generally the Christian population, are
not The Moslem once taken into Rus
sian service, would be faithful whereas
the Russian police make a show or hunt

in their pay. This view is not confirmed
by the fact that the government for years

Once he was surrounded in a swamp by
thirty policemen, but by good shooting
he killed six and put the rest to flight.
The authorities were then fighting the
Christian revolutionary movements by
means of setting the Moslem Tartars on
the revolutionaries, and Doll Ali was
chosen To take command. He did ad-
mirably and arranged several massacres
of Armenians. which gave great pleasure
TO the authorities
Doll Ali had an interview with the gov
ernor of E.izabethpol, whose cousin he
had murdered. The governor begged him
to restore order in the town This he
did When the Armenian revolutionaries
began work in the Siemens mines at Ked-
abag. Doll Ais brother brought 400 ban
dts TO suppress them This was good
business for the government as against
the revolution, but it meant giving free
hand and license to the Moslem bandits
to do as they liked. And when Doll All

money being paid he sent them home
unharmed
The Armenian girl, Soft. had fallen
violently in love with her captor. A
few days after release she fed from her
fathers house. leaving a note which
SAID she was off to the Turkish from
tier, where she hoped to find Abdul.
A sotnia of Cossacks was sent out
after her. The Cossacks discovered
Abduis camp in the high mountains
twenty miles to the south of Kars.
Orders were given to surround the
camp. AS the Cossacks were about to
attack they saw the girl, Soft, foot
sore and ragged, making her way
slowly along river channel The Rus
sian commander made a signal to the
men to be careful. The men misun-
derstood and opened fire. Three of
Abdurs men fell. The Cossacks rushed
in and hand hand struggle took
place, during which five of the brigands
were killed or wounded, two captured
unwounded, while Abdul and the rest
got away. The girl had mysterfously
disappeared. She was found dead in
the channel with bullet wound in her
head. The bullet was Russian.

their heels the ''strazhnikf got voiley.
The girls are supposed to have been
taken into Turkey, where they are In
some kurd'S harem And few weeks
later there was an attack of the same
kind on an Armenian family near kulpi.
The pursuit failed. But one of the
bandits who was caught, wounded, in
formed the police that the head of the
band was a certain robber, kerim, who
has been sought for by the police OF two
countries for twenty years.
Next raid was made on government
sub-treasurer Of Kars. The treasurer

recognized from descriptions the same
Kerim. And now this most dangerous
best educated and most slippery of all
bandits in Caucasus history Is supposed
to be hidden near Mount Ararat, and 300
Cossacks and "strazhniki'' are trying to
find his trail.
Kerims bandit career is uncommon. He
is a Russian Turcoman by birth, the
grandson of chief who rendered Russia
services In the great war against Schamyl.
Kerim was sent to school in the excellent
gymnasium of Elzabethpol. He had

and German. He was highly cultivated

This, il was imagined would bring
Selim to terms. Lately the bandits fami-
lies we're allowed to cd home. and they
settled In the village of Start Yurt near
Grosni. The police imagined that Selim
would visit his wife, and in that way
they would catch him. They were right
only in the first supposition- Selim ap-
peared at Start Yurt in unexpected
strength, put the little garrison to flight
and natd his wife a visit. He sat with
her half an hour kissed his children
affectionately and on his way off called
