In the heart of tho Ural mountains, rhich divide Siberia from Russia, stand he largest sheet Iron works in the unl rerse. Owned and managed by the Rus lian government, they constitute an en tire city and aro fortified like a fort igainst the rest of tho world. Russian Bheet iron, aa every one mows, is the strongest and best pro luced by any nation, and the process of Its manufacture is jealously guarded by Ihe authorities. One who enters the lervice of the company never again sees Ihe outside world. Ho gives up every- Ihing—freedom, family, friends, all for Ihe sum of a few pitiful rubles a month Selivered wthere he chooses. He is there in tho works, but he might as well be in Ms grave. Not a word can bo obtained concerning him, and shonld ho live 20 rears after entering the servico or die the next day not even his family would be the wiser, unless the stoppage of tho monthly stipend revealed the fate of the man. Once in awhile one tries to es cape; not often, however, for they aro ilways caught and always shot—as a warning to others—for tho attempted treachery. It was a crisp October night in the lit tle village of Obvinsk, about 200 miles from the great iron works. The weather was sharp, the trees and vegetation turned to a reddish brown—all but tho lichens and mosses, which seemed to crouch into tho very bowlders in their effort to shield themselves from the keen wind, sweeping knifeliko from the snow covered Ural. Petroff Norvitski entered his poor hut as his wife Kartina placed their scant Bupper of dry bread and potatoes on the little fir table, on which flickered and flared a bit of candlo end stuck in a gourd for candlestick. "1 am tired through, wife," said he, "and will go to bed, bnt cheer up before I go; sunshine is always back of the clouds. True, the crops have failed and I can get no work, but tho Blessed Vir gin will surely Bee us through the win ter." And with a tender kiss to wifo and babies Petroff sought the rest he so much needed. Ho shut his eyes, but not to sleep, and only to turn over and over i:i his fevered brain the probability of sco- Ing liis family starve and freeze. lie was brighter, more hopeful, when ho rose next morning, but any one could have seen that his cheerfulness was mostly assumed. Eating his breakfast —one potato again—Petroff kissed tho babies more tenderly than usual, and Bvading his wife's questions as to where he was going ho bade her keep np her heart and once more left the house. But once out of sight of her eyes ho flung himself down by the roadside, and, strong man as he was. ho bowed his head in hia hands and sobbed like a child. Bnt Petroff was a sturdy fellow, and after a few moment given to uncontrol lable grief he wiped away his tears and itrode down the highway. From time to time he begged a bit of bread from a passing serf, and when nightfall settled over the valley crawled into a thicket and sunk into a heavy sleep. The sun was peeping bold and brassy over the Ural mountains before he awoke and stiff and sore began again his tramp to ward the iron works. It had crossed the meridian, the shadows were lengthen ing, and still not a morsel of food had passed hia lips this day, every one of whom ho had begged a bite needing it for their own uses. Suddenly to the right a gunshot sounded, and a ptarmigan fell within reach. "A providence for me!" cried Petroff, Joyously seizing and thrusting it under his jacket and looking about him to make sure that the sportsman had miss ed the effect of his shot. As soon as he dared he stopped, made a fire and cook ed tho bird, and though he ate it with out bread or salt it gave him strength to keep his way. Sleeping in the night air had stiffened and made his hones ache, so he had decided that he would not again try the thicket if ho could help it, and as night had come on dark and murky ho began to look about him for a place of shelter. Ho was then, though he did not know it, passing the estate of tho oelebrated Comto Romanoff. Looming through the darkness stood tho great tnrroted castle with its battle mented walls and close by the highway a barn, into which Potroff slipped throngh an open window and stretched himself on tho sweot smelling hay, his troubles for the time forgotten in slum ber. It was pitch dark and close on to mid night when the sound of voices roused him—suppressed voices talking in cau tious tones, which at once awakened his suspicions. Ho lay 6till nnd listen**!. "But this isn't the stable," a voice at the door murmured complniningly. "No, devil take it," replied another, "I took tho wrong turn; the stables are back of tho castle. Come on. Get threo of tho best horses and bring them to the gate by the lodge, a tidy addition, you know, to the ransom wo will get for the capture of Romanoff, tt is 19 o'clock now. Wo must