SLAV TYRANT KILLED
GRAND DUKE SERGIUS ASSAS-
SlNATED AT MOSCOW.
Two Men Throw a Bomb Under His
Carriage, Violent Explosion Fol-
lows and the Czar's Uncle Is Picked
pDead-Assassins Arrested.

Grand Duke Serg1us, uncle of Car
Nicholas H., and branded as "Russias
evil genius" was assassinated at
Moscow on Friday. He was killed
by a bomb which was hurled beneath
his carriage as he was driving through
the Nicolski gate Of the kremlin. The
great Slav tyrant was literally blown
to bits His body was terribly man
gled. The carriage was blown to frag-
ments of shattered wood. The bomb
was thrown by one of two men who
were in cabs. The instrument Of death
was hurled just as their vehicles
came close to the Grand Dukes car
rage. Both men were themselves in
jured by the terrific explosion of the
deadly bomb. Soldiers and police eff
fected their arrest, the asSasSins drip
ping with blood from their wounds rs
they were hurried away to prison.
While soldiers, hurried from the
Kremlin courts, formed a Gordon
about the bloody spectacle throngs Of
citizens charged the troops again and
again, shouting: Down with the OPP
pressorw The whole city seemed on
the brink of bloody uprising. Sergius'
assassination has Ioosed the spirit of
anarchy which his oppression and
brutal tactics as Governor General Of
Moscow aided so much to develop. He
pain sentence of death to the Nihilists
who long ago branded him for assas-
sination.
Grand Duke Sergius, seated in his
carriage, was driving from the historl-
cal museum to the Kremlin Palace.
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1905-02-24

The royal carriage had just passed
the law courts and was approaching
the Nicolski gate, when two cabs,
driven at top speed, suddenly Whirled
along in the wake of the royal equip
age. The cabs rapidly overlook the
Dukes conveyance, attracting niue
attention, however. Just as the two
cabs were abreast the Dukes car
rage the bomb was thrown.
The deadly missile fell just be-
meath the royal carriage, eXplod-
ing almost the instant it touched
the ground. The roar was deafenlnS.
Police and soldiery reached the scene
to find the two men who are charged
with hurting the bomb wounded. A
mass of twisted, shattered wreckage
was all that remained of the Grand
Dukes conveyance, splinters OF wood
and bits of steel having pierced his
mangled, torn body.
The Kremlin stands high above the
remainder of the city, and the explo-
sion of the bomb, spreading its death
and destruction, seemed TO rouse
Moscow from end to end. Street
crowds formed in an instant, as If by
magic Strikers and workmen fought
the notice and, hearing that death had
come to their "evil genius" shouted
in clorification and made threats or
attempting the delivery Of the assas-
sins. Through street after street riot
RON 90 the news of the assassination
spread.
Troops were deployed along every
onnroach to beat back the mobs. Ar
rests were made wholesale from the
first. Charges are made by the police
that students were behind the assas-
sination conspiracy.
Four times within few months
Sergius' life has been attempted. He
was last shot at in the railway sta
ton at Moscow, being then in COM
pany with General Trepof. Further
oppression followed this last attempt
on his life This served to fan the
hotbed OF anarchy that has formed
at Moscow during Sergius' regime
there.
An era Of bomb throwing, having for
its ultimate the extinction of the en-
tire house Of the royal Romanoffs and
ending with the execution of the Car,
Is the program which the terrorists
have outlined to follow the assassina-
Eon of Grand Duke Sergius.

died the richest of the grand dukes. just
as he had lived the most vicious. Many
peasant had his COW sold for taxes
had lost his chief means of life, so that
Sergius and his infamous associates
might the more gorgeously gid their
halls Of debauchery. The cruel, blind. in
aptitude of Sergius, the Governor, was
obscured in the minds of Russian people
by the abysmal depravity of Sergius, the
man. THAT Heliogabalus" was the COM
mon nickname Of the dead grand duke
The Grand Duchess Sergius was re-
spected throughout the empire and es-
pecially in the province of Moscow,
where she lived. During the last three
months she has received through the
mails number Of typewritten circulars
warning her not to appear in public
with the Grand Duke, as he was to be
assassinated. Fortunately for herself, it
appears that the duchess needed the
warning, for she was not driving with
her husband when he was killed.
Much as Russia feels relieved at the
suppression of the unspeakable Sergius,
correspondent says, it is doubtful
whether the empire has as great cause
for rejoicing as the wife of the dead
monster. She was fully aware of his
character, and for years the imperial
couple had not lived together, although
occupying the same palace.

