AN APPLE FROM
I ST. PETERSBURG
(Ortctnal.)
Before leaving St. Petersburg lmnie-
iiately after the great January massa-1
ere I called on the American minister,'
whom I knew, and he asked me to car-,
ty dispatches to Washington, whither j
I was going. I accepted the commit
Ion and loft on the night train. It was j
overloaded with people aiming to e
cape the terrible events transpiring to j
the capital. A railroad vDclal tapped
me on the Bhoulder and offered to show
me to a seat He took me to a car
where there was room for but one per !
son, put me la, shut the door and was j
oft before I could fee him. This aston-,
lshed me, for I had supposed a fee was '
the object of his attention.
At every station on the route one or j
more of the passengers In my compart-1
niont got out rill at last there was but '
one left, a young girl. I had settled my-1
elf for a nap, but was still half awake, I
when I was conscious that this girl
was rummaging my satchel. I wis1
bout to start up to prevent her when
curiosity changed my Intention, and I
feigned to be sound asleep. The girl
found my passport and seized upon It
eagerly.-evldently much relieved to find
It in the satchel. Then she threw off a
mackintosh, took a soft bat out of her
pocket and appeared as a man. Rolling
her castoff clothing In a bundle, she
lowered the window and threw it out
It was not long after this that the
train stopped, the door opened and an
officer put lu his head and called for
passports. It was a critical moment with
the girl, and she turned pale as death.
Opening my satchel, I hunted for what
I knew she had taken and, not finding
It endeavored to explain to the officer
that I had left It behind. Meanwhile
thejflrl had produced it The officer
was sufficiently absorbed to my case to j
hand It back to her with but a hasty
examination.
"Tour passport T' he demanded of me
severely.
"I think I can satisfy you," I said,
and, taking the envelope bearing my
dispatches addressed to the secretary
of state at Washington, also the seal of
the American embassy, I showed It to
him. After some words he agreed to
telegraph to Bt. Petersburg for instruc
tions, which should arrive before we
reached the frontier. Then be locked
the door and in a few minutes the train
started on.
I expected the girl would thank me
for what I bad done, but I bad played
my part so well that she really believed
I thought I bad left my passport be
hind. Presently I said to her in French:
"Mademoiselle, you will pass the bor
der safely. I shall probably be detain
ed. May I ask ihat you will wait for
me at well, wpixxw I meet you at
Bronitwrg fuiHtuni of my passport?"
Without Yword she came over to
where I sat knelt before me and kixsed
my hand.
"Monsieur, you have saved me from
de.nth or worse than death Siberia."
'"You are very fortunate In availing
yourself of my purport."
"It la not lurk. A clerk in the Aiuerl
can embassy Informal our club that
you were to dejiart tonight. You were
shown Into tills compartment by a
railway official who is ulxo a member
of the club. The compartment was
filled with other memlers of the club
to prevent any one elxe from riding In
It The plan was laid for me. In the
hope that I mlplit steal your passport.
Had I not found It i your satchel I
should have drugged you."
"Why are you leaving ItuKsifl?"
"Just now It wouM not be host to
tell you."
"You are riht. I would rather not
know."
When we reached the frontier the train
stopped, and the officer appeared and
Sfiid that lie had received n telegram
that at the request of the American
minister I was to he p .itted t:i go on
without a passport. As s xm as l:e hud
withdrawn I looked at the girl. H!i
ha! fainted. I revived her with i'
drift from my tiask.
We had not gone far beyond the bor
der when from under a shawl on t! it
seat behind her she produced an apple,
lowered the window and was about to
throw the apple jut when I KtoppeJ
her.
"I think I deserve your eoi;i!ciicc."
I said. "What does this niean?"
"I must get rid of It," she Rasped,
looking at me appeallngly. "It Is n
bombr
Taking It from ber, I hnrled It with
all my strength Into a field. There was
an explosion. The train came to a stop,
and every bead was thrust out of the
windows. After examination, the offi
cials, finding that no Injury had result
ed, started the train.
Arriving at Berlin, the girl gave me
her addrees on my promise not to re
veal It and the next morning I called
on ber. She confessed the reason for
ber sudden departure from Russia.
"I was deputed by our clnb," she
said, "to kill that terrible man, the
Grand Duke Vladimir. I am the daugh
ter of noble, a high official in the gov
ernment and have access to all except
the emperor. The day I left St Peters
burg I bad offered a basket of fruit to
the grand duke containing two apples,

both of which were merely apple skins
filled with a glass bulb, the bulb filled
with an explosive. He chose one of the
npplea, and I brought away the other.
The one be took he laid on hit desk.
An hour Inter I heard that there bad
been an explosion in hit office, but he
was not injured. My plan bad failed.
"But I am only the Brat link to the
chain," the added. "Then are many
others. It will be accomplished yet"
She offered to return my passport
but I contributed It to the cause of
Russian freedom.

