tor told me that dad was IN a condition
of nervousness that he needed something
to happen to get his mind off Of the
awful scenes he had witnessed, and
asked me if l couldn't think of some
thing to excite him, and wake him up,
and then dad said, after he got so he
could go out doors: "Hennery, you have
always been Johnny on the spot when
needed diversion, and want you to take
your brain apart, and oil the works, and
see if you can't conjure up something to
get my blood circulating and my pores
open for business, and anything you
think of goes, and l swear l will not
kick if you scare the boots off of me-"
Well, that was right into my hand.
and set my mind to strike at four p. m.
l had been out riding once with the Chi
cago man, in sledge, with three horses
abreast, all runaway horses, and the
driver was a Cossack who dashed the
horses into run every smooth place he
found in the road, and it was like rum
ming to fire. so got the Chicago fell
low to go with me and we found the Co.'S
sack and he was drunken than usual.
There is kind Of liquor here called
vodka, which skins wood alcohol and
carbolic acid to finish, and when man
is full of it he is so mad he wants to cut
his own throat. This driver had put
up sideboards on his neck and had two
jags in one, and we hired him by the
hour.
told the Chicago man the circum-
stances and that l had got to get dad
out of his trance, and he said he would
help me. When I was out riding the
day before l noticed that the road was
full of great dane dogs, wolf hounds and
stag hounds, which followed their
masters sledges out in the country, and
the dogs loafed around, hungry, looking
for bones, and fighting each other, so
decided to get the dogs to chase our
sledge, and make dad think we were
chased by wolves. thought that would
make dad stand without hitching, and
it did.
The Chicago man bought some cannon
firecrackers, and bought cows liver,
and hitched it to rope, and hid it in the
back seat, and my Chicago friend and
took the back seat, and we got dad in the
seat behind the driver, and started about
an hour before dark out in the country,
through piece Of woods that looked
quite wolfy. On the way out the driver
let his horses run away few times, like
you have seen in Russian pictures, and
dad was beginning to sit up and take
notice, and seemed to act like man who
expects every minute to be thrown over
precipice, and mixed up with dead
horses. Dad touched the driver once on
the coat-tail and told him not to hurry
so COMPOUNDED fast, and the driver
thought he was complaining because it

day. Nobody had a gun, and no one
would have known how to use gun, and
all looked like poor people going to
prayers. There were troops everywhere,
and every soldier acted as though he
was afraid something would happen to
spoil their chance of killing anybody.
The snow on the streets was clean and
as white as the wings of peace dove
and dad said the show was no better
on Labor day.
Suddenly some officer yelled to the
parade to stop, and the priest at the head
of the procession, who was carrying a
cross, slowed up little, like the drum
major of band when the populace at
home begins to throw eggs, but they kept
on, and then the shooting began, and in
q minute men, women and children were
rolling in the snow, bleeding and dying,
the marchers were too stunned to run,
and the deadly guns kept on splitting
fire, and the street was full of dead and
the dead and sabered and knouted the
living, and as the snow was patched with
red blood, dad tainted away and fell off
the picket fence, and hung by one pant
leg, which caught on picket, and
crowds rushed in every direction, and
it was an hour before could get .
drosky to haul dad to the hotel.
Dad collapsed when he got to the hotel,
and got doctor and nurse, and for
two days had to watch the revolution
alone, while dad had fits of remorse
cause he brought me to such a charnel
house, he said.
Well, if you ever go anywhere, travel
ing for pleasure, do not go to Rus
STA, because it is the saddest place on
earth. I have seen no person smile or
laugh in all the ten days we have been
here, except a Cossack when he run a
saber through little girl, and his laugh
was like the coyote on the prairie when
he captures a little lamb. The people
look either heart-broken or snarly. like
