he HAS HYPNOTIC LOOK

NEW YORK, Sept. Elm search OF
the beautiful actress who fed from
him on the eve before their wedding
day, Count Leo Nicholajevitch Ka-
zansky is here, the guest of an init
mate friend, who has a fine residence
on the west side of town. For fifteen
years Count Kazansky's agents have
vainly tried to find Viera Antonovna'
Czerni.
IF l do not find her / will kill N.Y.
self" said Count Kazansky with per-
feet calm. 1T is impossible for me
to live longer without her. 1 will
spend my last kopeck to get her.
Kazapsky is said to master of the
hunt on the Cars Siberian estates,
wherever these may be. He is about
40 years old and speaks German and
French fiuently, while the aptitude
for languages which all Russians pos
sess has enabled him to gain a fair
knowledge of English in the few weeks
he has been in this country.
after l was graduated from the
university in Moscow" he said to-
day, my father chose for me a bride

liked her. but we were betrothed; she
died suddenly. After a while Alexan-
der Ill, fatheN of the present Gear,
arranged a match for me. He select
ed for me a princess of a foreign fam
lily, princely but poor. OF course. 1
did not love her, but 1 had to obey
the Cars will. The marriage was to
be celebrated in our house church on
49,, fo+LA-y. ootatoc An NC ofoa1 ho-
fore the priest | looked at my bride.
I was famed for possessing the hyp-
motto look. All my adherence of her
must have been expressed In my eyes.
She shrieked and fell unconscious.
After four days the princess died. A
~post-mortem examination proved she
had suffered a stroke of apoplexy."
Then this master of the hunt on the
Cars Siberian estates went on telling
about his hearts desire thusly.
II was convinced 1 could never love
until the night l saw the Waltz Viera
Antonovna on the stage in Nishm Nov
gorod. 1 loved her. / proposed mar
riage; she accepted me. My father, en-
chanted by her, did not object. On the
evening before l was TO be her husband
we had a. long talk, walking in the
fields In the moonlight. There h con-
fessed to me that she belonged to the
revolutionary party, and would marry
me only when / promised to kill the
Car, during a hunt, or join her in a
plot. so that she could assassinate my
sovereign.
That was rather q stiff proposition
for the master of the Cars Siberian
Hunt, and he would not promise what
the lear lady asked. He would not be-
tray her, however, and he Owed her so
that he was still anxious to marry her.
N"Next morning. at 10 O'clock" the
great man then stated, when the we'd
ding ceremony was to begin and the
guests had assembled, l missed hef. l
hurried to her apartment. The door
was locked. We broke it open. She
was gone. Not a trace of her was eft.
So mysterious was her disappearance
that. following the death of the other
woman, who was to become my wife
I was accused of killing her.
1.-THE Gar" exclaimed the count In
a ri whisper, ordered my arrest
secretly. 1 was imprisoned in a mo-
mastery in Siberia. No one but my
family knew where l was. But hVe
months after ner disappearance got a
brief letter from my Vera post-marked
in New York. She told me she was III
a free country and would never return.
4 pray that you will be happy without
me- she wrote"
