Taft III the BoWery.

After speaking tonight i'm Carnegie hall
at the diamond jubilee of Methodist mis-
slOns to Africa, President Taft motored
through g. driving rainstorm to the Bow
cry mission, where he made an address
to a typical BOWeTy audience. He after
ward inspected the bread line room,
where each night hundreds Of unemployed
are given food.
The President, in immaculate evening
clothes, presented a striking contrast to
the men of the mission, who rose to their
feet and cheered him as he entered the
long, churCl-like room from the rear.
In his talk to the men, delivered in an
earnest, conversational tone, the Presi-
dent urged his hearers not TO be down Oh
their luck, but to struggle on in the hope
that the future would be brighter for
them
The drive to the mission was one of the
widest automobile trips the President has
ever had. Rain was coming down in tor
rents as his car, preceded by a police
machine, rolled into the BOWeTy.
The famous old thOrOughfare Of story
and song was almost deserted.

Cheers in the Alley.

Passing the front door of the mission,
the President was driven into Irvington
street. Hundreds of residents Of the
crowded neigh5OrhOOd had heard of his
coming, and brayed the storm to give him
cheer as his automobile entered the
alley at the back Of the mission.
The alley was ankle deep in water
when the President alighted. Although
suffering from a severe cold, the Presi-
dent would not listen to a pOstpOnement
of his visit TO the BOWery.
Entering the hall, the President met
number of mission workers, among them
Mrs. Bird, the mother of the Bowery,'
and DR.. HallimOud, superintendent OF the
mission. The President was introduced
by DR.. Louis KlOpsCh publisher of the
mission.

Duty Of United States.

we began our war expecting 10 nm
ish it shortly, and we landed in the
Philippines, and we are there still, but
our horizon was widened much beyond
these gems of the Pacific ocean by rea-
son of the responsibilities which we
have been Obliged to assume with ref
ererce to the entire world. We are a
nation with tremendous power and
tremendous wealth, and, unless we use
that for the benefit of our international
neighbors-and they We're neighbors Of
ours, for the world is very small-we
are failing to discharge the duties that
we ought to feel as members OF the IN
teTnatiOnal community.
THE mission is a nucleus and an epit-
ONE OF the civilization that is
expected to widen out in that
neighbOrhOOd have heard mis-
siOns criticised. 1 have heard
men say that they would not contrib
ute to foreign missions at all; that We
had wicked people enough at home and
we might just as well leave the foreign
native and savages to pursue their own
happy lives in the forest and look after
our own who need a great deal of min
istTatiOn. I have come to regard that as
narrOw-minded as a man who does not
like music, who does not understand
the things that God has provided for
the evolution Of the human race.

BeIsians Not Mourning.

A curious circum stance is the fact that
Brussels appears to be more occupied
with the sensational chapters in King
LeOp0ld's career than with his illness.
The situation is summarized by well
informed official who said tonight:
Leopold does not understand the Bel
gians, and the Belgiaus do not understand
Leopold. So, perhaps, they have grown
apart. The Belgians have come to con-
slider Leopold as a great man Of BUSH
ness. a great international promoter, who
at the same time has done much good for
Belgium"
Baroness Vaughan, it is rumored, in
sisted upon seeing the king today, thus
furnishing an exciting incident, but did
not succeed iE carrying out her plan.
it is also reported that she was in
formed that if the king died she would
not be allowed to remain in Belgium.

Good Work Of Missionaries,

Missionaries in China, missionaries
in Africa, are the fOrerUnners Of our
civilization, and without them we
should have no hope Of cOnquering the
love and the admiration and the respect
of the millions Of people that we hope
to bring under the influences Of Chris
tan civilization.
Those who go for mercantile pur-
poses into those distant lands, 1 am
sorry to say, quicker to catch the
savage tendencies than the savages are
to catch from them the best of our
Christian civilization.
1.-THE men whom L wish to commend
are those who, in the face OF all the
obstacles that certainly tend to discoUr-
age the bravest, enter the dark cOnti-
nent Of Africa in an attempt to win
those fields to Christianity.
"The United States pas not any ter
ritOTy or interest there. We did make
an experiment, or encourage an expert
ment. some years ago in Liberia, and
we do not have the interest that we
ought to have in trying to preserve the
| integrity of that little negro republic
/ but you know, and the nations of the
| world know, that we are not in Africa
/ to spread our territory.

PRESIDENT TAFT'S
VISIT TO NEW YORK
Trip to the BOWery After an
Address TO MethOdiStS in
Carnegie Hall.
CHEERS IN DARK ALLEY
CHIEF EXECUTIVE SEES SOME
THING OF sEAMY SIDE OF LIFE.

New York, Dec. 13.-With a smiling
reference to the attack OF the Method
list church in Africa" President Taft
addressed an immense gathering at
Carnegie hall tonight at the diamond
jubilee of the Methodist Episcopal
church, called to celebrate the compile
ton Of a campaign started last Jan
uary, whereby $500, 167 has been raised
TO further mission work III Africa.
OF this sum 81, 1873 has been received
in cash and the remainder has been
subscribed, payable in installments due
in five years.
The Rev. j. T. HartzeI. bishop OF
Africa, through whose efforts the
money was raised, was the only other
speaker of the evening.
The President said in part:
1T is not perhaps, appropriate to
date a religious movement from war,
but it does seem to me as if our peo-
pie acquired a world feeling from the
time we undertook the responsibilities
of freeing Cuba and saying what should
be done by our neighbOrs with refer
ence to internal government when that
internal government seemed to US to
pass the bounds of what we thought
to be civilization

Bishop Hartzell's Speech.

Bishop Hartzell said:
This African diamond jubilee had for
its purpose the raising Of at least $500 eco
as an extra, over and above the regular
missionary appropriations. to strengthen
our ceuters in that continent and making
it possible to answer at least some Of
the calls for advances.
and now. tonight. we have come within
IS days of the end Of that celebration.

United States Has Enough.

eve have enough. Some people think
we have got a great deal more than
enough, and certainly there is no one so
imperialistic as to desire to share part
Of the Dark continent
1T is curious to see how the Almighty
works his ways. Our interest in Africa
for many years was in the slave trade.
We here, all of us, were responsible. New
England got out of it q little earlier than
the others, bat we were all responsible
for the encouragement of that trade. and
now we have living with us ten million
descendants Of the negroes that were
taken by force from that Dark CONT
nent.
And yet 7 think no one would say that
the descendants of those people brought
here are not to be congratulated on the
fact that they have been able to enter
in proximity to civilization, so that they
are a hundred years in advance Of their
relatives in Africa. And yet they came
