Paul in Petersburg Is to Russia.
Should this country ever escape from
the Russian yoke it will meet the
same fate as the bastile during the
French revolution of 1889.
A visitor to the citadel is struck by
its pleasant appearance. There are
no gray walls or lowering towers.
Warm, red brick pavilions, a gold
domed church, well-swept walks, and
grass plots flanked by cannon balls ar
rayed in pyramids are the first things
that meet the eye. Soldiers are being
drilled, a band, unseen, but near. is
playing airs from the Geisha, gen.
darme, looking smart in his blue tunic
and red facings, casts a glance at you
as he hurries with dispatches to the
commentaries quarters behind the
church. The place looks like an IN
usually well-kept garrison in central
Russia, and that is ALL
How Political Suspects Disappear.
That is the way the citadel appears
to the casual visitor, but it is alto
gether different to the Polish political
suspects. When for some reason or
other suspicion falls upon a person,
he or she is seized by the gendarmes
and the house searched Then the
prisoner is taken to the citadel and
into the Office Of what is known as
the tenth pavilion" There he is
photographed and his valuables taken
from him. Men and women all re-
ceiye the same treatment, as there are
no female warders in the citadel
After being closely inspected by the
warders. the prisoners name, age, oe-
cupation, ETC., are entered In the
books, and he is conducted into
long, dimly lighted corridor, into
which a number Of small iron doors
open. They are those of the cells.
One of these doors is opened, the
prisoner feels rough push from be-
hind, hears the clang of door, finds
himself in a narrow den, furnished

with a bed, table and chair, and light
ed by a small barred window high up
in the wall.
The silence, but for the occasional
tramp Of sentries' feet, is as the
silence of the grave; the air, damp
and close, bed, hard and narrow.
Worse than all are the two eyes,
which, glaring through the grating in
the door, watch him day and night till
it seems as if they look into his very
soul, reading the secrets he must use
all his strength to keep.
But there are other hardships to
be borne. No books, nor letters, not
q cigarette, not even the friendly tick
of watch breaks the monotony of
those long, unmarked hours and rest
less nights. His warders treat him
like a dog; he spends five minutes
daily outside his cell-three in a small
court and two in going there and
back. This life goes on sometimes for
two weeks, sometimes for as many
months.
Then one night, when he Is sleep
ing uneasily in the narrow bed, the
iron door is flung open and his ward
ers tell him to get up and dress.
Dazed and disheveled. he follows them

through winding passages and into a
room-the sort of rooLa he might have
known long ago, before he went to
the tenth pavilion.
His eyes, unused to the glare, can
only take in the details gradually, but
before long he sees the pretty furni-
ture, bright curtains, the birds, flow
ers and books which surround him.
His warders have gone and he is left
alone. But not for long.
Like the Spanish Inquisition.
A portiere is drawn aside two
spruce officers of the gendarmerie en-
ter and ask him in friendly tones to
sit down. This common act of civility
often makes a poor creature shut up

Warder's brutal speeches, burst into
tears. He sits down bewildered, tea

CHAPTER VIII

The two discoveries of this awkward
secret held a council of war. Vickers
was for at once calling the guard, and
announcing to the prisoners that the
plot-whatever it might be-had been
discovered; but Pine, accustomed to con-
Wet ships, overruled this decision
You don't know these fellows as well
as l do" said he. I'm the first place
there may be no mutiny at all. The
whole thing is, perhaps, some absurdity
of that fellow Dawes-and should we
once put the notion of attacking us into
the prisoners heads, there is no telling
what they might do
But the man seemed certain" said
the other. He mentioned my wife's
maid, toor
''Well,' says Pine, ''look here. Sup
pose we tell these scoundrels that their
design is known. Very good. They will
profess absolute ignorance and try again
on the next opportunity, when, perhaps.
we may not know anything about it. At
all events, we are completely ignorant
of the nature of the plot and the names
of the ringleaders. Let us double the
sentries, and quietly get the men under
arms. Let Miss Sarah do what she
pieases, and, when the mutiny breaks
out, we will nip it in the bud, clap all
the villains we get in irons, and hand
them over to the authorities in Hobart
Town. | am not a cruel man, sir, but
we have got a cargo of wild beasts
aboard, and must be careful"
According to the usual custom on
board convict ships, the guards relieved
each other every two hours, and at 6
p. m. the guard was removed to the
quarterback. and the arrus which, in
the day time. were disposed on the top
of the arm chest, were placed in an arm
rack constructed on the quarterback for
that purpose. Trusting nothing to Frere

