In Which a Passport Plays
an Important Part
By EDWARD R. CHANDLER
"t't"'t'''K"t"i"t"t"i"t"t-'H"i"l"t",i'
At twenty-two ycara of ago I found
myself with a fortune and my own
mistress. My parents had died when
I was n little girl, nud I was brought
up by an aunt, who had a family of
her own and was not sorry when I be
came independent of her, though she
had nothing to do with my support.
For some years it has been considered
quite nllowable for American girls of
independent character and means to
travel abroad by themselvos without
escort. Acting upon this, I resolved
to see the world.
After visiting those countries In Eu
rope that are a common ground for
tourists I became curious to see Rus
sia. I was warnod to keep away from
tho snowy empire on account of tho
revolutionary troubles Infesting it, but
this only heightened my desire to visit
It. I saw no reason why I should have
any trouble. I had no desire to de
pose tho czar and if I had would nev
er have thought of contributing my
puerile powers to that end. Before
leaving America I had received a pass
port from the state department, and,
though I had had no occnslon to use
it In other countries, I knew that I
would need it In Russia.
But before going there I resolved to
learn something of tho Russian lan
guage. I spent n winter In Florence,
Italy, where I found a teacher, and by
spring was enabled to converse fairly
well In Russian. Had I not been thus
prepared I should not have this story
to tell, for the story came from making
on acquaintance, and I could not have
very well made, or at least retained,
the acquaintance without being able
to speak Russian.
After passing by train tho border of
Ihe empire a young girl who got Into
my compartment was good enough to
mswer questions I asked about St. Pe
tersburg, giving me information as to
whore I might nbldo. Girl tourists scl
3om go to hotels; they nlmost always
stop at pensions or apartments, and
the greatest drawback to their journey
ing alone Is arriving nt a town not
knowing of such a house in which to
locate.
Tho Russian girl told mo that she
tvas going to St. Petersburg without a
:haperon nnd had been provided ahead
ivlth apartments by friends. When she
heard that I was an American she
ieemcd to take an especial interest in
Die, asking me about my country and
bow to get there. I noticed her study
ing my features and my general ap
pearance, but why she did so I was at
x loss to know. Before wo reached
the capital I was surprised at her pro
posing to share her apartments with
tno during my stay there. Since I must
;o among strangers anyway nnd had
become favorably Impressed with her
I told her that I would bo greatly
Jbllgcd for tho privilege of staying
tvlth her, at least till I could find per
manent quarters.
I found tho apartments very com
fortable.. I supposed thoy were expen
ilve nnd questioned my friend about
tho rental. Sho replied that she did
lot know; I need give myself no con
:ern about that; I might pay her what
jver I liked. But I did not let the mat
ter drop till I had arranged the price,
ind since I saw no occasion to hunt
Tor nnother lodging I settled myself
tvhero I was for an Indefinite stay. We
ivero served by a cook and a chamber
maid. There were four bedrooms.
though we needed but two. Indeed,
tvo wero provided with every comfort.
My friend's name wns Catherine. Iler
Jther name being very hard to pro
aounco I do not givo it hero. Like
Most of her countrymen, she was very
fair both In hair and complexion. There
ivas an uneasy, restless look In her
5yo which did not correspond with
anturally passlvo features. Why she
:amo to St. Petersburg, who wero the
Wends who had provided her with
theso apartments, what sho was doing
it tho capital, sho did not tell me. No
sno over camo to see her, but I fancied
that sho must go to see others, for she
spent very little time nt homo. I, too,
fas out a great deal, seolng what
thero wns to bo seen In tho way of
lights. Indeed, tho only time wo met
luring the day was at luncheon and at
Unner, but wo usually spent our even
ings together.
One night I was awakened by nn ill
ness and, getting out of bed, went to
Catherine's room for assistance. Sho
tvas not there. A clock was ticking on
aor dresser, and I noticed that the
bands stood at half past 1 o'clock. Tho
bed had not been disturbed. I was
very much nstontehed. Sho had said
nothing about expecting to go out dur
ing tho night, and could not under
stand how sho would do so without va
'hcort I went back to bed and lay
Jrero wondering.. What should I eay
to her in tho morning about finding
ber absent? I concluded to wait for
her to speak about it I lay till morn
ing before getting to sleep, tho matter
f tho mystery I had stumbled upon
keeping mo awako far moro than my
Ulnoss. Indeed, the former quite drove
the latter away.
Catherlno and I met at breakfast,
but she made lio mention of having
been out during 'tho night, and I con
cluded not to say anything about hav
ing been 111. It occurred to mo that I
had better change my quarters, nnd
after a few days I said to her that I
thought I had trespassed upon her
kindness quite long enough and I
would go and visit several pensions, of
which I had n list, with a view to
moving.
