Twelve Reasons Why THE Farmers’ Review IS The Practical Paper FOR The Business Farmer

AN ODD GROUP

By GRANT WHEELER

Alan Chandler just before the breaking out of the revolution in Russia some years ago went to St, Petersburg—now Petrograd—on business. He had studied before going the Russian language under a Russian instructor and could converse fairly well in that tongue On the train between the border and St. Petersburg he fell in with a young Russian who on hearing that he- was an American chatted with him agreeably, expressing much interest ip the great American republic. “Where are you going to stop in St Petersburg?’’ asked the young Russian, who gave his name as Peter Alexandrovich. “I suppose 1 shall go to a hotel until I can find apartments.” Alan replied. “I have rooms in the house of an old lady who is very motherly and Is always attentive to her lodgers’ wants. I dare she say she may have some vacant rooms.” Alan Jumped at this chance of getting settled, for he disliked hotels and was glad to avoid them even temporarily. He went to the lodging house and waited In a reception room while Alexandrovich interviewed the landlady. Then he and the landlady rejoined him, and the latter said that there were no rooms vacant at the time, but an occupant was soon to go away. If meanwhile the American would accept a couple of rooms of Alexandrovich's suit that he did not need he would be welcome to them. The landlady, Mme. 'Groutsky, was indeed a motherly woman. Her face was especially benevolent; her hair was white; her features bore the stamp of suffering. It seemed to' Chandler when he looked nt her that he was gazing upon one of the Christian martyrs who had lived nineteen centuries before. He had only a few hours’ acquaintance with Alexandrovich, too short to warrant his trusting the man. but was so drawn to Mme. Groutsky that he resolved to accept the offer for the sake of effecting an entrance to the old lady’s house. There was but one other roomer In the house besides the American aqd Alexandrovich—Stanislaus, a Pole. He' was seldom there, but when he was ' there he and Alexandrovich were sev-1 eral times observed by Alan to have ] their heads together. Stanislaus was the person who was expected to vacate bls rooms. But day after day passed and he showed no sign of doing so. Meanwhile Alan was taken ill. He was so carefully nursed by Mme. Groutsky that when he recovered he would not leave her on any account, although there was something mysterious about Alexandrovich that excited his distrust. Alan could not discover that he had any occupation. He would be absent sometimes for days, and when he returned instead of mentioning his absence or any incident con neeted with It he never referred to it. One day when Alan returned from the transaction of certain business he had on hand he found Mme. Groutsky talking with a handsomely dressed young lady. The girl looked up at Alan with a pair of eyes which, so long as they were fixed upon him, held him spellbound. What it was in their dark depths to make him feel that for their possessor he would jump off the brink of a cliff he did not know, nnd yet he saw her only a few moments while passing through a room to the staircase leading to the second floor. Not a |»erson Chandler met under this roof but impressed him. They were all different, but were all linked together by some mystery. The land lady seemed to be the guiding spirit At least, Alan could not but notice that they all seemed to look up to her with reverence. Though the gentlest among them, she appeared tu be the strongest The girl who bad fixed those won drous eyes on Chandler never came to the bouse again. He was minded to ask the landlady who she was, but somehow he felt that there was a barrier between him and the others In the house that he was forbidden to pass. One day when he was walking on the street a police officer tapited him on the shoulder and directed him to go with him. The polfceman took him to a police station, where sat an officer at a desk. Pulling out a drawer, he took therefrom a little leathern case and, opening it. began to look from it to Chandler and vice versa. Presently be handed the article to Chandler, ask Ing: ‘Ts that your passport?” Chandler, thunderstruck, said he believed that it was. "You Americans are very Incau tlous." said the officer. “What do you mean?" “I will show yon if you will come with me.” He led the way to a sleigh standing at the door and motioned Chandler to enter it. Then they were driven out of the city to a road along which in the distance a crowd were seen slowly approaching. When they reachc ed the sleigh Chandler saw that,they were prisoners marching to Siberia. His .eyes rested on .Stanislaus, then on Alexandrovich, then on Mme. Groutsky Lastly his gaze met that of the girl with the wondrous eyes. “They have’becn plotting to assass! nate the czar,” said Alan’s guide. “Luckily we had evidence that you were hot one of them or you would now be with them. What they wanted of you was your passport.”
