SYNoPsIs.-Prince Neslerov wants to
marry Frances Gordon, the charming
daughter of an American who Is build
ing the Transsiberian railroad. Frances
Is interested in the fortunes Of Vladi-
mir Paulpoff, a stalwart Russian black
smith. She asks Neslerov to use his in
fiuence for Vladimir. Neslerov goes to
Vladimirs hut. The blacksmith has
talent and shows Neslerov picture he
has painted. 1t is the portrait of wo-
man of rank copied from miniature.
The prince Is excited and asks for the
original. Vladimir's father says it has
ben lost. To Vladimer old Paulpoff
confesses that he lied to Neslerov and
still has the miniature. NeSlerov has
the Paulpoffs sent to Siberia as nihi-
lists. Frances Gordon goes to the forge
with books for Vladimar. At the door
of the lonely hut she encounters Nesle-
row. The prince presses his suit v1o-
lently, and Frances stuns him with
pistol shot in the head. Gordon wishes
his daughter to marry Jack Denton, an
American bridge engineer. Frances de-
mands that her father intercede with
the governor for Vladimir. They start
for Obi. Neslerov boards the same
train, which breaks in two, and Nesle-
row has Frances alone in his power.
Neslerov drags Frances before priest
and bids him to perform marriage
ceremony. Jack Denton comes to the
rescue. Neslerov Is beaten off. Denton
nearly kills Neslerov in duel. Jack
promises Frances to save the black
smith. Jack repairs a disabled engine
and hauls a car containing the wound
ed prince and Frances toward Obi. On
the road they meet Gordon, returning
with a special car for his daughter.
Frances will not expose Neslerov's
baseness. Neslerov sends his creature
Jansky, chief Of police, to the Siberian
mines to recover the original Of Vlad-
imir's picture from the Paulpoffs; also
to put Denton out Of the way secretly.
Princess Olga, cousin Of Neslerov, Wis

nizes in the Vladimir picture the por-
trait of Princess Alexandra, the de-
ceased wife Of Neslerov's brother. and

Princess Olga gave gasp as she
heard this.

enough to be independent and indis-

"That is Princess Olga Of the great
and powerful Neslerovs. She Is dis
tantly related to the governor. And,
since you are interested. WILL tell you
the story as know It."
"Oh, there Is story, then. I thought
so"
"There Is a story, and 1t is one which
the governor would not like to have
brought into prominence while the
princess is here. The elder brother of
Neslerov married Alexandra, a cousin
of Princess Olga. This was something
like twenty-three or twenty-four years
ago. No; I think 1t must be twenty
five or six. Well, they were we'll mated,
those two. Prince Alexis was the heir
to the great estate Of Graslov and his
hereditary title, besides being Prince
Neslerov, was Duke Of Graslov. A
year or so after this happy marriage a
son was born to this couple. He was
named Alexis, after his father. He
was q fine young fellow, so l have
heard and grew sturdily. When he
was year old, or perhaps two, Prince
Alexis died. Now, it so happened that
the old Duke Of Graslov, who was still
living, had had a quarrel with Princess
Alexandra. Her branch Of the family
was not friendly to his, and things did
not 60 right, and they quarreled. Just
what that had to do with the story l
do not know, but am telling you what

Silently she crept down the great
winding stairs into the main hall. This
was a wide, high apartment, and from
it opened many doors into other apart
ments. On one side were the offices OF
the government of the province, on the
other the living rooms of the govern
or's household.
The doors upon the left, leading to
the reception room, the governors
room, the great ballroom and the din
ing room, were closed. Two Of those
on the right were open. In one room
there was q light, and from 1t came
the subdued voices Of two men and the
odor Of tobacco. The other room was
dark.
The princess remembered these
rooms. She had seen them In her In
spection of the palace. That from
which came the voices and In which
light was burning was the office Of the
superintendent of police. The one next
to it was q smaller room, connected
with the other by door, which was
locked. This small room had been In
tended for an office, but was now used
for the purpose of storing books, rec
ords, police material and desks. 1t was
part Of the suit allotted to the superln-
tendent Of police.
Olga stood in the hall and listened.
She heard the name Of Paulpoff. With
q fluttering heart she darted into the
darkened room and took up her POSI-
tion near the closed door between that
and the Office.
The two speakers sat near that door,
with round table between them, and
upon the table was a supply Of liquor
and cigars.
The work of preparing the palace for
the festivities on the following night
did not come under the supervision of
the police, but all connected with the
palace were interested. and these two
were the last to retire.
The speakers in that other room were
Jansky, superintendent Of police, and
Inspector Unsgethop.
"The whole thing Is complete mys-
terry to me-" said Unsgethop, speaking
somewhat thickly, having drunk con-
siderable liquor. 1T Is a mystery.
First we receive one command, then
another, and we do not know what to
do. The governor Is not wont to act
thus"
"You are not the first to have felt
the influence Of this great mystery"
said Jansky. "The governor is dis

would bring it to the dignity Of cele-

brated cases in all Russia"
"That Is too much! One Of the most
celebrated cases in all Russia, and they
have not been in the dungeons more
than three days! The matter could
scarcely have gone beyond Tomsk."

