The assassin was 9hrown to the ground
and stunned by the force of the explosion,
but he quickly arose and ran toward . the
gate lrying to escape. His haste and the
blood streaming from his face where he
had been wounded by fragments of the
bomb attracted the attention of a sergeant
of police who seized him before he could
draw his revolver. The man did not deuy

its success. He expressed his satisfaction
that he had been able to kill the grand duke
without involving the Duchess Elizabeth,
his wife. At the Jail his papers were found
to be forged.

AT the Methodist church last Sunday
morning, Rev. D. M. Litaker, the pas

Hendersonville, and he predicted that
before long there would be a reaction
from indifference and %wOrldiness here,
a great spiritual awakening taking its
place. He believes that the churches
of the town must and will lead in any

According to later details Grand Duke
Sergius, who generally was accompanied
by his wife, when out driving, was on this
occasion going to his private Russian bath
in his old official residence In Tyelskaia
street. The vehicle in which he rode was
a plain, shabby closed carriage such as
would not BIZ likely to attract attention. 1t
was followed by detectives in a couple of
cabs. The grand duke was driven rapidly,
aud was half way across the square be-
tween the great bell tower and the
Nicholas gate when the bomb was thrown
beneath his carriage, where it exploded,
literally demolishing the vehicle, killing
the grand duke and fatally mjnring his
driver.
Only actual witnesses of the assassina-
ton were a couple of policemen on beat in
the vicinity.
1t still appears to be uncertain whether
the assassin was in a sleigh or hiding in
the tunnel beneath the Nicholas tower.
A few people who had been attracted by
the explosion made their way inside the
Kremlin before the police could close the
gates, but they were speedily elected. The
body of Grand Duke Sergius was taken by
way of a private dof Monastery. Priests
will pray there throughout the night and
officers and aides-de-camp Will keep vigil
over the body.
