Since then gambling has, it is claimed. been practically wiped out in Roslyn, and the movement now has the in- dorsem. nt and earnest support of the legit- imate business element. Much influence is to be brought to bear on the members-elect this fall to hive the measure given favor- able consideration.

Lccal Delegates on the Way-Import- ant Matter to Come Before the Body. A number of the members of the Wash- ington Lodge of the Benevolent and Pro- tective Order of Elks of this city are on their way to attend the convention of the Grand Lodge. *hich meets in Salt Lake City August 12 to 14, inclusive. Among those from the local lodge are Past Grand Exalted Ruler E. B. Hay and Past Ex- alted Rulers Joseph A. Burkhart and E. Shine. who are delegates from this city. It is stated that considerable rivalry ex- ists between Saratoga and Baltimore rela- tivea to securing the next convention of the Grand Lodge. and it is thought the decision as to the next meeting place will be deter- mined by a very close margin of votes. The Washington delegates, it is understood. will urge the claims of the monumental city for the convention of 11%Gu. One of the important matters that will come up before the convention in Salt Lake City will be the official announcement by the committee in charge of securing a home for aged Elks that the project has linally been realised. The securing of such a home has been for many years a cher- ishd plan of the order. The movement took definite shape only three years ago at the muting of the Grand Lodge held in St. Louis, when it was resolved that the Na- tional Elks' Home could and would be pro- vided. At that convention over $25,000 was pledged for the purpose. and the work was taken up in earnest by a committee spe- cially appointed for the furtherance of the plan. To obtain a suitable site for the home was a pro1.lem that entailed considerable trouble. OffE rs of sites came from almost (v# ry qiuartz r. and the committee was kept busy in the details of investigation and in- spection and travel. Sites were inspected at Springfield, Ohio: Hilishoro', Ohio; Col- orado Springs, Col.: Waukesha. Wis.; Cody. Wyo., and Fauruier White Sulphur Springs. Va. Location at Bedford City. The committee had about decided on pur- chasing a large hatel at the last-named place when the huilding was destroyed by tire. Finally a large hot- I was secured at Bedf ird Ci:. Va.. and the deal was closed for the proo rty. Bedford City is situated at the foot of the Ill ue Riilge mountains, and almost within the shadow of the fa- mosii: Peaks of Otter. It is on the main line of the Norfilk and estern railroad, nearly midway hetween Roanoke and Lynchburg, and has a population of 3.00i. The hotel, which in the future will be known as the Elks' Home. is about three-fourths of a mile from the town. The Randolph-Macon Academy is located near by. The building was erected in 1180 and until last year was used as a summer hotel. Nelson county granite, brick and shingles were used in its construction. To provide ample breathing space a lot of eight acres surrounds the building, the rear part of the tract being covered by a. noble grove of oaks. The hotel is completely and ele- gantly furnished, so that the purchasers will he put to no expense in that line be- yond some slight repairs. The rooms are large and airy, opening upon well-venti- lated halls. Nearly all rooms have open fireplaces to add to their cheerfulness and comfort. Some of them on the first floor are. like the large dining hall, finished in hard wood paneling, while the offices and lobbies have tiled floofs. A cool, spacious veranda extends all around the main por- tion of the hotel and the east wing. From the observatory on top of the building a magnificent view of the beautiful surround- ing landscape may be had. Owns Electric Light Plant. The building has its own fully equipped electric light plant and an ample water supply piped from springs at the base of the Peaks of Otter. The house is three stories high, has a frontage of 200 feet and can comfortably accommodate 200 persons. There are bath rooms on every floor and the sanitary arrangements are of modern and scientific construction. The committee came into possession of the property July 1, but it will probably not be occupied until about the beginning of winter. It was intended to be used as a summer hotel, and there is no arrangement for heating except the open fireplaces. which will not be adequate In severe weather. Plans are now being prepared for the installation of a steam heating plant, work on which will be begun in a short time. A large water main for pro- teetion against fire will also be placed in the builing. Some paint!ng Is required, as well as attention to plumbing and spout- ing In certain parts. These improvements will he pushed during the early fall. '/he Virginia members of the'order are especially interested in the rew home and delighted that it is located in their state. They desire to have it dedicated in No- vember and propose to have a state re- union at the time. The occasion will doubt- less be a notable one In Elkdom and will draw together members from all parts of the United States. It is thought the ork Acceshe committee will he promptly and enthusiastically In- dorsed by the Grand Lodge. The new home is easy of access, as there are four trains daily each way on the Norfolk and West- ern railroad, with connections north, south. east andl west. It is in a country where market sutpplies are plentiful and cheap. ThA climate is delightful, the landscape surroundings of remarkable beauty and with exclent fishing and huntIng terrn- tory all around. The location is near what Smy be termed the geographical center of Elkdom. Some time In the futur'e, it Is thought, a second home will be established west of the Mississippi river. Plans for the admigtistration of the home. its maintenance and'f the reception of in- mates have not been formulated. It is probable that this work will be given a goodi start at the coming session of the Grand Lodge. It Is proposed to make the home a model in every way, one in which the 115,(K0 members oif the order may take a deep and just pride, and one that will he worthy of a great organization which In- culcates benevolence, charity and brotherly love as its fundamental principles.

