Tims, to reach Siberia they wero com
polled to return to Petersburg nnd take
up tholr Journey from that place. The
exiles travel slowly, never more than
twonty-flvo vorsU Iwhig passed In ono
day, nnd every fourth day Is devoted on
tlroly to rest. It Is only nt every fourth
station that nn etapo olllcer is found,
and these nro tho resting places. At tho
other stations the gendarmes who ac
company tho exiles perform tho part of
that oftlclnl. I soon lecnmo weary of
this slow, monotonous way of traveling,
and the prisons where wo were forced
to Bleep wero such foul smelling, ill ven
tilated places that I felt I would soon
fall ill If I continued to occupy thorn,
Tlio prisons nro cleanod but once n year,
and tho accumulation of filth nnd ver
min found In them is simply appalling.
Tho walls and floor are damp and alto
together unlit for human habitation.
My only hope in bettering my condition
lay In finding some means of separating
from tho exiles. This I could only do by
feigning sickness and letting tho others
proceed without me. Twenty-four hours
aftor their departure found mo conva
lescent nnd remly to resumo my journey.
As a muii of rank, by law I was entitled
to tho prlvllego of one horse, nnd by tho
kindness of tho etapo olllcer 1 wns en
abled to obtain naecond horso for tho uso
of tho gendarmo who accompanied me.
Thus coulpped, I had no dllllculty In
ovcrtnlnug tho party on foot, In addition
to pastttng three ctapo stations In twenty
four hours. At the last of these I do
"elded toi.pcnd tlio night, as I wns becom
ing exhausted from hard riding. Whon
about to resume my journey in tho morn
Ing I wns informed by tho etnpo olllcer
tlmt I would find much difficulty In pass
ing the ofllciiU nt my next halting place,
-.vi(lioutoxpcricnclng considerable delay,
as lie would in all probability detain mo
until tho party from which I had parted
would reach there. Ho Bald the olllcer
at that Btntlon wns nn old eoldicf, ono of
Vno rjuavdft of tlio tlmo of Nicholas I, and
a man known throughout tho country for
his brutal treatment of prisoners.
It was with no pleasant thoughts that
1 parted with tho ofllcor who had volun
teered such disagreeable- information.
During uiy uhort stay un dcr Ids roof ho
had ahown mo every kindness, and 110
doubt told mo what no did to put uio on
my guard and proparo mo somewhat for
Jfcho reception J was likely to meet. I
was within fifteen vorsts of tho prison
over which Ivan Dlmltrlovitch DurakotI
exercised such ubsolutu control, and
whllo busy with my thoughts as how
best to approach tho old tyrant, a mujlk
(peasant) suddenly appeared In tho road
way, carrying in his hands u live black
grouse. It flashed across my mind that
U wouii bo a good idea to secure tho bird
an a present to tho old soldier's wife, I
thought tch a gift might sof ton tho old
officer's heart, for it is seldom that a
black grouso Is caught nil vo, and is thoro
foro regarded us a curiosity. Stopping
tho mujik I inquired how much he would
take for the bird, "Only tlf teen kopokos,
your honor," was tho reply. So the mujlk
gut hta fifteen kopekas und I tho bird.
Fortune favored mo, for on reaching
tho station tho much dreaded official
was absent, and my first meeting was
with his wife, into whoso good graces I
ingratiated myself by presenting her
with tho black grouso. I told her sho
must keep it In romembranco of a pris
oner's visit to her home. I then ex
plained to her tho situation of affairs,
and also related in detail my fear of be
ing locked up by her cruel husband nnd
the endless troublo such delay would
eauso me, ns I was in n great hurry to
reach Petersburg as quickly us possible
Ifmo. Anna DurakotI was a stout mid
dle aged woman; sho had kindly gray
eyes and beautiful long hair. Sho
laughed nt my fears and assured that no
such direful calamity as I predicted
would befall mo.
Sho replied: "You shall have threo
good horses for tho next thirty vcrsts;
the only uso I shall mnko of my power
will te to have you arrested until dinner
is ready. I am broiling uice spring chick

