They were ehaUenged by another guard in much the - same way, after leaving the dressing-room, and then were admitted mto ,n hall, in which were seated . several score of somber figures aboat long, tables, while a man, evidently the presidiBg -officer of the meeting, occupied a higher chair at the fiviher end of. the room. As Lola and her companions entered, each drew front a bag suspended near the door, a pieoe of square pasteboard, containing a number.

When all were seated, the presiding officer rose and said : "For the' reformation of those who have just come in, I will say that a vital matter is before ns, and we-shall be glad to hear the voices of all."

"If .he is permitted to live, then the sons of freedom must perish or disband, said the man. . .. "It is ere life or thousands." said Peter, the otndeart,, whose voice Lola e care not for live : we are work ing for Lbsrty, and this man comes in our way. We have junt voted that he must die."

"It matters not who draws; if there is no objection nnmber twenty-seven will advance," said the chief. ' Nnmber twtinty-seven , was Ivan Holding up hia own num ber, he ap proached the man with the bag. The opening was juat large enough for the young man's hand and arm. A painful silence followed. The hand was inserted, and the face of twenty-seven was averted. t A few seconds ttaat seemed like min utes in length, and then the young man drew out a number, and held it up to the tight of all. it was a Dtooa-rea ogore tnree.

Bhe did sat appear to heed tins, for the attention of all was palled at that moment to the man at the. head of the table.

