RUSSIA'S SECRET SERVICE.
Some Outcropping of its Pnnee in
This Country in Past Years.

waysrlHen iKHiuhu stock characters in

adsHit, "but. ' of course, the average
ead'r lias bis private doubts about
such peopK really existing. That, let
me Inform you. is wlw the average
render Is mistaken. During the reign
of. tire present Czar, things have leeu
pretty quiet Joi Russia; but lief ore that
time, when Nihilism was rampant and
refugees were coming bcTe by the ship
load, the Imperial government bad a
small army of spies all over tlie world
to keep track of the movements of ex
i!ed revolutionary leaders. It was
their lminea to Ingratiate themselves
with-tlie suspects, pretend sympathy
with the cause and isist the otliitials as
to any mischief that might ls hatch
ins abroad. l'lenty of that exciting
work lias gcaie on right uuJer wir

"Hmvevi-r.'to (ret back to tho Secret

h member of lb" order, but he
professed warm syinjisithy for It ami
was accepted as a comrade by the oth

him. from tlie little watchmaker, who
was naurally generous and unsuspic
ious and lwd leen impreswHl by his
xcal ami enthusUism. That sort of
tM-ii'g went on for four or five rn.ni lbs.
Thcni iif Jiigh. my frhiul tin Nlhd

of some note. - Luckily he hadn't teon
taken Into fiill'conttdte, so he had
learned BMthmg worth telling, and
while tlK oilMrs were dettatlng what
to do with him. lie suddenly took the
alarm ami decamped between sims.
Had he remained, he would nnjiloulil

suppose I would havelK-en ail acces

siTVaticii. On another occahn a
Russian spy came here to locate a
eoeple of Nihilists who had lecn jour
nalist in St. Petersburg. lie found
one: of them working In a 1m shop.
I'sclosed his Metitfty frankly and told
the refiwo to 1k in'rfoetly tranquil.
He said he was m tiding iu fake: re
port to the government, simply to get
pxion.e money, and promised that they
work up a big Nihilist scare and divide
what they could squeeze out of the
Sfsret Srvh-e bureau. The proposi
tion was 'politely declined. I saw the
fellow's palters and credential-. i my
self; they were undoubtedly genuine.
