Escaped From Polar Circle.
From Japan Deutsch went to New
York for a week and then back to Rus­
sia. In 1906 he was arrested dn S t
Petersburg and packed off to Turu-
chansk, a hamlet within the polar clr-
cle. Here he was one of thirty pris-
oners, six of them political. They rec
ognized In him a man of parts, and In
October, 1907, they delegated him to
purchase their supplies. He rode be­
tween two Cossacks to the village of
Yenisieysk, having previously apprised
friends there of his coming.
He eluded his guards on a plausible
pretext, met bis friends, put on wom­
ans clothes and for three days Imper­
sonated an Inmate in a local maternity
hospital, while his friends bought the
co-operation of a company of strolling
players. Deutsch then left the hos­
