tombs of the holy apostles depend the
purity of the faith, the vitality of Cath.
olicity in every part of the world; and
in this country, freedom is assured to
Catholic faith and religion by the guar
antees of the American constitution
which is the symbol of authority and
liberty tremendously blended"
"The cardinal also took occasion to
pay splendid tribute to Archbishop
Ireland, and, after he sat down, amid
the delighted applause of the large as
semblage, Judge Kelly suggested in
an audible aside, the name that was on
the tip of everyone's tongue, "Arch-
bishop Ireland"
The archbishop had not intended to
speak, but the suggestion of Judge
Kelly, seconded by approving loo!
from the bishops, was caught up by
the audience, who continued to ap-
plaud until Archbishop Ireland stood
up.
His remarks We're brief, but full of
enthusiasm, Which reached its height
when he said, in reference to the
strong Endorsement of the cardinal of
the order of the knights of Columbus.
Never, since the founding of the
order, have such words of strong COM
mendation been spoken from such a
high authority.
'Henceforth the members of the or
der throughout America will all look
knights of Columbus received supreme
honor"
The Archbishop also added a warm
second to the appeal already expressed
by Judge Kelly, that when the cathe-
dral in st. Paul is completed Cardinal
Satolli must come to dedicate it.
Then there was another dramatic
moment. The cardinal had prepared
and read his speech, and when he sat
down none expected to hear from him
again.
But here he rose second time, and
in few words, full of appreciative
feeling for the warmth of his welcome
and the pressing invitation to pay an
other visit the cardinal promised that,
health and strength and life continu-
ing, he would be present to dedicate
the magnificent cathedral upon it's
completion. Another outburst of ap-
plause followed.
1t had been expected that the speech.
Of welcome and the address of the car
dinal would be more or less formal and
perfunctory, but it turned out far 9TH
erwise. and the words spoken last
night will mark the occasion as one
of the most memorable in the history
of the city.
1t was an immense throng that gath.
cred at the Ryan hotel, filling the great
lobby and extending along Robert .
street and up Sixth, waiting for the az
rival of Cardinal Satolli and the high
church dignitaries attending him.
Promptly at $50 the carriages drew
up in front of the hotel, and the cardi-
nal, the archbishops and bishops anI
representatives of st. Paul council Of

satolli sat in the center of the line.
upon a dais set up at the angle of
the wide corridor on the first floor of
the Ryan hotel. The dais was cano-
pied by drapery of the papal colors,
white and yellow. and was banked by
great ferns and palms. Around and
throughout the corridor and reception
rooms We're festoons of the national
and the papal colors and many flow
ers.
Up the wide stairway Oh one side
OF the building passed the great demo-
cratic but well dressed and well-ap-
pearing throng. Among them were
nearly all the dignitaries of the city.
besides many from Minneapolis, and
perhaps 200 of the clergy of the twin
cities and from many points in the
Northwest.
