THE EXILES. i i RUSSIAN STORY. After waiting a few minutes, Yegor and M Lafleur saw the head of a seal emerge nrudently from tho Ice. The quickest of hie two bears gave it a blow with its claws which brought it half dead out of the water. Then the bears precipitated themselves upon the amphibious creature, tore it to pieces, Ind began to devour it. This was a favorable, moment to attack them. Yogor, who had had all the trouble In the world to restrain the two Siberian logs and keep them silent, released them. On hearing them bark, the bears seemed uncertain as to whether they should allow themselves to be attacked or beat a retreat. But already M. Lafleur had fired a ball at each of them. The bears hesitated no longer, and seeing that they had to deal with resolute hunters, vanished behind the ice blocks. ' CHAPTER XXVII.—YEKMAC PATS HIS DEBT. Then began an animated chase across the blocks of ice. Yegor and M. Lafleur ad vanced, guided by the furious barking of the dogs. But tho bears went still faster; from time to time, the hunters saw them climbing over the icebergs, white as them selves, and altogether out of range of their guns. As they went along, M. Lafleur told Yeg or, who put but slight faith in what ho said, that when the ice of the soa commences to form, in tho month of September, the white bear female captures and kills a great num ber of seals which it hides in the hollows of some rock. Afterwards, it goes into the in terior of the country to gorge itself with lichens, in order to create in its stomach a sort of mechanical obstruction; theii, it returns to its magazines of provisions and fills itself with as much seal fat as it can hold. This done, it takes up winter quar ters in a hole it has dug in the side of a glacier. After a certain period of seclusion, it brings forth one, two, and sometimes three cubs. In this crystalline crib, it nourishes and exercises its progeny in walking until the commencement of April, when, in their turn, the seals begin to bring forth young. Then, the ursine family quits its retreat, the mother marching at its head and snuf fing the air. It seeks out and follows, thanks to Its scent, the invisible track of a seal as far as the spot where tho poor creature-is rearing its young offspring. When the boar has found tho iglou of the seal, easy to re cognize because of its round shape (like the Iglou of tho Esquimau), it makes a spring, bounds upon the top of the slight habitation, and makes sueh good use of its four paws and its weight that it breaks it in, immedi ately seizing upon the young seals with which to regale its cubs. .icgur uuacrvuu w xvx. buuii su many fables circulated in _ regard to the polar bear that it behoovod one not to be lieve too readily everything said concerning it, especially its wintering by means of vol untary burial. Suddenly, as they were advancing a little distance apart, a third bear, putting the dogs off the scent—the dogs were running too far forward—surged up from behind a block of ice and came towards them with that confidence in its strength or that ignor ance of danger which characterizes the boar of the Arctic Ocean. Yegor perceived it as it was treacherously advancing; he took aim at it, and M. Laf leur, quickly turning about at this moment, sent a ball after the bear, but missed it. Yegor waited until the animal came nearen When it was within ten paces, he fired twice and hit it. The boar, feeling itself wounded, stopped for an instant and howled; but it immedi ately took to flight, tinging the snow with its blood. M. Lafleur vainly discharged his gun at It Tho bear scampered away, and soon dis appeared among blocks of ice whither it was Impossible to pursue it. The dogs, badly trained for the chase, ob stinately clung to the tracks of the fist two bears, and the hunters ran a great risk of returning empty-handed—a prospect more than disagreeable, considering the scarcity of provisions. Meanwhile, Nadege and Ladislas, who had remained in tho hut beside the fire, grew anxious at the long absence of tho hanters. Yermac, seated opposite to them, looked at them in silence, avoiding, when they spoke to him, any other reply than a motion of the head or a shrug of the shoul ders. The look of this taciturn man weighed upon Nadege. Wab, doubtless hearing in the distance the barking of the two Siberian dogs, began to howl in a fashion that made an impression on the young girl. She put on her warmest garmonts and, followed by Ladislas, ventured out of the hut. The twilight had begun early, and the state of the sea seemed to her n sufficient cause for uneasiness. Clouds, harbingers a tempest, were heaped up to the east. Mists were rising from the ocean. Soon she saw the water, beaten by the hurricane, spring up in immense shoaves and fall back noisily upon the white promontories. Under the influence of a violent north-east wind, the yet free waters of several open spaces <hrow with unheard-of force enor ®ous blocks upon the plains of ice which they broke into fragments. Plates of ioe tose to the