WELL PLANNED AND CARRIED
Prince kropotkln's Escape From Prize
on Hospital Ono Of the Most Daring
Recorded In History.

In originality Of conception and In
genuity Of executions, the escape OF
Prince Kropotkin from the prison Of
the Nikolaievsk Military hospital In
st. Petersburg in 1879 Is probably un,
paralleled in prison annals. Twelve
conspirstors outside the prison took
part In it, but not one Of them was
ever arrested or suspected, although
many of them were subsequently ban
ished to Siberia for other political Of
lenses.
The escape was made In broad day
light, about FIVE o'clock in the after.
noon, in the presence Of three armed
soldiers, and with such novel aces
sories as cherries, opera hats. mouse
music, black mare and microscope,
The chances were at least ten to one
that it would fail, Notwithstanding the
extraordinary ingenuity with which II
was planned, but every device and
stratagem worked perfectly, and thu
liberated prisoner dined that night in
Demons restaurant, the most fashion
able in st. Petersburg, while the entire
police of the capital was ransackinl
the city in search Of him.
Nobody even imagined that he would
be shrewd and bold enough to take
his dinner in so public place, and
not a single detective looked for hin
there, although search was made II
scores of other places, and every exit
from the city was so carefully guarded
that a mouse could hardly have crepi
