ITALIANS Do HONOR
TO NAPOLEON'S FOE
C0NTE De RUDIO GUEST AT
NOTABLE BANQUET
Was Saved from culllotine by Queen
Victorla's lntercesslon After HaV-
ing EndeaVored to Blow
Up Emperor

Seventy guests were present at the
banquet given at the Delmonica res
taurant yesterday afternoon by the
Dante Alighieri association in honor of
Conte Carlo Camille de Rudio, a re-
tired major of the United States
army. De Rudio is the man who in
shattered the carriage of Napoleon
III, killing ten persons and seriously
injuring Empress Eugene.
Many leaders of the Italian colony
in Los Angeles We're present at the
feast, and brief addresses were made
by some of the ablest Italians in
Southern California. The first toast
was by DR.. b. Sassella, who spoke in
the language of his country. He was
followed by Attorney H. w. Adams,
who spoke in English. Following Mr..
Adams, an address was delivered by
G.. Auclair, editor of L Union NoWelle,
who spoke in French. Other adj
dresses were made by e. Patrizi,
editor of the San Francisco Italia.
and n. Spozie, connected with the San
Francisco La VOce.
The man for whom the banquet was
given is one of the most interesting
figures of modern times. His two ac-
completes, Gomez and Orsini, were
beheaded, and only the Intervention
of Queen Victoria of England saved
De Rudio from the guillotine. He was
banished to Devils island, from which
he escaped, going to London, England.
From there he and his faithful wife,
with whom he lately celebrated their
silver wedding, came to America.
De Rudio came TO America in 1864,
bearing the highest recommendations
from Joseph Mazzini, who at that time
was in London. In America, De Rudio
met men in military life who recog-
nized his worth as a man and soldier.

THOUSANDS OF ELKS
COMING FROM IOWA
ANTLERED HOSTS ALREADY
PLANNING TRIP
Hawkeye State Alone Probably viii
Be Represented by Between Four
Thousand and Six Thou
sand Members

That Elks from the middle west will
come to Los Angeles by the thousands
next summer is indicated by the fol-
lowing from the Des Moines Register
and Leader:
If the plans of the leaders Of the
Iowa Elks are realized, special trains
will carry between 1900 and 5000 men,
bers of the order from the Hawkeye
state to California next summer. There
are II, 900 members of the order in the
state and it is now believed that half
of them can be prevailed upon to take
the long trip to the coast.
At a meeting of the state committee
Of the order of Elks in Des Moines
recently, plans were laid for the
transportation of the Iowa members
of the order to Los Angeles for the
national meeting to be held there next
July. Three special trains will be
chartered and will leave Omaha July
for the coast.
State President G. T. Reddick of
Iowa City and Secretary c. M. Myers
of Ottumwa were in the city all day
recently laying plans for the trip and
some great doings are being planned.
A special Pullman car will be taken
to each town in the state where there
is an Flks lodge from which a dele
CATION will go. On July Z these cars
will be picked up by the regular trains
and carried to Omaha, where all will
be coupled in three special trains for
the west.
The different trains will then pro-
coed at once to Colorado Springs and
then on to Salt LAKE. At Salt Lake
an organ recital will be given in the
Mormon tabernacle especially for the
entertainment of the members.
The Fifty-fourth regimental band of
Ottumwa will be taken with the trains
and music will be a feature of the
long trip to the coast. Each train will
be made up of a parlor car, buffet
car, dining car, library car and an
observation coach. Nothing will be
spared to make the trip interesting,
and already many of the Elks of the
state have declared their intention Of
going.
A low rate has been secured from
the Western Passenger association and
Mr.. Reddick and Mr.. Myers will go
to Chicago to complete the arrange
ments Coming back the trip will be
made by steamer from San Francisco
to Seattle and a few days will be spent
at the Yukon Seattle exposition The
party will then come home on the
Canadian Pacific through the Cana
dian Rockies and stops will be made
at all of the important places.

A. H. Nash, So years old, a street
preacher, was arrested in front of the

Jack had paid his way always. Out
of the poverty of his childhood he had
fought his way through the university.
After graduation he felt he must see
Europe and with the little accumula-
ton he had he crossed the pond"
trusting to good luck to get home
again. But. his trip of sightseeing
over. he found himself in Liverpool
without money and with no means of
getting any.
He thought he would just go down
to the steamship, go on board and see
how it would seem If only he were go
ing home.
AS he wandered over the big liner
his attention was attracted by a cry
ing baby. The mother was travelling
alone. and while she was attempting
to see to all the thousand and one de
tails incident to the beginning Of an
ocean trip the baby had resented the
neglect he felt he had received and
was crying. The mother was at her
wits end.
Jacks kind heart prompted him to
say: Let me take the baby, madam.
Perhaps I can keep him quiet until
your preparations are made
This request, SO unusual from a
stranger and especially from q man
stranger, naturally filed her with sur
prise. but she looked Jack squarely in
the eye for second and trusted him.
Il wish you would, she said.
Jacks care was extremely satisfac-
tory to his babyship and when, in q
half hour, the mother was ready to
reclaim her child she found. happy
baby cooling and trying to devour a
bunch of keys at one gulp.
She laughed as she took the young
ster and thanked Jack. Then she add
ed, quite in fun, IT wish you were GO
ing clear across"
Jack saw his opportunity. He said:
MADAM. I'm a college student, out Of
funds and longing for home. IL you
VIII pay my passage to America / will
take care Of your baby all the way
across"
His proposition was accepted, and he
kept his word. He is prominent law
yer now. and he looks back with con-
siderable amusement to his experience
in getting home from Europe.-Youth's

Do you believe that small fellows

just as cleyerly as heavyweight
wrestlers.
My weight is 140 pounds stripped,
and do not care to wrestle no man
who weighs 40 or so pounds more
