Czar Alarmed By Silent Morning Incident At Winter Palace
Le Voltaire of Paris reports a sensational tale from St Petersburg alleging a morning break in at the czar’s imperial bedroom. A favored servant entered, was challenged by a revolver shot, and the wounded man died soon after. The court kept the event secret amid fears of treason and a growing czar’s terror.

Old Boston Courtroom Tale Of Alibis And Mistaken Identity
In a superior criminal court Judge Wilkinson hears two youths charged with larceny from the person. A Philadelphia affidavit to prove an alibi is discredited on cross examination. District Attorney Stevens and defense counsel Morris trade stories of mistaken identity and counterfeit alibis including a Salem liquor case. The court entertains, and the narrative spans anecdotes from Boston to New York with Shadrack and Morris figures, ending with a note on Harry Hill’s autobiography in the New York Sunday Mercury.
