THE 0AMsEL AND THE DUNGEON.

In the year 1864 the Empress Cath
crime II was seated upon the throne
OF Russia, but not so firmly that she
really enjoyed herself. In those days
It was impossible to throw a brick
in Russia without hitting two or three
conspirators. Intrigue was profes-
sion rather than a pastime, and the
leading patriots had a disagreeable
habit of strangling and otherwise muir
dering their rulers.
So Catherine, as she sat on her
throne, reigning according to the rules
laid down by the National league, kept
close tab on all that was going on,
not only in Russia but wherever 1t was
possible to have her spies. She was
determined that she wouldn't be taken
unawares. One day she received a
message from Florence, to the effect
that Prince Charles Radziwill was
paying court to Helen Tarakanoff, and
it was the general belief in Italy that
the two would soon be married.
Catherine became so agitated that
she almost upset her throne when
she sprang to her feet and shrieked an
order for Prince Gregory Orloff to
wait upon her.
Helen Tarakanoff had been the
belle of Florence and Leghorn for sew
eral seasons. Her beauty was cele-

proceeded up the Neva to the fortress.
and there the wretched princess was
conducted along dark and noisome cor
ridors, dripping and oozing water, and
was shown into black dungeon, wet
and foul. At the door she fell upon
her knees and begged that she might
at least know why she was prosecuted,
but there was no answer. The iailors
pushed her into the dungeon, and
closed the great door upon her.
This dungeon, with the others on
the same level, was below the surface
Of the Neva, and it was deathly cold,
and water was always trickling down
the walls. There was a slit in the
outer wall, near the roof, and the cold
wind whistled drearily through this
slit through the long winter days and
nights; and in the summer she could
hear the river eternally laplapping
against the wall of her prison No
sound Of human voice ever reached
her; food was thrown to her, as to a
Gagged hyena, through a wicket in the
door, too high for her to see through.
For twelve years this martyred
maiden lived there in the black dark
ness, cold and filth. For twelve years
she crawled over the Shiny stones like
a reptile, and prayed for death.
But when death came she resented
It, and longed for more life, miserable
as it was. One day the Neva was in
food The waters rose higher than
ever before, and presently they began
to flow through the slit in the wall
The princess saw that she was doomed
unless she could escape from the dun
geon. She tore up huge rocks that
formed the floor of the cell--rocks she
could not have stirred at ordinary
times-and threw them against the
door. A warder came and asked hei
angrily what she meant, and she
pointed to the water flowing il
through the slit. Let me out, or
perish!" she cried.
Nobody leaves a cell without ar
official order" said the warder, ant
the door changed shut.
When the food went down the ema
ciated, almost naked body of the pool
princess was taken from the dungeon
where she had drowned and wal
buried by two soldiers.

sailed away, to anchor, in due season
In Leghorn bay. He had come to the
Mediterranean merely for a frolic, he
said. He wanted to get acquainted
with the folks. and he soon got ac-
quainted. The society girls from Pisa.
Leghorn, Florence and other points
were at the seashore, intent upon hav.
ing good time, and they looked upon
Orloff as a great acquisition, for he
spent his money like an intoxicated
mariner and was the life and soul Of
every social jamboree.
The Princess Helen, twenty years
old, and lovely as a seraph, was there
with the rest Of the girls, and it soon
was evident to everybody that 0rloff
was desperately in love with her. He
followed her everywhere, and made
her magnificent presents. And it soon
was equally evident that Helen was
forgetting the absent Charlie Radzi-
will, and was losing her heart to the
majestic Russian. Charlie was away
somewhere, fixing his political fences,
and in this case absence failed to
make the heart grow fonder.
After a series OF brilliant shore en-
tertainments, Orloff invited the whole
push to a big fete on board his war
ship. It was an evening to be remem-
bered. The almost barbarian magnif-
cence Of Orloff and his ship made a
great impression. AS the guests were
departing Orloff begged the princess
to remain until the others were gone,
as he had a message for her. She
thought she knew what the message
was. 1t would be one of love; and
she seated herself TRANQUILITY to wait.
The last guest was gone, and Orloff
approached her. But there was no
smile Of love on his face or in his
eyes. The brute in his nature was
uppermost Without a word, he seized
her wrist and dragged her roughly to
foul hole in the bottom Of the ship,
and locked a door upon her. And the
ship set out to sea.
Throughout the voyage the once
pampered and beautiful princess was
eyerybody's serf. She was obliged to
do all the dirty work for the cook;
to peel the vegetables and wash
dishes and scrub the floor; and the
cook, who was as great brute as
0rloff, treated her like a dog. If she
begged for mercy, he struck her
across the mouth; and once he
dragged her about the vessel by the
hair, and Orloff looked on and
grinned.
In time the ship reached Cronstadt,
and anchored; and the night after its
arrival boat came alongside, and the
princess was thrown into it. The boat

