NEW YORK. July 30.-There is little
doubt that the plot to Kill King Humbert
has been known for several months in the
Italian settlements around New York. II
was given worldwide publicity two weeks
ago by the suicide of an Anarchist in
Paterson, who claimed to hsve been chosen
by lot TO DO the killing. That his position
was known is proven by the fact that his
eompatriots were only prevented from giv4
ing him magnificent funeral by the

some lodge from some other state
wishes TO send brother here?"
There is a large surplus in the treas
nry Of the Ohio lodges now, and the
scheme to be sprung at the New Phila-
dclpha meeting is to take this money
and the bonus that would be offered by
the city securing the home, and build
ing place that would not only he an
honor to the Elks themselves, but TO
the Buckeye state as well.
The matter is being talked over at
all the Elks' meetings and was well
aired at the recent picnic held by the
local lodge at Minerva park. The Co
lumbus lodge being so well known all
over the state and the country for that
matter, was thought to be the proper
lodge to spring the plan at the state
convention.
The building would be large and COM
modious of course, as the Elks do not
have or build anything that is cheap,
and the grounds would be in keeping
with the structure. Not only this, but
n large fund could be raised from be-
'ncfits given in the various cities.
Whenever an Elks' benefit is given the
houses are always crowded as the best
talent in the land appears on the bills
and the maine Eiks guarantees that the
patrons will get their moneys worth.
Many of the members Of the Ohio
lodges who were kept from the Allan
tic City meeting have signiiied their
intentions of going to the state conven-
ton in a body, and it is highly proba-
bic that the matter of state home
will at that time be definitely settled.
Not only this but state delegates to the
next annual convention will probably
be chosen. F-2
When the matter of the national
home was up for discussion the follow
ing Ohio cities went after the place
'.hot foot:' Chillicothe, Hillsboro,
Springfield and Delaware. Each of
these places offered special induce
ments to secure the location of the
home at their place and would SO after
the state home just as hard.
