CHAPTER VTTI. *
HE Wow which had struck
Michael Strogoff was not
mortal. By swimming In
' a manner by which he
had effectually concealed
himself be bad reached
the right bank, where be
{ell exhausted among the bushes.
When be recovered his senses, he
found himself In the cabin of a mnjlk,
svho bad picked bfm up and cared for
him and to whom he owed his life.
For bow long it time had hefbeen the
guest of this brave Siberian? He could
not guess, but when be opened his eyes
he saw the handsome bearded face
ccr dressed In a very simple uniform.
Although he glanced rapidly from one
side to the other, he could not have
seen Michael Strogoff owing to his pre-
cipitous retreat.
The detachment went at full trot into
the narrow street. Neither the officer
nor his escort concerned themselves
about the inhabitants. Several unlucky
ones had scarcely time to make way
for their passage. There were, there-
fore, a fewr half stilled cries, to which
tbethnists of the lance gave an Instant,
re'jfiy, and the street was Immediately
cleared.
When the escort had disappeared.

my cabin.“
And the mujik related to Michael
Strogoff the different lucidc-nts of the
struggle which he had witnessed—the
attack upon the ferry by the Tartar
boats, the pillage of the tarantass and
the masaacre-of the boatmen.
But Michael Strogoff listened no lon-
ger, and, slipping his hand under his
garment, befelt. the imperial letter still
secured is his breast.
He breathed a sigh of relief. But that
was not all,
’ “A young girl accompanied me," said
he.
“They have not killed her,” replied
the mujik, anticipating the anxiety
ViilcU he read In the ctrce of his guest.
“They have carried her-^pff In their
boat, and have continued the descent of
the Irtish. Ifr is only one prisoner more
ta join so many others which they arc
tgktug to Tomsk.” \
Michael Strogoff was unable to reply,
lie pressed bis hand upon his heart to
restrain Its beating. *
But, notwithstanding these many
trials, the sentiment of duty mastered
bis whole soul. *
lie remembered the errand which ha
bad undertaken. Indeed never by day
or night was his emperor's mission for
eveu a moment absent from his .mind.
Ns* the presence of the greatest dan-
ger, the tortures of hunger and thirst,
the weariness cf excessive fatigue, not
•ven all combined could cause him to
forget that a momentous matter was
intrusted to bis courage, his zeal, his
and his endurance. Michael

“I have no longer the

“It Is Ivan Ogareff,” replied the Sibe-
rian, but In a deep voice which breath-
ed hatred. ,
“He!" cried Michael Strogoff, from
whom the word escaped with an accent
of fury which he could not conquer.
He had just recognized In this officer
the traveler who had struck him at the
posting house of Icblm. and, although
he had only caught a glimpse of him, it
burst upon his mind at the same time
that this traveler was the old Zingari
whose words he had overheard in the
market place of Nijnl Novgorod.
The mujik and Michael resumed their
way apd arrived at the posting house.
To leave Omsk by one of the breaches
would not be difficult after nightfall.
As for purchasing a carriage to replace
the tarantass, that was impossible.
There was none to he let or sold. But
what want had Michael Strogoff now
for a carslage? Was he not alone, alas?
A horse would suffice him. and, very
fortunately, a horse could be had. It
was an animal of mettle, capable of
enduring much fatigue, and Michael
Strogoff, accomplished horseman as he
was, could make good use of it.
The horse cost a high price, and a
few moments later Michael was ready
to stark It was-then 4 o’clock in the
afternoon.
Michael Strogoff. compelled to wait
till nightfall in order to pass the forti-
fications, but not desiring to show him-
lelf in the stteets of Omsk, remained in
the posting house and there partook of
food.
There was a great crowd in the pub-
; lie room, it being the resort of numbers
of the anxious Inhabitants, who at this
eventful period collected there to ob-
tain news. They were talking of the
expected arrival of a corps of Musco-
vite troops, not at Omsk, but at Tomsk,
a corps Intended to recapture that town
from the Tartars of Foofar-Kaho.
Michael Strogoff lent an attentive ear
to all that wqs said, but took no part
in*lhe conversation.
Suddenly a cry made him tremble, a
cry which penetrated to the depths of
his soul, and these two words, so to
speak, rushed into bis ear:
“My son!”
His mother, the old woman Marfa,
was before him! Trembling, she smil-
ed upon him. She stretched forth her
anus to him. Michael Strogoff arose.
He was about to throw himself—
The thought of duty, the serious dan-
ger for his mother and himself in this
unfortunate meeting, suddenly stopped
him, and such was his command over
himself that not ft muscle of his face
moved.
There were twenty people in the pub-
lic room. Among them were perhaps
spies, and was it not known in the
town that the son of Marfa Strogoff
belonged to the corps of the couriers of
the czar? v
Michael Strogoff did not move.
’ “Michael!” cried his mother.
“Who are you, my good lady?” Mi-
chael Strogoff stammered, unable to
speak in his usual Arm tone.
"Who am I, thou askest? Dost thou
no longer know thy mother?”
“You are mistaken,” coldly replied
Michael Strogoff. “A resemblance de-
ceives you.”
The old Marfa went up to him and,
looking straight into his eyes, said:
“Thou art not the son of Peter and
Marfa Strogoff?”
Michael Strogoff would have given
his life to have locked bis mother in bis
arms, but if he yielded It was all over
.with him, with her, with bis mission,
with his oath! Completely master of
himself, he closed bis eyes in order not
to see the inexpressible anguish which
agitated the revered countenance of his
mother. He drew back his hands in
ortler nof to touch those trembling
bands which sought him.
“I do not know, in truth, what it is
you say, my good womau,” he replied,
stepping back.
Michael!” again cried bis aged moth-