Information received by the police Satur- day night shows that the Mount Pleasant burglars. who operated Saturday morning visited six houses. At the house of Mr. Christian B. Dickey, No. 3212 17th street, the visit was paid about 3 o'clock. Mr. bickey's daughter heard footsteps in the hall near her room, and when she made an outcry the intruder hurried from the house. He had been in Mr. Dickey's sleeping apartment and taken his clothing, evidently for the purpose of searching the pockets for money and other valuables. The burglar's confederate, who was on the lookout in front of the house, extin- guished the street lamp when the outcry was made, and bot'h men got away.. A dark lantern was used in the house. On their way from the premises the burglars dropped Mr. Dickey's clothing. The houses of Mr. Alonzo Chatfield, No. 3400 16th street, and Mr. James L. Pugh. assistant corporation counsel, No. 3300 17th street, were also visited, but nothing taken. Applies for Administration Papers. George C.

Swearing to Personal Tix Returns. To the Editor of The Evening Star: In an article in last Saturday's edition of your paper under the heading "new as- sessment law," Mr. H. H. Darreille, chair- man of the board of appraisers, is reported as stating that if a person is exempt from taxation under the personal tax law "he should write a letter to the board of per- sonal tax appraisers and merely state that fact; this letter should be' attested by a notary, of course." In this the official, it appears to me, is expecting too much of the private citizen. To require every person who is not possessed of taxable property to write a letter to the board of appraisers would certainly involve an unnecessary amount of labor, and to require that the statement "be attested by a notary would take a large amount of money in notary fees from the very persons exempt from such burden by the law itself, while not adding a penny to the public treasury. A better plan and one which would save much confusion, trouble and expense would be for the proper authorities to prepare and send out with the statement of taxable property and exemptions a printed form of certificate to be signed by the reciplentif he is exempt from taxation under the law, and mailed to the appraisers in an official envelope de- signed expressly for that purpose. It is at least incumbent on the authorities to devise some means by which proper re- port may be made without imposing useless labor or expense upon the law-abiding citi- zens. ONE OF THEM. As already stated in The Star in this con- nection, it is necessary under the law as enacted that all returns of personal proper- ty subject to or exempt from taxation be sworn to before a person competent to ad- minister oaths. The law specifically em- powers members of the board of appraisers to administer these oaths without charge. This has been extended to certain specified clerks of the assessor's office, so that it is unnecessary for any citizen to pay a notary's fee unless he miay prefer in order to avoid visiting the assessor's office in per- son. Think Mrs. Littleford Will Recover. Mrs. Ada Littleford,; the young woman who attempted suicide Saturday morning at her home, 615 6th street northwest, by shooting herself in the 'left breast, as pub- lished in Saturday's Star, is still under treatment at the Horeaopathic Hospital. Because of her weak condition the doctors have not yet attempted to remove the bul- let. It was stated today that she was rest- ing comfortably, and although her-condi- tion is still serious the doctors think she will recover.

