Rome, March 1.-THE question
which is perplexing Rene is will ex-
President Roosevelt choose in favor of
the M. e. church or Rome or the pope
He cannot visit both, for the same
distinction will be made as in the case
of ex- Vice President Fairbanks. This
Is a vital question In Rome and is an
interesting one over the entire world
Over the entrance to the M. e.
church there always flies the American
flag and the congregation is made up
almost entirely of Americans. At one
time this year Rev Triple had rep
resentatives from twenty seven differ
ent states in the union in his consre-
cation. AS it is an American insti
tuition there is considerable ground
for believing that Colonel Roosevelt
will choose this church of his home
land. On the other hand, the pope
represents a power in the religious
world greater in SOM respects than
many kings possess in the political
world.
1t is hoped the colonel will find some
way out of this embarrassing situa-
ton without offending either side.

The departure of Mr.. Patten for

his rough handling in Manchester ex-

FOLLY FARM Is
BURNED DOWN
0ctason Shaped HotsI at
Tottenyille, 5. |. Total Lost.

An early morning fire today total
ly destroyed the Folly Farm hotel In
Beach street, Tottenville. The build
ing, which was octagon shaped, was
a frame structure and one of the
oldest on this end of the island. 1t
was occupied by Richard Glass and
family, consisting OF his wife and a
few months old child, who lost
everything by the fire.
The fire was discovered by Mrs.
Glass shortly before 8 O'Clock when
she detected the odor of smoke COM
ing from the lower floor. MIR. Glass,
who works nights, was away from
home at the time. Mrs. Glass, hasti-
ly grabbing up what few things she
could, and with the child escaped
from the burning building and gave
the alarm. She Is now al the home

An alarm was sent in from box 43
and 101 Hook and Ladder Company
and 201 Engine Company responded.
After a hard pull through the snow
the heavy apparatus reached the
scene of the blaze. The alarm was
sent in about 5:15 o'clock and when
the iremen arrived the building
was a mass of flames. The ehook
and ladder returned to quarters and
the engine company remained at the
fire until after Z o'clock this morn
The building, which was owned by

the place has been used as a hotel,
but until recently it has been occu-

by a heavy blanket of snow, that al
most blocked traffic, thousands of
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES from all parts of
the United States gathered al Lafay-
cite Park today, where Helen Taft
unveiled the statue of Baron Won
Steuben, the German hero OF the
American Revolution. A military
pageant of several thousand soldiers
and sailors struggled through the
snow. The German ambassador and
other high officials were present.
President Taft delivered an address
In appreciation of Won Steuben.
Bartholdt's Address.
Among other speakers was Repre-
sentative Bartholdt, OF Missouri, who
spoke. in part as follows:
History tells US that among the
men who came from foreign lands
there was none who rendered more
valuable service to the aus OF Am
rtcan independence than did that
brave Prussian soldierN whose men,
DRY a great country honors today,
Baron Steuben. As n Of the mil
itary godfathers of this nation, his
is i~ndissolubly linked with the
stormy events incident to its birth
and his name and achievements are
a monument more imperishable than
statue of bronze In the annals Of
adopted country and the hearts
of his >eountrymen.
American independence was
achieved through love for liberty,
through military skill, and through
and answering fidelity to
the cause, and 1t was maintained
through the wisdom OF statesman
ship which made the experiment of
self-government q success. All
these superb qualities were essential
to the final triumph, and the lack Of
either one would have spelled fall
ure. Historians agree that in Wash
these qualities were found
that he excelled In them
limited to the display OF military
knowledge and the exercise Of SOL
iiery skill. His was a master mind
when 1t came to meet the require !
ments of organization, fundamental
tactics and stately. But there was
else in him. No Ameri-
patriot could have been more
anfalteringly true and more stub
oornly faithful to the cause of the
colonies, and none more courageous
y sanguine as to the final outcome
was that rugged soldier of two
worlds.
Unlike many other foreign off,
oers, Baron Steuben never returned
to his native country, but died on
%, 1894, a true Ameri-
patriot. His burial place near
Utica is known to but few Of the |
