{ing among strangers as the Count fLan- drinof? No, my friend, there would be no solid advantage to balance the tremet- dous risks He has come to your house because he finds it a grand center and sanctuary for the quiet hatching of his owneggs. That's all. Theman requires a little time to himself and a quiet place, and here he has found both. The plot? Very well. It is aimed against the head of the realm, of course. Be- tween the station Kirilof and Bootief, where the line runs through a forest, about one mile from the Bootief clear- ing, is a woodman’s cabin. Close to that cabin there is something very wrong With the earth. A careful exam- ination will disclose it.’’

*‘T see—a plot to blow up the czar’s train. But how is Andre concerned ?’”’

‘There are several concerned, but Andre is the head and chief of the The man to ask for on the spot is one Krolok, but he is a desperate sort of character, and it would be as weil to be very careful. The ground is un- dermined from the cabin to the very rails; all is finished, and the web waits for the fly. On Friday, unless he should be warned beforehand, the victim will buzz unsuspectingly into it, and, piff, where is the czar? There; that is my secret. If the police will not believe that Andre is Andre and not Count

in order to prove the fact, why, then, they are past praying for, and there is no more to be said.”’

‘‘How is the responsibility for the conspiracy to be brought home to him ?”’ said Borofsky, thinking aloud rather than asking the question.

‘Seize Krolok—let the police seize Krolok! They will soon find out who are his accomplices; they have a way of extracting information from their

| prisoners which, it is said, is irresisti-

ble.” **Well, I think I may say that you

justify your release and perhaps some reward. I will now discuss matters with my friends, and you shall hear the result as soon as possible.’’

‘*For the love of heaven, be careful!’ cried the student. ‘I repeat that if Andre were te learn that I am here and in communication with you he would murder ine on the we ane then disap- pear. Tl pose, reme emb er, for the police will as- suredly never return you your Count Landrinof unless you have another to give them in his place. If he were to murder me, he would disappear, I tel you.”’

‘“‘We must hope for the best, both ”’ said Borof- sky. ‘‘We shall be careful, of course.’

It was while Borofsky was repeating to Percy and myself the details of his the student that a summons came for him from our other guest, Andre.

Borofsky was in the habit of visiting Andre, so that the summons was noth- ing unusual, but he prepared to obey it, nevertheless, with some little trepi dation tonight.

‘‘He will be agitated about the pris- taf’s visit!’’ he said. ‘‘Probably he'll insist upon knowing why we visited the pristaf and where we got our in- formation from.’”’

‘“‘Gad,’’ I exclaimed, ‘‘that’s true. What shall you say, Borofsky ?’’

‘‘That depends upon what he says,’ said Borofsky. ‘‘I must be discreet and give nothing and no one away; that is the main thing.’’

‘‘He won’t be viclent, will he?’’ sug- gested Percy. ‘“‘Hadn’t ycu better pocket a revolver before entering the lion’s den, Borofsky ?’

‘‘He wouldn’t be such a fool as that. It would be a suicidal thing todo. His policy will now be, you'll see, to disap- pear suddenly while he rouses in us no He does not know that we know that the pristaf was here today, remember.”’

‘“‘Well, be careful, Borofsky!’’ said I, warningly, ‘‘for the fellow’s temper is dangerous. Don’t forget the Serpen- tine!’’

Borofsky smiled a wan smile. It waa not a pleasant recollection for him.

“TI think he’ll be mild enough to- night!’’ he said.

But only half an hour later poor Bo- rofsky surprised us by entering the room suddenly and rapidly, as though pursued, and by closing and locking the door behind him. His tie and collar were disarranged, his shirt front rum- pled; he looked, as Percy said after- ward, as though he had slept in his clothes and had had a restless night.

Borofsky sank into achair. He cross- ed himself and muttered something, a bit of a prayer, in Russian.

‘‘What is it?'’ we asked in a breath.

“I’ve been nearly killed,’’ he gasped. “I thought I was dead—he’s an awful man! I wonldn’t go throrgh that again

‘“‘What is it, man?’ claimed once more.

‘‘We must get that little wretch of a student away, and pretty quickly,” continued Borofsky, ignoring our re- mark, ‘‘or he’ll be murdered as sure as fate!’’

‘‘Do tell us what has happened, Bo- rofsky,’’ I implored. ‘I was quite wrong in supposing that he would play the cunning game. He made no attempt to control his anger. He was at me the instant I came in. He shook me as if I were a rat and he a terrier, curse him! I didn’t breathe a full breath for ten minutes. Have you a brandy and soda there, Boris Vla- dimirich ?”’ I supplied the necessary restorative. ‘‘Great heavens!’’ continued Borof- sky. ‘If I don’t set the police on the rogue for this and get him safely put away in the mines, I’ll never undertake another case. I must tell you about it in a few words, for positively no one

in the house is safe with that devil at large, and, as for the student, I wouldn’t insure him at cent per cent.”’

“But surely he doesn’t know the student’s in the house!’’ I exclaimed, aghast.

