LOCATING THE TRAITOR.

A bitterly cold winters evening, five men were seated together in a small room in a house situated in the Jewish quarter of a busy and largely populated Russian city. The appearanof of the room was as wretched as the e* Usrnas appearance of the house itself. The Holitary window was totally concealed tty a neavy faded curtain, depending from the roof, and as the wind moaned dismally through the broken frtihoH of ghm, lis sombre folds swayed to and fro- The inmates of this mournful den were seated around the table, smoking their pipes and talking, a» If furtively, in whispers. As the foe bit* rays of the candle fell fitfully upon the company they revealed the youthful faces of four students. The chief spokesman, however, was a much older man, apparently about fifty, with a short pointed beard, shaggy brows, and keen penetrating eyes of the darkest hue. The others deferentially addressed the speaker as "professor,* and such, indeed, he was, at that time, at a well known school of jnedioine in RUHHIII.

On the present occasion, however, he was speaking, not of science, but ol the terrible doctrine of assassination.

Prof, was a nihilist, a reputed Colossus of craft in the dissemination of revolutionary doctrines, and on the particular evening in question he wat engaged in advocating, with flerj eloquence, the assassination of 8 certain eolouel who had lately been promoted to the rank of chlof commissioner of tho secret police. As th* night wore on their whispered conversation was suddenly interrupted by a low knocking at the outer door. In a moment tho conspirators sprang noiselessly to their feet, and listened with butuil breath. The sound was repeated a peculiar whistle was heard from without and the listeners exchanged significant glances and quietly resumed their seals. Presently cautiout footsteps were heard in an outer room, the door was opened, and a young mar hastily entered. His face was pale, his manner agitated, and as he returned his companions' salutation* he regarded them with a fixed and hungry stare. "You have kept us waiting, comrade," exclaimed the professor, puffing away calmly at his pipe. "Ugh! we are almost frozen, for the air of thil wretched apartment Is quite Siberian. But now to business. We will warm ourselves with talk, and fire our mlndt with the prospect of revenge."

There was a murmur of approval. It was noticed, however, that the young man who had just appeared upon thfl scene took his seat In silence, and, resting his elbows upon the table, slowly scrutinized the faces of his comrades. ••My dear professor," he said at length, "we cannot possibly proceed at present with this business." ••Why nofcP" was unanimously asked, "Because," replied the latest comer, as he quietly sniffed tho candle, "because one of us Is a traitor." "A traitor!" exclaimed the men, starting to their feet. "Yes, comrades, we are betrayed ami tut BO oue knows of this plot of ours except ourselves, it Is plain, 1 think, that one of us has turned informant." ••You are mad to say so!" hoarsely exclamkHl the professor, "but in hear* en's name, what has happened? Come* toll us quickly. Tills Is no jesting matter." ••Listen, then. On my way hither, comrades, I entered a Cafe de Paris to sip a cup of tea and smoke a cigarette. I happened to sit down beside two officers of the secret police, and as one of them was somewhat tipsy could distinctly hear his conversation. 1 found It rather interesting. He told his companion that h* was under orders to surround this old deserted house at mldolght—it is near 11 now—and to arrest all persons found within. He mentioned, moreover, ail our names, and added,* with ama idUn laugh, thai a certain person, to whom the administration Is eternally indebted, would be found in our midst playing the part of conspirator. Now, comrades, I have done. What shall we doP

The men looked at each other la dismay, A dead silence filled the room, for the mere suspicion of treachery among the men who had solemnly dedicated their Ptves to the sacred cause of liberty seemed to hold them dumb. Such villainy In their very midst—among men banded together la sacred brotherhood—was a greater crime thaa tfnTmereUe*# aets el a decpot wid hls minions. »If this fa true,said the professor, to a voice of attppr«i«ed 'then will no loa««r fcelle** ia ha»aa fidelity, or the future of our cause.

