The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1911-10-05

pressure under which the nation
groaned; and eXorted them to remain
true to the revolutionary cause at all
hazards. In concluding she said:
1--WE are now on the eve Of an up
rising that will shake Russia to her
boundaries. Blood must flow, for
great upheavals in history are not ac-
complished without the aid of the
sword and dagger. Ere another day
has passed away the arch tyrant will
have gone to join his father, in COM
pany with many of the miscreants who
execute his orders. To Brother
Savelyev has fallen by lot the task
of exploding the first machine which
is to wreck the palace. Brother is all
prepared?'
A tall, middle-aged man stood up
and saluted the presiding officer. "All
is prepared" he said. Tomorrow at
six in the afternoon the signal will
be given"
A murmur of approval went round
the circle. When it had subsidized,
Madam Dubois again addressed the as
sembly. This Is not ALL" she said,
smiling. 81, too, will have accom-
plished something of moment for the
benefit of the society before noon to-
morrow. Recently in London it was
my fortune to become possessed Of
certain information concerning plans
of the Russian government with re-
gard to :; foreign power. For weeks
l have waited in order to obtain a
fitting price from the power in ques-
ton in return for the knowledge Of
my secret. In the morning an agent
from Austria will visit my house pre-
pared to pay over a large amount of
money for the surrender of the docu-
ments l hold. The effect of this will
be to plunge Russia into a war with
Austria. With the government shocked
to it's center by the Staying of its
tyrant heads, and embroiled in a
struggle with a powerful neighbor.
the path of the revolutionists will be
made easy. Already we number in
our ranks many adherents who wear
the military uniform. When the word
is given their weapons will be turned
to aid, not destroy, their brothers.
The money received from the Aus
trian agent l will devote to the COM
mon brotherhood fund. The papers
are here"
She held on high a bundle Of docu-
ments, at the sight Of which the
brethren broke into a subdued cheer.
At the same moment a dark, thick
set man, who until now had remained
in the background, pushed forward to
where Madam Dubois was sitting. His
face was partially concealed by a
huge wooden muller and a fur cap
that came down far over his brows.
Extending his hand he snatched the
papers from the grasp Of the astound-
ed president and backed hastily to the
wall. Here he stood silent for an in
slant, and then laughed aloud as
anger.
There is q traiter in our midst!"
she cried shrilly. How gained he
admittance here? Seize him, broth
ers!"
Several men pushed forward at her
command, but came to an abrupt halt
at the sight of huge steel revolver
that glittered wickedly in the stran-
gers hand.
Stand back, fools" he roared in
voice of thunder. 1.-The first man that
approaches me dies. Your plots are
discovered, and l arrest you all in the
name Of the car. Without there,
comrades, enter!"
He raised his hand an instant as he
shouted the final words, and fired a
shot into the ceiling. He was an
swered by q cheer from outside, there
was a rush of many feet, the cellar
door burst open, and troop of heavily
armed gendarmes entered. Michael
Danevitch, for it was none other than
the intrepid detective who had pene-
trated in disguise to the haunt Of the
revolutionists, gave his orders in
quick. short tones, and the occupants
of the cellar were seized and placed
in custody.
Count Borolosky, mourning over the
disgrace that had befallen his name,
was reused to something like thank
fulness by the receipt of a message
from st. Petersburg which informed
him that the stolen treaty had been
recovered, and that the woman who
had ruined his son was safe in the
grip of the law. By Danevitch's clever
work, the Nihilist plot for the destruc-
ton Of the car and his cabinet had
been rendered impotent. All Of the con-
spirators were given severe sentences
for their completely in the threatened
uprising; and for the willy Madam Du-
bois there remained the living death
of perpetual exile in the frozen wastes
Of Siberia.
