Still, I was hardly prepared one evening to see a tall, nervous forelgner stalk noiselessly and unannounced into our apartment and hand his card to Een- nedy without saying a word. ' “Dr Nicholas Kharkoff-—hum—er. tJameson, you must have forgotten to latch the door. Well, Dr. Khar- koff, what can I do for you? It is evident something has upset you." The tall Russian put his fore- finger to his lips and, taking one of our good chairs, placed it by the door. Then he stood on it and peered caut sly through the transom into the hallway. “I think 1 eluded him this time,” he exclaimed, as he nerv ously took a seat. “Prof. Kennedy, I am being followed.

At the street door Kharkoff stopped short and drew Kennedy back. “Look across the street in the shadow. There is the man. If I start toward him he will disappear; he is very clever.

I suspect that he is taking us to a club on the Jower part of the avenue, where a number of the Russian reformers live, patiently waiting and planning for the great ‘awakening’ in their native land. Kharkoff's cab had stopped. Our quest had indeed brought us almost to Washington square. Here we en- tered an old house of the past gen- eration. As we passed through the wide hall 1 noted the high celling: the old-fashioned marble “mantel stained by time, the long narrow rooms and a dirty white woodwork, and the threadbare furniture of black walnut and horsehair. Upstalrs in a small back room we found the venerable Saratovsky, toss- ing, half delirious with the fever, on a disordered bed. His was a strik- Ing figure in this sordid setting, with a high intellectual forehead and deep- set, glowing coals of eyes which gave a hint at the things which had made his life one of the strangest among all the revolutionists of Russia and the works he had done among the most daring. The brown dye was scarcely yet out of his flowinF white beard—a relic of his last trip back to his fatherland, where he had elud- ed the secret police in the disguise of a German gymnasium professor. Saratovsky extended a thin, hot, emaciated hand to us and we remain ed standing. XKennedy said nothing for the moment. The sick man mo- tioned feebly to us to come closer. ‘Prof. Kennedy,” he whispered, here is some deviltry afoot. The Russian autooracy would stop at nothing. XKharkoff has probably told you of it. I am so weak——' He groaned and sank back, over- come by a chill that seemed to rack his poor gaunt form. “Kazanovitch can tell Prof. Ken- nedy something, doctor. I am too weak to talk, even at this critical time. Take him to see Boris and Ekaterina.” Almost reverently we withdrew and Kharkoff led us down the hall to another room. The door was ajar, and a light disclosed a man in a Russian peasant’s blouse bending la- horiously over a writing desk. o absorbed was he that not until Khar- koft spoke did he look up. His figure was somewhat slight and his face pointed and of an ascetic moul “Anh!” he exclaimed. ‘“You have re- called me from a dream. I fancied I was on the old mir with Ivan, one of my characters.

Everything was littered with books and ‘papers. and at last he leaned over and lifted the dress from the chair to place it on the bed as the easiest way of securing a seat in the scantily furnished room.

An idea had occurred to him. and only politeness kept him listening to Kasanovitch longer. “Doctor,” he said, as Kharkoff en- tered the room again, “do you sup- pose you could get some Derfectly clean test tubes and sterite bouillon from Miss Nevsky's laboratory?