ing been elected Governor Of Indiana
In 1887 and to Congress in 1912 from
the indianapolis district. The father
was q man of strong parts and Of illus
trious ancestry.
In his youthful days Lewis Wallace
displayed a tendency to neglect the OPP
portunities which his fathers position
gave him. He hated books and schools
and remained at school only so long as
1t was impossible to avoid. In this
manner he acquired but little real
foundational education.
Previous to the outbreak of the Mex
lean War Wallace had undertaken the
study of law. When the call for sol
diers came he was among the first to
enlist. He was not yet 20 years old,
but his services were so meritorious
that he came back from the war a lieu
tenant At the close of the war he
married. Susan A. Elston, widow Of
a pioneer of Crawsfordsville. Their
tastes were congenial, Mrs. Wallace
herself being an author who achieved
success in several books which she has
published.
Activity in the Civil War.
At the beginning Of the Civil War
he was appointed adjutant general Of
Indiana and soon after colonel Of the
Eleventh Indiana Volunteers. He
served in West Virginia and became
brigader general Of volunteers in Sep
TENDER, 1861. He commanded at Don
elson, was made major general, led a
division at Shiloh and prepared the
defense of Cincinnati in 1868, saving
the city from capture by General Ed
mund Kirby Smith. Later he saved
Washington from capture.
During the administra ton Of Presi-
dent Harrison he was appointed terri
torial governor of New Mexico. From
1881 to 1885 he was minister to Tur-
key. AS a diplomat he was eminently
successful.
'Ben-Hur" was written in 1880, af-
ter Robert G. Ingersoll had given Gen
eral Wallace his first impetus toward
acquiring the biblical lore necessary to
it's creation. His other works were:
Life Of General Benjamin Harrison"

Boyhood of Christ" 1889; "The Prince
of India" 1898; 1.-The Wooing of NAL

In defense of his mother William
Avis, Jr., a boy of IA years, shot and
killed his father at their home, near No
ble Ohio. The boys father, William
Avis, ST., was a large man and addicted
to drink, and when under the influence
Of liquor became brutal to his wife and
children, of whom there were five. he
had frequently beaten his wife, but she
always refused to prosecute him, the
husband when he sobered up promising
never to treat her so again. The other
afternoon he came home drunk and at
once began to abuse his wife and chill
dren, finally Selling the woman and begin
ming to beat her. The 14-year-old lad,
Will, demonstrated, but the father paid
no heed. Then the lad told him II he
did not stop he would shoot him. Suit
ing the action to the word, he ran into an
adjoining room and got a shotgun. The
father, in his drunken frenzy, hurled the
woman to the floor and turned toward
the boy, who fired. The man fell to the
floor mortally wounded and died in
short time. The boy ran for q doctor
after he saw what he had done, but his
father was dead when medical aid came.
The neighbors justify the shooting, claim
ing that Avis had reached the limit in
abuse of his family.

Career of Oppression Named Him as

No member of the royal family of Rus
STA was more hated and feared than
Grand Duke Sergius who met his fate at
the hands of an assassin. The hatred
was not confined to the middle and lower
classes. 1t extended to the nobility, and
even found it's way to the Cars house
hold. He was called "Russia's evil
genius and was charged by the Cars
friends and foes alike with being the
present cause Of Russia's political woes
and troubles.
Of all the grand ducal party Sergius
was the most hated, feared and loathed
by the Russian people. AS Governor
General of Moscow, his ruthless tyranny
and harshness were equaled only by his
inordinate capacity for grating. For
many years his arm has been in the pub

General Law Wallace, author or the
great "Ben-Hur," died Wednesday
evening, shortly after 8 o'clock at his
home in Charlottesville, Ind.
General Wallace's death marked re-
lease from suffering protracted over
several months of time. An attack OF
stomach trouble undermined his ro-
bust health and for three years he had
been suffering a decline. All his life
a man of unusual vigor, both mental
and physical, the strain Of an aggra-
waited attack Of indigestion told severe
lv on him during the last few weeks
and he became so emaciated that his
appearance ala rmed his friends. His
seventy eight years gave little encour-
agement for his recovery, and after
brave struggle the lawyer, soldier,
diplomat and author passed away.
During his long period of illness, and
even toward his last moments, General
Wallace with steady hand and clear
brain worked on his memoirs, a labor
he had been following for some years.

Lewis Wallace was born in Brook

was entitled to the distinction which