"I have no more to say to-night," he continued, "except that it is right that we who have so often met for work, should on this occasion give some time to pleasure. Without more formality, I cieclare the council adjourned." The instant tne chief -ceased speaking he blended in with the people on the floor. While they were in a confused throng, and as if by magic, the disKuises'were laid aside and some of the men gathered them up and carried .them to the room from which they had been taken. The lights, -which had been burning low. now shot up .to their full brilliancv and the hall was filfed-with men of 'every rank above the common laborer, or mujik, and by many beautiful women, whose pioturesoudresse8 sur passed in effect the dazzling costumes ox tne JSmperor s bau. Mystery and magio seemed to rival in the strange place. The bare tables, about which the conspirators, masked and somber, had just been sitting, were suddenly covered with snowv cloths, on which were placed guttering silver and sparkling goblets. Waiters from : their Own number brought in the moat delicious wines snd the richest viands, and soon a rare feast, seasoned by wit and enlivened with laughter, was in full blast' It must not be thought that the meetings of the nihilists usually ended in tnls way. This was a special occasion, a celebration of the new year, which the bells in a hundred Bteeplos were announcing, and toward the production .of wnicn eacn nad contributed accorains to his or her means. The meal over, a band appeared at one end -of the hall, in the same magical way, and the tables vanished in sections) in short order. Clearly, these people, who had devoted their best energies to the overthrow of the Bussian Empire, were not a lot of brooding fanatics, but understood the pleasures of life and were resolved to enjoy them in season. Lola Pulaski, as soon as the music struck up, became the center of attraction, though she positively refused to dance, to the annoyance of Peter the student, and the disappointment of ivan terger. wnose nandaome taee became shadoVed at once. She was known to all, for did they not delight to call her their queen but not a word of the recent meeting was spoken by her many admirers, nor was a hint dropped of the terrible mission to which she was assigned. No one envied her the awful undertaking and it was generally believed that no one could so well carry it out. After watching the dancers for some time and receiving the homage of her friegabi who called themselves "The Son- d Daughters of Liberty," Lola V n Berger to one side and whispered: "I want to leave without attracting attention." ' "You wish to go home?" "Yes, and at once, Ivan." "Then," replied the gallant youth, "I shall be happy to be your servant and escort." They left the hall without being noticed, and were again out under the stars on the frozen street. They hurried brick over tiie same route by which thy had come and they found the streets deserted, excepting a shivering policeman here and there as they crossed the wider avenues that beset their course. They hardly exchanged a word till they were inside the street door of the strange old house, in which they had their respective ho:mes, then Ivan said: "Wait, Lois, let me speak with you before you go to your room. It will not do to let our relatives know what you are selected for." "Go on, Ivan," she said, quietly. "I am listening." . "Lola, I shuddered when that figure Three appeared." "For me, or for General Paul?" she asked. ' "For you, Lola; curse him, and curse his calling, and curse his race!" said the young man, peesionately. "You must not fear for me." "But I do fear for you. Do you not know that, while n hundred of our oppressors have been slain within the last few years, the avenger has always been detested?" "I am aware of that," she said, quietly. "Then you cannot expect to escape." . "I give no thought to myself." "But I do-; your life is to me more than tho cause which we have both so much to heart. I am but a poor beggar student, and am, therefore, in no t a m . " condition to say what I feel; but. Lola Go on, Ivan." "You must not do this thing." "Would you have me break my oath ?" "No, Lola.' but you mustnot endanger yourlife." "Endaugermy life?" she said slowly, "Do you not know that if I failed to do this work, I would at once become the victim of the Nihilists' daggers?" "I am aware of that, Lola." "Then why try to stop me, if I am fated?" "It is that I may take your place. Leave the work to me. What matters it if one so useless to hims?Lf and oth ers perish? If I must diepet tbe in saving from ruin one who is so dear to my heart." r The last words sounded like a cry. and Ivan Berger half raised his hands as if he would embrace her, then lacking the courage, he let them fall heavily by his side. "Ivan, you are a brave, true friend," said Lola, impressively, and at the same time laying her hand on his arm, "I appreciate the sacrifice you propose, but it must not be." "I will anticipate you in the deed," said, desperately. ' heNo, no, you must not disobey me. Come, it is cold here. We can talk of this again." "When?" "Some time before the next meet ing." "But by that time it must be done." Will you let me be the judge? Ho rfar I have msde no mistake," she said, leading him to the gloomy stone stairs, down which a dim light came. "I have grown so accustomed to obeying yon," said Ivan, as he followed her, "that I caunot break myself of the habit at once." In the upper hall they parted, Lola rii to hot own qnartra a 'ng tu am.
He was surprised at finding his mother and his sister not.only up but entertaining a visitor. Tliis visitor had laid aside his fur cloak and appeared in the brilliant uniform of a Major of the Imperial Guards: He was young, with fine dark features and a figure that was well-proportioned rather than stately. Ivan knew the man, for, concealing his surprise, he addressed him as "Count Orloff." "This is rather an unseasonable hour for visiting, friend Berger," said, the young soldier, by way of explaining his presence, "but I had news of importance to communicate, and believing that Madam Berger and Miss Elizabeth would remain up to see the old year out I came round to deliver it." Seeinir that her mother made no com
ment; Elisabeth, with an unmistakable fiance of admiration at the young solier, hastened to say: . ."And deeply grateful we are, Count Orloff, not only for this but for all your efforts to assist us." Count Orloff bowed, and then went on to say that he had a favorable opportunity of talking with the Czar at the ball that evening, and that he bad presented the case of Madam Berger's family, with a good chance of success. The case was simply this: When Madam Berger's husband died in Asia a large sum of money was due him by the Government, not only for his services but also for funds which he had used of his own to carry on the campaign against the Turcomans to a successful issue. This money not only had not been paid but was positively refused to Madam Berger,ao that instead of being in comparative affluence she was reduced to nearly beggarly, Count Orloff s father had been a comrade of .Colonel Berger, and in this way the youn gtfoWtef Tjecame acquainted with thefamily.! - From the first he was in love with the fair Elizabeth, and, being a man of large means, he would have assisted the unfortunate family if he could have done so without hurting their feelings; for the noble poor are unfortunately sensitive and proud. "1 must add my thanks to those of my mother and sister," said Ivan, with perfect courtesy, yet with a perceptible coldness, "but I cannot hope that your efforts in our behalf will avail." "Bat I can assure you the Emperor ptomised to look into the case," said the Count, earnestly. "He would have less time for balls and fetes," said Ivan with some bitterness, "if hp looked into one thousandth part of the cases that require his attention." "That may be," said the young officer, stroking his mustache and rising, "yet the Czar takes no pleasure iu balls or fetes." , Count Orloff bowed to Madain Berger and Ivan, but Elizabeth, her rawing still in her left hand, followed jhim to the hall and said: "Yon must pardon my brother; he is maddened that he cannot help us." "On my honor, fair Elizabeth," said the Count taking her hand and pressing it to his lips, "I admire Ivan's frankness, nor do I blame him for being soured. Would thai he might let me show that I am his friend, and that you would permit me to be more." Count Orloff bowed, and Leeza ap peared in the hall with a lamp to light him down to the street. TO BE COKTIHPBnJ Didn't Understand. Colonel Jerry Spillers, of Kentucky, went to see Coquelin at. MoVioker's Theater. The Colonel had never heard of the great French comedian, and expected to see a performance something after the style of the minstrel shows which visit country towns. The Kentuckira secured a seat near the stage, and, shortly after the performance began, began, in an annoyed way, to scratch his head. "Licker in this blamed town is no good," he muttered. "Blamed ef it don't take a man's understandin' away from him. My fri -nd" (addressing a man who sat next to him), "what is that fellow savin'?." "I don't know." "Then it has the same effeot on you, I reckon." "What has?" "The whisky in this town." 4 "I don t drink." "Huh, I don't understand this business. Bay, what's the matter with that feller? Talks worse than anybody I ever seed. Why don't they make him get down often the platform? Why, dang him, he can't talk a tall." "He's talking all riglh. He's French, you know." "What! then he ain't our kind uv folks a tall?" "No." "You say you can't understand him?" "Not a word 1" "Did you kiow befo'you come in that you couldn't?" "Yes." The ' Kentuecinn handed the man a buck horn-linnd le knife. "What's this for?" "It's yourn," "No, it isn't.'' "Yes, it is," said the Kentuekian. "The fellers ou t in Allen County gave me that knife . ust befo' I left an' told me that it was mine till I met a biggjr fool than I am. It's yourn." Arkansaw Traveler. Willie's First Letter.

To our chagrin we found he bad gone westward to the I'aeiflo coast, and we followed in hot pursuit, first through Alberta-ra-Canada, then through British Columbia, Canada, Washington Territory, Vancouver, Victor, Seattle, Tacouia, Portland. Ean Franciooo, and thence down tm a (mall town in Southern California. There we found the young man, bnt it f ain't Tascott. The man' writing, hie lrxyateyfoua movements, and in fact bia every action ett-angely indicated that he was none other than Tascott. When we found him there wasn't each a striking resemblance after all His helaht. wehdit. color of hair and nvas.

While we were on this man b track we would have followed him to the end of the earth, and hod he chartered a steamer and gone to China I would have chartered the nearest steamer at hand and followed him. We traveled over 8,000 miles and spent thousands ot dollars. I shall follow the young man as long as I live and just as long as I have a dollar to spend;" lUSVrEW Of TRADE.
