He yn a stolid, coarse-looking fellow, -whom Iran had sever seen before, so he did not dsre to accost him. Ta odd and anxiety, hunger was adder as the day -wore on, and the gloom of another long -winter night came to th prison corridors. It may not lie amiss here to explain the oonanot ol liance and the tuni.Haax. ra past bobs were an .stronK as his great fram). Separated irom the -world, he was fierce in bis viadictirehate of ita rulers, and ho aonglit every opportunity to drown hia memory in drink. He had beon drinlting when Ivan met him, and with such men t Te only safety is in Iceeping 'way front the cm nod gap. One drink means other drinks, fill the frenzied intoxication seizes on the brain, and destroys all prudence and inwediateroBnaihility. Alter leaving Ivan in the cell with IjoU Pnlaski Lanoe and Manx went to tho drinking place near the prison, intending to nemain bat a short time, for it was against, the rules for them to leave at all withont permission. Bnt they sat down with a bottle, lika forbidden fruit, between them, and under such curenmstanoes iruch men soon forget time and all the duties they owe to their fellows. Indeed, Lance and Manx forgot the duty they owed to themselves, and drank till they forgot they were not freemen: In vain did the pzoprietor of the place urge them to get back to the prison white H was yet dark, and. they coald return by the soerut passage. The men went on drinking and enrsing the Czar till daylight came, and they fell to the floor, m the heavy sleep of mtosieatien. Long before daylight b-ta men - ahonld hare loft their beds in the cellar, under thtj prima reception-room, and reported :Eor dnty. In this, as well as in erery other tmBeh of the Czar's service, the rules are rofleriMfl, and their enforcement is rigid as death. The ahsena i of liance and Mam was.

Being to ordered, two of the prison flfcials started to seek Lance and Manx, bntthj soon returned with the startling report that 'Hne lazy dogs" conld sot be fcmnd.

When Ivan changed clothes with Manx he took care to retain the pistol which he always carried. Thane now grasped with his ri jht hand, and the moment the man wis fully inside the cell, he seized him by the throat wjtih the left and threw turn on the cot. "One word! Whisper an alarm. hissed Ivan, as with the strength of a giant he held ' the astonished turnkoy rtown, "and yen are a dead man ! . The lantern fell on the bed, but did not exfcmtruishi By its light the turnkey recogniid the face and dress of the man bending over him, and he very naturally took him to be his old associate Manx, for whom he entertained no love. "Manx! Manx! I'll do as yon say !" the man managed to gasp. Ivan released his bold somewhat, and said, for he did not want the per son he represented to suffer for this conduct: "I am not Manx." -"Not Maui?" . "No." "Then, in the name of saints, who are votTr "That matters sot to yon. I gotin here bv a mistake "A mistake r ecboetl the man, wnose eves threatened to pod oat of his head. Hist!

