setting
the lantern down upon the floor.
The two placed their shoulders against
the door and pushed, and it suddenly
opened. Therese was precipitated head
long into the chamber. A rush of foul
air almost stifed Olga. There was q
peculiar sound, as if Therese had fall
en- upon a heap Of something. She was
whimpering in her terror.
Olga seized the lantern and dashed
into the chamber. A cry Of horror es-
capped her. She was in what seemed
to be an old tomb. At least, there
were heaps Of bones scattered about,
and into one of these poor Therese had
pitched headlong.
Olga swung the lantern and, near to
the spot where Therese lay, two skele-
tons hung in chains. One had lost it's
head, but the other, by reason of being
fastened in peculiar way, had retain
ed it's grinning top piece.
Therese was in a dead faint.
Olga was now in a terrible difficulty.
She knelt by the side of Therese.
"Oh," she said, IF I had but some
water! She will never recover in this
place."
Setting the lantern down, she
dragged the woman from the place of
horrors and laid her down on the cold
floor Of the passage. Then she swung
the door shut.
Again she began working over The
reese. Olga saw that she was suffering
severe nervous shock, and the only
hope of restoration of her senses was
Immediate removal from the place.
Swinging her lantern upon her arm,
she seized hold Of Therese and began
dragging her along the passage, going
backward in order to exert a greater
pull on the unconscious woman. Il.
In some way-she never knew how
she lost her bearings and came sud-
denly against a great stone pillar
which stood in the center of sort of
court, from which passages ran like
the spokes of wheel.
For a moment she stood there half
unwilling to believe the truth. Then,
as the horrible fact was borne in upon
her, she let the shoulders Of Therese lie
neglected on the floor while she stared
helplessly around her. She could not
discover the one through which she
had come.
She was lost!
