A Story of the Russian
Revolution
By Allen W Thompson
Copyright by American Press Asso
ciation 1911
jxiSSS
I lived on my fathers estate in the
department of Tula in Russia Sev
eral of us living in close proximity
were very intimate Nicholas Dini
wiski was a sort of leader among us
a serious intellectual fellow who
never spoke without weighing his
words Then there was Anna Alex
androvna a young woman calculated
to shine either in court society or
among those women who band them
selves together in England or Ameri
ca to accomplish some great good for
their sex Next came Lisa Saranin
not over eighteen as gentle and re
tiring as the other two were full of
vigor
I suspected that Nicholas was tinc
tured with the revolutionary doctrines
at that time spreading all over Rus
sia This I regretted for with his tal
ents he might win the favor of the
government and this would in turn
enable him to occupy some high of
fice
From a few words I overheard
spoken between him and Anna it
seemed to me that she encouraged
him in taking a position antagonistic
to the czar Nicholas was influenced
in a contrary direction by Lisa whose
nature was fitted for a quiet peaceful
life
I suspected that both these girls
loved Nicholas and that they were
two antagonistic influences the one
ySvw
SHE CAN BEND ME TO SIBERIA
pulling him toward a dangerous ca
reer the other endeavoring to keep
him out of the strife that we all saw
coming He was fired by Annas ideas
while Lisas restraining influence was
not in accordance with his ardent na
ture
That there was a strife of another
kind between these two girls I did not
doubt It seemed to me that on the
one hand the resolute Anna would pos
sess Nicholas if she was obliged tc
wreck her life in order to get him and
It seemed that if the gentle Lisa did
not get him she would herself be
wrecked Not one word concerning
these things was spoken There was
underneath our intercourse a current
running deep and swift that was
scarcely noticeable on the surface I
think I was the only one cognizant of
it and even I did not realize Its
strength
Finally our little group was broken
up by Nicholas and I going to the cap
ital I to practice law Nicholas ostensi
bly to do the same but since he was
possessed of a good Income there was
no necessity for him to labor Great
was my surprise when he told me on
our way to St Petersburg that he was
engaged to Lisa I was pleased to hear
the news for as I have said I sympa
thized with Lisa In this struggle be
tween the two girls But somehow I
did not think Anna a girl to give up a
lover to one who considering her own
dominating nature must have seemed
greatly her inferior Now that the sub
ject was an open one between us I in
timated this to Nicholas Ilis reply
was characteristic of him
I know nothing of the rivalries
among women and care less A mans
heart Is independent of his relations
with any woman I love Lisa Anna
Is companionable with me in an intel
lectual way
But does not Lisa fear her influence
over you
She does She distrusts Anna But
one cannot expect that either of two
rivals will do the other justice
These few words furnished me with
food for thought during the rest of the
journey I have noticed that the good
iwomen of the world are apt to be cor
rect in their judgment of the bad ones
It struck me that Lisa was endeavor
ing to protect the man she laved
against an evil influence But with a
mans logical mind I asked Avhy should
an influence drawing him to take up
the cause of a downtrodden people be
bad And here is where a mans judg
ment is often mistaken when a wo
mans is right lie attacks a question
with logic which is fallible She at
tacks it with instinct which is infalli
ble
We hadnt been long in St Peters
burg when I learned that Anna was
there What she had come for I did
not know but I believed she had come
because Nicholas was there I saw
her name among those present on
ftp J
1
r
eral occasions at court balls and IieurfL
mat sue was quite xiituluiuuul uiuvui
the beauties of the capital I often
met Nicholas and without directly
questioning him gave him every op
portunity to tell me if he saw her
often and what was going on between
them yet he never would talk about
her a
But one day he sent for me I went
to him at once and found hims very
much agitated
Whats the matter I asked anx
iously f
You have heard the adageK Hell
hath no fury like a woman scorned
Well
I have resolutely refused to make
love to Anna It is one of tlioscjsiii
gular cases that I cannot understand
Her love has turned to hate
How can she harm you
She can send me to Siberia
Surely she will not do that
I think not I fear not for myself
but for some one else
Who
Lisa
Great heavens
It is a question which a woman
scorned hates the more the man or
the rival who has taken him from
her
But how can Anna harm Lisa
That I dont know I only hope
that if she harms her at all it will bo
through me It would be some satis
faction for me to suffer for my own
fault in not listening to Lisas warn
ings If one hair of Lisas head should
be harmed directly I should go mad
I said all I could to comfort him but
in the situation there was no comfort
There had been a great revolution in
his mind with reference to Anna I
could see that while before he had had
confidence in her and had admired her
he now stood in terror of her
I went often to see him during the
next few weeks and always found him
much worried One day after not
having called on him for a longer
period than usual I went to his rooms
and found them empty I asked the
concierge what had become of him
and was told that lie had gone out
two days before and had not returned
I knew the blow had fallen I
made every effort to find where Nich
olas had been taken but never suc
ceeded in getting the slightest clew
either as to the time or manner of his
arrest I did not doubt that he had
been arrested for revolutionary de
signs
It occurred to me to go and see Anna
Whom I had known intimately and
question her What use Would she
admit that she knew anything about
Nicholas No I would have written
Lisa sympathetically but knew not
what to say to her I might say just
the wrong thing There was nothing
to do but let the horrible episode take
its course or rather wear out the
lives of thoio who were involved in
it as countless similar ones had done
with others
I went home not long after this and
as soon as I arrived went to see Lisa
I was informed by the butler that she
was not at home I asked where she
was but he could not tell me He
only knew that she had gone away
some time before She did not return
during my stay at Tula and I could
not find out anything about her All
that concerned her must have been
very secret for no one seemed to be
aware that anything unusual had hap
pened
But while I was at home news came
that startled the community It was
that Anna had been found in her car
riage after coming from a ball at the
Winter palace with a dagger driven up
to the hilt in her heart
All that was known as to whom the
assassin might have been was that
the coachman heard the door of the
carriage close Presently he heard
it close again But whether any one
got in for the purpose of committing
the deed he did not know He had
not seen any one enter or leave the
carriage The deed was the mystery
of its time at the capital Upon
my return to St Petersburg I asked
an officer of police with whom I was
acquainted about it and he told me
in confidence that Anna was a paid
spy in the service of the government
and it was supposed that she had
been assassinated by a relative or
friend of some one she had betrayed
The assassin was never discovered
The next time I went home I called
upon Lisa She had known through
Nicholas that I sympathized with him
and with her and she showed her ap
preciation of my interest in them But
I found her very much changed She
was not twenty yet she looked thirty
with an oldish look at that I refrain
ed as much as I could from speaking
of the unpleasant features of her love
and neither of us spoke of the death
of Anna Alexandrovna Lisa seemed
buoyed up by a hope that she would
before long be reunited with her lover
but she gave me no reason for her ex
pectation
Two years after this I received a
letter from Nicholas postmarked the
United States of America It told me
that Lisa by the death of a relative
had come into possession of a valua
ble estate She had turned it into
cash gone to Siberia bribed his jail
ers and effected his escape They had
gone around northward by sea and
shipped from England for America
They were living happily on a farm in
North Dakota raising wheat
The closing paragraph of the letter
interested me greatly It referred to
the punishment that had been meted
out to Anna Alexandrovna In my
heart I could not but admit that in
Annas death I had seen Lisas hand
revenging her lover The epistle closed
with these words
While in prison word was passed one
day that a government spy had been ar
sassinated by order of a revolutionary cir
clo and that her name wa3 Anna Alexan
drovna A young man killed her In her
carriage
I breathed a sigh of relief
