In originality Of conception and in.
gonuity of execution, the escape Of
Prince Kropotkin from the prison Of

paralleled in prison annals. Twelve
Conspirators outside the prison took
part in it, but not one Of them was
ever arrested or suspected, although
many Of them We're subsequently BAN
ished to Siberia for other political Of
fenses.
The escape was made In broad day.

noon. in the presence Of three armed
soldiers, and with such novel aces
series as cherries, opera hats. a mouse,
music. a black mare and microscope.
The chances were at least ten to one
that it would fail, Notwithstanding the
extraordinary ingenuity with which 1t
was planned. but every device and
stratagem worked perfectly, and the
liberated prisoner dined that night in
Dnnon's restaurant, the most fashion
able in ST. Petersburg, while the entire
police of the capital was ransacking
the city in search OF him.
Nobody even imagined that he would
be shrewd and bold enough to take
his dinner in SO public a place, and
not a single detective looked for him