Still covering the man with his pistol, Ivan stepped back, and, taking the lamp from the-bed, set it on the floor, and lowered it " "Now," he said, "let me have your key." . Seeing there was nothing else to do, the man unbuckled, the heavy belt and handed it to Ivan. - Now take off yoiir coat and hat Don't growl;. I will give yon those L have on, which are quite as good." The turnkey srroaned, but there was nothing for it bat to comply with this request. With his back to the door, Ivan quickly made the change, and the trembling man asked: . "That is all I want you to give me, bnt I am not through with you." Fray do not harm me. "I shall not, if yon still obey; but. mark you, I am fighting for my own life,and it is more precious than yours. flow he out at full length on the bed," said Ivan, with unmistakable resolution in bis low tones. What are von oinar to do with me?" asked the turnkey, as he obeyed this command. "I am going to tie and gag you!" "Oh.LordP' "Hot a word!" With surprising quickness, Ivan cut the blanket into strips, which he twisted, and then proceeded to tie the man's hands and feet. This done, he gagged him with the heavy woolen muffler which he had been wearing about his own neck. "Sow," he said, as he took up the lantern, "I shall assume your character till I get out of the prison, then I will worn to tne uoveroor, explain your situation, and you will be reteaseo. The man groaned out and hhook his head, but of course could say nothing. Ivan ran his arm through the ring that supported the lantern, and going ont he dosed, but did not look, the cell door beliind him. - So far he had succeeded beyond his expectations, bnt he was not yet out of the prison. - He felt that he could go back the route by which liance had led him in. but the spirit of audacity was stirred up in him, and formed the resolution of gomg out the regular wny. He knew nothing about the whereabouts of the cells, nor of the arrangement of the prison, bnt he did know that . thffninikey had to report otoot- h.if.o.,CT ..j t.1 that thj. I .WSS timed by a bell that tolled ly through the corridors. He was prepared to answer the bell, when the door leading to the reception-room was swung open and an official called out : "Turnkey, turnkeythis way for prisoners." Ivan hastened out, and to bis amaze ment he saw Lance and Laux standing before the desk. , CHAPTER XX. THB aupacm or desfet-jitioh. When Ivan saw Lance and Manx, he took in the situation with a rapidilv that surprised himself. Indeed, at the moment he could not help being amazed at his phenomenal coolness. After leaving the cell, he planned to reach the reception-room the first chance, and then to make a break through the front door, and depend upon his speed as runner, and his knowledge of the city, for escape. But at sight of the men who had befriended him, his purpose changed, and, with the quickness of lightning, he hit upon another plan. - Another recorder sat behind the ponderous book, in Lance's old place. He had just got through writing down a description of the prisoners, both of whom had been captured in the place where they got drunk, and, turning to Ivan, he said: "Take Manx to cell seven, turnkey." "Yes, sir," replied Ivan, alntimz. and imitating the gruff .tones of tlie man whoa!scir Ee was for the i firat-lnmo assuming. AUU WM, UUiiUl iiv ecu biuw. Yes. sir.' Ivan opened the great oaken door, with its maty knobs, and the prisoners, looking gloomy and desperate, followed him into the corridor. "Well, Lot," said Manx, after they had gone half the length of the corridor, and were out of hearing of the people in the reception-room, even if the ponderous doors were opened; "you've got your wish at length, and are going to lock me up." M I 5 t ' J TP "Ana see nere, joineu w uance; "are you quite sure. Lot, that there ain't another prisoner in cell throe?" "I know there's a prisoner there." growled Ivan, as he drew them into a dusky angle in tlie corridor. "And do you know who the prisonersby the mass, there should be two of them ! exclaimed' Lance, as it suddenly dawned on his mind that Lola Pulaski, as well as Ivan, should be in cell three. "Lola Pulaski is gone," said Ivan. "And who is in there ?" ' "Lot ia the sole occupant of that pleasant place at this moment," As Ivan spoke he raised the lamp to his own face, lifted his hat and wig, and the two men had to press their hands to their months to keep from shouting when they recognised mm. "Ivan Bergerl" gasped Lanee, "Yes, Ivan Berger I Ask no explanations now. We have one-half hour in which to save ourselves ( How can it be done?" asked Ivan, in a hurried but intense whisper, "By all the saints in the Greek Calendar!" said Lance; "you should be a Uenenur