Ivan Ogareff, suspecting the truth, In-
terrogated the old Siberian woman.
"Thy name?” he asked in a rough
voice.
‘‘Marfa Strogoff.”
“Thou hast a son?”
“Yes.” <.
“Ho Is a courier of the 2zart"
“Yes.”
“Where is ha?” .a&MSk i
t? <
“At Moscow.”
“Thou hast heard no news of him?”.
“No news.”
“Since how long?”
“Since two months.”
“Who, then, was that young man
whom thou didst call thy son a few
moments ago at the posting house?”
“A young Siberian whom I took for
him,” replied Marfa Strogoff. “This is
the tenth man in whom I have thought
I recognized ray son since the town has
been so full of strangers. I think I see
him everywhere.”
“So this young man was not Michael
Strogoff?”
“It was not Michael Strogoff.”
“Dost thou know, old woman, that I
can torture thee until thou avowest the
truth?”
"I have spoken the truth, and torture
will not cause me to alter my words In
any way."
“This Siberian was not Michael Stro-
goff?” asked a second time Ivan Oga-
reff.
“No, It was not he,” replied a second
time M_arfa Strogoff. “Do you think
that for anything In the world I would
deny a son whom God has given me?”
Ivan Ogareff regarded with an evil
eye the old woman 'who had braved
him to the face. He did not doubt but
that she had recognized her son In this
young Siberian. Now, if this son had
first renounced his^mother and if his
mother renounced him in her turn It
could oecur only from the most weighty
motive. N
Every circumstance went to confirm
bla suspicions. If he could but lay his
band upon this pretended merchant of
Irkutsk and strip off his disguise, would
he not find a treasure indeed? Would
not his superiors well reward his adroit-
ness and his -success? Would not the
czar of Russia scowl with rage when
he learned that his courier was In the
hands of his foes? f
Ivan Ogareff had therefore no donbt
that the pretended Nicholas Korpanoff
was Michael Strogoff, courier «of the
czar, seeking concealment under a false
name and charged with some mission
which it would have been important
for him to know. He therefore at once
gava orders for bis pursuit. Then he
said:
“Let this woman be conducted to
Tomsk,” returning toward Marfa Stro-
goff.
And while the soldiers brutally drag-
ged her along be added between his
teeth:
“When the moment arrives, I shall
know how to make her speak, this old
sorceress!”

echoed:

Michael Strogoff, by a desperate ef-
fort, had gone. He did not see his bid
mother, who bad fallen back almost in
animate upon a bench. But when the
postmaster hastened to assist her the
aged woman raised herself. Suddenly
a thought occurred to her. She denied

Less than ten minutes afterward a
Tartar officer appeared in the posting
house.

