The fact aoon became known, and it fonaej a subject for. general 00mAa it was. the bullet struck throutrh the breast, and lodged in the muscles, just above the berrt. The shock would have killed most men, but the General was young ami strong, and after the bullet was ex tracted, he regained consciousness, and began to rally. xse nasi Vavw xeoDueouoa 01 evecjrthing that, happened, up to the moment the shot was fired, but from that time on, till the bullet was removed from hia breast, all was a blank. Whether prudently or not, he was told that Lola Pulaski waa hisaseailaat. - . It was understood by the General's attendants that the Czar ordered that this be done. The General insisted with all the emphasis he waa capable of, that it waa a man who fired the shot. He did not attempt to explain why he was found in front of Lola's house, and that she was arrested in the act of bending over him within a minute after the ahot was fired. "It is my wish," he said to the physicians, among whom was Dr. Mulek, "that the CounteeB be brought here at "My daughter, Elvira, your betrothed!" exclaimed Count Linwold, who happened to be standing near the wounded man. "No, air," replied the General. "I want to aee the Countess Pulaski." "The Countess Pulaski P" cried Count Linwold, and the physicians looked fn one to toe otner, as it to indicate .their "The Counteas Pulaski!" "Aye, gentlemen," said the young soldier, "that ia as much her title as Gaar fa that of Alexander the Second, our most gracious sovereign. But, as the name seems to shock yoa into doubtine my unity, PU be plainer, if you desire it." "We do desire it;" aaid Count Linwold. "Count LinwcM!" "Yea, General."

"I shall see that Miss Pulaski fa brought here at once," said Count Linwold, leaving the wounded man's room, with wonderful courtesy of manner and malignant bitterness of heart.

He knew the General's feelings for her only too well He was unfortunate in the way he approached Lola in the cell, and as we have seen he stung her into madness. He determined to be more politic when they got into the sleigh, for at once, with well-feigned sorrow, he began to deplore the misfortunes that had come to the poor girl. "I am indifferent to you sympathy or your hate; she said, with spirit. "Bat if you are capable of feeling the pity you proieas, go 10 your master, tike Czar, and tell him that my father, now within the walls of the Neva prison, fa an innocent man. Even jf he were capable of thinking treason, tite age and infirmities brought on by years of cruel tortures in the mines of Siberia would incapacitate him from raising his hand against the Uzar. "Miss Pulaski. I want to help too, ewr IwiU promise to see that you and your father are Treed on one condition," said the Count, with a manner that showed "be did not believe what she had lust said. "What fa the one condition?" she asked. "That yon and your father leave the empire and never return to it. "How long will you give me to think of that condition?

Ignoring Count Iinwold's pittffered arm, Lola widked into the hotel by his side' hor did she seem at all ooniased by the battery of eyes that TfJis turned upon. her.

"I am boitj for this, Lola," he said', "but you did you work well." It is not xay wprk," she replied. "That's right," he said, with a knowing laugh, "stick to that, for I can see if the General recovers he is bound to help you otit. I shall see Madame Bergerand the fair Elizabeth in the morning. Anv message to send?" "Not by you," she replied, "And h$ ve you no word to send to Peter?" . "None, tare that I wish he and all like him were under the ioe of the Neva." "You awi angry " She did not reply, for at that moment Count Linwold appeared at the door and motioned for her to follow him. So far Lola had been wonderfully eool, but now, as she was about to come face to face with General Paul, her steps became unsteady and her lips grew itshen. When she first read of General Paul's engagement to Elvira, the daughter of Count Linwold, Lola felt that she could strike dead at her feet the man who had won her heart and cruelly oast her :isido; but now, in his weakness, all the old love surged into her soul with the force of a returning tide, and for the moment her brain reeled and. the walls bent and floated like flexible things before her distorted vision. She would have fallen had not Count Linwold touched her arm and said, in his oily voice: "Miss Pulaski, here is General Paul" But ano ther voioe thrilled her heart and restored her to reason. "Lola, Ijola, I un here 1" It was the voice of General Paul, TweatetM when last heard it, but sweeter t(Hl0r than all the music of earth. Suporesainff the cry that TfWfe-her lips,she nprang forward, and seizing his extended hand, she exclaimed: "Oh, any that it was not I who did this foul deed!" "I have -said it, Lola," he replied; and in thu presence of these witnesses , and before heaven, I reiterate, you are innocent." Then toruiner his face to Count Lin wold, and ttte attending physicians and nurses, the General continued: "Pleaso to leave me alone with this young lady for a few minuta." The people in the room obeyed him, and Loin drew a chair closer to the bed and let him hold her hand. For ' some seconds neither could speak; the gallant soldier was more unnerved than ever he had been on the battle-field. He bef ;an in a low voice by telling her, not 01 hia wound or nis faith in her innocence, or even by asking her how she isame to be found so close to him whe:a the officers discovered him, but of his connection with the Countess Elvira Linwold. He declared that the published announcement of his betrothal to that lady was as great a surprise to himself as it seemed to be to the world. "I do not. could not love her, Lola,' he said, with suppressed passion, "after I had given my heart to you." "Love and marriase do not neceaaar fly go together among the nobles of Bussia," she replied. "But ifchey shall go together in my case, for I am determined to wed you at once. Do not stop me, Lola," said the General, restraining her. "The doctors say it is very doubtful if I recover "Oh, I pray heaven they may be mistaken 1" she cried, and then added, with t nf bur old a.lmnena. "Rut in subject of marriage," "But I must speak -oi-what is ui most in my mind, nnouid I want you to reap all the security the widow of the Prince of Moskeva should have under the empire.

