srEUBENvILLE

SrEUBENvILLE, o., October 1.-The
! outlook now is that Steubenville at least
stands an even chance with Springfield or
any other place for the location of the Py-
| than Home. The members OF the Board
of Directors selected by the Grand Lodge
of Ohio TO locate the Home. who were here
on the 18th of September on their tour OF
inspection of the sites offered, were aston
ished at the site offered by Steuben Lodge
No. l. They were almost unanimous IN
saying that the Beatty property, Wnlcn Is
offered. is one of the handsomest and most
convenient for the purpose and the impress
sion left then upon the members OF the
committee who were offering the site 10
behalf Of Steuben Lodge was that Steuo-
enville was right in it and any other com.
petitor would have TO get up and hustle II
it wanted TO secure the Home. Since then
nothing has been heard from the Board eX-
cept that it would hold meeting last week.
]. G. Gever, Judge OF the Common Pleas
Court of Miami county, q member
Of the Board Of Directors, was un-
able TO be here with the balance
of the Board and visited Steubenville on
FRIDAY OF this week. He was taken IN
charge by the home committee and SHOWN
the advantages Of this city and also the
location which was offered. He, too, was
pleased with the place, recognizing Al once
that Il was well adapted for Home An
argument used against Steubenvilie rs
location is that il is at one end OF the state.
To overcome this Il is advanced 70 the
Board of Directors that this is near the
center of Ohio. Western Pennsylvania and
West virginia: that neither West Nr-
GINA or Pennsylvania has Home ana
that they would readily join with OHIO IN
the support Of one at this point. This idea
made a very favorable impression on the
Directors and will have considerable IN
determining the location, which decision
will likely be made in a short time. Mean
time the fact that the Board thought tnat
Judge Geyer should make personal IN
spection Of our site is evidence that the
members have some thought OF Iocaung
the Home here.
See the excitement and hubbub made
about the Stringer-Brinkman marriage at
Toronto has come to an end, the last efort
made by the sensationRlists being TO show
that neither Miss Stringer or Miss Brink
man was of sound mind. No one now at
tempts to deny that both are females and
the story circulated that Miss Brinkman
was about TO become a mother is now ad-
mitted to be incorrect The version OF the
whole affair in last Sundays REGISTER
that the two women had taken liking Tor
that they could best do this by getting mar
ried was correct. After all that has been
said about the Columbus priest visiting To-
ronto and forcing Miss Stringer TO marry
Miss Brinkman not single person can be
found who ever saw the priest He must
have kept awful shady while in pursuit OF
his mission.
