IKirled from Llvadla which lllustrattvs the
coolness ami phvslca! courageor Ihn czar.
One morning recently he slnrted out
te hunt, and was leaving the palate
by a rear staircase which he holdeni
iises. Just til the moment of the czar's
npisiarance n nuniber of soldlers or llie
guard were rushing up the stairs nlter a half
sivagabruLil looking inenjlk, whose arms
and hands wero Ixmuil by straps of leathor,
The piltoner was struggllitg furiously te os es os
eapo iitul Ins struggles became even mero
desporate when hesnw tlie C7Jir. The guards
tried te take him away from the czir's sight
but his majesty ordered them te halt and
asked : " Who Is the man ?" They explained
that he was n leader among the local Ni
hilists and had been prominent In kin
dling the lerest llres which had lately occurred
around Llvadi.i. " Let him be unbound
while he Is in our presence," was the
iinexK)cte.l order given by the czar. The
moment the man's hands woie lreetl he
crouched with his fingers claw lug the alras
though he would threw himself Isidllyeu
the i im and attack him w ith his nails. Sonie
or Iho elllcers or the czar's stall threw them
selves between tlm Nihilist and the cir, but
the latter motioned thein aslde, and without
a weapon In his hand, or en his persen, calm
ly awaited the attack. It came In an Instant.
The Nihilist made a tlesK)rate spring towards
the czir, but whlle he was still In the
air his tnnjesty caught hint by the
right arm alsne the ellsiw, and
with combined grip unit twist well
known te wresders, threw him te the ground
with apparently as much ease as he would
have evor thrown a boy. The Nihilist
sciainbled te his feet and again niadenslmllar
spring. This ilmu the czir caught him by
Iho left arm with llie sime grip and agalii
easily threw liitu te the lloer. The Nihilist
had by this time get enough or It nnd he lay
panting but motionless. The iv ir took n seat
clese by and Halt! le the vanquishes! Nihilist:
"New tell us what you dogs complain of?"
The prostrate Midlist at ouce liegan
a long and bitter arraignment of what
he nml his comrades consideieil the
crimes for which the czar .should die.
He telil the czir that he had violated
the memory el his own ruber by declaring
the emancipation of the serfs a ternble nils
bike ; that he had done his lssl te restore the
common people le a sLite or slavery ; that he
had made thousands of unjustlllable arrests,
accompanied by tlrcumsLitices el the utmost
brutality; that he had kept Innocent prison
ers centiucsl lu loathsome dungeons without
charges or trials, until death or insanity had
come te their rellef, unit that he had many
fines premised Kiissia a constitution, but
had never lullllled his pledge. The last ac
cusation itiatle by the Nihilist is said te echo
complaint which Is very provnlent among nil
the troops lu the Crime.u He said the czar
had taken all thelr host men away Irem their
farms and had kept thein Idle until seetl tlme
was past sethat they would have nothing te
live en it they went home. They hail, he
said, l.oen p-oiiilsed that they would be led
against Constantinople, where plunder
enough was te be had te make thein rich fiir
life, but instead or this they hud been kept
uselessly drilling until thore soemed te be
no presit or war In any quarter. The czar
listened te all these accusations calmly, anil
with the exception or n (irmly set expres
sion about the mouth nml a llerce
gleam in the oyes, there was nothing te
indicate that he was lu the least ilegioe af af af
focted by the Nihilist harangue. When the
Nihilist ceaseil the czar arose anil said
quietly te the ellicers nearest him :
"New we will resume our hunt," and the
imperial party left Iho palace.
The Nihilist was again secured and taken
te the cells in the bisemeut of dm patace. It
is understood that he was afterwards Hogged
te death.