Peter the student ad Colonel Orloff, the lover of Elvira Lin wold, met at the Cafe d'Amerique the mornintr after Lola Pulaski's visit to General Paol. The three men were in a private room and they talked over the subject that was exciting all St. Petersburg that morning. By lover exclaimed the Doctor, "General Paul shows more force near the jaws of death than he did when he was a well man. "How so?" asked Peter, while the Colonel knitted his bushy brows and pulled witn more vigor on nis cigar. "Why, the Czar sent to know if there was anything he could do for him, and he sent back word that he wanted Lola Pulaski and her father released until an examination cnnld be held," "And did the Czar comply?" askei Colonel Orloff. "By the.masarlie did ; and this mom .iij General Pulaski was roleased." "Where are they now?" queried Peter. "I do not know, but I should not be surprised if a search discovered them at their old quarters." "See here. Dr. Mulek," said Colonel Orloff, speaking like a man who is giving utterance to something that he has been deliberating over for some time. "you are one of the physicians attend ing on uenerai jfaui? "I am ; I have to take two hours with him every night," replied the Doctor. "I need not tell you that certain people do not pray for the General's recovery." "I am well aware of that." " "You administer medicine to the General?" "I do." "And wliilo in attendance, you hold his life in your hands?" "Yes, Colonel." "Then if this man lives you will be false to your oath," said Colonel Orloff, striking the table. Doctor Mulek gasped and looked from one to the other of hia companions, as if he did not comprehend the full import of the words he had just heard. At length he managed to say: "I IfuUy comprehend you, and I thank you for the suggestion." "But will you act on it?" asked the Colonel, reaching out his hand, "I will," replied the Doctor, with emphasis. After this they spoke in low tones about Ivan Berber, uud the Colonel but little knew that his wish was already complied with when he said: "I would srive my left hand if that fellow were dead or in priaon,"

Then follt Wed a discussion of thai plans for thu a&iassination of the Czqr Which Colo iel Orloff had perfected, but Which hi 1 seemud reluctant to take direct part In;