‘‘Well, that’s what I want to tell you,”’ said Borofsky.

CHAPTER XXX. UNMASKING THE IMPOSTOR.

Borofsky gulped down his dose and began.

‘When I entered that raving ma- niac’s room,’’ he said, ‘‘the fellow came straight to me and took me by the shoulders. ‘You’ve given me away to the police, you sneaking hound,’ he muttered, ‘and I’m going to kill you for it! Now, what have you to say be- fore I strangle you? Why have you broken faith? Did you not promise that you would keep guiet and not let your tongue wag?’

‘Let me breatbe, you fool,’ | gasped, ‘or how can I speak?’

‘He loosened his held on my collar a little, and I added that I certainly had so promised, but that many things had since happened which had altered the conditions.

‘* *Yes,’ he said, ‘you have heard a fool’s yarn as tothe arrest of Count Landrinof, and so on. I have had a visit from the pristaf, who has told me the whole silly tale. Can you believe this kind of nonsense?’

‘Not IL,’ ! said. wishing to concili- ate him.

‘* *Then why repeat it to the police? You have done no good by it, friend. The pristaf did the wisest thing he could have done and came straight to me. He is now convinced that I am Landrinof and that my wife and sou have conspired, fer reasons of their own. to get rid of me by means of this clumsy plot. it will not succeed. Mean- while who is your informant? You in- vented the tale—is that so?’

** *Yes!’ I said, jumping at a straw, for the man’s eyes locked devilish aud terrible.

"Yon liar!

he hissed, tightening

his hcld again. ‘Who is your infor mant? Come;I will know!

‘*I could scarcely breathe: I was suffo- cating. Inanother moment 1 must have died

‘**The student!’ I gasped. He relaxed his hold that instant.

‘*¢Ah, that is better—the student!’ he repeated. ‘How did you get hold of the student, and here?’

** ‘Count Boris caught him and squeez- ed him,’ I said; ‘it was not his fault.’

‘*« ‘Oh, I don’t blame him)’ he said. ‘Well, where is this student? I have missed him these days. Well, he isa liar—that is, he has lied to you—but he is useful to me, a kind of Mercury, and I must find him. Come; where is he? His fingers tightened upon my neck. ‘Where is he?’ he repeated. I struggled, but it was useless. He is far stranger than L_ I was on the noint of

strangulation when I told him, but tell him I did. I could nct help it. Then he let me come away, and I locked the student in his room and brought away the key—here it is—I could think of nothing better to do. We must spirit him from the house tonight and hide him in some hired lodging. I can get him a passport tomorrow, and he can take train to Reval and sail to Londen from there, or—no; Reval is his best way.”

“Tf wecan only safely get through this night,’’ I said, my teeth a-chatter with the excitement inte which Bo- rofsky’s recital had thrown me. ‘‘If we can only get through tonight safely and put the police on to this railway mining business in the morning, keeping our eye on Andre meanwhile, we shall have the department on our side by the even- ing. Audre won’t be at large long once we tell them about the intended at- tempt on the czar’s life—if they believe us sufficiently to verify the story, that ue

‘“Yes, and if the student hasn’t in- vented the whole tale!’’ said Percy.

‘*We should look pretty foolish if the police went there and found nothing!”’

““Go out, Percy, like a dear good chap, and take a room somewhere for the unfortunate little wretch,’’ I sug- gested, and Percy, as usual, stood nct upon the order of his going, but went.

He returned in an hour, having found a lodging for our informer. This was half a mile away, behind the Champs de Mars, in a slummy street whose name I have forgotten. The next thing was to get the student out of the house in safety.

We waited until past midnight be- fure we attempted to make the move Andre might te on the watch, suspi- cions of ‘such action as this which we were taking

cf heaven, not to mention this flitting to the ‘‘count’’ (should he come down to inquire), Gregory informed us that the ‘‘so called count’’ was not at home. The cld man, tix requested, for reasons, to call Andre ‘‘the count,’ would never consent to do so when speaking to ourselves; for us there was

ngn

| always the modifying clause ‘‘so call-

ed.’’ Andre had gone out an hour age and had not yet returned.

I confess that this information gave me a creepy feeling. It was not pleas- ant to feel that the murderous scoun- drel was at large and perhaps on the watch, suspecting and determined te defeat our machinations. Bah! I have often recalled that horrible sensation; it has fermed the backbone of most of my nightmares since that distressing time.

The student was radiant, however. He knew nothing of Borofsky’s terrible quarter of an hour with Andre, but he was relieved to be out of the house and rejoiced exceedingly over the prospect of tomorrow’s escape poor wretch, te

He informed me during the drive to his new quarters that he had never had a fair chance in life, having been born and bred in penury and among asso- ciates who neither knew nor cared to distingnish between that which is com- monly called right and that which is commonly called wrong. I dare say his complaint was perfectly true. If so, who is going to blame him for the ter- rible mess the poor fellow has miade of the thing we call ‘‘life?’’
