port in the yacht Mayflower was
about as great in contrast as any
thing could be to the scene when
that other Mayflower put into this
self-same harbor nearly 800 years
ago and gave the colonists their
first glimpse of the long-awaited
land of promise.
The only touch of the ancient
was when the town crier, bell in
hand, trudged through the
streets, loudly announcing the
presidents arrival.
From the wharf to the monu-
ment the president was escorted
through the quaint streets of pic
turesque Provincetown between
unbroken lines of United States
seamen and marines. He was &C
companied by no end of the great
and near-great, including the
British ambassador, president
Emeritus Chas. w. Eliot of Har-
ward, Gov. Draper of Massachu-
sets, Senators Lodge and Crane,
and a dozen others, most of
whom delivered speeches either
at the monument or at the great
banquet in the historic town hall
Immediately after the dedication.
Salutes from the warships and
music by the massed bands of all
the battleships enlivened the old
town that holds for today only
probably ten times it's fixed popu-

PROVINCETOWN, Mass, Aug.
5.-All the school histories and
all the school readers have, from
time out of mind, been teaching
the rising generation to look upon
Plymouth Rock as the foundation
stone of the settlement of New
England by the white race. In
one sense historic Plymouth has
had more honor than has been due
her.
In reality, the first landing
place of the Pilgrims in the new
world was at what Is now
Provincetown on the tip end of
Cape Cod. This fact is brought
to the attention of the public
forcefully today by the dedica-
ton of 100000 monument in
the form of a lofty masonry tower
that can be seen for scores Of
miles in every direction.
President Taft is today the
center figure in a notable gather
ing of celebrities that assembled
to conduct the dedication, which
was made the occasion of one of
the biggest spectacles of the year.
Provincetown has one of the
finest natural harbors on the At
lantic coast, and here is gathered
the entire battleship fleet, with a
numerous following of cruisers,
torpedo boats, submarines and
other craft. 1t is Taft's review
of the nations fighting fleet, and
the scene when he steamed into
