EXPECTED A PARDON.
The credullty of the cars subjects,
| mingled with IL half-sayagey love ct
| crime, provided punishment does not
| follow, often results i'll strange acts. i
| have Just heard Of q case of a young
| peasant boy Of is, who reported to 1.-THE
| gendafmes of village in Monyhew
that his father had been murdered
The fathers body was found, terribly
mutilated. A Ratchet lay close by GOV
cred with blood ~ few questions elicit
ed the fact that tho only person who
had been near the dead man was his
son, who ultimately admitted having
killed his father. The boys behavior
during the subsequent trial was so
quiet and Indifferent that the judges
remarked upon it. When sentenced to
20 years exile in Siberia (the heaviest
sentence that. can be imposed except
pnder martial laW) he became terribly
excited, and declared that it could not
possibly be true because the ear had
promised to pardon him.
The lad was regarded as insane. but
the priest who visited him learned that
he haii gone to a fair some weeks be-
fore the murder and met alsprorok" ta
kind or prophet) WHO had told him his
future in consideration of Il present
of eggs, According to the wise man.
the lad was under the special protection
of the car, and could do anything he
liked without being punished for 1t, be-
cause the ruler had Just issued an
ukase to the effect that he would for
give all is male subjects under p for
any crime they might commit within
the following six months. The lad,
who had Hitherto been q quiet sort OF
boy, set to racking his brains as to
what big crime he might commit. since
no punishment would be melted out to
him. At last, he told the priest he
thought of killing his father, as that
seemed to- him the greatest possible
crime. He bore no grudgc against his
parent, but he said, lit seemed too
good u chance to throw away. planned
it for a long time, as IT. was hard To
be alone with hinl--sume of my broth-
ers or sisters were always i'll the hut.
and they would get no pardon from the
ear as they are all Older than u
To the very day Of his starting for
the mines, nc hoped the czar's pardon
would come, and told the priest he was
sure that the people entrusted with It
had been killed. and that one day ne
would get 1t. 1t this sentence IS ever
shortened by a. coronation, or BIRTH
day manifesto, he will certainly believe
that il is the long lost pardon coming
from the car.
