Beautiful Russian Jewess Who Passed Through Richmond Tells Story.

HAD A NARROW ESCAPE. MANNER IN WHICH SHE BROKE AWAY FROM THE RUSSIAN COSSACKS AND LATER FLED TO THIS COUNTRY, DANGEROUS. The principal of a plan to commit the most terrible crime known to Russian imperial law that is, to assassinate the Czar and- of the exposure that is said to have saved a hlow at the life of the present dynasty and 'summary death to the principal potter a fair girl not over 20 years of age, Miss Rebah Godzensky, a beautiful Russian Jewess, was seen during !& few miautcs' stop in Richmond, last niglA while a passenger on a westbound Pennsylvania train. "Wfren the train pulled into the station It was only the work of a moment to single out a beautiful young Jewess, whose manner was foreign as i well as her dress. "Are you Mies Godzensky?" she was asked, for a trainman had in some fway discovered her name. She answered with a stare of her large brown i eyes and a not of the head. "Where are you from?" she was asked. . "I come from the Russias," she answered in broken Knglish. Admits She Is Exiled. In broken English the girl said that he had left' Russia many weeks ago, Vad admitted after some hesitation jthat she was an exile from her native 'land. She had not time to tell more 'for the train was moving. FeeHng that the passenger who first (gave the information of the girl's presence aboard the train knew something more than the girl had told, it was in 1 order to hunt this genUeman up. He was found at a local hotel, being rec.ognleed by his presence, and admitted that be had traveled all the way froi I New York with Miss Godzensky, and that she had told him the reason of her leaving Russia. "We got to talking soon after we ft Jersey City,' he said, "and I soon learned that she was a red-hot anarch ist, or as she chose to call herself, a revolutionist. She seemed to glory in her allegiance to the 'Red Cause.' She -warmed to her subject and at first op enly declared that it would be a blessing to her country if the Czar f could be killed. in kioi to aiay xne uzar. "As she grew more confidential she went further than this. She declared that she had framed a desperate plot to kill Nicholas, and with a few close confederates had almost brought her plan to a climax, and was only I watching for au opportune time to commit the deed, and had been furnished money to stay in St. Petersburg for that purpose. She took up her abode in a respectable rooming house and waited her cnance. uut from the way she talked some one of ' the plotters, evidently, grew weakkneed and gave the plan away to the military authorities. "It seems that the girl had spent several months in the capital watching for her opportunity to shoot the Czar, and in her rooming house had formed two or three confidential friends, who were in sympathy with her scheme. But the authorities at once got busy and a band of Cossacks came to the house and demanded the girl, dead or alive. The officers were told that she was not in, but this did not satisfy them, and she was told to hide as they were about to search The house. A moment later the Cossacks broke in the door and this Rodzensky girl, seeing that death or capture stared her in the face, ran to a back storeroom to hide. But the Cossacks were scattering all through the house and she had to act quickly. Pbe saw a sack lying on the floor and she hastily called" a man laborer of the house to put her in the sack and carry her out as if she were a bag of rubbish. The ruse was so bold that it could not but be successful, and the laborer with the heavy burden swung across his shoulder, walked through a back door right between two Cossacks who were on guard. The thick-headed follows never suspected a thing. "Once in the street the girl told the man to carry her to the express office and bribe a train official to take her through to Paris. It did not require much inquiry to find a man of anarchistic sentiment, and so it was successTruth and Quality appeal to the Well-informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable standing. Accoringly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it, cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, .and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objectionable substances. To got its beneficial effects always purchase the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by 'l loading druggists.

Eloped to Ohio's Gretna Green And Then to Divorce Court.