summits of the waves, dashed •gainst each other with a crash and disap rv"*^ uoverea wita ioam. xne waves fushed upon the blocks and buried them; but, the next instant, the same blocks, ris *UfT again to the surface, scattered the water around them, and, hurling them* selves upon the nearest masses, struggled until they got thorn under. A resonant and continual cracking of the breaking Ice min gled with the noise of the wares uplifted by the wind. The explorers of the polar seas affirm that no word can describe the nature of this noise, it is at first under the convulsed and trembling ice, like the hissing of a thou sand arrows, an infernal din in which the sharpest voices yelp mingled with the deep est, and the roaring becomes more and more •sjage. The ice breaks in concentric cracks; its brokon fragments roll one upon another. Then begins a ferocious, titanic strife, a headlong combat which recalls the battlo of the elements in the first ages of the world. These masses march, meet, strike each other and dash against each other, changod by a hidden power and seeming to obey passions. Abovotheso convulsive scenes, the re Section of the ice gives the sky a strange aspect and illuminates it with a supernatu ral light. Wab, still with Nadege, began to howl Without rospite. Ladislas strove to calm his sister** tear* Me told her—which was true—that Yegoj eSf.MvJ-nfleur were hunting among the ““ns of icebergs situated in the west, ana the free waters could not reach there U •xecute their suddon ravages. •ut the terrified Nadege advanced oour v 0V*Tth® *®11’ ln th® direction In wWoh sha might hope to meet Yegor, whom •he regretti d having allowed to venture to Z y°un* STlrl bought that ln tho oun light the hunters would guide them •elvesby the barking of Wab; she counted thI l?teli1Kenc® of Yegor’s dogs, and followed the faithful animal which, ln all probability, would go ln the direction where tne hunters were. Suddenly, It seemed to hor-and to Lad tolas also—that tho solid plain over which they wore advancing was in motion beneath their feet. They were not deceived. Soon the oscillations were more marked. Be neath their stops, the ice crackod and split. Several black clefts furrowed the snow nt random—they wero crevices in process of formation. Nadoge wished to go back, but behind them now a canal had openod, encumbered with moving ice. At this sight, the young i j # aefran 40 utter despairing cries. Tho 1*<1 - iod In vain to quiet hor. Wab barked 1°'*' - than evor. The vast cake of ice upon Which they wero, floated. Suddenly, a wave lifted it, dragged it away, and precip itated it with irroslstiblo forco upon tho frozen surface. The shock was terrible! A prolonged cracking resounded bonoath their foet, and they felt that tho wave, in withdrawing, had borne away enormous fragments of the broken block. Nevertheless, they arose unhurt. Guidod by the instinct of Wab, they began to run ln the direction opposite to the tempest, over a Hold of ice several feet thick, which seemed likely to remain motionless and re sist all the efforts made by the waves to separate it; but thore, tho ico blocks, strongly pressed one against another and bristling with Jagged points, opposod a thou sand obstacles to the rctroat of the two poor creatures. Soon Ladislai. ’.tterly exhausted, was in capable of advancing further. Nadoge took him in her arms, lifted hin up, and, though an instant before almost ready to swoon, found sufficient strength to boar tho child far from the perilous spot. Looking about for help. Nadege perceived Yermae, who had been drawn from the hut by the din of tho tempest and the barking of Wab. The chief of police came towards them. Ho was speedily stopped by a crevice which Nadege had not yet seen but on tho brink of which she soon arrived. Tho young girl gave vent to a heart-rending ery on seeing the insurmountable gap which had oponed before them. It was a deep and very long fissure, full of water and bounded on tho right by a perpendicular iceberg. It ap peared to bo seven or eight feet wide. Nadege and Ladislas seemed to havo no other resource than to wait upon the spot until the wind should cease and new ice form and become strong enough to bear ’them, which would take place in a few hours. But tho garments of both, wet u^ua vuuui. Immobility and waiting, therefore, meant death! Yermac had found a more prompt means of aiding them. Pieces of ice of different sizes lay upon the edge of the crevice; he thought he could make a bridge of thorn, and immediately fell to work. At the first block ho removed, Nadege comprehend ed his generous intention and felt all her hope revive. Some pieces of ice scattered about in the crevice, following the motion of tho water, others fastened themselves to the opposite side of the crevice, and soon the bjidgo was firm enough for Ladislas first and then Nadege to cross it. The child had no sooner let go his sister's hand than Yermac seized him and drew him over. After this trial, Nadege traversed the bridgo of ico without assistance. As to