"Then there Is something abCLt 1t l

How Docs FIND THEIR WAY.-In the
old days of the James River Canal a
fine setter was taken by his master on
a packet boat which was so crowded
that the dog was put in the captains
cabin to be out Of the way. His mas
ter reached his destination after night
fall and had taken so much wine by
that time that he was carried on the
boat. and no one remembered his set
ter.
Next morning the captain took the
dog on deck with him, but was much
afraid he would jump off to the tow
path and try to return that way, and so
handsome an animal would have been
in danger Of being stolen.
Carlo, however, lay perfectly quiet,
but with an air Of listening that at
tracted notice. Toward noon he heard
the sound Of the horn Of packet COM
ing from the opposite way, and as the
boats passed each other he made leap
and was next heard from as having got
off at the place where his master had
stopped, and as having gone at once TO
the house where he was guest.
Could human intelligence have sur
passed that?
This same dog lay on his masters
grave and refused food until he died
from starvation. But I do not give this
as a case in point.
A gentleman who lived one hundred
miles from a city moved there with all
his possessions, including a bulldog
which had been raised at his fathers
home, where he had hitherto resided.
He was locked up in the car with the
furniture and in the hustle Of unload
ing he disappeared, and. two days af-
terward he reached his former home,
coming by an inland route, as was
known by parties who recognized him,
80 that he evidently marked out his
own path without reference to the rail-
road on which he had been carried
away.-The Christian Endeavor World.

Punching BY Electricity.

Cow punching by cowboys under the
picturesque conditions Of wild western
life will soon be lost art. Electricity
is taking the cowboys place and re-
ports of it's successes in this novel field
credit the new agency with remarkable
success. One Of the largest packing
houses In Kansas City employs elec-
tricity to drive cattle into the beef
sheds instead of shouts, clubs, whips
and prods.
The electricity is applied by means OF
two insulated wires, connected with the
light wires of the catching and knock
ing pens. The current passes through
a stick and connects with two brass
points on the end. "Punchers Is the
name given the sticks. There are TWO
punchers, each six feet long. in the
catch pen, and five. four feet long IN
the knocking pens. The insulated wires
are about twenty feet long, thus COW
ering a distance in the pens or ABOUT
thirty feet each. One hundred ana
twenty-five volts of electricity are
turned on, enough to make a snarp'
stinging sensation without leaving a
mark or bruise on the beef. The WORK
of punching is done in half the time
and with half the exertion. The erect
of the magic touch on the steer Is
amusing to see.
A steer touched on the left hip iinme-
diately throws his hindquarters as 'ar
as he can to the right. Then ne COCKS
one ear straight ahead and one straight
hack. switches his tail and starts very
straight ahead. He don't care for
second attack. There Is look OF sur
prise in his eyes, and he seems to know
that all the trouble lies in the end OF
that stick. He doesn't stop to get mad.

"He is-he is in the dungeons under

THE MACHINISTS' STRIKE.
President 0'Connell Denies That 1t Re-
suited Badly for the Men.

suited bdQiy 1Or tne men.
To the Editor of the Times
In Thursday mornings issue of your
paper, in connection with the report of
the hearing held by the Naval Commit
tee. Wednesday, in relation to the build
ing of ships by the Government you state:
"Mr. O'Connell. who headed the disas-
trous strike of | is association last spring,
was the first speaker" etc.
The statement that l headed strike
which resulted disastrously last spring
is incorrect. 1t misrepresents the result
of the machinists' strike OF last year. and
would make it appear that we were en-
gagged in a cause which proved disastrous
and failure.
The truth of the matter is that as a
result of the machinists' strike last spring
over 100 COO mechanics are enjoying a
nine-hcur day who were formerly work
ing ten hours. Over lao, 900 metal work
ing mechanics had their wages increased
on an average of % cents per day, which,
in volume. amounts to millions Of dollars
per year.
II substantial reductions In the hours
of labor increase of wages, and better
conditions under which men are employed,
Is disastrous. then, of course, the state
ment made is correct. but maintain that
orr strike OF last spring was successful
and that the object sought was attained
in 80 per cent of the places where the
machinists engaged IN the strike.
II Is true that in several localities the
strikes were not adjusted. and that in
two or three instances they are still
being carried on-but this by no means
justifies the statement that headed a
disastrous strike of the Machinists' AS
sociation last spring. and l feel that the
statement made should be corrected, that
a misconception OF our strike may not be
sent broadcast. JAS. O'CONNELl-,
International President.