Is true ho Is timet in tho dlschnrgo

generous ton fault, nnd you need fear no
haim nt his hands. Will you pleiuo bo
seated whllo I nttoml to tho dinner? And
with n nmllonnd n soft "oxctiao inc." alio
departed,
Tho room In which I was seated gavo
ovlileiico of cousldernhlo tasto In tho fur
nlshlng, notwithstanding that every
thing in It was old fashioned. Tho halls
wero adorned with old family portraits,
whllo at olio sldo of tho room nn ancient
piano formed tho chief attraction. In
IIumIii it is not usual tocaret tlio iloors,
rugs being employed Instead, but In tills
enno tho lloor was simply painted, nnd as
clean as soup nnd water could malto It.
Whllo waiting tnndaino'H only child np

nrms tho bird which I had Just presented
her mother.
Tho daughter, Eloun, was n pretty, in
.creating girl of perhaps 14 years. ' 8I10
was very Inuch plensed with tho bluolc
grouso, callln,' It moy inlloy (my love)
und In oilt way oviuolug Iter pleasure
nt tho unexpected gift, I had been
seated nlout fifteen minutes when tho
door suddenly opened nnd Olllccr Durn
ItolT entered. UN npponranco wns fulfil
cloutly (lerco to mnko tho stoutest heart
qunll. Ho was a tall, powerful man,
who wore his GO years lightly, His mus
tache, Iron gray, wns heavy nnd flcrco
looking. Added to this ho had dark,
piercing oyo-i, which seemed to search
the depths of your Inmost soul. Ho was
dressed in a full captain's uniform,
which well bflcnmo his tall, handsome
form. Such wns Vnn Dlmltrlovitch
Durukoff, the man I so much feared nnd
of whom I hud heard mich frightful
things,
Ills appearauco did not nt nil reassure
me, and 1 bollovcd him capable of nil ho
had been accused of. Ho met me in a
very 0(H)), dignified mnuner. I explained
my position to him, nnd begged that; ho
would cause me no delay, but permit mo
to coutinuo my journey as I had lcon
doing. Mold hiui I had bouio money
with mo sufficient to pay for another
horse. I told him, ns I had his wlfo,
that it was absolutely necessary for mo
to bo In 1'otorsburg nt tho earliest possl
bio moment. I had Rcnrcely finished
speaking when ho shouted, in a voice of
thunder: "Oh, no; that Is against tho
law. You will have to remain hero un
til your party arrives, which will bosoino
days yet."
At this juncture tho black grouso en
tered slowly from another room, scam
Ingly as if awaro of my danger, und, If
possible, to assist me. Ixxklng at tho
bird In astonishment, Durnkoff ex
claimed: "What Is thntV" I explained
that I brought it a present to his wife.
Oht' ho s.ild, Inking my hand nnd
shaking it, "my wlfo is bo fond of birds,
and she has never before had in her pos
session a llvo black grouse. A thousand
rubles could not mnko her as happy as
the presentation of this bird." Dura-
Rous wnoio manner unu changed; bo
thero was, after nil, n soft side to ids
character. This man, ho cruel to others,
had nt least n tender regard for tho part
ner of his joys. With a smile lie turned
to mo and said: "I think I can arrange
everything in a satisfactory manner for
your departure. I will see that you have
fresh horses and all you require until
you reach your next resting place."
Ho then ordered cigars nnd vodka to
bo brought, with tho remark that ho kept
nono but tho best liquors. Tho daughter
came bearing the refreshments, nnd nt
tho same tlmo to look after tho bird. At
my request she seated herself at tho
piano nnd played audsaugHomo Russian
songs. Tho bird, surprised at tho un
usual Bound, remained perfectly motion
less for sonio minutes, its nttitudo sug
gestive of listening, which gave it a very
wise look and caused much amusement.
Dinner was soon served; it wns good,
nnd being hungry I did nmplo justico to
tho tempting viands, washed down by
copious draughts of vodka. Indeed, bo
much vodka did nunc host forco upon
mo that I soon found mvBclf in scarcely
a fit condition to contiuuo my journoy.
"When ready to start I caused tho offlcer's

