Although Dr. Louis Smirnow had his American passport and was free to enter Russisn unmolested, he want- «dl the experience of "stealing the frontier." So he got into communica tion with one of the "irontier brokers" who make a business of smuggling people into or out of Russia for fixed sums. As he was travelling in the land of the Cossack under an assumed name, Dr. Smirnow leaves blank some oi the dates and names, "for obvious reasons." In his account of his cross ing the frontier, in the Great South- west Magazine (Kansas City), - he gives us a glimpse of "graft" in Rus- #.a, an empire whose foundations, he gays, "are of solid bribery, and the superstructurs of incompeten.s; and jsresponsibility cemented with vodka and ehampauskoe (champagne.)" We yead 1. it was a beautiful . autumn morning promised & bright clear day when we started, 1 and my fellow "frontier purloiners,"' the driver and the broker, toward the frontier. We were in a long, uncomioriable, oY the Great that springless waggon, with piles of straw for. sents how a trying journey shead us. Yellow and gold fields, ax far as could be seen, spread out in all the glory of a full harvest of waving wheat and corn, where these had not yet hoer cut down, There was vigor in the morning air and three hours of rapid driving brought us to tie last station, a mere hamlet, the German side. The end of German territory was in sight, We approached it at a rather slow pace, halted on the line, looked back for a moment thoughtfully, then pulled across, We were in Russia! And yet > were hot, for not a very great dix | tance away was a sentry box painted with alternate black and white stripes, a sign of the Russian government, and two wooden posts about twenty feet apart, similarly painted, ~were con nectar by heavy iron chaing, | Straight for this chain--(WFpate of Russin--the driver was making. Our hearts beat high with suspicion, fear, excitement. We thought surely the frontier broker had betrayed us and was bringing us straighi into the jaws of the lion to give us up to his mercy. | Ax for myself, 1 would most likely | come in, if vaught, for a few months lor a couple of years in a loathsome dungeon before my case would go through all the great mass of Rus- sian red tape and finally reach the ears of the American consul at St. Petersburg, or 1 might at once be given my walking papérs and banish- ed from | Russia, never again to enfer it--under official knowledge--which would be a great pity. Wo stopped in front of the drawn 'chain, - 'the black-and-white striped | i posts, emblems of Russian authority, | being "on 'either side of us. | Our broker alighted and went into | | the guardhouse, walking boldly and! with head erect, like a man who was iat homéy here mud in his proper ele- ment. | We held our breath, except when some of my companions uttered curses | and imprecations, and even this was' jdone im a whisper. Some cowered | down #0 as to become as diminu- | (tive a® possible, with the instinc- {tive animal desire in the presence' of a natural enethy to escape no- tice, Shortly our broker came back with an officer at his side. It loo as if our immediate arrest was a cer: tainty. But the other smiled as he came up to our vehicle, and I notic- ed that the two bottles of the fine Bordeaux which 1 had seen sticking out of the broker's pockets were now bulging from the pockets of the offi- cer's great grey coat. "Zdrastoitye I' wag the officer's greeting, but those who understood hin dared nov reply. "This is the Italian duke," broker: as he pointed to me; "the noble lady at her side is her highness, his wife, and the gehtleman on the left is their som.' : "Prevdo, .pravdo, ya ponimaiyu." \ I blushed searlet with both indigna- tion and shame.

They could not even fall in their tracks, for the neighbors chained to them front and rear prevented it. They went on below my window, dragging each other wearily, while the heavy escort of Cossacks, many of them reeling drunk, whipped them up with thelr knouts and goaded them on to renewed efforts, occasionally hitting one with a carbine or pricking = one with the point of the baycn:t because of apparent fatigue and readiness to drop from exhanstion, .
