IRON ne Hesfi1n.
II was O'Clock In the morning. In the
large library whero he had spent the night,
the Governor General was busy receiving
and answering the reports constantly sent
in from the various posts established
throughout the insureent city
In spite Of the fur coat which he wore and
the redhot stove beside him, the Governor
shlyered The glass In the windows, broken
by the rioters and a. yet neglected, gave
free passage 70 the cruel winter winds.
The mans face was white, and large black
circles were around his eyes.
Tho fatigues and emotions Of the fright
full day Of the insurrection, through which
he had just passed and which had come
like a thunderbolt TO disturb tie peaceful
gu q, Of his life, had left their marks on his
tired face. and his cigarette hung. unit,
from his pale lips, The knowledge Of his
appearance, his unkempt air, and he the
most correctly dressed man Of the city,
added still another sting 70 his troubles.
He glanced YEARLY, for the thousandth
time, at the broken panes a. he handed the
last despatch TO his aide.
i suppose the glass settlers will reap q
harvest after yesterday ne said bitterly.
Things are quieter to-day, but we must
stIll be on our guard
He repressed a yawn. What would he
not give for a good sleepi After these
tragic hours, this unexpected uprising
In a city whose loyalty 10 the imperial rule
had been legendary, 90 that the position Of
Governor had seemed a sort Of gilded rest
cure; after these massacres, which he had
himself ordered with more Of a sense OF
outraged tedium than danger, the energy
which he was astonished TO have found in
himself was becoming exhausted.
From his window he could see the ravaRes
OF the fight, which had ragged herOest about
the palace The public gardens were
trodden into mud by the cavalry, the gate
wrenohed awry and broken OF, At the
entrance were the smoking ruins Of a once
prosperous cafe, and the snow was stained
with dark spots that had first been red.
The Governor General could hardly
comprehend that such events had taken
place In so short time and that his peace
full life had been shaken by so frlghhul a
crisis.
Gentlemen, you will, Of course. remain
in the palace said he as he dismissed his
officers.
Just my luck!' cried one Of them, Count
Michael Liaguine, as, saluting stiffiy' he
FASTENED out Of the Governors presence
and strobe down the broad stairway.
He was a young man, carefully elegant
in appearance and as active and alert as IL
he had not fought all day and written all
night. He had changed his uniform, and
no trace remained OF the wild riot, save a
slight wound on his forehead. the mark Of a
stone. which, aimed more correctly, must
have killed him.

A crowd Of victims, many eorOly wounded,
breaking the truce established by metS
terror, marched bhndly and wildly through
the streets
the other side Of the bridge, Yemenan
knew that the alarm had been given, But
HE duty was TO deliver the letter In his saddle
bag; this was the instruction he had TO
ceived
He continued TO ride ahead. Another
moment and he was face e iaee with tn ao
insurgents, a column OF white faced, nag
gard men, ready for the supreme saorinoe.
In his grlff, good natured voice Venetian
called loudly:
-wayl Make way thero'
But the brute instincts OF the people
were unclaimed. The rider was sur
rounded, shrill voices rose In biting In
suits. An old man whose fur cap had been
torn in shreds by bayonets, cried "aVer-
sHeres another. Here's another Of
'em!"
A workman, armed with q stick, aimed
a rude blow at the soldiers head. Thus
attacked. YEN lllan spurred his horse
trying TO free himself. But a wave OF
human beings flowed over him, heavy
hands gTasped his bride, paralyzed his
arms. He spoke again: -, -.
A CRY Of rage answered him and a voice
shrieked:
did you and yours have pity Yesterday
XIII himl' yelled hunohbacked beggar'
The revolters swarmed upon this victim
whom the fates had delivered into their
hands. Had they not been ruthlessly shot
down the day before by men like this one9r
Collecting all his strength, Venetian
sought to grasp his sword. The simple
man thought less OF his own danger than
Of the obstacle which threatened to pre-
vent him fr m acc mplishing his Grand.
The sword was torn from his belt, aInld
lou shouts. An insurgent, selling ~
slashed at him wildly and a cruel laugh
greeted the leaping blood.
Venetian fought In vain. His horse,
wounded, cruelty cut with knives, sank
beneath him and the dragon was thrown
down and stamped upon.
A young woman, whose husband had
been taken prisoner, tore one OF the boots
from Yemelian's feet and beat him in the
face with the improvised weapon.
tragic drunkenness possessed the CROWD
their whole suffering was being revenged
upon the soldier their hatred was refined
for his agony.
Venetian swore bitterly beneath the
blows and wounds, but even In his 10 ment
TO the orders he had received. With fast
weakening hands, he still sought to grasp
the saddle bag.
A boy near by seized quickly at his re-
volveT which the soldier had lost in the
struggle. and, echoed by shout Of Joy
from the crowd, placed II at Venetian s
head and sent bullet through his temple.
What was he carrying in the saddle
bag?' cried one Of the old men. Orders
for a second massacre, no doubt
He leaned over the body, tearing the bag
fr m the arms that held It even in death
and opening il, took out the letter which
Venetian had defended with his dying
breath. II was addressed TO the Countess
Douchka SeraskoiT.' he rad It aloud:
Sorry not 20 see you to-day. Love and a
thousand kisses. MICHKA.

WHY WE HAVE oNE.sloEp MEN.
All Faculties Not Sufficiently Exec
cised Is One Reason,

All Faculties Not Sufficiently Exe~
eised Is One Reason.
Faculties must be exercised or they
will not grow. Nature is too good al
economist to allow us to keep any
faculty OF function which we do not
employ. We can have Just what we
use. and that will constantly increase:
everything else will be gradually
taken away from us. Man becomes
strong and powerful and broad just
In proportion to the extent and health
fulness of the activity Of his faculties;
and 1t must not be one.sided, not an
exercise Of n or two faculties, or one
set OF faculties. or the man will topple
over. Balance in life comes from the
healthful exercise Of all the faculties.
One reason why we have so many one
sided men in this country is because
they pursue n idea, exercise one side
Of their nature, and. Of course. they
cannot retain their balance. This Ia
one Of the curses of s%pecialties. They
are a good thing fo- the race. but
death to the individual who pursues
his specially at the expense of the de-
velopment of the all-around man.-O.

Experiment Showed Candle Would
Not Penetrate Plank.
To the Editor OF the Sun: Sir
Some n In the columns OF the Sun
said he shot a candle through a pine
board one inch thick. and the Sun
advised those who were skeptical to
make the experiment for themselves.
Acting on the suggestion, 1 took
my old Queen Anne and put about five
fingers of the best powder in her and
then a candle. and as all the boards
out o. doors have about nine feet Of
snow on top Of them, l took the bot.
tom board of my bunk In the camp
and stuck 1t in the SNOW about seven
fathoms distant and fired.
When I got to the target found
the candle had struck all right. but II
had not even dinted the beard and
was flattened out fiatter than my
pocketbook after I had bought my
winters rum
came to the conclusion that some
one was telling the Sun some damn
lies. However. l did not lose the
candle altogether. I scraped it of
the board and took 1t back into the
camp and fried pancakes with 1t for
my supper.