OAK Previously Swallows Quatity of em- line-Is Out of Danger. Tired of life, Mrs. Margaret Ernst, thirty years old, swallowed a quantity of gasoline and then inhaled illuminating gas at her home. No. 42 Florida avenue northwest, about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Her husband, F. William Ernst, a photographer. found her in the bath room insensible and in a critical condition. No time was lost in getting the woman to the Emergency Hos- pital. Dr. Stuart, the resident physician at the institution, discovered, upon examina- tion, that the woman's condition was seri- ous, and he administered restoratives to the patient while the vehicle was on its -way over the streets to the hospital. Heroic measures were adopted by the surgeon, and Mrs. Ernst was restored to consciousness. Five hours after she reached the hospital Dr. Stuart permitted her to be returned to her home. Shortly after the woman reached the hos- pital her husband and parents arrived and remained until she was out of danger. The husband took her home. When Mrs. Ernst was found in the condition stated her hus- band managed to get her to the hallway. and Dr. H. B. Coblentz. who was sum- moned, rendered1 aid until the arrival of the ambulance. Mrs. Ernst offered no explanation. It is stated that she had not enjoyed good health recently. Mrs. McGrath Painfully Hurt. Mrs. McGrath of 1255 F street north- east was-struck by a street car at the inter- section of 8th and D streets northeast about 8:30 o'clock last night and painfully injured.

Corporal O'Urien Na7 Come Sere later in the Week. Detective Muller, who went to North Adams, Mass., and baused the arrest of Corporal O'Brien, who I. wanted here to answer a charge of perjury in connection with his testimony given before the Senate committee on Philippine affairs, returned home yesterday. O'Brien may be brought here later in the week by the marshal. He was playing with a New York thcatrical company, and his employers are anxious to get him here as soon as possible in order that bond may be given far his release. The delay in bringing him here was caused by the absence of the judge who will have to sign the order of removal. Intruder Frightened Of. Saturday night about l:45 o'clock a scare was caused at the home of J. A. Clements. 1102 Bladensburg road, by the visit of a stranger. The front door was unlocked. but the intruder made so niuch noise that he was frightened off before he had a chance to get anything. An Ancient Foe To health and happiness is Scrofula -as ugly as ever since time imme- morial. It causes bunches in the neck, dis- figures the skin, inflames the mucous membrane, wastes the muscles, weakens the bones, reduces the power of resistance to disease and the capacity for recovery, and de- velops into consumption.

GRAND LODGE OF ELKS

THE ANNUAL ASSEMBLAGE ATSALT LANE CITY.

Lccal Delegates on the Way-Import-ant Matter to Come Before

the Body.

A number of the members of the Wash-ington Lodge of the Benevolent and Pro-tective Order of Elks of this city are ontheir way to attend the convention of theGrand Lodge. *hich meets in Salt LakeCity August 12 to 14, inclusive. Amongthose from the local lodge are Past GrandExalted Ruler E. B. Hay and Past Ex-alted Rulers Joseph A. Burkhart and E.Shine. who are delegates from this city.

It is stated that considerable rivalry ex-ists between Saratoga and Baltimore rela-tivea to securing the next convention of theGrand Lodge. and it is thought the decisionas to the next meeting place will be deter-mined by a very close margin of votes. TheWashington delegates, it is understood.will urge the claims of the monumentalcity for the convention of 11%Gu.One of the important matters that will

come up before the convention in Salt LakeCity will be the official announcement bythe committee in charge of securing ahome for aged Elks that the project haslinally been realised. The securing of sucha home has been for many years a cher-ishd plan of the order. The movementtook definite shape only three years ago atthe muting of the Grand Lodge held in St.Louis, when it was resolved that the Na-tional Elks' Home could and would be pro-vided. At that convention over $25,000 waspledged for the purpose. and the work wastaken up in earnest by a committee spe-cially appointed for the furtherance of theplan.To obtain a suitable site for the home

was a pro1.lem that entailed considerabletrouble. OffE rs of sites came from almost(v# ry qiuartz r. and the committee was keptbusy in the details of investigation and in-spection and travel. Sites were inspectedat Springfield, Ohio: Hilishoro', Ohio; Col-orado Springs, Col.: Waukesha. Wis.;Cody. Wyo., and Fauruier White SulphurSprings. Va.

Location at Bedford City.The committee had about decided on pur-

chasing a large hatel at the last-namedplace when the huilding was destroyed bytire. Finally a large hot- I was secured atBedf ird Ci:. Va.. and the deal was closedfor the proo rty. Bedford City is situatedat the foot of the Ill ue Riilge mountains,and almost within the shadow of the fa-mosii: Peaks of Otter. It is on the main lineof the Norfilk and estern railroad, nearlymidway hetween Roanoke and Lynchburg,and has a population of 3.00i. The hotel,which in the future will be known as theElks' Home. is about three-fourths of amile from the town. The Randolph-MaconAcademy is located near by.The building was erected in 1180 and untillast year was used as a summer hotel.Nelson county granite, brick and shingleswere used in its construction. To provideample breathing space a lot of eight acressurrounds the building, the rear part ofthe tract being covered by a. noble grove ofoaks. The hotel is completely and ele-gantly furnished, so that the purchaserswill he put to no expense in that line be-yond some slight repairs. The rooms arelarge and airy, opening upon well-venti-lated halls. Nearly all rooms have openfireplaces to add to their cheerfulness andcomfort. Some of them on the first floorare. like the large dining hall, finished inhard wood paneling, while the offices andlobbies have tiled floofs. A cool, spaciousveranda extends all around the main por-tion of the hotel and the east wing. Fromthe observatory on top of the building amagnificent view of the beautiful surround-ing landscape may be had.

