MITCHEL During one of the incursions of the Russian armies into tierman territory a general, passing the estate of a noble, said to one of his aids: "Captain Ivanovich, 1 wish you to re main here till you get further orders from me. Take half a dozen couriers from my escort, amt whenever you see or hear of any movement of the enemy semi mo word immediately." Captain Ivan Ivanovich left the stud, directed the commander of the escort to detail six men to attend him and, fol lowed by them, rode into tlit* grounds of the house, which was set uikhi an eminence and commanded a view of the surrounding country. Dismounting at the main entrance, lie went, up ou to the porch and rupped loudly on the door with the hill of his sword. An old man appeared, who seemed to be a major domo, and the captain said to him: "I desire quarters here for awhile for myself and my men.” The old man invited him In, telling him that the family, on the appearance of foreign troops, lmd left the premises in his care and gone elsewhere. The captain chose a room for himself on the second floor and quartered his men In the basement, for Ivan Ivano vich, being a noble himself and a re fined man, felt disposed to treat the place as he would wish his father's es tate far back In Russia to be treated If the fortunes of war should bring about its occupation by the enemy Having thus taken inissesslou of his quarters, lie asked the major domo, Deter, if there was anything lo eat In the house. I’eter said that, there was. but no one except himself to cook it. But, since he had beeu a etief, he could get up a meal of such provisions as were in the house. The captain direct ed him to prepare breakfast for him and give the men such supplies as they needed. Having refreshed himself, Captala Ivanovich went out on the porch, which extended entirely around the house, and made the circuit, now and again ruising u pair of binoculars to examine rising smoke here, a flag t here, strong position ou the crest of the hill —anything, in short, that, might be of military importance. There was no flag In sight except the Russian impe rial standard, and the captain, lowering Ills glasses, went back into the house. Being lice lo use the library, he took down n book and, being a student as well as u soldier, was soon lost in its contents. The next morning it occurred to him that a cupola that topped the house would afford him a better view of the surroundings, and he started to go uj> there for tile purpose. Finding the door leading from the second floor to the third locked, he called to Peter for the key. “I haven't the key, excellency," said Peter. “When the family left the prern Ises they placed articles valuable only to themselves, such ns jsijicrs and heir looms, on the floor above, locked the door and took Iho key with them." Ivanovich could have forced the door but, as has been said, he was a refilled mun, unfitted for the barbarous side of war, so lie concluded to be content with the view he could get from the porch. Quite likely he was also Influ enced by the earnest look on Peter's face, which indicated anxiety that he should not intrude on the floor where the family heirlooms and archives had beeu stored. One night while Ivanovich was lying awake he heard a sound without hi? room, ill a large open space, throng which ran a massive stairway. Soldier in an enemy's country are naturally on the lookout for danger, and, taking Ills pistol from under Ills pillow, lie got out of lied and walked noiselessly ou hi bare feet to the door, which was ajar, and peeped out. A surprising sight met his view. Bright moonlight was streaming in through a large window at the head of the staircase and dimly illuminated what at first the captain conceived to be an gngel. It was a female figure robed In white. It was standing as If to listen. The face was sufficiently lighted to indicate that it was that of n young girl. On second thought Ivano vich believed that the figure was one of flesh arid blood wearing a nightgown and walking In sleep. The figure presently started on. de scended the staircase arid disappeared in the darkness. Ivanovich, too honor able to follow, remained where he was, thinking that probably the girl would return. Ills anticipation was realized .She reappeared holding something in her hand, though the watcher could not see what it was. Ascending to the door opening on the third story, she passed in and closed it behind her. Ivanovich listened and heard a faint sound, like the grating of a bolt moving in a lock. There was no doubt in the captain's mind that this girl was ensconced on the floor above and that Peter knew of her presence there. Who she was, whether any one else was with her, he knew not. He resolved to keep his own counsel, at least for awhile. It was evident that a woman was hiding on the floor above, and he did not con ceive it to be bis duty to disturb her. Indeed, he had already been sickened by the bottom of war and ready to shield any of its victims even among his country's foes. But Captain Ivanovich I hereafter kept ills eyes and ears open. Me walk 'll around the liouse, looking up at tin windows, The blinds were all closed, mid there was not a sign of life to lie seen. "After all." lie said to himself, 1 wonder IF 1 could have dreamed it." However, Ivanovich repudiated this idea, lie lmd seen a figure robed in while descend the staircase, return and disappear through the door lead ing to tile floor above. Of this tie was certain, and the absence of any appearance of