The Cipher
OeIegram

loriginal.l
Lisa was q young Russian girl, the
daughter OF. a general At the time the
Crimean war broke out she was en-
gagged to Dimitri ollzoff, lieutenant in
the Russian army. There are cases
where lovers become SO wrapped in
each other that separation is agony. SO
1t was with these two young people
when Dimitri Ollzoff departed for the
ward. Lisa held to him till the last
minute and fell in a stupor when he
left her.
II had been arranged between them
that Ollzon should not only send word
by everyday mail, but telegraph her in
case Of his being wounded or taken
sick. This might involve sending news
Of battle. The Russian government
gives out all the news, not permitting
even the newspaper correspondents 70
send any except what has passed a
censor. Therefore 0lizoff would not
only be obliged to send his message
surreptitlously, but in cipher. The
lover arranged code, giving Lisa the
key. He did not tell her that there was
little hope Of his being able to use it.
still, since the cipher was simply a few
ordinary sentences, each with special
meaning, the sending OF a message was
not impossible.
Olizoif was wealthy, and Russian Off
cials are very corrupt. He made the
acquaintance of a telegrapher at head
quarters and arranged with him for
1000 rubles to send a message il re-
quired.
one evening Lisa was at an enter
tainment Mt the house of Vladimir
sohnski. d prominent government Of
fetal at st. Petersburg. The Maiakoff
had been stormed and the government
was especially DESTROYS Of keeping
news which forebode the defeat Of the
Russian cause from the people. The
host knew of 1t and was instructed to
proceed with his entertainment, since
a postponement would excite suspicion.
IN the midst of the festivities tele-
gram was handed TO Lisa. She tore of
the envelope, scanned the words in the
message and fell in faint Sohnski,
who had been feigning TO be IN merry
mood, but really was depressed by what
he was concealing, happened 70 be near
Lisa when she swooned. He seized
the telegram, noticed the point from
whence it came and knew at once that
ii must be a cipher message containing
some news about the disaster. He
had Lisa carried upstairs to a private
room, notified the police to come and
take charge of her, and disappearing
from among his guests went directly
to the imperial palace with the tele
gram.
The telegram was composed Of tvs
sentences. II am on picket duty to
day. and Il love YOU as ever" the
first meaning "There has been disas
ter" the second Il am badly wounded

FACTS ABOUT SUICIDES

fessor Bailey Of Yale.

Hours-sIen Far More Prone TO SELF
Destruction Than women-Married
HIen Are In Largest Proportion.
Suicide in the United States has beer
studied by Professor William B. Bailey
of Yale for a period covering 1897 to
1901, says a New Haven special to the
New York Times. He has taken 29,344
cases. In order to take a more con-
yenient unit 10000 cases were taken
by Professor Bailey for computation
in his statistics. OF these 7,7s1 were
found to be males and 2,219 females,
indicating that in general the ratio Of
suicides of males to that Of females
is three and a half to one.
His tables show that the most popu-
lar suicide period is between thirty
and forty years, followed closely By
the period between twenty and thirty
years Nearly two-thirds of the sui
cides are found between the periods Of
twenty to fifty years. 1t is found that
the number Of married suicides ex
ceeds that of those who are single

The Tines Daily Short Story.

1t had been understood between. the
lovers that in the latter event Lisa
should 20 to her lover if possible. Lisa
before recovering from her swoon
raved about his condition, then as soon
as she came to herself raised herself
from the couch on which she had been
laid, saying that she must go at once
to him. Then for the first time she saw
among those about her police officer.
She knew at once that she had betray-
ed herself.
Lisa was sent TO her fathers house,
where she was kept under the surveil-
lance Of the police. Every effort was
made without success 10 induce her to
tell from whom the telegram, which
was unsigned, came. But it was quite
plain that it must have come from her
lover. An account OF the matter was
sent to the headquarters Of the army
with orders to watch 0lizofR without
informing him of the result of his mes
sage. in the hope of catching him send
ing another and discovering through
what operator he sent Il. 0hzod, how
ever, sent 10 more messages, for he
was lying in a hospital severely
wounded.
Several months passed. during which
Lisa was kept in close confinement,
without any knowledge OF her lovers
condition. She did net know whether
he had died OF bis wound or would live
TO suffer a worse fate for sending sur
reptitiously telegraph message that
only the government might send. She
sank rapidly under the strain Those
who attended her dared not speak Of
anything that had happened in connec-
ton with the matter, and Lisa did not
even know how her own father, who
was with the army in the Crlmea,
stood toward her.
one afternoon there was a sound Of
horses hoofs and the clatter OF sahers
IN the court Thinking that her father
had returned from the war, sudden
thrill Of hope passed through Lisa that
he would bring her news Of Dimitri.
Then she heard her fathers voice and
looked for him to rush upstairs as he
was used to doing when he came home,
but when he did not she supposed that
be had not forgiven her for her part in
the deceit. Presently she heard several
people coming up the stairway very
slowly. Then her door opened and her
father entered, followed by the order
lies supporting the wasted figure OF her
lover.
"You are forgiven. my daughter,
said the father. "The emperor has
listened to my prayer in your behalf
Vladimir won his own forgiveness by
gallantry in the action Of which he
sent you the news"
The father embraced his daughter
then her pale soldier lover limped tc
her and they were locked in one an
others arms.
The telegraph operator was not SC
| fortunate. The message was traced t
him, and he was sent to Siberia. This
was the only cloud upon the lovers
happiness, and Lisa, few years later
while at court. persuaded the emperor
to grant the man a pardon.

Dependency is the leading motive,
claiming about 20 per cent of the vic
tins. Business loss, i'll health and in
sanity follow in order, with about 13
per cent each, disappointment in love
coming next. Suicide on account Of al
coholisn is seventeen times as common
among the males as the females, while
from business loss the number is thir-
teen to one. Between the ages of twen-
~ and thirty is reached the maximum
Of suicides from grief, chagrin and be-
ing crossed in love
Monday is the fayorite day for conn
hitting suicide, followed closely by
Sunday. From Monday down to Friday
there IS an inexplieable increase and

the week. Professor Bailey says OF
this.
"For those who have endured
