The young lady accepts his card, and later writes to him that if he wishes to prove his sincerity he will come and see her next day, prepared for anarchical deeds. Polidor, swathed in a cloak in the true conspirator's manner, duly makes the call, and finds that he has dropped into a den of genuine anarchists, who force a bomb into his hand and tell him that he must destroy the governor's palace if he wishes to gain the girl's hand. Polidor is desperately anxious to get rid of the explosive, but finds it a difficult matter, and is thrown out of hotels, restaurants, &c, when he unlocks and reveals the dangerous missile. Even at the police-station he is unwelcome and leaves hastily at the point of the superintendent's pistol. Finally, he drops the bomb, and is blown sky-high, but, falling, is caught by the telegraph wires, and philosophically lighting a cigarette, makes himself as easy as he can until assistance arrives.