life there did not con vince him that he was in error. Soon after the appearance of the •mysterious figure the captain's atten tion was diverted from Its considera tion by the appearance of a large force of the enemy to the southeast. He dispatched a courier to find the gen eral, if possible, and inter, hearing heavy firing and seeing columns of smoke In tile same direction, he dis patched another courier with another messuge. These matters having been attended to, the young captain's mind again re verted to the mystery of the upper story. lie said nothing to his men about the mailer, fearing that if he did he would excite a desire on their part to investigate, whereas if there were any investigating to he done he preferred to do it himself. One day one of the troopers came to him and told him tliut lie hud better leave Ills quarters, for the man was sure the house was haunted. lie had seen In the middle of the night a figure eltul in white standing at an upper window. The superstitious Russian, having con sidered the third story vacant, natural ly regurded the figure at the window a» a wraith. Ivanovich told him tbul. the figure lie hud seen muBt have been an illusion, but failed to convince him. There was a hillside buck of the house, covered by trees. Ivanovich went out there with his binoculars und remained a long while, watching what was going on. The- distance was too great for him to gain much knowl edge of any value, but he kept Ids watch Ill! satisfied that It was useless, then turned and was emerging from the wood, when, casting an eye ut a window on the third story of the house, he saw standing there a young girl looking at, what he had been ob serving. This time the sun was shining full in her face, and the captain saw not. only that she was comely, but there was on her features that anxiety which Is so touching in the young. Realizing that, if she saw she was discovered It would add to her distress, he remained in con cenIntent t 111 she withdrew, closing tin window. That face, once seen by moonlight and again by sunlight, produced a vivid Impression on Ivan Ivanovich. It float ed before him during the day, and at night lie saw the wruithllku figure de scending the staircase. It was evident thut a girl was hiding, and it was pos sible that there was some other cause for suffering (him fear of an enemy. The location was Herman I’olnnd, and I’eter had told him that the residents of the house were l’oles. But In war time one is as likely lo be plundered by friends as enemies. flue night Ivanovich heard quick footsteps overhead. Getting out of bod and putting on some of his clothing, lie went out and listened ut the door lead ing to the third story. He heard signs of something happening above. Then the door was unlocked and a woman— tills time dressed In ordinary npjmrel— came out. und met him face to face. Nlie turned to go back, but Ivanovich said: "Von have nothing to fear from mo. Tell me if there is anything 1 can do for you." Having been thus given confidence, (he girl revealed the mystery. When the. Russians appeared In the region her mother, herself and her brother, aged seventeen, a wounded conscript In the German army, expecting to he murdered, retreated to the third story, leaving I'ctor to deceive, if possible, whoever might come. They had taken provisions with (hem and would have got on had It not been for the wounded boy, who was deprived of medical cure. The night site had appeared on the staircase she was going below for a bottle of medicine which a surgeon had left for the use of the invalid. On this her second appearance her brother was much worse, and she was trying to steal out with a view to getting medical advice as to what to do for him. She closed her explanation with pleading that Ivanovich should not make her brother u prisoner, for if dc prived of her and her mother’s tender care lie would surely die. The captain, having assured her that, though an enemy, he had a heart, went below and ordered one <rf Ids men to find a surgeon and bring him there at once. Then he went upstairs and found the mother and the wounded boy. whose fours he allayed. They were comfortable so far as their quarters were concerned, und be ordered Deter to bring them properly prepared food. A surgeon arrived in due time and treated the wounded boy. who began at once to improve. A week passed after the unveiling of the mystery liefore <'aptain Ivanovich and Ids men were withdrawn from their quarters. During this week the young officer by Ills consideration for Ills captors secured the good will of the mother and the son and a more tender response from the girl. When he left her there was an interview between them, the result of which was known only lo themselves, though there can lie bill little doubt that they referred to what might lie when the war should be over and peace should return to take the place of one of those periodic re turns to barbarism to which the world bus thus far beeu subject. Mystery About Precious Stones. That the diamond and other pre cious stones were made In the tin- fathomed and fiery caves of earth and brought to the surface by volcanic or other upheaval, is well established, especially In regard to those of the South African fields; but more myste rious than this Is thut they have been found in the paths of the ancient gin cial drifts of North America. They are held to be very vaguely related to all crystalline forms which are others of the mysteries. COULD SCARCELY WALK ABOUT Cretinism Made Curable.