—objected, however, to the proposal. ••Hut why?** hotly demanded the professor, wbo seemed all eagerness to begin the investigation. ••Because." was the hesitating re. joinder, *'because It Is unnecessary, Our word of honor ought to be enough. Besides, there Is something degrading in the idea of searching one another, as if Indeed, we ware a lot of pick* pockets. So let us break up the meeting. This excitement is absurd, and renders the discussion of our plot impossible. As for the story told by the drunken soldier in the cafe, I don't believe a word of it."

These words produced an angry murmur among the excited conspirators. The protest seemed so ridiculous and as the clamor increased Ivan turned to the speaker and warmly exclaimed, "Very well, we shall abstain from searching you, since you wish it but remember this, that if we fail to find a clue to the informant among those who willingly submit to the examination we shall then know upon whom to fix our suspicions. Now, comrades, search me first I am ready."

In a moment the speaker's pockets were emptied of their contents, and even the lining of his clothes was carefully searched but beyond a few old love letters, some political pamphlets, and an English newspaper with a paragraph obliterated with lamp-black, nothing of an incriminating character was found. A second student readily submitted to the test—if test it was— with similar results. Then a third stepped forward and placed himself in the hands of his companions. But at that moment a curious incident occurred. An Invisible hand suddenly extinguished the light of the candle, and in a second the room was plunged in utter darkness.

What did it mean? Who had quenched the light? For a moment the nihilists remained motionless, as if rooted to the spot. As they listened in alarm they heard a strange creaking sound in the direction of the curtained window.

Suddenly the voice of Ivan exclaimed in the darkness: "ComPados, this is a trick! Listen! Some one is endeavoring to escape by the window. It Is the traitor at last. His attempt to escape botrays his guilt. Stand back! 1 know how to deal with him."

In an instant the report of three revolver shots ran through the room and was followed by an agonizing yell as some one fell heavily upon the floor.

A profound silence then ensuod. It was an awful situation. At length Tvan spoke to his terrified companions. "Strike alight now," he said, in a trembling voice, "and let us look upon the face of a traitor. Will no one move? Are you all afraid to gaze upon the doad body of a miscreant who has betrayed us to our enemies? Come, professor, where are the matches? You had them last But hush! What sound is that? Listen! By heavens, comrades, the police are upon us already. The house is surrounded! Quick! Here is a trap-door known only to myself. It leads to the main sewer, and is out only hope of escape. Follow me."

Groping hand In hand in the dark, the affrighted men followed tho speaker's directions, and after some momentary confusion, disappeared into noisome abyss. None too soon. In another instant tho door of the room was battered to pieces, and a company of gendarmes entered. Lights now flashed In every direction, but it was obvious to all that the conspirators had escaped. The officer in charge swore long and deep, and ordered the men to search the house from top to bottom. Then, advancing toward the window, he stumbled over a human body.

this?" h© exclaimed, ex

amining the dead man's features with a lantern. ila! so they have caught you at last, my friend, have they? Well, you played the spy long and well, but it always jjocaos to this in the end."

And tearing down tho .window curtain, the ofHeer threw It over the rigid body of—the professor.—A. McDougal to Pali Mall Budget.

Young Amrrir* Is Prartlral. A Lewiston father took his brighteyed boy of 10 years to see the shell mounds at Damariseotta a few days ago, and endeavored to Impress a leason on the youngster. "My son," said he, "sec how orderly these Indians were. They piled all their shells up in a heap in this one place instead of leaving them around loose." "Pa." said the youthful auditor, after a few moments' reflection, "I guess I know why they did it." "Well, why?" 'Because I guese the Indians went barefooted and they were afraid the shells would cut their toes If they left them scattered over the ground.1"

Young America Is nothing if not practical «nd he thinks for himself.

He could not get his head out, and to his effort to do so he made a great noise by running the can against the fence. The man of the house was called up, and, arming himself with a revolver, he proceeded to tbe yard to make tut investigation.
