King GIumbert, a young anarchist
today fred three shots at King Vic.
tor Emmanuel as the king with
Queen Elena was going from the
palace to the Pantheon this morning
10 take part in a memorial service
for his father.
The procession was passing along
Via Lata, when three shots rang out.
Soldiers escorting the carriage i'm
mediately dashed forward and their
commander fell from his horse.
The wounded officer was removed
to one side by some Of his men, while
others dashed up to the carriage
where they found the king and
queen sitting calm and unmoved.
Meanwhile the crowd seized the
man who had fred the shot, and at
tempted to lynch him, handling him
SO roughly that he could scarcely
answer questions when rescued by
the police.
The procession moved on to the
Pantheon where the memorial SER
vice. was passed through without
further incident and the king learn
ed for the first time that the COM
mander Of his escort, Major Lang,
had been dangerously wounded. He
at once went to the hospital where
the major had been taken. He
travelled through the streets in an
open automobile, and showed no
signs of having passed through the
ordeal.
The assassin had been taken to
the nearest police station where he
said he was Antonio Dalba, stone
mason, aged 81. Vie declared that
he made the attempt on the life OF
the king as a protest against the or
ganisation of society All the cir
cumstanceo lead to the belief that
he was not concerned in any plot.
In all quarters of Rome demon
strations will be prepared to protest
against the outrage. whose effect has
been to increase the kings POPULAR
ity.
A most touching scene occurred
when the king and queen reached
the Pantheon There the dowager
Queen Margarita awaited them, but
they said nothing of the attempted
assassination. All assisted in the
service and at its close the king told
his mother Of the shooting. She ap-
peared stunned. then looked him
over to see that he had not been
hurt. Then she threw her arms
about his neck and kissed him re-
peatedly.

story of devotion and gratitude that
centers about Speaker Champ Clark
has Just come to light In this town by
the death Of Miss Fannie Hopkins. one
OF the best known women Of St

Mr.. Clark was first nominated for con-
gress. he made a speech In the little
French village Of Portage des Sioux,
on the Missouri river. Miss Hopkins
was then q resident of that place,
which had only 100 inhabitants. She
heard Mr.. Clark's speech, and became
his ardent admirer. Clark was defeat
ed in that campaign, but two years Ia
ter he again became the nominee. Miss
Hopkins thereupOn set to work to make
votes for him, and IT is said she had as
much to do with Mr.. Clarks carrying
that town as anyone. Ever since then
she has been working for Mr.. Clark
for president. Some weeks ago the
speaker learned that the old lady was
