PAGE SEVEN FOILED By D WIGHT NORWOOD T Copyright by American VMM olatlon, 1911. Jean Radskl and Anna Zobeiski Were Russian Inlanders. Jean was working bard to get enough money to gether to be married, for Anna had bnt a very small dot One day a man came to the village and pnt up at the Inn. He hailed from Moscow, bnt he did not explain the reason of his com ing. He did not take up any business or profession, and after he had been in the place awhile people began to wonder who he was and what was his errand. All they knew of him was his name, Peter Petroff, and that they learned from him. One evening Anna and Jean and Pe ter Petroff met at a dance. Anna was a pretty girl, and Petroff fell in love with her at sight He asked her to dance with him, and she accepted. He asked her again, and she declined. She did not care to dance twice with any one except ber lover. Bo Petroff asked her If she would not "sit out" the dance with him, as we call it in America. Not wishing to offend him, she consented. Petroff made the acquaintance of Anna's father and succeeded in ingra tiating himself into the old man's good graces. This gave him free access to the bouse and to Anna. Petroff told Zobeiski that he had a comfortable income and was well able to support a wife. He asked for Anna. Her fa ther told him that Anna was already betrothed. Petroff expressed surprise at what be already knew and much regret Zobeiski was vexed that Anns was tied to Jean, because be thought Petroff would be a much better bus band for ber. He told Anna of the offer and advised ber to break with Jean and marry Petroff. Anna was very much troubled when she beard this. She dared not tell Jean lest it bring about trouble between him and Petroff. Petroff ceased to offer attentions to Anna and treated Jean whenever he met him with great friendliness. This did not disarm Anna's suspicion that there was some thing wrong about Petroff and that be would gladly get Jean out his way Petroff had been at the village about two months without any visible occn patlon when one morning there was a large number of arrests in the netgn borhood of persons charged with plot ting against the government What was the surprise of every one to learn that Jean Radskl was among the num ber. It was plain to Anna that this man Petroff had come among them as a spy for the government; that be bad sent in the names of certain persons as plotters and bad Included Jean's name for the purpose of getting him out of his way. In a country like Rus sia, where persona are arrested with out due process of law. and harried off to Siberia without trial, this was a very simple method for Petroff to get rid of one whose place he desired to occupy. - This explanation of Jean's arrest was, of coarse, all inference with Anna and was not remotely suspected by Jean himself. There are certain things that women know by intuition, and when they thus arrive at conclu sions they are sure of them. Anna resolved to play a bold game. She sent for Petroff to coma and see her. Petroff came, and Anna said to him: "My father has told ma of your offer for my band. Of course 1 could not accept it before Jean's arrest But his complicity with these plotters against the government absolves me from my pledge to bias. Jean baa saved 8,000 rubles for oar wedding. I wish him to give them to me. If you can And a way for me to see him so that I can get him to tell me where I can find this money I will marry you. "All I can do," replied Petroff, "la to take you out on the road the prisoners are marching on, which la well known to all." "Very weU; let as go. I will have a sleigh ready In a few minutes." Petroff drove off a very happy man. He was surprised that after getting Jean oat of his way he should have succeeded with Anna without any ef fort, and he congratulated himself that Anna did not suspect that he waa the cause of her lover's arrest Bat he had not thought she was so merce nary. He had proceeded several miles when, coming to a rise in the ground, the prisoners were seen some distance ahead slowly walking, loaded with ball and chain and guarded hr troops. Suddenly Petroff felt something hard and cold against his ear and at the same time heard an ominous click. He did not need to look aside to know that it waa a revolver. With one hand Anna pressed It against him and with the other held paper and a pencil be fore him. "Write an order to release Jean," be said. "An order! What weald an order from me avail?" "Write! At three I flier Oner He dropped the reins. Twol" He wrote what she daatreal ! "Leave the sleigh." x He did so She whipped op the horse and, covering (he distance be tween ber aad the prisoners, pr rated ber order. Jean waa released. Taking him Into the sleigh, aba drove away by a diagonal road. Nei ther she ner Jean was ever again heard of In Russia. Tbei are now in America.
