I am rich. powerful and am not offering you an empty name. Will you be my wife. my princess?” “Prince Neslerov.” said Frances gen- tly, but still in a tone of reproof. “you cannot mean, I am sure. to take ad- \yntage of my situation. alone and at your mercy. You are a gentleman. Please leave such words for a more fit- ting occasion.” Pompousâ€"now that 1’ know you are interested in them-i will protect them from further harm.” "I thank you.” said Frances sadly. Neslerov slipped a coin into the hand of the drosky driver. and he immedi- ately had cause to go to his horses. which were standing peacefully enough where he left them. ““‘hat nonsense!" said Frum-vs. "Ev- erybody ’ has snmwr or later In live without a loved nun.

I would kill him!” “I asked your father. He treated the matter as of no concern; To me it is my life. Make me happy, the world is yours. Refuse me, you plunge me into (loop despair. I do not care to live without you.” “You are mad. Such words do not inspire love in tho heart_of an Ameri- can girl. Fools kill their rivals, but it is a poor revenge. I do not love you, prince, and so cannot marry you. Let that end the matter. I must now re- turn to Moscow.” “All occasions are the same to a man who loves as I do.” answered Neslerov. “You shall not go till you are mine!" cried Neslerov, driven to madness by her coldness. IIe sprang forward and slammed the door, shutting them alone in the unoccupied house. He stepped toward her. His breath came hot upon her cheeks. His arms were outstretch- ed to seize her. There was a look of mad passion in his eyes. She- knew no help was near or possi« ble. The drosky driwr was a Russian and would not fight the prince. She might scream, but her voice could not reach within two miles of the nearest house. The threatming lips, the touch of which would he pollution, were near her own. With a quick movement she slipped her hand into her pocket. “Stand back, you insultér!” she said. with a cold, steely voice. The shining barrel of a revolver was thrust into his face. It was not a large weapon and was ornamented with sil- ver, but it was large enough to do ex- ecution at short range, and it was al- most in Neslerov's very mouth. He staggered hack. taken by surprise. “You she devil!” he cried. \Vith an upward motion he made as if to knock the revolver from her hand. She hunt the barrel downward. The eontart with his hand exploded one cartridge. The flash blinded him. There was a red mark on his forehead where the bullet grazed the skull. Halt stunned and cursing. he fell back. Opening the (1001', Frances walked out. The drosky driver was waiting. He had heard the shot. “Do you see this?” she demanded, pointing the revolver at his head. "Yes.” he stmumered. “I have just shot l’rinoe Neslerov.

He knew just how long it took to go to Penn and return. Fran- ces had often taken long journeys by herself, but she was now three (hys overdfie, and the engineer was eager to get to the Obi. "Where can she be?” he asked him- self. “She must stop this racing all over the world alone. Something will surely happen to her one of these fine days. I'll stop it.” V lj‘rances arrived while he was making the resolve. HI‘Where have you been?’ asked Gor- don: “To Perm.” “To Perm! But you have been away three days longer than was necessary.

Their testimony so pleas- ed the minister of justice that Janggy has been promoted to he superintend- ent of the police at Tomsk. You seem to think there is some doubt of the guilt of these people,” said the govern- or, turning to Mr. Gordon. “For my part I am quite sure they are innocent. My daughter has been interested in them since the railway ran through Perm. It is not like them to plot. They are too simple andâ€" ignorant.” “But Vladimir is not. He is shrewd and intelligent. He has been a reader of books.” “Yes; my daughter furnishes them." “I am not at all doubtful myself," said the governor, with a grim smile. “Were I, I would begin an open inves- tl, "ation at once. But you understand. the accuser was a prince and the gm- ernor of Tomsk, and the minister of justice has set the seal of his approval on the thing. It is a delieate matter for me to reopen. But I promise you this: I will guardedly look into the thing. and it I see any ehauee for doubt for your sake I will do what I can to help the I‘aulpoffs.” “Thank you.