“It is I,” replied the old woman in a
tone so calm and with a face so trau-
quil that those who had witnessed tlie j

FERRY'S
"Wben John Jamisoo, the fa-
mous Dnblin whisky manufactur-
er, decided to send his daughter
Annie to Italy to continue her
musical studies, he became un-
consciously a maker of history,
for in the course of time as the
result of bis act, the girl met and
married Gniseppe Marconi and to.
this Irish-Italian anion there was
born a son wbo is now known to
all the world as one of the great-
est. scientists and inventors of his
time.
Annie Jamison was a beautiful,
adventnrsome girl in her teens.
Her family was well to do and
she bad everything in the way of
education and training that money
could buy and Dublin coaid offer.
Her father was the founder of the
house, bo far as the business
which still bears his name was
concerned, bat her ancestry ex-
tended back into the times of
Scotland’s greatest era and her
forbears were people of inflaenoe
and power.
Marconi’s mother has been of
more actual, though indirect, help
to him than can be told. She it
was who encouraged him is his
earliest efforts. The boy attend-
ed school altogether not more
than three or four years. It fell
tothe lot his mother to teach him
and from her he learned to speak
the Euglish language, to play the
piano and to get a start in the
varied accomplishments which
mark him now as a many sided
man. »
Mrs. Marconi prefers to hide
herself behind her son and to be
known simply as his mother. Of
her courtship and marriage she
will say little, save that the for-
mer was a case of true love and
the latter of pare domestic happi-
ness. She went to Italy, as has
been said, to continue her music
under better instructors than she
could have secured at home, and
was daring her stay in Italy
.hat she met a dashing yonng
Italian. The two soon discover-
ed that they had a mutual liking
for outdoor sports; both rode well,
and the yonDg man was not long
in coming to the decision that he
preferred the Irish girl to any of
his own country. In addition there
was a very happy liking for intel-
lectual pleasures which they shar-
ed. The young man was of good
family, in possession of a large es-
tate near Bologna, the girl return-
ed bis eff-ctions—and the inevita-
ble happened.
From the birth of her elder boy
she has another son—Mrs. Mar-
coni devoted her life to his train-
ing. She took him with her
on her travels about Italy. and
he accompanied her on several
visits to her own people in Ire-
land and England. Wishing to
give him the advantage of some
training in English, she remained
with him for two years in Bedford,
where the boy attended a school
and learned his letters and num-
bers. When he bVgan to show
interest in chemistry aod elec-
tricity and to construct little in-,
strnments, she helped him, getting
books and periodicals that would
gaide him in a right way. It was
not strange, then that Gaglielmo
Marconi made such rapid progress
in his studies and became a fail
grown man in experience when he
was still a boy of 16. Money was
spent freely for him and every en-
couragement was given him in
his work.
It is often true of parents that
the larger thoughts and plans of
their children are suppressed with
ridicule and prohibition, bat this
condition was not trne of yonng
Marconi. He was allowed to
tarn one of the rooms in the house
into a laboratory and here he was
king of all he surveyed. From
early morning nntil late at n;ght
he was nudistnrbed, except by the
anxious mother who was always
on the lookout for any additional
comfort for him. Whenever he
worked ont of doors,'as he often
did, it> was his mother who met
him on his return and made him
change bis clothes and get proper
rest before taking np anything
else inside.
Between the mother and the.
son there is a strong bond of sym-
pathy and genuine love. Marconi

on her travels; now he t.«ke* h**r

him in London . when he is there

stations when his work takes him
there. She 'does not mind the

way places along the coast'Where
these stations are located, simply
because she prefers being with
her son to being any other place

Although Marconi is constantly
being invited to all sorts of social
fanotions and his mother with him,
both prefer to live quietly, within
themselves, so to speak. Ocoa-
siopally they go together to the
' heater or call on some friends or
relatives of the family, bat sim-
plicity marks their coarse wher-
ever they may be. Mrs. Marconi
is exceedingly modest and insists
on being regarded as an ordinary
woman. At any rate she is a wom-
an to deserve the praise of the
world, and that praise she receives
from all who know her.