Wab, the animal had fol lowed Ladislas and then returned to Nadoge os if to invite her to fear nothing. Ladislas embraced tho chief of police. Nadego knew not how to express her deep gratitude to him for his intervention in the midst of their great danger. At this moment, Yegor and M. Lafleur; preceded by the two dogs, made their ap pearance, arriving, not without some trou ble, from the west. They also had suffered, tho wind render ing thoir progress very toilsome by lifting the snow and hurling it in their eyes. This snow thus agitated disarranged their route by forming, as do the shifting sands, ra vines, Ijjtle valleys, and hillocks which they were forced to go around, sinking the knooa in a fine dust. The surprise of the hunters was extreme on seeing Nadege and Ladislas upon the ice, their garments covered with an icy coat and stiff with stalactites, and Yermac besido them, wet also and shining with ice—for he had not spared himself while working. They were soon informed of what had taken placo by Ladislas. “Ah! Monsieur Yermac!” cried Yegor, ‘■you are better than you would have us be lieve. To-day you have saved the lives of all of us!” But, after tho Joy of finding each other again safe and sound, there was a disap pointment—the hunters had brought back nothing from their rough day’s chase. As to tho chief of police, the day had been favorable to him. Onco again he was square with Yegor. It was a good omen for him. CHAPTER XXVIII.—THB TCIIOCKTCIIIS. There was no change in the disheartening situation of the fugitives, excopt, apparent ly, an alteration in the arrangements of the chief of police. Yermac’s attitude was less haughty. He allowed himself to be a trifle familiar with the lad and the young girl whom he had saved from certain doath; but the exiles felt that he maintained a reserve from which he would not depart. His cold kindness resembled that of a Jailer to whom prisoners are confided; his consideration and willingness to holp did not go beyond a certain limit fixed in advance. Besides, he persisted in refusing to touch the few provisions which appeared upon the common table. In the midst of their penury, with famine threatening them if the Yakoutos did not soon return, the fugitives had a stroke of good luck. Wab succeeded in capturing unaided a deer of the same species as that recently killed by Yerm-.c. The dog leaped at its throat and did not let go until the animal was strangled. This exploit accomplished, the brave dog returned to the hut, and dis played such a desire to have Yegor follow it that the young man did so, the dog leading him to the spot where the victim lay. The two other dogs were keeping guard over the prectous prey. The deer was drawn tri umphantly to the hut and the dogs were not forgotten, especially Wab. Yermac, still inflexible, limited himself to remarking that his deer was larger than that killed by Wab. M. Lafleur, seeing the difficulty of placing his hand on a bear, fell back upon the seals. He made a harpoon and used the Siberian dogs to discover the retreats of the amphib ious creatures. The dogs, gifted with keen ■cent, led him to a number of those narrow openings that the seals make in the ire and through which they breathe—and get har pooned. The Parisian, despite cold and hunger, passed days and nights in watching for a prey that defied his inexperlonco as a fisherman, as tho boars had defied his lack Of skill as a hunter. Finally, supreme succor reached the fugi tives one evening in tho shape of two old Tchouktchis, male and female. Suffering from hunger and thirst—for thirst is as im perious and difficult to satisfy in those des erts of snow as it can bo in those desert s where the sun scorches tho sands—they hud come from the Bay of Tchaounsk and wore going along tho coast In search of a station of natives, there to beg for some provisions. They had percoivod the smoko escaping from tho roof of tho hut and had como to ask for hospitality. “Toroma!” said thoy, in one voice, as they entered. This moant good evening. Yogor rogrettod the absenco of his faith ful Tokol, who know a little of the lan guage of the Tchouktchis, and answered at random: F’om their miserable looks more than thoir gestures, tho fugitivos understood what they wanted, and, although the sup ply of provisions was approaching tho end, tho two poor wretches hud for supper enough to furnish the two meals of tho next day, and that succeeding, for thoir ap petites seeruod immonsc, their hunger in satiable. Tho typo of these natlvos recalled the Mongolian typo of tho old world, combined with tho type of the Indians of tho north of America—of Behring's Strait—a Hold of solid ice for a part of tho year serving as a bond cf union betwoon tho two rui 03 us totwoou tao two continents. Tho man woro sovoral reindeer akin blouses; his head was covered with a hairy hood which also covered his shoulders bo neath his outside garment. His shoos wore made of bear skin with tho hair on tho ex terior. His wife, who was covered with a number of tunics, tied at tho