A Matter of Clothes
(Ortctnal.)
Colonel Browning of the the United
States Infantry never wort a uniform
when off duty, alwayt wearing the
plainest clothes. When be was a young
lieutenant he had bceu noticeable for
always dressing when In mufti in the
most fashionable attire. But suddenly
there had come a change. Ills fine
clothes were replaced by thoee of the j
most onllnaryStype. and from that time j
forward he never again dressed at a!
"swell."
One evening when a number of re
tired officers at the Army and Navy
club were sitting together one of them
who had known him all his life re
marked on the splendor of his former
apparel and the sudden change, where
upon Browning told the following
tory:
Some forty years ago a geutlemuu
stepped into a dance house at a point
on the upper Missouri river where wag
ons started for the interior. The gen
tleman could not have been more inap
propriately dressed If he had attended
an Inauguration ball In a woolen shirt
with his trousers tucked Into his boots.
It was a case of vice versa. The peo
ple In the dance house were team
sters, gamblers, thieves, cutthroats: th
women, tb lowest of the lowest class.
The gentleman went among them dress
ed In the height of fashlou. True, he
wore what are called business clothes,
but from their cut and texture among
the costumes In the dance house they
were as noticeable as If he had beeu
got up to represent a rnjab of India.
The gentleman Btood looking on ut
the motley crowd dancing about to the
music of a scraed fiddle, and, being
nearsighted, slipped a iwir of ptnee nes
glasses before his eyes In order the
better to take In the novel sight, lie
had never liefore seen meu dancing
with their hats on nor men and women
pausing to walk up to the bar to have
a drink together. And It Is question
able If the dancers ever saw such a
swell" looking young fellow In a sky
blue cravat spangled with white dots
looking at tbem through a pair of
eyeglasses without the slightest at
tempt to conceal his Interest in their
dress, manners and customs.
Very soon be was made aware of the
fact that the people he considered so
curious bad feelings at well at him
self, though not at delicate methods of
showing them. There were cries of
"Bloke:" "Tenderfoot:" "Dude!" and
such like appellations, and presently the
genOeruan became aware that they
were applied to him. He was atsjut to
turn and leave when a man stepped
up to him and, shoving a revolver under
his nose, said:
"Stranger, we consider ourselves wo'th
a drink ail round."
By this time the gentleman remem
bered that he hud heard of such ieople
as these and when they made a request
of a man In their power it must be
obeyed.
"All right" he said. "Step up!"
The man who had made the request
shouted that the stranger would set up
the drinks, and every one present drank.
The stranger Joined, realizing that If
he did not he would very likely never
drink agalu. Then he paid the price,
which used up a twenty dollar bill, and
was about to depart when the man who
had forced the Invitation said to him:
"Now you" here followed language
not to be repeated - "git!"
The gentleman had not tx-en unwill
ing to pay for the show he had enjoyed,
UioukIi under compulsion, but at this
point he demurred. Nevertheless he
bowed politely to the man and remark
ed that he was sorry to have Intruded.
Then he departed, walking briskly
down to the river bank, where be found
a boat tied up, on which were some
twenty recruits for the th United
States Infantry stationed at Fort .
They and the gentleman had arrived
only a couple of hours before and were
to proceed In the morning to the fort
"Sergeant," laid the gentleman, "get
your men ashore and follow me."
The order was obeyed, and lu a few
minutes the men with arms at right
shoulder were marching up the road
wayIt couldn't be called a street
the gentleman leading the way. When
they reached the dance bouse they filed
to and were drawn up in line before the
only door. The gentleman then brought
them to an "aim" and remarked to the
assembly:
"Every man on hit bead."
One or two who saw blood to hit
eye obeyed Instantly, but it was tome
minutes before all followed.
"Turn somersaults."
Every man obeyed the order. Then
the gentleman directed the man who
bad insulted him to get up on a tablu
and dance. When the sport became
tiresome the manager of the show turn
ed the men over to the sergeant and
ordered him to march them back to the
boat

had no change of uniform, but I did
have a suit of "clt's" clothes. After a
rubbing I put thetu on and, having
nothing tietter to do, thought I would go

I taw more than I had bargained for.
That episode taught me a lesson, The
wearing of anything to attract attention,
