Entertainment.

The local lodge of the Modern
Woodmen had special entertainment
in their hall in the Klingman block

Over three hundred people had gath.

Two Men Suspected.
The military authorities are inclined
to believe that the incident was the
work Of two men, one of whom inserted
the missiles while the other trained the
gun. An eyewitness has reported that
ne had seen cannoneer carefully train
ing the gun, but this does not agree with
the statement made by Grand Duke
Sergius to a prominent military attache
that the gun must have been pointed
downward, as the charge struck the ice,
ricochetting, and two balls entering the
imperial pavilion. One ball also pierced
palace window, others striking the fa-
cade OF the palace or actually flying over
the palace and dropping around the
statue Of Alexander l. in the palace