CHAPTER YI.-(Continued.l


He spoke truly. Through the roar
was heard the rattle of iron on iron,
as the guard ''stood to their arms" and
the wedge of gray cloth broke, in sud
den terror of the leveled muskets. There
was an instants pause, and then old
Pine walked, unm0ested, down the pris-
on, kneIt by the body of Rufus Dawes.
"Stand back, my Iads!' he said. 'Take
him up, two of you, and carry him to
the door, The poor fellow won't hurt
you" His orders were obeyed, and the
old man, waiting until his patient had
been safely received outside, raised his
hand to command attention. Il see you
know what [ have to tell. The fever
has broken out. That man has got it.
It is absurd to suppose that no one else
will be seized. I might catch it myself.
You are much crowded down here, l
know; but, my lads, l can't help that;

is a terrible thing, but you must keep
orderly and quiet, and bear it like men.
You know what the discipline is, and it
is not in my power to alter it. l shall
do my best for your comfort, and I look
to you to help me-"
Holding his gray head very erect in
deed, the brave old fellow passed
straight down the line, without looking
to the right or left.
He had said just enough, and he reach
ed the door amidst a chorus of "Bravo"
''True for you, docther" and so on. But
when he got fairly outside, he breathed
more freely. He had performed tick
lish task, and he knew it.

from his corner, 'a-cheerin' at the noos"

$50 delegates, depending on how perfect
the organization was made.
The delegates should, of course. all be
sent to the convention uninstructed, but
pledged to act together Then the steer
ing committee of one OF two from each
State should plan its compaign and get
busy trading with tha candidates.
1t is calculated that by this plain the
South could force some good offices from
the managers. Some of the best things
in the diplomatic service, at least two
Cabinet positions. and a better recog-
milton in the consular service. are among
the things demanded.
Similar Plan Before.
1t is not generally known. but in 1904
efforts were made to perfect both
solid South syndicate and Far West
syndicate. to handle solid blocks of votes
in the Republican convention.
This was really a part of the anti
Roosevelt movement. George W. knight.
of California, figured out combination
of eleven Western. Pacific and noun
tain States. with a total Of ,ninety-four
votes, and including California, Oregon.
Washington. Montana. Idaho, Colorado,
Wyoming. Utah. Nevada and the two
DakotaS-
1t was part of the Hanna movement,
which was d good deal more definitely
organized than most people have ever
believed. Even after the death of
Hanna, knight and his associates tried
to hold their syndicate together to pool
their strength on the Vice Presidential
nomina ton. But when they got to
Chicago and found the convention beg
ging for candidate instead of fighting
over Il half dozen, and nobody but Fair
banks willing to accept. the. Westerners
had TO give UP their trial heat scheme
Was for Hanna
AT the same time that Knight and his
allies were working up this scheme in
the West the anti-RooseveIt people
were also organizing a Southern pool
similar TO the one Lyon is now plan
ning.~ This was to be launched ostensi-
bly, for the purpose OF giving the South
Il fair hearing in the convention, but it
was In fact to be used for Hanna If the
delegates could be corralled
The possibilities of such an organiZa-
ton are obvious. Probably ii could never
be held together, certainly not without
Il tremendous cost. But in the next con-
Yention there will. from present indica-
lions. be magnificent battle of inter
ests and factions, and big prices may be
paid in influence and opportunity and
patronage.
