The droshky sped like lightning for
fully twenty minutes. The driver
avoided principal streets. I was only

give my name the officer said. Pass

CHAPTER VII.
A GREAT EVENT.

The next day was the ever-nemora-
BILE March 13. 1SS1-the date of the as
sassination of Alexander II. The bomb
which exploded in st. Petersburg shook
the entire empire Immediately the
whole nation was In mourning; the
theaters were closed, music was for
bidden, every place of amusement was
desolated. The very air was filled with
sadness and fear; every heart trembled
with CONSERVATION, for even a loud
laugh was regarded suspiciously. The
student element feared the most for
the students were known as the chief
conspirators. Following the murder,
they were arrested everywhere on the
slightest shadow Of suspicion; thou
sands were imprisoned during that
month. Close watch was kept over ali
the students, and the least suspicion or
denunciation was sufficient to throw
student into prison, perhaps never to
come out again. People in the streets
did not talk above a whisper. One
heard of nothing but arrests.
That night I sat in my room trying to
study, but could not fix my mind upon
my books. The news of the murder of
the Car and fear that in some man
ner the Jews would be made scapegoats
had unnerved me. / moved restlessiy
about my room, stirring my fire, peer
ing out of my window at the snow
sheeted roofs, listening to the passage
Of crunching footsteps and tinkling
sleigh bells.
About midnight there was a gentle
knock on my door. l jumped up with

CHAPTER TX.
BEND TO THE CROSS.

After while we began to talk Of the
years that had passed since I had
tranped through the sleety night away
from Zamok. She told me OF her ex-
periences, all of which were very quiet.
for her life had moved on evenly and
happily; and I told her OF the Yeshiva
of Javolin. of Make, of the gymna-
sium at Vino. Then our talk became
more broken.
How surprised father will be to
learn who you really are" she said at
one time during the evening. I made
haste to suggest that it might be wis
est not to reveal my identity to him
just yet, giving reasons which, though
plausible, were not the ones which
actually Influenced me To this she
agreed.
When I told her the poems which
appeared weekly in the Moskovski
Gazette, and for which she had often
expressed admiration, were mine, she
assumed an 'I-told-you-so" air that
was bewitching.
Don't you remember. used TO say
that some day you would be a great
poet like Pushkin or Lermontoh-"
And then" I interrupted her, you
remember what you promised?"
why, you foolish Israel-then," she
laughed rapturously and dropped her
head on my breast.
I asked about the officer whom I had
seen so frequently at her house and TO
whom I had that day been introduced.
and she confessed to me that he had
proposed to her twice within the last
two weeks.
When you think OF that fine-1ook-
ing man how can you love me?" I
asked with a tinge of Jealousy. Ne
a Jew?"
"Oh, you foolish, foolish boyl" she
cried. again showing her affection in
a way that was mere expressive than
words.

CuPTD,s ARROWS.

When I called to give my pupil her
first lesson found her father present.
A shiver passed through me as he

me. but his remark that followed con-
vinced me that he had not

you before"
I made an evasive remark, and he
chatted on, asking about my native
town. my parents, my previous studies;
TO most Of which questions. am sorry
TO record. gave false replies in order
TO avoid suspicion.
As he sat talking in his big armchair
I watched him furtiveiy. The change
in him was almost startling; his hair
and beard were fast turning white. and
there was a perceptible nervousness in
his movements: even the hue of his
skin had changed His eyelids dropped
frequently, and there was certain

felt competent to teach, and explain

Two days later the answer came.

glad indeed to talk with me and per-

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Offenders Taken in Since Saturday
 Were Dealt With TO-Day.

The police had an easy Christmas. There was practically nothing at all doing in their business since Saturday evening Yesterday, though many Of the factories were closed, and 1t was fine day for paying the compliments of the season, only one arrest was made. and that for plain, ordinary kind of intoxicatlon.
 The cases before the city court dur ing the past two days were Charles Mclean. breach of the peace. Me- Lean raised disturbance in his board, ing house on, South Main street and was given thirty days in which to pay S7 and costs.
 John and Joseph Coughlin were drunk Saturday evening and made things lively for Officers Kiersted and Colesanto when taken into custody. The transaction cost John $20 and Jos eph $15.
 James Quirk was arrested Saturday for violating his probation. He was given thirty days in jail and the old sentence, $5 and costs, was put in > The case against Irving Iipsitch for violating the itinerary vendor law will be heard Wednesday. This man was arrested upon the complaint of the Business Mems association. He came to town a week ago and opened busi@ ness on South Main street without giv- ing any attention or remaining here permanently or taking out license.

CHRISTMAS OBSERVED.
Salvation Army and Boys Club Fed
 Efauy People.

Waterbury enjoyed very quiet Christmas, there being no disturbance of any account, andl with the exception of a few coasting mix-ups no serious accidents. although thousands ran big risks in coasting on streets used by the trolley cars and in places where there Is much travel by teams
 The attendance at the churches both at the morning and evening services were satisfactory and showed that Wa terbury people were bound to observe the day in Christian manner Spe- cial music was rendered for the occa- sion and decorations appropriate to the season were very much in evidence. The pastors wished their congregations happy Christmas and at nearly ali the services sermons telling the story Of the birth of the Saviour were deliY, cred.
 The weather was fine overhead, ai> though somewhat treacherous under foot, as many will remember: cola enough to make one feel the necessity of hurrying up in order not to freeze to death and yet not so cold but one could keep warm if he didn't get too lazy and loiter by the way, so that 1t was a lively day all around. Every, body about the streets was on the go, and necessarily so, too.
 A great deal of missionary work was done in the way of helping the poo1 The Salvation Army and the Boys club fed large numbers, and the sew eral churches and many private indh viduals performed excellent service and made thousands happy. They gave generously, but unostentatiously, with the result that while many sud, denly came into possession of good things for the Christmas dinner, they were left to surmise where they came from.
 The youngsters were in their glory and if Santa Claus could have seen all the happy faces he made among the little tots and known all the mischief he stirred mp among the older folks, who had to listen to the beating Of drums and screaching of horns until they were almost crazy, he wouldn't know what to say regarding his ef- forts as promoter of mirth during the Christmas time.
 While the day was generally ob, served on Sunday, yesterday was also a holiday and in some respects q tride livelier than Sunday, because moro people were on the streets and the weather was not quite so cold. Coast ing and skating made 7ip the principal attraction and thousands took advan. tage of the idle dayfto indulge in the pastime.