set but of this. Mv f, depend on It. Why, know where cell seven hot even liance imote his forehead. The situation and its necessities sud denly daJrned upon him. "Quick ! follow me 1" he whispered. Ivan and Manx followed him to the rear of the prison, where he lifted a flag in the floor. It was to his giant surengin a mere cnua-weignc. Theliflht of the lamp, which Ivan carried,' :(ell upon a narrow stairs, to which Lanoe pointed. The three descended, Lanoe coming last, and letting the nagstone fall into place from his upturned hands. "Let me have the lantern 'for a few seconds," said Lance, "while I get some other clothes to disguise us." Ivan v.rould have protested against this arrangement, bnt before he eoold do so Lance seized the lantern and was gone. A mistep, ' down in the gloomy aeptns, wouia be awiui. The second-t were line minutes. though not many of them elapsed be fore Laute was back again with three fur ooata. or, rather, coats of sheep skins, wsth the hair on, and oaps to match, such as are worn by the teamsters and lower orders of the city in the wuiiflr aewioua "There are enough for three," he said, as he threw the things on the ground and began selecting the largest ; "let us enoh put on a coat and cap." This teak but a few seconds, and with the a rest collars turned up to their ears, ana tne oaggy iur oaps arawn over their eyes, the three men were so completely disguised that their dearest friends would not have known them. "Now let me play guide, " said Lance. "After wi are outside the walls I will turn over the command to you, Comrade Ivan." With tliia he strode ahead, the others following at nearly a run. Along ilark, intricate passages went Lance, without a second s pause. At length he rose to the surface, and by means of a key whioh he had secreted On his nerson. he bcened the little door in the great wall through which he led Ivan when they entered the prison, and acnun the three men stood freo in the Mask shadows. The door in the wall being closed be hind theti, Lanoe turned, and, laying his hand on Ivan's shoulder, said : .Now, oomrade, you must take com mand." "Do you know of no place where you could be safe till you can get a chance to net oun of the country?" asked Ivan, "I do not I know the little brandy shop aortas the street, and the place where our people meet in the city " "Xou mean tne JNi fiiiists r' "Yes. comrade. But beyond the places named I know of none. The world, winch I hate, has forgotten me. "Have you or Manx any money?" asked Ivan, adding, with a sigh, "at present I am bankrupt" "Aye, oomrade." replied Lance. "I have a thousand rubles sewed in the lining of my coat, which those fellows at the office did not take from me." "Good. I do not want the money for myself, but that yon and Manx may be able to compensate the poor man -the brother, who will take charge of you. Now, follow me, or rather let us keep on side by side. I wish we had three whips, that we might better carry out our characters." With a slouching gait that the others did not have to make much of an effort to imitate to perfection, Ivan walked on between the two men. They crossed some of the wider streets, passing bodies of soldiers, and making ao effort to avoid the police men, who were never out of sight Ivan's -objective point- was the house of one George Nevski, a theatrical costumex. This George Nevski was an old man. a bachelor, and a confirmed Nihilist He wa well known in the city for his eccentricities, but it was not so well known that these eccentricities were assumed to hide bis schemes against lihe Csar, whom he bitterly hated. Oeorgo Nevski's house was a low. old-fashioned structure, the first floor of which was several steps lower than tne street The old man was in the act of put ting up the abutters in his little shop windows for the nigh windows for the night when the three

Quick : go into the house, said the old man, "and I will follow when I have finished my work." They entered the shop, and in a few min ites George Nevski came in and carefully locked the door behind him. Ivan had learned the art of disguise from thiii shrewd old man, and now he i made himself known, and explained why thai' had come. i The old man was' startled at Ivan's audacity, and alarmed at the danger that was thus thrust on himself; yet he said, firmly: I. do not forget my oath, and to the beef of my ability I will aid you all" He led them up a narrow stairs, and into a little back room, where his supper was cooking on a kitchen stove. He made more coffee, and Ivan, who had not eaten for forty-eight hours, fairly dovoured the food set before him. After the simple meal was over and it may be well to state that while eating Ueorge Nevski told about the release of Lola and her father, and that they were then at General Paul's hotel, ho said: - "Stay you three here, while I go out and spy the land." lie gttve them three papers and a box of tobacco, and went out, followed by a woolly little dog. Ueorge JNevski Had been gone about an hour, it seemed like a day to the waiting men, when he came back to report that the city was m a great state of excitement "You are missed from the prison," he said, "and the police are searching the city. As I entered the house I met a group of officers near the door, and I feared they were coming in, for they questioned me closely about three men who were seen to pass up this street" "Takd care of Lance and Manx," said Ivan, ruing. "Bnt where are you going?" asked the old man. "Out I shall appear on the streets as a onci-armed soldier. You must loan me an old military dress." "But where do you want to go?" "To General Paul's hotel," said Ivan. The eld man gasped ou hearing this, and repeated: "General Paul's hotel!" "Yes: you say Lola Pulaski is there, and if to I must see her." "If you are bound to go out," said Lance, who for some minutes had been opening the lining of his inner coat, and tailing, therefrom a lot of paper money, "it will be better for you to have some cash. Here are a hundred rubles. What, comrade 1 will you insult mt by refusing?" Ivan thankfully took the money, and, bidding Lanoe and Manx goodnight, and warning them not to venture oat till he saw them again, he went down to the shop. Here he was provided with a soldier's tattered uniform, whinh he donned with the ease of a man accustomed all his life to such attire. He "made up" his face with the skill of a professional aotor.