Pittsburg. Pa., April 2. Elopements to Steubenville, Ohio's Gretna Green, appear to have disastrous results for Pittsburg couples. In Common plas court No. 1, this afternoon 10 mismated couples told their grievances to the judge and of the ten nine of them admitted that they had eloped and been married at Steubenville. Every one of the nine couples .tad eloped during the present century and the latest, one of the eloping couples had been married but two years. When Judge Marshall Brown received the same answer from couple after couple as to the place, they had been married he remarked that it. had been well for the elopers to have awaited for the consent of their parents. The most remarkable reason advanced for wishing a divorce was that given by Mrs. Julia Rebak. who declared that her husband. Michael, called her an "old maid." Judge Brown said that was not a sufficient reason for a divorce. fully arranged that she should travel through by night. "She reached Paris in safety, and, heavily veiled, at once made arrangements to reach the French coast and sail for the Fnited States. She had enough money to pay her passage and keep her comfortably until she could reach Los Angeles, where she said her sweetheart lived. "Her plans worked as she wanted them, and in less than two weeks after leaving Paris she was in New York. Now, I guess you know almost asmuch as I do. This girl whom you saw on the train seemed to tell a straight story, and 1 believe she really did figure in such an adventure. "It was the most romantic story I ever listened to and I believe it would have been a bad thing tor the Czar had the girl ever got the chance to use her revolver. They say a woman shoots straighter than a man when they are keyed up to a desperate deed." NOTICE DRUIDS.

Vaudeville at the New Phillips this week will again be featured by a special act that will compare very favorably, so it seems, with those of the preceeding weeks; even with Rismor, the Hindoo wonder worker, who was the chief attraction of the past w--ek. The special number for this week, given the head line position on the bill, is Gulliver's Lilliputians, reputed to be the original Harnum and Bailey Midgets, and who have : novelty melange act. The full program for the week will be found to provide quite a diversity, so that there should be no dull moments. It is as follows: Overture, Miss Eva Hazeltine, assisted by Phillips theatre orchestra, (evenings only.) Rose and Rose, said to be the world's champion fancy and sensational rifle shots. Illustrated song, Miss Thompson, "She Was a Grand Old Lady." The Zolas, the original 'mystic dears" in a "reflection." the latest Parisian mystic mirror novelty dance.

At the Gennett on Monday night. Henry H. Harris will again present Charles Klein's phenomenally successful drama. "The Lion and the Mouse." the supporting company and production being in keeping with that given here a year ago. In "The Lion and the Mouse." Charles Klein, the author, has written a play that promises to he of enduring popularity. Indeed, it may be said that the success achieved by this drama is anything known in America already beyond in the past ten years. The theme is most, pertinent to the present day when ever: one is keenly alive to the machination of trusts and kings of finance. Mr. Klein has displayed excellent judgment in presenting a phase of American life with which the public has become familiar through the newspapers and magazines of the times. He depicts a king of finance as he is, robb?d of melodramatic attributes. In opposition to htm he places a true figure of American womanhood it is tMeir struggle with the finale victory for the girl that constat tes the basis upon which this powerful drama of emotion is built. From this complication arises a series of situations of strong emotion, and admirably as they are written, they gain in power of conviction from

SECRET HAS BEEN SOLVED. Washington. April 2o. The deportment of Quentin Roosevelt on his southern trip has solved a mystery at. the Force school. Throughout the winter one of the boy? in a class of children about Quentin' age has been lavishing hot-house blossoms on his teacher. Repeated inquiries brought out only the fact that the flowers were given to the youth. Quentin left: the city and simultaneously the daily floral gift failed to appear. Now it has been learned the flowers canto from the white house conservatory. Quentin and the boy had made the bargain. The president's son was to furnish a stipulated number of blossoms each day in return for a lot of "milk tops." which is schoolboy vernacular for the discs of pasteboard the milk dealers use in the tops of milk bottles. The children have a game which they piay with thcs;? discs and, moreover, a certain prestige attaches to the boy who can show the longest string of "miik tops." Quentin's friendship with the nead gardener at the white house made the acquiring of a small boquet each day no difficult matter, so the bargain was struck and everybody was happy. Just before leaving Washington Quentin developed an unusual condition of despondency. Furthermore, he was several times in succession late for school. "Quentia," said tlie teacher, "svliat

"Why, Quentin, what has marked your face up in that fashion'.'" "That's what, is the matter," piped up Quentin. "1 used some red ink to make up for a clown and the ink won't wash off. This morning father noticed it and he gave me an awful going over. He says I'm a sight and I guess he's about right."