Colonel 1 won hated tha Czar, not because he ,'iated tyranny, for at heart he was himself a tyrant, but because the Emperor had decided that certainestates tha t, were in litigation belouged to Oount Orloff, the Colonel's cousin. , , . But the j plotters well, knew that there were iioores of desperate men in St. Petersburg ready to kill the Czar; if cooler men only provided them with the certain' means, and showed them, the opportunity. ... Dr. Mulsk and Peter left Colonel Orloff in iiho Cafe d'Amerique, and walked together to Madame Berger's. Peter had not yet given up ue hope of securing the hand, if not the love, of Lola Pubu ci; but if he failed he was prepared to crush her through his associates', tha Nihilists, in the event of her escaping from the meshes Count Linwold wits carefully weaving about hek . . It was the belief of these men that Ivan Berger had fled from St Petersburg after the last meeting of the Nihilists, but they were certain that, even if he were in the city, he would not or could hot interfere with their schemes. Leeza, the patient attendant at the house, was surprised when they asked for Lola and her father. She had not heard of their release. She believed they were still in the Neva prison, and she wept at the thought. "Yes," she said, ia reply to Dr. Mulek's question, "Madam Bergerand Miss Elizabeth . are home they are always home. But, heaven help them, the foot that Mr. Ivan is a fugitive is crushing, them into the grave." "I will see them, and I think I can cheer them up," said the Doctor. As neither Lola nor her father waa in the house. Peter declined to go up, so his companion went alone. VI late Dr. JttuieK nad not attempted to conceal hia love for the fair Elisabeth. He made it a point to talk of his lonely life and tell of his own ability to care xor a wue every miw w bw her. He found Madam Berber and Eliza beth with red eyes, that spoke of recents tears, and pale faces that told of a deeper anguish, still bending over their sewing. They met the Doctor with what to him seemed warmth, ao eager were they to learn if he knew anything 01 Ivan. Of course the Doctor had not h?ard of Ivan, and he knew absolutely nothing of the young man's present whereybouts, out he did not wisn to snow nis ignorance ft them. With a mysterfdlS manner he told them that Ivan was in wsnre hiding in the city, and that his taahafc-'nmld soon send him to a place of safety, but before doing so the mother and daughter would have a chance to see hiro. This vague information had an exhilarating effect on the madam and Elizabeth, for they could imagine no reason for the man's lying. Having placed them in better spirits, the Doctor, with consummate skill, presented his own suit. Elizabeth nervously parried him, till at length he dropped all diplomacy and asked her boldly to become his wife. "I cannot, I cannot I" she replied. . "Butwhynot?" "It is impossible!" "Why should a thing so natural as marriage be impossible?" asked Dr. Mulek, trying to take her hand. Elizabeth drew back, but did not answer. ' From behind a curtain a man's voice thundered out: "Because, you dog, that lady is my betrothed!" With the words the man leaped out, and Dr. Mulek was felled to the floor. He looked up and saw the heroio form of Count Orloff towering above him. to aa CONTINUED. Motes in Sunbeams. Counting the dancing motes in a bar of sunlight sounds like one of those hopeless, never-ending tasks with which malignant fairies delight to break the spirit of little heroines in the German folk -stories. Something more thin this, however, has been achieved by modern science, wnion is now aoie to aannt the particles floating in any given portion of the atmosphere and determine wliat-fwiporonofj these are dangerous germs and wnavTtre-Tnore dust. Ir. Franklin's curious experiments have shown us how to count the micro-organisms, and now John Aitken, of Falkirk, by a totally different method, has been able to take stoik of the more harmless but hardly less interesting dnst motes. Thirty thousand such partioles have been detected by him in the thousandth of a cubio inch of idie air of a room. In the outside atmosphere in dry weather the same measurement of air jieldod 2.1 19, whereas, after a heavy rainfall, the number was only 521. That this power of prying into atmospheric secrete will eventually yield very important results must be obvious to all. Among the most curious discoveries already made is the direct relation between dust particles and fogs, mist and rain.

Names Changing. Thera has been for many years past a dimii ution of English names on the court records of this city, and at present a p irely Anglo-Saxon name is seldom mat with. This is illustrated in the merriage license department very plainly, about one-fourth of the names appearing upon the marriage lists being English, the remainder being German, Bohemian, Poles, Scandinavian and other nationalities, principally the nationalities of central Europe. There has also been a very perceptible falling off in French names in this part of the country during recent years, wmcn indicates tnat tue r renon names, like the English, are becoming less and less as the years go by.