I was much surprised at tho troubled
look that came over her face at my an
nouncement. She asked what she had
flono to offend me, and when I replied
thnt sho had done nothing she said that
must not think of leaving her till I
left St. Petersburg. She seemed so
nverse to my going that I told her I
would remain awhile longer. She asked
how long, nnd I put her off by replying
a week or two, perhaps longer. This
Beemod to satisfy her, and I thought I
saw her draw a sigh of relief.
One morning Catherine did not ap
pear at breakfast. At this meal, though
it was a light one, sho was very regu
lar, nnd I wns somewhat surprised. I
went to her room and knocked. Re
ceiving no reply, I opened the door.
Tho bed had not been slept In, but the
chamber was disarranged, as though
tho occupant had left it hastily. I
asked the servants where was their
mistress. They knew no moro than I,
and they did not seem to care since
their wages had been paid up to the
end of tho present month.
After I had eaten my breakfast I
went to a boudoir adjoining my bed
room to got some money which I kept
In n desk there. Pulling out n drawer,
I camo upon a roll of bills (exactly GO
rubles) that I had paid Catherlno tho
evening before for board and lodging.
Surprised, I pulled out other drawers
and on opening the ono In which I kept
my passport found It missing.
I wns taken quite nback. I had never
dreaded to lose my money, for if I did
I could get moro, but slnco coming to
Russia I had not relished the idea of
losing my passport. I questioned the
servants, but they wero stupid crea
tures and could suggest no explanation.
felt nssured that neither of them
had taken It, for If they had cared to
take anything they could have had
money.
I Involuntarily turned to Catherine
ns tho person most likely to have taken
my passport. But why? And why had
she left the money I had paid her in
my desk? I was all at sea with re
gard to the matter. I went to a win
dow and stood looking out, musing.
Knots' of persons wero standing about
talking earnestly with ono another, as
though something had happened or
was about to happen. I sent a servant
out to buy a morning journal, but there
was nothing In It of an unusual nw
ture.
Calling a drosky, I drove to tho Amer
ican embassy and reported that my
passport had been stolen. The young
man to whom I made tho statement
took down my name, whore I lived and
all about mo that I would toll him and
told me that he would send me a pa
per to tako the passport's place. As
I wns about to go away I asked if
anything unusual had happened. He
called me into his office and, after
shutting tho door, said in a low voice
that an attempt had been made tho
night before to assassinate a minister
In his bed, but it had proved a failure,
Ho had only been severely wounded.
When I nsked if tho assassin had been
caught he said "No."
Catherlno did not appear, and after
lunch I wont out and engaged rooms at
a pension, removing my baggage the
same evening. I loft word with the
servants that if their mistress returned
to tell her that I had gone and give her
my address. I was terribly uneasy for
several days. I could explain nothing
ns to Catherine's action and feared
that I had been Involved In some mys
torlous plot ngalnst tho government
Indeed, she might be connected with
tho one to assassinate tho minister.
A week after Catherine's disappear
anco one morning on arriving and go
ing to my dresser there lay my pass
port
"Great heavens!" I exclaimed. "Will
these mysteries nover ceaso? Surely 1
nm in danger. I shall uso this docu
ment to get out of Russia as soon as
possible."
That very night I took a train for tho
west. When I reached the border,
where tho passports aro taken from tho
passengers for examination mine wns
kept a long whllo. When It was re
turned to mo I wns asked a great
many questions. Fearing trouble, I
gavo no moro information about my
story in Russia than I could help. Fi
nally tho officer, handing me tho pass
port, left me, and I suspected that tho
officials fancied that they had seen It
not long before. Howover, I got away
from tho czar's dominions safely and
have never sinco had a desire to return
to them.
It was a year later when In a store
on Oxford street In London, standing
at a glovo counter, I happened to look
up at a lady standing beside me. Sho
looked at mo at tho eamo time. She
was Catherine.
Sho turned deadly palo and started to
walk away, but stopped, turned again
and put out her hand to mo.
That night wo met whero I do not
caro to say, and what sho told me I
will not repeat except that sho had
appropriated my passport as a means
of leaving Russia. Sho wns going to
St. Petersburg when I first saw her for
n purpose which would necessitate her
sudden night Noticing that sho and I
would pass under ono description, she
bad Invited mo to stay with her for the
purpose of using my passport Sho
was tho principal actor In a plot In
which a number of revolutionists were
Involved. They provided her apart
ments for hor and had hurried her out
of St Petersburg, but with my pass
port. From London I salted for America,
and I never have seen Catherine since.

Like many of our old favorites, the inspiration for this one came on the
epur of the moment. The author, Mr. Woodwork, the poet, was at tho
time living in N. Y. City. One warm day ho came into his home, poured
and eagerly drank a glass of water, and as he set down the glass, with a
smack of his lips, said: "That is very refreshing, but how much more
so would it be to take a good long drink from the old oaken bucket I left
hanging in my father's well at home." "Selim," said his wife, "wouldn't
that be a pretty fair subject for a poem?" Whereupon Mr. Woodworth
seized his pen, and as tiic home of his childhood rose vividly before his
mind's eye, he wrote the now familiar sons which became known all over
the world.
