Senator Lodge, during the review
changed his seat to one just oehlnd
the president. Laughingly, the presl-
dent turned to him and said, so that
Senator Bacon might hear it: You
should have seen Bacon hide his face
when the Eilipinos came by. The
slaves were rejoicing in their shack

And then came Capt. Seth Bullock
and his bunch" of COW punchers. 1t
was the time of their life and they
were making the most OF it. All OF
them know the president personally
and as they passed the stand they
shouted to him, waved their hats and
cheered like wild men. One OF their
number added interest to the occa-
sion by lassoing various persons
along the route of the parade, includ-
ing big policeman. The diversion
afforded him and the spectators the
greatest delight. After the parade the
president received and shook hands
with the cowboys.
Turning from the pageant OF the
day. the doubled population OF the

Spectacles of the Night,
the promenade at the pension office,
naisnamed ball; the fireworks on
the white lot; and the dazzling street
decorations. The attendance at the
ball was limited to the twelve or fit

would hold.
The Presidents Address.
My Fellow Citizens: No people O."
earth have more cause to be thankful
than ours, and this is said reverently,
in no spirit of boastfulness in our
own strength, but with gratitude to
the Giver of Good who has blesse3 US
with the conditions which have en-
ab1ed us to achieve so large meas
ure of wellbeing and of happiness. To
US as a people it has been granted to
lay the foundations of Our national
life in 2 new continent. We are the
heirs of the ages, and yet we have
had to pay few of the penalties which
in old countries are exacted by the
dead hand O: a bygone civilization.
We have not been obliged to fight
for our existence against any alien
race, and yet Our life has called Tor
the vigor and effort without which
the manlier and harder virtues with
er away. Under such conditions 1t
would be our fault if we failed; and
the success which we have had in the
past, the success which we confident
ly believe the future will bring,
should cause in us no feeling of vain
glory, but rather a deep and abiding
realization of all which life has Of
fered US; a full acknowledgment Of
the responsibility which is ours; and
a fixed determination to show that
under free government mighty
people can thrive best, alike as re-
CARDS the things of the body and the
= things Of the soul.
Our Foreign Relations.
Much has been given to us, and
much will rightfully be expected from
US. We have duties to others and drl-
ties to ourselves; and we can shlrk
neither. We have become a great ma
ton, forced by the fact of its great
ness into relation with the other ma
tons of the earth; and we must be-
have as beseems people with such
responsibilities. Toward all other
nations. large and small, our attitude
must be. one of cordial and sincere
friendship. We must show not only
in our words, but in Our deeds that
we are earnestly desirous of securing
their good will by acting toward
them in a spirit of just and and gen.
erous recognition of all their rights.
But justice and generosity in ma
ton, as in an individual, count most