He had only one arm oxposed, the other being concealed on his breast George Nevski let him out by a back door that opened on a lane, after begging him to be very, very careful Becent success made Ivan Berger bold to the verge of recklessness, for he walked straight to General Paul's, and he stood and read, on a post bsfore the door, the reward oared for his own capture. CHAPTER XXL liOUL IS AUkBMED.In Bussita, as in all civilized countries, crippled soldiers are a privileged claw. They are free to enter even the palace of the Czar unchallenged, and whenever they pass a sentry, the sentry comes to n "salute," an honor paid only to superiors. Ivan knew this when he assumed his disguise. With the audacity that characterized all his recent actions, he mi about to enter the hotel whioh, it must be remembered, was not a publio house when Count Lin wold came out to his waiting sloigh. The Count held a letter in his hand, and looked about him as if to find a messenger. - Ivan sprang forward at once, aud touching his hat, he asked: "Excdlenoy, can I be of service?" "Ah, yes, my man," said the Count, eying him over. "Do you know me?" "You are Count Liuwold," replied

Ivan. "Bight. Do you know where I live?" "As well as I know my own cot, ex cellency," andlvan. told him the place. "Take tnis letter to my aaugnter, and when you bring the answer back to this place, to which I will return in an hour from the Winter Palace, I will reward you." "My reward ia sufficient if I can be of service to your excellency," said Ivan, taking the letter and darting away. Ah," muttered the Count, as ho got into his sleigh, "there are true hearts still in the empire. That brave follow gave an arm to his country, aud now he gives her his heart" As Ivan was ascending tne steps ol Count Linwold's palace he heard a footfall behind him, and turning he saw Colonel Orloff. "What do vou want here, my man?" asked Colonel Orloff, as. he returned Iran's salute. "I want to see the Countess Elvira; I have a letter for her from her father," replied Ivan. Colonel Uriott led nun into tne warm hall and gave him a chair, saying : I will take the letter to the Count ess." The Countess was expecting her, lover, for she stood in the door of her, own little parlor and met him - with an, ardor scarcely to be expected in one or. her icy cast of character. i xne letter stated tnac u-enerai iraui m not only out of danger but well enough to walk about his quarters. further, that the uenerai reins sa to; marry Elvira, arguing as his strong reasons that neither the lady nor him-, self were parties to the contract, and that she had no desire for such m union. The letter urged Elvira to writs at' once, saying that she had always known of the early contract, and that she stood ready to fulfill it "This letter of yours," the Count wrote in conclusion, "I will show to the Czar, who already suspects General Paul's loyalty. The young mn is insane, for he is treating old Pulaski and his daughter as if they were his guests. The game is in our hands, Elvira, if we play it well. Answer at onre, and destroy this." Elvira showod the letter to her lover, and at once wrote a reply in accordance with her father's wishes. Count Orloff took the letter ont to Ivan, who was sitting, hat in ban', in the hall, and said: "Here is a ruble for yon, my friend; and take this letter hack to Count Linwold." "Thanks, excellency," said Ivan, turning to the door, "And I say, my man, if you are not otherwise employed, and you call tomorrow at thiB address, I think I can find you something to do." Ivan thanked him, took the card, and, promising to call on the Colonel the next day, he vanished. He hurried straignt uacKKjJlStterai Paul's hotel, andMririMd outside ull Count Linwold8Bleigh returned, when he handed him th a letter. The Count took the letter, and said: r ollaSr me, my man; I will pay you inside; Ivan followed him, and the Count meeting at the door an officer, with whom he entered into earnest conversa tion as they walked on, he forgot about Ivan, who kept respectfully behind him. fTO BE CONTINUED.! A Paper House for Skr-Uaftr. There is on exhibition at Worcester a portable bouse, to ba ussd dv tne Harvard astronomical party in their South American expedition. The building is made of heavy paper and canvas, sheets being stretched on a frama of pine scantling three-quarters of an in 'h wide and half an inch thick. It bb lilt in small sections, so that it can be easily and cheaply transported. The building, whon ready for occ.ipancy, is to be 18 by 23 fet, with eight-loot posts, and covered with a third pitch hip roof, thus raising the center of the roof about fourea feet above the floor. The top is surmounted by a handsome galvanised iron eupola.iu the center of which is a large pipe, which can be used as a stove funnel in cold weather. The o upok is made in movable sections for the purpose of affording ventilation. The sections are worked with oha'ns, and can be regulated as theoocupant wishes. The building is divided ' int three rooms, and is lighted by six windows, and has two entrances, one on either side. The building will bo taken do an, packed, anl shipped to New York, where it will be slipped to Peru, South Amelias, as soon as the necessary arrangements can be mido with the Peruvian Government to allow it to pas3 through the Custom House in bond. This is the largest paper house ever constructed. JSoso 2Vonscript, Punctual Men. Dr. John Hall and Dr. Howard Crosby are noted for their punctuality. Crowded as they are with engagements and meetings, they are never late, but generally have to wait for their more loiaurely brethren in the ministry. Haid one of them the other day : "If 1 had to attend a funeral on Monday and was fiftesn minutes late, and on Turaday was ten minutes late at a wedding, to tho dismay of all the party, and on Wednesday should bo late where I was to lecture, and keep my prayer-meeting waiting on Thursday, and so on until Sunday, what would my people thiuk of me if I should tell them that my failures to keep my engagements had been caused by a disordered watch ?"

