Last night was Ohio’s night at the Palace Hotel, where the Grand Com- mandery of the Buck State comed, entertained and refreshed fair visitors and their knightly escorts. In the beautiful maple room of the hotel, amidst ferns and flowers, em- blems and flags, the officers of the com- mandery in their full dress uniforms had words of greeting for all who en- tered its hospitable doors. The Grand Master of England, the Right Honor- able the Earl of Euston, and his party looked in for a short time during the evening. In the room adjoining, keeping “open house,” was Pittsburg Commandery No. 1, whose doors were also thrown wide. To all-visitors was presented a small souvenir of Pittsburg steel. The doors of both rooms were open and the visitors to one room ' passed through that of the other commandery. The greatest feature of the Ohio Grand Commandery’s reception was a fine oil painting of the late martyred Presiden S Knizht William Mec- Kinley, in Templar regalia. The painting is the only ome in ex- istence that represents the murdered President in the costume of the order, and it is pointed out with great pride by the Ohioans to all their wvisitors. The painting itself is framed in rich old gold and is backed by two silk American flags. President McKinley was a member of Canton Commandery No. 2 of Canton, Ohio. There was no delega- tion from Canton to the present con- clave, and the Knights of the Ohio point to the ture with as they an- swer all questions for Canton by ing that he is the only representati of the Canton Commande: hat Ohio delegation.
