ANOTHER ATTEMPT
To KILL THE CAR

st. Petersburg, Nov 10.-What is
believed to have been carefully con,
ceived plot to take the life of EN-
peror Nicholas while en- route from
Peterhof to the winter palace at
Tsarskoe-Selo Saturday, was frustrat
ed by the vigilance of railway
guarGs. Early in the morning the
guard discovered six men trying tc
cut the wire of semaphore sigma
at Ligovo station at the junction
Of the railroads to Peterhof and the
Tsarskoe-Selo. The guard attempt
ed to arrest the men but was fired
upon and wounded. The shots, how
ever, aroused the officers and guards
at the station, and several volleys
were exchanged between the outlaws
and the soldiers, the former escap
ing without injury.
The police profess to be unable t.
understand the attempt to cut the
semaphore, as such an act could hard
ly work any harm to the imperial
train, which was due to pass a few
hours later. 1t is generally believed
however, that the outlaws intended
to prevent the use of the signal
with the object of bringing the train
to stop at that point. No arrests
were made.

tire year OF school work
At years of age he delighted to
read to his grandmother while she
held the book. He slid glibly over the
longest words in the book and no Bib
lical common name was beyond his
powers of pronunciation. He would
listen to stories read aloud at years
of age and then repeat them almost
verbatim.

Shut out from sports that would de-
light other boys for the past four
years. undergoing n severe surgical
operation last year and racked with
pain most OF the time. the boy pursued
his school work at home against the

came this fall for him TO enter school