old acquaintances, whom I had not seen
for mora than flvo years, having spent
tho intervening tlmo hi exile. Among
others I met tho Polish Princess Hranitz
ski; wo had been good friends prior to
tho imprudence which cost mo some of
tho Ijest years of my lifo. Sho possessed
considerable influenco nt court, nnd
promised, if noed be, to uso it in my
behalf.
On leaving tho steamer nothing would
have been easier than for me to escape,
as tho gendarmo who accompanied mo
Was in a beastly &tat of Intoxication,
having surrendered himself to the wiles
of the very cheapest klad of vodka. It
wna n sore tomptntion, as 1 had not tlio
slightest idea of what would ho dono
with mo on reaching Petersburg. Hut
honor forbado that I tnko nd vantage of
tho drunken soldier's plight! probably
his lifo would have paid tho forfeit. Wo
readied Petersburg nbout- 1 p. m., nnd
calling tho most rcspoctnblo ishvostchlk
I taw, I put my inobrlatcd soldier in his
onrriagonud prepared to enter myself,
first asking my escort whoro he wns to
deliver mo tip, "To tho chief of iollco,"
came in drowsy tones. So to tho chief
of police I ordered tho driver to tnko us.
Arriving there, wo wero told wo must
proceed to tho governor of tho province
(gubernntor), which meant another ride
of over seven miles. Reaching there, wo
woro ordered to tho governor general's
bureau, which wns six miles dlHtnnt.
It wns now about 0 p. in., und I wns
feeling hungry, bo I decided to stop nt n
hotel and have somo dinner. This through
with, wo diovo to tho bureau of tho gov
ernor general, whore tho clerk ordered
ua to tho forwarding prison, distant
about flvo miles. This I reached about
8 p. m., nnd wns received by nn officer
of tho guard, who opened tho great iron
gates leading to tho prison nnd conducted
mo to tho prison Itself. Its appearance
was the roverspof prepossessing, with Its
great soinlier wnlls towering toward tlio
heavens, gloomy nnd forbidding, and
when tho key turned in tho looks of tho
heavy iron doors It was as though somo
great body had been wrenched out of
place, emitting groans of mortal ngony.
I entered nnd wns taken up two (lights of
stairs to tlio olllco of tho governor of tho
prison. Ho wns n man of brutal aspect,
short, stout, with little boadllko eyes
which glittered with vengeful Ire.
Scarcely deigning to notice mo, he
ordered mo in brutal tones to pay tho
lshvoHtchlk eight rubles, which ho de
manded for our long drive in search
of somo ono to whom I could deliver
myself up. I replied that I had no
money left wherowlth to satisfy tho de
mand, and that, it wna tho duty of tho
government to bco that nil my expenses
wero pnld. This exasperated tho brute,
nnd bo ordered tho soldier to confine mo
in cell No. oOO. I found myself con
signed to tho very worst part of tho
prison, n plnco Bet apart for tho exclu
sive use of tho Scoptsl sect. It was n
largo coll on tho ground floor, hut bo
filthy nnd foul smelling that I could
scarcely breathe. It contained no fur
niture. On tho floor boiuo straw had
been spread, but from long use it had
becomo black with dirt.
Tired though I felt, I could not recon
cilo myself to resting on it. So I brushed
n spaco clear nnd, spreading my over
coat on it, slept soundly until 7 o'clock
tho next morning. Tlio first sight that
greeted my waking eyes wero tho two
hangmen (palatch) working in tho prison
yard. They wero both lamo. nowerful
men, dressed in thoctihtomnry red shirt. '
Olio of them, MnximofT, had murdered
his mother, anil wns sentenced to hard
labor for lifo; tho other, PaololT, had
brutally murdered his nged father, and
had likowlso received a lifo sentence
Doth men on being ndmitted to prison
declared their wIjIi to become hangmen.
' Their request wns granted, nnd they
nro apparently happy In pursuit of their
ghastly occupation. Thoy havo good
food, und nro allowed cigarettes and
threo glasses of vodka dally. They also
havo the privilege of selling tobacco nnd
cigarettes to tho other prisoners, ninking
a profit of ilOO per cent, in their transac
tions. When tho gondarmo entered my
cell I demanded to know tho reason of
my being placed in such a filthy plnco.
Ho replied: "Tho governor was displeas
ed at your manner of Bpeaking, nnd or
dered you hero for punishment." "Go tell
your governor that I demand that ho
sond for Prlnco SuwnrofT, tho governor
general; that I havo a very important
state secret to communicate, ono which
I must tell to him and him alone."
In a fow minutes tho governor (bruto
of the previous evening) appeared at my
cell door and, smiling blandly, said:
"What is this Btnto secret you wish to
communicate? Mnko mo your confidant,
nnd I will eeo that you nro soon n free
man; you will also receive a largo ro-
ward." X answered: "To Pi Inco Suwa
rod will 1 comiuunicato my secret, und
to him alone, and it is necessary that I
sec him at once." Tho governor remain
ed quite half an hour, .'!lleav9rig to
porsuado mo to comiuusicato my knowl
edge to him. I was proof against all
III wiles, Ho then RAid: "Dut you can
n6t rlc'dve tho prlnco in this placo. I
will havo yotl removed to ft better cell."
But I resolutely roftitfed to chango my
quarters until I had wen the governor
general. No amount of persuasion could
alter my determination.
Prlnco SuwarofI was Scat for, camo to
my cell nnd wns much ui prised to find
nn old ncqualntnnco nmSd nuch horrible
surroundings. My ruso succeeded; I had
no state secret to communicate, but I did

Prlnco Suwarofr, of whom I speak, was
tho governor general of the province of
St. Petersburg. He was ono of Russia's
greatest characters, and so greatly was
ho beloved by tho emperor that when
death claimed him, Alexander II refused
to placo another in his position, but chose
rather to abolish tho olllco entirely. Ills
kind heart and genial manner caused
him to bo tho recipient of numerous let

terccdo with tho czar on their behalf,
knowing him to bo tho personal friend of
tho autocrat of Russia, and having per
