The Printing Off.ce,


Mentikoff's printing office
stands in the most artisocratic
part of Kief. IT was here that
Alexandra, Michael, Padlewsky,

workmen, they had entered the
printers shop uprecognized,
At II o'clock that night Koro-
left appeared amongst them and
told them the dreadful news. AS
he was talking. Countess Kous-
mine, Nadege and Verenine en-
tered.
When Nadege was told that Ste
pane was again under arrest she
nearly tainted.
'He is lost! He is lost!" she
cried. "Oh, Koroleff! save him
this time, and l will give you my
whole fortune; I will devote my
whole life to the cause"
"Koroleff. said Verenine. 81
will do anything to deliver our
friends; I am perfectly willing to
lay down my life for them"
1t was o'clock on the follow
ing evening. when Koroleff. Dress
ed in the ecclesiastical robes of a
superior of the monastery. his
skin dyed a swarthy brown and
his beard long and snow white,
proceeded on his way to deliver
Litzanoff from Jail.
Deceiving the superstitious p0r-
ter by producing q false permit,
he was conducted with all cour-
tesy into the prison and in the
narrow cell, occupied by Stepane,
made a quick change of clothing
with the prisoner.
Listen to me, Stepane," said
Koroleff. Your wife gave 1t to me
for the purpose of getting you out
of prison"
SIS my wife in Kieff?"
yes; and If I had not promised
to get you out, she would certain
ly have gone to the governor, and
so made an end of everything"
THAT is just like her." said Ste
pane. what are you going to do
with the money!"
"Bribe the watchmen and the
|sentinels, and escape, all four of
us. Now make haste" he contin-
ued, "look down, lean your head
forward, put on your hat, walk
slowly and with dignity, raise your
shoulders, draw your elbows into

 After George Washington and his brothers had left this farm and after the marriage of Betty Washington to Mai. Fielding Lewis of Fredericksburg, Mrs. Mary Washington bought cot tage in Fredericksburg, close to Ken more, the home of her daughter, and resided there many years. She died in that cottage August 25, l7S9.
 The cottage is plain two-story frame dwelling standing at the corner of Charles and Lewis streets-two viii lage streets deep in dust or mud ac- cording to the weather. The house is heavily shaded by old sycamore trees and is furnished with Washington and other Virginia relics. It is owned and cared for by the Society for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities The superintendent is R. C. Beals, who, with his wife, occupies the house.
 The big living room on the ground floor and to the left of the entrance is that in which Mrs Washington died. As nearly as possible it is pre- served as Mrs. Washington kept it. A rare old mahogany tester bed stands on that part of the floor where stood Mrs. Washington's bed. The original bed is owned by member of the Washington family. The walls are lined with steel engravings which be- longed to Mrs. Washington, and some of these were her property when she was Mary Ball before her marriage to Augustine Washington, and came from her girlhood's home, "Eppng Forest" in Lancaster county, about thirty miles from Fredericksburg. The room in the rear of this living and sleeping room was the dining room, and the same table around which the Washingtons ate stands in the middle of the floor The dining-room is bare of carpets or rugs and was in Mrs Washington's time. The furnishings are plain and simple.

 The landscape gets beaker the train moves south. The mountains of Moab are passed some distance to the west, and the track Is laid far out in the desert. where the valleys wide and easy to cross. and before they deepen into narrow ravines as they enter the mountains.
 The old pilgrim route is followed very close ly throughout and at the stations the stone cisterns and reservoirs, to provide supply or water to the pilgrims are noticed. water De- comes very scarce; in a few places wells have been dug and water Is raised by windpumps. For some reason boring for artesian wells does not seem to have been tried. One at tempt was made in rocky ground, and when the drills broke no further attempts were made.
 Az the line approaches Maan an extremely desolate country is traversed. Low ranges ap- pear to the east apparently of sandstone or limestone formation, although the ground IS strewn thickly with black fragments Of obsl- dian along some sections Of the line. The Ia vines now trend eastward, to lose tnemseiVes fin wide depression in that direction as shown in the recent maps of this country by

The small town. containing some good stone and mud houses. is not visible from the railroad, but lies beyond a hill nearly mile off Two copious springs supply the necessary water.
 Date palms are reared; small gardens with various kinds of fruit trees and a few fields of corn are visible, but from little distance the ptace is little else than drab patch on gray landscape. It's principal distinction is its prox- imity to the rocky city of Petra ride of some eight hours to the west among the Moab hills. The climate of Maan is invigorating, both in winter and summer, as the place stands 3,525 feet above sea-evel surrounded by the dry, in- vigoratng air of the desert.

As many as three four hun dred Italian workmen were employed at one time the works Tebuk, and so little did fanaticism come into play that they built the fine mosque at Tebuk Subsequently they instructed some Turkish engineers, who continued the work from Fl Ula to the Holy City itself
 It is difficult to think of this railroad be- coming a great highway or developing any great trade with Central Arabia as the sec tion from Maan to Medina traverses an unpro ductive country without possibility of develop ment. and the interior of Arabia has no sur plus products to dispose of. In any case when the line reaches the sea, at Sherm Rabigh it is probable that any trade, either export or i'm port, to Medina or Mecca will pass through that port in preference to the long land jour ney The following summary of distances shows the extent of the line:
 Damascus to Maan ................2 .285 miles Dahiascus to lepuk ...............43O 43O miles Damascus to Fl Ula .............6 6O9 miles Damascus to Medina .S20 miles Damascus to Mecca ............... 1097 miles
 The gauge of the line is the somewhat curl ous one of 1.05 meter 6 feet 5A nches). which necessary when the line was first commenced, to correspond with the gauge of the Beirut-Damascus line, over which the roll ing stock had to be brought. The branch to the Mediterranean at Haifa, was constructed subsequently,. The rails were supplied by the American Steel Trust, by French firm dom iciled in Russia, and by the firm of Cockerill in Belgium.
 The engineers in charge of sections were also of various ationaties-French. Poles, Hungarians, etc-while the guiding spirit in the construction has been Messner Pasha, 8 very able German engineer. But besides these the general direction has been under Marshal Kiazim Pasha, to whom the greatest credit Is due in bringing the line successfully into Me dina and to Hajjl Mukhtar Bey a brilliant Turkish engineer, who has absorbed all mod ern methods of construction, and completed the last section into Medina without European assistance.
 In conclusion, it is dificu which to admire the most, this far-reaching conception of his majesty the sultan-to build the line and thus to further the interests of his religion and bind together the outlying portions of his empire the silent, answering devotion of the Turk ish soldier who has carried the matter to A conclusion, and who watches without com. plaint over miles of line through a country aL most without water or inhabitants.
