Suspicious as he was of every- thing and everyone in Prince Paul's house, the thought of polson never entered Rasputin's mind. Quieting down a little, he took another cake from the terrified waiter's tray and began munching upon it.

Paul, who had caught sight of him biting into the cake as they came through the doorway, smiled maliciously and bowed.
One of the paid guards who had found Paul and Dr. Remezor came forward. In his hand he held a heavy service revolver. He handed it to Rasputin.
With a wordless yell of rage. Paul Hung himself upon the man, seized him by the coat collar and dragged him through the window, Then, flinging Rasputin into the snow, he locked the cellar window We found this on the younger | 10 bar pursuit for a few moments. prisoner," he said.
