the dispatch for you"
She went to her cabin and Hardy
made his few hurried preparations for
departure, which consisted simply In
swallowing a few mouthfuls of "a
kouska, in filing his flask with vodka,
and in slipping into his pocket a fiat
bottle, empty, but tightly corked.
When he returned to the deck, he
found the princess awaiting him, with
the dispatch ready. Hardy wound it
into tight cylinder and poked it into
the bottle, which he corked and put
into his pocket.
Thank you," he said, simply, to the
princess.

He raised the hand to his lips, then
climbed lightly over the rail and
dropped into the river. The water

place. He did not look back, but,

his knees touched the soft sand, and

Remarkably Brief Sermon.

a monk, who had to preach on st.

his brotheiT monks intimated quietly
that they were very hungry and would
be obliged if he would get his sermon
through as quickly as possible. So he
began: "My brethren, year has

old generals displeasure-and it was
not easy to bear.

II became positively convinced that
the Japanese mean to make war on
Russia; that no diplomatic temporiz-
ing can postpone the struggle much
longer. The whole nation, to man,
to a woman, to child, is united
against us by the bonds of the most
fanatic hatred. Their population
comprises no classes, no disaffected
races; they are unit in this matter.
The war will be one to the death, and
they will fight until the last man is
killed. I concluded, moreover, that
they are not a foe to be despised.
They are formidable sea power, and
they can throw large and we'll

believe that Japan is so formidable
an adversary as you say"
''You will see," replied Romanoff,
with conviction
"Well, let her begin the war!" said
the princess, rising, her eyes flashing.
There can be only one outcome of
it, and that will result in the added
prestige and power of Holy Russia!