MEDICAL MONOPOLY SOT WANTED. Boaton Dally Globe, Fb. Ttb, W. "In tbo Legislature of Massachusetts a bill is now ponding wUobo objoot Is to prohibit, under penalty of fine and imprisonment, the practice of 'modlolne, surgery, or midwifery" by any other than the 'regular' physicians. The attempt to pass such a bin has been made before, but It failed. It Is a measure whioh ought not to pass, because it Invades the porsonal liberty of the ouisen; not tho porsonal liberty of the 'Irregular physician only, but of the patient "Only yesterday Dr. Holt, in a paper read boforo tho Massachusetts Modioo-Legtl Sooloty, an organization of 'regular' physicians, complained of tho Ignorance of his profosf lonnl brethren as shown la the notorious Robinson poisoning eases.

"When Garfield was shot Ave of the most famous regular physicians In tho country spent throe months probing for tho bullet in tho region of his left hip. and after his death it u is found under his right shoulder-blade."

I have been afflicted with rheumatism twenty years. For the last ten years have been oblicod to use crutohes. Often my left hip and kuco would entirely give out. lluvs expended a largo amount of money for reinedlfs rooommondod as a oure for that terrible disoase; have used the most powerful liniments on my hip and knee to soothe the pain, that I might get a litllo sloop. My hip and kuoe had lost nearly oil strength by tho uso of linimonts, and I oouid get no help. I saw an advertisement of Hibbard's Itheumatio Syrup, ordered half a dozen bottles, took them and received some relief, then ordered a dozen. Have taken seven of tho lust dozoii. and I am happy in saying that I know I am being ourod. Have not used any liniment since I commenced taking your syru?. Whon I beau tukiug your syrup I could not tako a step without the use of a cano neither could I turn myself in bed without aid; can now turn in bed without any trouble, can walk about my house and offloci without tbe use of my cano. often losing track of it. for tho reason when I take a loni? walk I tako it along. My office is four blocks from my house; I have not walked to or from it for over a year until last Thursday, a week. Binco that time I have walked to and from it every day. except Sunday. I am truly rejoicing that I am fust being relieved from suoh a terrible affliction. Very truly, 8. S. Cohoveo. Agent of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co.. Manistee, Mloh.