Owns Electric Light Plant.The building has its own fully equipped

electric light plant and an ample watersupply piped from springs at the base ofthe Peaks of Otter. The house is threestories high, has a frontage of 200 feet andcan comfortably accommodate 200 persons.There are bath rooms on every floor andthe sanitary arrangements are of modernand scientific construction.The committee came into possession of

the property July 1, but it will probably notbe occupied until about the beginning ofwinter. It was intended to be used as asummer hotel, and there is no arrangementfor heating except the open fireplaces.which will not be adequate In severeweather. Plans are now being preparedfor the installation of a steam heatingplant, work on which will be begun in ashort time. A large water main for pro-teetion against fire will also be placed inthe builing. Some paint!ng Is required,as well as attention to plumbing and spout-ing In certain parts. These improvementswill he pushed during the early fall.'/he Virginia members of the'order are

especially interested in the rew home anddelighted that it is located in their state.They desire to have it dedicated in No-vember and propose to have a state re-union at the time. The occasion will doubt-less be a notable one In Elkdom and willdraw together members from all parts ofthe United States.

It is thought the orkAcceshe committeewill he promptly and enthusiastically In-dorsed by the Grand Lodge. The new homeis easy of access, as there are four trainsdaily each way on the Norfolk and West-ern railroad, with connections north, south.east andl west. It is in a country wheremarket sutpplies are plentiful and cheap.ThA climate is delightful, the landscapesurroundings of remarkable beauty andwith exclent fishing and huntIng terrn-tory all around. The location is near whatSmy be termed the geographical center ofElkdom. Some time In the futur'e, it Isthought, a second home will be establishedwest of the Mississippi river.Plans for the admigtistration of the home.

its maintenance and'f the reception of in-mates have not been formulated. It isprobable that this work will be given agoodi start at the coming session of theGrand Lodge. It Is proposed to make thehome a model in every way, one in whichthe 115,(K0 members oif the order may takea deep and just pride, and one that will heworthy of a great organization which In-culcates benevolence, charity and brotherlylove as its fundamental principles.

Swearing to Personal Tix Returns.To the Editor of The Evening Star:In an article in last Saturday's edition of

your paper under the heading "new as-sessment law," Mr. H. H. Darreille, chair-man of the board of appraisers, is reportedas stating that if a person is exempt fromtaxation under the personal tax law "heshould write a letter to the board of per-sonal tax appraisers and merely state thatfact; this letter should be' attested by a

notary, of course." In this the official, itappears to me, is expecting too much of theprivate citizen. To require every personwho is not possessed of taxable property towrite a letter to the board of appraiserswould certainly involve an unnecessaryamount of labor, and to require that thestatement "be attested by a notary wouldtake a large amount of money in notaryfees from the very persons exempt fromsuch burden by the law itself, while notadding a penny to the public treasury. Abetter plan and one which would save muchconfusion, trouble and expense would be forthe proper authorities to prepare and sendout with the statement of taxable propertyand exemptions a printed form of certificateto be signed by the reciplentif he is exemptfrom taxation under the law, and mailed tothe appraisers in an official envelope de-signed expressly for that purpose.

It is at least incumbent on the authoritiesto devise some means by which proper re-port may be made without imposing uselesslabor or expense upon the law-abiding citi-zens. ONE OF THEM.

As already stated in The Star in this con-nection, it is necessary under the law asenacted that all returns of personal proper-ty subject to or exempt from taxation besworn to before a person competent to ad-minister oaths. The law specifically em-powers members of the board of appraisersto administer these oaths without charge.This has been extended to certain specifiedclerks of the assessor's office, so that it isunnecessary for any citizen to pay anotary's fee unless he miay prefer in orderto avoid visiting the assessor's office in per-son.