week, and the hundred which he had
borrowed originally had swollen to
three hundred.
He had not dared let Dolly know,
and though she had looked surprised
at the diminishing returns each pay
day, Imbrie had invented heap Of
excuses. However the crisis was al
most at hand.
Then, a few days before, little,
dark-haired man, who looked like a
cross between a Chinaman and a
Portuguese, had accosted him as they
we're leaving the street car together.
He seemed to know Imbrie very well
and had drawn him aside and made a
proposition which made the pulses
throb in Imbrie's cheeks.

he said. "It is only what everybody

it." faltered fmbrie.

hands. Imbrie's hands, clutching fe
verishly at them, trembled.

continued And If you prove false
which is impossible-we shall know
how to punish you. Also, we shall
know If it is the genuine treaty yol

Before Imbrie had quite understood
the gist OF the proposition the littl
man was gone, leaving him to hi
soliloquies, his bribe and Dolly's anz

brated, eve in country where beau
tiful women were the rule And she
was additionally attractive because Of
her pleasant disposition. She was
kind and generous, beloved by people
of all classes. She was surrounded by
mystery. There could be no question
ing her patrician descent, but her his
tory was entirely unknown. Only a
few people in the world knew that she
was the daughter Of the Empress Eliz-
abeth Of Russia. Catherine, of course,
was one of the few who knew the
truth, and the continued existence of
the Princess Helen was a source of
uneasiness to her. That uneasiness
now became alarm when she learned
Of the projected marriage, for she
knew that Prince Charles was danger

Radziwill, prince palatine Of wilma
hated Russia and the Russians worse
than poison, yet had dreams Of be
coming emperor Of that country. He
had set himself up as a candidate for
the throne of Poland, considering that
but a stepping stone to the place he
really coveted. 1t may easily be seen
how a marriage with the Princess
Helen would have been desirable in
the furthering Of his schemes. He
was a bold and enterprising man, and
Catherine was afraid Of him.
Prince Gregory Orloff responded tc
her summons at once. He was a mar
of majestic appearance, viewing hin
from the front. He had all kinds oi
rich brown whiskers. and naughty
face. He had commanding figure
and immense shoulders. But the bacl
of his head gave him away. 1t was

Gregory was one CT the strongest mel

Imbrie passed his hand over his
damp forehead and stared at the pa
per in his hand. He could not believe
either his eyes or the good fortune
which had placed it there.
A subordinate clerk in the war Of
fee at Washington, Imbrie had faced
life on a salary of $25 weekly. This
was his sole means Of support for
himself and Dolly, his pretty young
wife, as well as Dolly's mother, who
lived with them.
He had been shifted into q new de-
partment recently-that in touch with
the secretary of states office. OF
course Imbrie never saw the great
man himself, or anyone but an occa-
sional permanent under-secretary.
For weeks Imbrie had been prey
to increasing despair There had been
Dolly's long illness, after their little
son had been born and died a few
hours later. Like every man with a
government position, Imbrie had found
it not at all difficult to negotiate a
loan with a money lender at an exor-
bitant interest. He had paid off the
loan by increasing it; then, rendered
desperate, he had gone to another
money lender, and then another. He
had no notion that all three were