be at the rendezvous by 8. Hurry; we have no time to lose here." Norvitski lav rtill till tho Round of their footsteps died iv tbe distance. Then be aroite and dropped from tho window by ' winch he had entered, hurried to the castle and rattled tho knockor vigorous ly. A servaufc respondod aud inquired what was wanted. '•Your master,"said PetrofJ. "I must lee him at once." "Return tomorrow," said the man. "The comte's abed, fatigued by hunt ma." "I must see him now, f tell yon," Po troff persisted. "It is life or death! Go, |s I bid you." Guessing from Norvitski's manner that tomething serious did domand his mas ter's attention, the servant obeyed, and Potroff five minutes later was entering the room where the comto, in dressing gown and slippers, sat upon the odgo of his bed sleepily rubbing his eyes and considerably exasperated at his inter rupted nap. "What do you want, fellow?" cried he angrily as Petroff entered. "What mean you by disturbing me at this unseemly horu-r "To seenro yonr safety, sir, perhaps," Potroff answered boldly, and in a few words told his story. Tho comto. when Petroff finished, was no longer fawning, but angry and alert. "Well," said he, "if that isn't impu dence I Once, some years ago, the Kroski pass brigands caught me and made mo pay a round price for freedom, but who would have dreamed of their venturing to the castlo to try the game again! This time, if I know myself, we'll turn tho tables!" And tho comte jerked tho bell. The same man that had answered PetrofTs knock and wakened the comte answered the summons and was told the details. "There's no use fousing the house, master," said he, "unless yon order it. Wo threo can manago them. They can get in only by the scullery windows, and we'll havo them when they enter tho honso." A plan arranged, they noiselessly start ed below stairs, tho comte carrying a lantern over which he had thrown a cloak to hide its rays. Taking their stand in cautions silence, they feverishly awaited events. As the castle clock struck 1, ao if it had been a signal, a file waa heard swiftly and nearly noiselessly cutting tho iron grating. In a Bhort time a section of grating was out, and a wolf like tread was heard in the darkness, followed quickly by another. As the muffled feet drew near the door leading above tho brigands found themselves suddenly coverod with light and the yawning muzzles of three cavalry pis tols. Resistance was useless. Three men were more than a match for two. They helplessly suffered thomselves to be bound, disarmed and thrown like a bun dle of fagots in the corner to await the arrival of tho officers the next morning. "Norvitski, my friend." ssid the comte, "you havo saved tri* life possibly and aro a rich man besides. Twenty, thou sand rnbles reward has been offered for tho capture of these men, dead or alive, two of the most desperate brigands and wretches that ever cursed Russia. Twen ty thousand rubles reward, of which you, Norvitski, shall have every kopeck. Why, man. what are you crying about?" "For joy, my lord," Petroff responded and breatjilessly told his sad Btory, "I could not see them Btarve, my wifo and babies, good comte," he cried. "1 was going to the iron works, bnt now, thanks to tho Blessed Virgin, 1 can re turn to my home, to Krvrtina. to the children, whom I never expected lo see again." "Exactly," said the comte, "and in ono of my finest sledges too." Tho astonishment of tho Villager! when this splendid equipage with fr.rs, footmen, outriders and jingling bells drew up to Norvitski's humble hut, and Norvitski himself, assisted by a foot man, got out —well, 1 leave you to imagine it, as well as Kartina's joy, who did hot dream where her husband had gone. The brigands were promptly exiled to Siberia, the reward paid in full, and to day if a happy man exists in Russia Petroff Norvitski is that one.—From the Russian. Cave Dwellers In Brooklyn. It is trno enough that one half of the world doesn't know how tho other half lives, and it is likely that some residents of tho Brooklyn heights are unaware of the cave dwellers who eat and sleep with in 50 feet of their back windows. In cut ting down the hill front to lay out Fnr man street a precipitous face of gravel was left, and instead of making an easy slope from tho crest of the heights to the water's edge the gravel was kept in place by a heavy retaining wall. This wall has been pierced in several places, however, so that it has become the front of a row of underground houses, veri table eaves that extend back for about HO feet into the hill, the lawns and gar dens of tho rich people overhead consti tuting their roofs. In these caves there are saloons, shops, storerooms and tene ments. They aro dark und rather damp, as they have no light or air except on tho street side.—New York Sun.