hem so as to form pantaloons and with slcovos open at tho wrists, had her faco tattooed with stripes of dark blue, Dcsnitc tho hunger which tortured him, tho Tchouktchis seemed deeply impressed by Nadcge’s beauty which was altogether new to him. Ho could not tako, from her his admiring and curious eyes, and, os ho examined her, he entered into a talk with his wife in which the word lcamakay was often repoatod. (A kamakay is a chief of a tribe.) Then, after having noticed M. Lafleur's harpoon in a corner, tho Tchouktchl seam ed astonished that ho had not been given slices of seal fat to oat. M. Laflour made him understand by gestures that he had tried to capture soals, but without success. At this, the native, designating himself by striking his chest and pointing to the har poon and dogs, promised to give, as soon as -J — if Mv»| »• IV l/UW A MIUIUU (I UUU1 he took for a Russian. The next day, in fact, the native was not long in harpooning a seal. Guided by the dogs, he reached a brouthing-hole of these creutungs. Then, ho sounded the snow with the harpoon to the depth of two or three feet; for the seal cuts its breathing-hole through the ice, but stops at the coating of snow. The little opening found, the fisher man waited patiently and in silence until the seal came to breatho the air. At the second or third breath, the harpoon, swiftly penetrating tho snow, plunged into the head of the animal. The seal dived, and drew out to its full length the line prepared in advance, whicb was fifteen yards long. This lino is fasten ed to the iron of tho harpoon and the other extremity is in the hand of the harpooner. The breathing-hole of the seal, immediately cleared of the snow which covered it, was enlarged so as to permit the passage of the body of the animal when it should become exhausted. The native speedily drew the seal from tho holo and carried it to their hut. There, after the lesson in fishing, took placo the lesson in cooking. While the man cut up the seal, the woman, in order to be useful, made oil for ffre lamp by chewing pieeos of tho fat of the animal. She toilod so arduously at her singular work that she soon fillod-a wooden jar with oil of her manufacture. The seal cut up, the native, by way of example, stretched himself upon his back to bo fod by his wife with pieces of the fat, which she stuffed in his mouth as one stuffs, a chicken, “It's all over!” cried M. Lafieur, after par taking of tho seal fat. “You no longer need bo uneasy about my food, my friends. As long a#thcro are ice and seals, I shall not be a burden to you and will abandon to you my Bhare of everything else!” Yermac, who had allowed to be piled up before him seal steaks, raw liver, and slices of fat, hesitated what to do. He hod not tasted of the deer strangled by Wab, and for very many days his food had been ter ribly lacking both in quality and quantity. At length, he decided to taste the seal flesh, and followed the example of the Paris ian. The Tchouktchi, having met with succe-h, no longer hesitated about swallowing all tbe pieces of the seal within his reach. lie ate pounds and pounds of it, and, when he nau rescues mu iasi stages oi repletion, threw himself flat upon the floor of the hut, abandoning himself to the gigantio work of digestion. The next day, the natives, revictualled for a time, departed without ceremony, carrying away the romains of the seal and stealing a small and curiously worked skin bag in which matches wore kept. The fugitives soon had reason to repent Of the kind reception they had given them. Meanwhile, M. Lafleur profited by their teachings. One day, aftor having harpooned a seal, he drew it out of its hole. As he knelt upon the ice, he felt himself familiarly tapped upon the shoulder and thought that Ladislas had come up behind him. He pulled the harpoon from the flesh of the an imal, but the hand upon his shoulder grew heavier. The Parisian turnod and nearly fell backward on perceiving a huge white bear which hod watched the details of the “arpooning and shamelessly claimed the aimal captured. The boar, taking advant age of the deference shown it by M. Laf leur, who yielded place to it, as may readily be belioved, seized upon the seal and carried it off, without as much as a growl of thanks, In the direction of its don. From that mo ment, M. Lafleur no longer went harpoon ing unless armed with his gun. The chief of police had, it seems, acquired a taste of seal flesh. After having followed the Parisian once or twice, he borrowed his harpoon and succeeded in capturing a superb seal, the best cuts of tho fat of which he carefully laid aside. This astonished Yegor. “What does he want with that supply of fat!" asked he of M. Lafleur. What did he want with it! Seeing that the Yakoutes did not return, he was reso lutely thinking of flight and getting ready h<> provisions for his Journey. 1*0 BE OOMTUIUHlI il- .!. w-v BmI of.All To alcanas the system In a gentle and truly beneficial manner, when the spring time comes, use the true and perfoct rem edy, Syrup of Figs.
