George Kennan needs 10 introduction
to Sacramento people. The Congrega-
tional Church was inadequate to the de-
mand for seats on the occasion of his
former lecture here. and probably will
be again. OF this particular lecture the
New York Times says:
"The lecture was just what 1t purported
TO Do-a running account OF camp life
IN Siberia and associations with it's
natlves-and was given in 50 happy a
manner that the two hours devoted to it
passed very quickly, and without the
slightest sign OF a tired feoiing' on the
part OF tho audience. Mr.. kenuau is an
agreeable speaker, has q fine command
OF language, his enuEClation is refresh
lngly distinct, and he interests from the
very start. When the people left the
church at the close of the lecture a large
majority OF them would have gladly
fingered longer to listen 10 Mr.. kennan' s
fascinating talk concerning the vast and
comparatively unknown country wGero
he spent so many months. The lecture
was bright and taking rom beginning to
end. 1t aDOundei in valuable iuiOrma-
ton concerning the Siberian and KANT
chatkan region and people, and was inter-
spersed HDeralIy with u wholesome
humor that the audience were not slow

VERY BOLD ATTEMPT AT ROBBERY.
Three Men Attack Fred HoIzhauser's
House.
They Were Driven Of by Shot From
Pistol-One Pretended TO
be Drunk,

The neighborhood of Sixteenth and r
streets was alive with excitement early
last evening. The report of a revolver
and loud cries for help caused general
turnout on the part OF the residents in
that vicinity with firearms loaded for
bear or burglars.
Investigation disclosed the fact that
bold attempt at burglary had been made
on the residence Of Fred uolzhauser, on
Il street, between Sixteenth and Seven
teenth.
HolZhouser is the owner of some valu-
able downtown property, and the would
be thieves had been led TO suppose that
he had collected his rents yesterday.
Acting on this supposition, they boldly
walked up on the porch Of the dwelling
and raped at the door. But Holzhauser
had learned caution through a previous
experience, received nearly year ago,
and he demanded to know the names Of
the men.
The thieves then attempted to frighten
him by threat, but the old man threw I'D
window and shouted for help, at the
same time dIscharging his revolver at the
rasCalS.
a neighbor named Joseph Gardner was
the hrsI to arrive at Holzhauser's house.
lie was armed with a ouble-barreled
shotgun loaded with buckshot. Gardner
discovered man lying on the steps who
seemed to be under the influence of
liquor, and was with difficulty prevented
from presenting him with a load OF an
other kind, and OF heavier stuff.
The patrol wagon was dispatched to the
neIgnDorhoOd IL response To telephone
call, but before its arrival the thieves had
disappeared.
They arc known, however, and will
probably be landed in durance before to-
NIGHT.