The Mind-Curers, The mind-cu.ers are making their appearance in New York 'society," where imaginary ailments of all kinds are to be found, especially among the young ladies. - Some of these victims give accounts of the changes that are wrought in their woful condition by the miiidoure. The practitioners tell' them that their illness is imaginary, which is often trua, and that it is a mental state, not a a physical fact. "You must not think of it; you must drive away the sense of it; you must believe yourself well." This prescription is repeated again and again, with emphasis, and it is said to be sometimes effective in these imaginary cases, especially when accompanied by the advice to avoid excitement, late hours, heavy suppers, wine-bibbing, and other health-destroying practices, to which the regular physicians are apt to fail to give due heed in their medical practice. When the subject was recently up for debate at a meeting of the Twilight Club, three doctors gave their experience with it. Dr. Coan told what he had seen of the operation of "magic prayers" in the Sandwich Islands; Dr. CofLn held that, though (he mind-cure was often charlatanry, it worked successfully in certain cases; but Or. Allen argued that it might do great injury to the persona brought under its influence, The various schools of "inind-ourers," "faith-curers," and "Christian scientists" do all they can in the way of discrediting the claims and cures of each other.--New Tork paper She Kissed Something. "k'toud'Jyn eojiwwhiln exatnininir some papers, unearthed a recBiju'rJk valuables that were found on the person of a man who dropped dead near the bridge. Among the things acknowledged by it were almost one thousand dollars in currency, several large books, some jewelry, and papers. The widow of the man was known, and the officer, to save her the trouble of going to his office, sent the effects to her residence. There were a score of articles in all, and they made a pretty bulky bundle. When the messenger delivered them to tho widow she carefully went over each. Upon concluding her ' examination, instead of thanking the messenger, she startled him by saying; "There was a pair. of scissors. Where are they?" A Lesson in Political. "Young man," said a tired looking man with a furry silk hat on, "don't do that, let me beg of you." The person addressed was a gaudily attired youth, evidently overburdened with wealth, but not with brains, who was about to light a cigar with a dollar bill. "If yon hod ever studied political economy you wouldn't think of doing such a thing." "What's p'litical economy got to do with it?" "Don't you realize that the Governnent can never redeem that dollar note? And just think of the awful aurplus that is piled up now in the treasury." An Improved Propeller. A French engineer, M. Gouilly, claims to have made a very important discovery in the propulsion of steam-vessels, by whioh the speed may be greatly increased. His improvement consists in causing the screw to revolve in a cylinder terminating in a truncated cone opening toward the vessel. The effect is affirmed to be a doubling of the force of propulsion at the dead-point, increasing the speed of a small boat one-third, as shown by over a thousand experiments with more than thirty different screws, .

CHENEY CO., Toledo, O. aW-Bold by Druggists, 7Se. A story is told of a Mr. ' Norton, which records one of the youthful Disraeli's caustic strokes. Disraeli was dining at Norton's house. The host praised a particular wine on the table, to which Disraeli agreed. "Well," said Norton, "I have wine twenty times as good in myNjellar." "No doubt," said Dissay, looking round the tablrj; "but, my dear fellow, this' is quite good enough for such canaille as you have got to-day." Everybody saw the point of this but Mr. Norton. That Tired Feeling Is experienced br almost everyone at this season, and many people resort to Hood's Sansparillsto drive away tbo languor and exhaustion. The blood, laden with impurities which have been accumulating tor months, moves slunishlr through the veins, the mind fails to think quickly, and the body 1b sUll slower to respond. Hood's Saisanarilla is just what is needed. It purifies, vitallcee. and enriches the blood, makes the head clear, creates sn appetite, overcomes tint Urcd feeling, tones the nervous system, and Imparts new strength and vigor to the whole body. -My appetite was poor, I could not sleep, had hosdaebo a groat deal, pains in my back, my bowels did not move regularly. Hood's SarsapariUa In a short time did me so much good that I feel like a new wan. Uy pains and aches an relieved, my appetite improved." Okoboe F. Jaoasox, ttoxbury Station, Conn.

Heat Holidays. The so-called Hitzferiea (heat holidays), which are now established by law in Germany and Swiiiserlind, deserve imitation everywhere. When the thermometer reaches a certain point lessons must cease. Throughout Prussia the observance of this regulation is compulsory in all private a-'i well as pub lie schools. Indeed, tho jrivate school in Prussia is fast becoming publio, since no director or proprietor of a private school is allowed to employ as teacher, either male or female, any iinceitificated person, while even the bcoks used in private sohools ore bound to ha legitimate school editions. During the coming term, for instance, at a private school the mistress has reoeived a notification that she must use a Sohulansgabe of Shillor, iu ordor that the pupils may employ the new spelling which the minister of education now demands. The Basle Government has just issued a new regulation for the Hitiierien in the Basle schools. When the temperature rises to 20 degrnes (Beaamer) iu the shade at 10 o'clock iu the morning, holiday is to be proclaimed to the scholars until the afternoon.
