the wolves, and other matters. But
the pointed inquiry brought them on
common ground regarding the Karsi.
chefs.
Why" asked the courier, do you
not believe that story?"
Can l trust you fully and freely?"
asked Cobb.
The courier extended his hand. The
action was enough. A thousand oaths
could not have made the promise
more binding. Cobb in a few words
told the courier all that he knew Of
the Karsicheffs. He told of the lives
OF Ida and Alexis and of Olga and
Ivan, of the raid on the Nihilist rem
devious, the arrests and the circum-
stances under which they took place.
ending with the scene where Karsi-
chef sentenced the prisoners.
The courier listened with intense in.
terest. When he heard that Ivan and
AleXis-the very men for whom he
had given the pardons to their bitter
est enemy-were the heroes of Cobb's
story, his amazement knew no bounds.
His sympathies for the unhappy Olga
were keenly aroused. Suddenly he
had revelation.
And that cry was?" he paused.
"The cry of Olga,"
my God! the poor, poor girl" said
the courier.
Cobb said nothing. He kept think
ing. Olga and the baroness under one
roof. The baroness would never leave
until she had made an effort to rescue
the unhappy girl.
Suddenly the courier turned to
Cobb. you have trusted me freely"
he said, land in return will trust
you"
Then to Cobb's profound amazement
he told him of the pardons granted to
Ida. Alexis and Ivan. Ida, he ex.
planned, was at Stralensk, where he
was going under orders to deliver her
pardon in person. And Ivan and
Alexis were at Chitka. to which point
the pardons were to be forwarded by

months ago. | was the guest of Judge
Thomas, and passed the night in his
fine old colonial mansion. After sew
eral hours of very refreshing sleep l
attired myself and descended, filled
with thoughts OF the splendid enter

was a hoarse voice from an adjoining
room. which said, in a contemplate
tone:
Where the dickens did you come
from?
Il felt rather cheap at being spoken
to in such way and was looking
about for the person who had thus
addressed me. 1t didn't take long to
discover that this first sign of inhos-
pitality I observed in the mansion
came from the judges parrot. He

thoughtfully, and then, as if he had
made up his mind, he produced a
large official envelope. Handing this
to Karsicheff. he said: You will for
ward these papers Immediately tomor-
row morning by a trusted messenger
on whom you can rely to the isprav-
mix at Chitka. You must lose no time
and use relays of horses where neces-
sary. Sign receipt for the pardons!"
"Pardons?"
"Yes. This envelope contains par

paused as the similarity of the name
struck him. Can he be any relation

chef, "have been forwarded by special
relay from the frontier, and are to be
delivered at the earliest moment. You
will be held responsible for any de-
lays. You will sign the receipt
Katherine and Nicholas exchanged
glances.
Karsichef signed the paper-the re-
ceipt for the pardons.

courier: "and now where is my apart

Katherine apparently began to re-
vive and opened her eyes. Where

just recovering consciousness.
Cobb turned his head away and
smiled. The query recalled a joke
he had heard some years before.
karsicheff raised Katherine to a sit
ting position. and then gave a sug-
gestive look to Cobb and the courier.
Rightly constituting it as request
to withdraw they went back to the
open air to finish their cigars.
The courier and Cobb had scarcely
withdrawn from the room when the
Russian turned to his companion and
said: DO you believe that the cry
we heard was uttered by that wom-
an?"

emphatic reply of Cobb.

Tunnel for English Channel.

Since French engineer named Ga.
mond planned submarine tunnel, in
1857, various projects have been ad-
vanced for connecting England with
the continent. The latest Is the sug-
gestion of Bunau-Varilla, who wants
to build tunnel to within three kilo-
meters of England, and thence q
bridge, which England (Which has not
favored tunnel) could destroy at any
time In case of danger of a foreign in
vasion, thus rendering the tunnel use
less.

and then sharply asked: why was
he gagged when l arrived?"
He had been vilifying our imperial
master the czar," said Katherine.
And cursing our holy church"
added Nicholas.
A shade of disappointment passed
over the face of the courier. Il am
sorry to hear it," he said.
Then he was silent and thoughtful
for moment.
See that | have fresh horses ready
by daybreak," at length he said, "and
that my rest is undisturbed.'
You go hence to" said Kath-
crime waiting for the courier to COM
piete the sentence.
Il go hence to Stralensk," replied
the courier, where l am to deliver
pardon to young girl who has
proved herself heroine, having been
the only nurse who was available dur
ing a terrible outbreak of fever. Her
pardon has been granted at the re-
quest of the governor of the prov
ince, who petitioned for it on the
ground that the young girls unselfish
devotion and unfailing exertion was
undoubtedly the means of saving
scores of lives. More than that, she
appealed to the convicts and prevent
ed a dangerous uprising when the
guards were stricken down. All Rus
sia is ringing with the story of her
good deeds"
"Ah," said Katherine, land may
ask the name of this heroine. Doubt
less she is celebrated, but we hear so
little of the worlds news in this out

Certainly" answered the courier.
her name is Ida Barosky,"
Ida Barosky!"
The name was uttered together by
Constantine Karischeff and his wife
and son. 1t was spoken with such
bitterness of surprise-such tone of
incredulous wonderland the courier
could not help giving expression to his
curiosity.
DO you know her?" he asked.
Know her." replied Katherine, Il

ter of the gutter of ST. Petersburg-an
assassin, a reptile-I do know her,

this then is-you are General Karsi-
cheff?"
1t had been the first time the name
was spoken in the presence of the
courier. and he repeated it with
scarcely less surprise in his tones
than the three persons before him

mept before.
What caused his surprise.
That was what the karSicheffs
wanted to know
Their anxiety was interrupted by
the marked change in the couriers
manner. 1t had been polite before
when he spoke. Now there was in his
voice an unpleasant ring which boded
no good.

A gang of fifty men and boys made
cowardly assault on funeral party of about
100 people who were returning from the fu-
neral of a Mr.. Elias Blum, one of the direct
ors of the Hebrew School. When they had
gone a short distance from the cemetery
gate the mob of men and boys appeared
and were attracted to a large wagon in
which a number of the directors and teach
of the Hebrew School were riding. The
rowdies hooted and jeered those in the
wagon, and when stones were thrown at
the occupants Mr.. Abraham Geller, princi-
pal of the Hebrew School, ordered the
waon stopped, thinking to pacify the crowd.
They were greeted with hail of stones and
other missiles, and some in the crowd
discharged iron-tipped arrow which
struck Mr.. Geller with great force over the
heart rendering him unconscious. While
he lay in the road the gang continued its
attack other members of the party and
the injured man was gotten away in hack
with much difficulty. Realizing that the
mob would not be pacified, the mourners
jumped into their wagon and fled amid a
shower of stones. This was the most out
rageous public display of anti-Semitism in
the city.
