Speaking of the trip. Mgr. Satolli said
he had enjoyed it exceedingly. His
impressions, briefly, were the yaStneSS
of the country, the grandeur of the
scenery and the abundance of unde-
veloped resources. He gathered vast
fund of information concerning the con-
dition of religion and the needs of the
church in the Western states. He de-
sired that public acknowledgment be
made OF his obligations and thanks to
the presidents and other officers of the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
railroads, whose kind attentions sur
rounded himself and party over the
long journey-of nearly 1908 miles with
every possible comfort.
The party on this trip consisted of
Mgr. Satolli, Bishop Grace, of this city,
DIR. OGorman, DR.. Grammar, DR.. Sha-
han and Dir. Pace, of the Catholic uni
versity. The entire party was much
pleased with the trip, and Bishop Grace,
who is nearly eighty years old. stood the
trip as well as the youngest OF the party.
They all looked bronZed from recent
exposure to the air and sun in the Ma
tional park, from whence they came
direct to this city. The party left st.
Paul June %, on the private car of
James j. Hill, making the run to the
coast over The Great Northern road.
In speaking of the trip to the GLOBE
reporter last evening the spokesman of
the party said: 'rhe trip through The
mountains was marvel of enjoym ent.
We first enjoYed the scenery OF the
Rocky mountains, then that between
the Rockies and the Cascade along the
beautiful Columbia river, but passing
over the Cascade range Was the most
interesting, because of the SURPRISING
grandeur of the scenery. The first stop
was made at Great Falls. There we in
Spected the great water power ard the
works erected to utilize that power.
The impression made by Great Falls is
that it will be 1.-The city, between the
Twin Cities and the coast.
''At Helena a grand reception was
given to Mgr. Satolli, ana an exquisite
dinner was served the party by Thomas
Crnse, the millionaire miner of Mon
tana. The next stop was at Everett,
the newborn city of the sound, which
the people claim has grown to popula-
ton of 10000 since Its birth, year and
half ago. There the party was taken
for drive by committee of citizens.
The first Sunday of the trip was passed
at Seattle. The party arrived there
Saturday night. aud the papal delegate
was given reception that night at the
Hotel Rainier. at winch the governor of
the state of Washington and the mayor
of Seattle made addresses of welcome.
The best citizens of the city called on
the party. Sunday afternoon we sailed
down the sound to Tacoma. where fine
reception was given at the Tacoma hotel.
The party went to Portland from
Tacoma over the Southern Pacific road.
The day was taken up in viewing the
city OF Portland under eScOIt of COM
mittee of citizens. San Francisco was
the next stopping place, the trip there
being over the famous Charta route, one
of the most picturesque roads i'll the
country. The party passed SIX days in
San Francisco, visiting all the places of
worth, and being entertained at mum
Der of dinners.
In the Mormon City.
"Salt Lake City was the next objective
point, and the sensation was experienced
of the papal representative i'll the very
heart of Mormondom. The welcome by
the MormOns, as well as the GentileS,
was of the very kindeSt. There the
party visited the Mormon temple and
the tabernacle. A reception was also
given at which the governor of the ter
ritOry and prominent officials were
present.
Butte. the great mining town, where
in no fewer than $1,000 Catholics reside,
was the next stopping place. The re-
ception to Mgr. Satolli Their, was the
| most glorious of all the trip. The gem
crosby of the citizens was unbounded.
Chief among the millionaire miners who
were conspicuous for their kindness to
| the party there are Marcus Daily and
Mr. Connell. They entertained the
| party at an exquisite dinner. Sunday
was passed there, and, as the largest
/ church in the city holds but 400 people,
the divine services were conducted by
Mgr. Satolli in the open air before a
multitude of 10,000 people.
From Butte the party went to the
| National park. The president of the
] Northern Pacific road had ordered the
manager to extend all favors and cour-
| tesies to the party. Six days were
passed in the park, each of which was
full of new wonders, the unanimous
verdict OF the party being that it is
truly wonderland. From the park the
| patty came direct to st. Paul over the
Northern Pacific road, delighted with
the journey and its sights and Incl
