"What marvel is this?" he cried more than once. And why did Emilie write to him? She had made an appointment and not come! He took out her letter, turned it over in his hands, sniffed it: it smelt of tobacco and in one place he noticed a correction. But what could he deduce from that? And was it possible that Madame Fritsche knew nothing about it? And she.... Who was she? Yes, who was she?
Madame Fritsche greeted him as she had done the day before and as though she had conspired with him in a plan of deception, informed him again that Emilie had gone out for a short time and asked him to wait. Kuzma Vassilyevitch nodded in token of assent and sat down on a chair. Madame Fritsche smiled again, that is, showed her yellow tusks and withdrew without offering him any chocolate.
You saw nothing! And that cap is mine." "How is that?" "Why, just that. I wear it for dressing up.... Yes, it is mine, und Punctum." "Who brought you the bundle, then?" Emilie made no answer and, pouting, followed Madame Fritsche out of the room. Kuzma Vassilyevitch laughed, took the cards, and all evil thoughts immediately slipped out of his mind. But they came back to him that very day.
Multiple Pupils. More than one pupil in the eye has often been noticed, and as many as six have been seen. They may be congenital or due to some pathologic disturbance after birth. Marcellus Donatus speaks of two pupils in one eye. Beer, Fritsche, and Heuermann are among the older writers who have noticed supernumerary pupils.
He heard Colibri run up to it at once.... The key clicked in the lock. There was no one in Madame Fritsche's drawing-room. Kuzma Vassilyevitch made his way to the passage at once. He did not want to meet Emilie. Madame Fritsche met him on the steps. "Ah, you are going, Mr. Lieutenant?" she said, with the same affected and sinister smile. "You won't wait for Emilie?"
Instances of allotropy in pure metals are: Bolley's lead, which oxidizes readily in air; Schutzenberger's copper; Fritsche' tin, which falls to powder when exposed to exceptionally cold winter; Gore's antimony; Graham's palladium and allotropic nickel.
Kuzma Vassilyevitch was followed into the room by the old woman in the red dress, whom he had noticed at the gate, and who turned out to be a very unprepossessing Jewess with sullen pig-like eyes and a grey moustache over her puffy upper lip. Emilie indicated her to Kuzma Vassilyevitch and said: "This is my aunt, Madame Fritsche."
And the old lady, Madame Fritsche, is your aunt, too?" "Yes ... aunt." "Hm! You don't seem to understand Russian very well. What's your name, allow me to ask?" "Colibri." "What?" "Colibri." "Colibri! That's an out-of-the-way name! There are insects like that in Africa, if I remember right?" Colibri gave a short, queer laugh ... like a clink of glass in her throat.
