Honor.


Honor.
Buda Pest, April ia heavy rain
storm did not prevent Colonel Roose-
welt from disposing Of an exceedingly
strenuous program. This included
luncheon at the royal palace. as the
guest of Archduke Joseph, a recep-
ton at the parliament house and a
sightseeing tour which comprised WIS.,
it's to the unique agricultural museum,
built in imitation of the celebrated
gothic castle of Mazda Hunyad. where
Mr.. Roosevelt was especially interest
ed in the conservation and reforesta-
ton work of Hungary.
A portion of the day was taken up
with call upon Francis Kossuth, lead
er Of the united opposition. who is i'll.
a visit to Washington monument,
erected by the Hungarian American
federation, an inspection of the studio
of Zala, the Hungarian sculptor, re-
ception to the members of the Ameri-
can colony at the consulate and a re-
ception to the Hungarian journalists
at the hotel. Mr.. Roosevelt and Ker-
NIT were the guests of the American
ambassador, Baron Hengelmuller Won
Hengervar and the baroness at din
ner at the Park club. where they met
the leading representatives of the Hun.
garian nobility.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
of the day was Col. Roosevelts half
hour talk with Francis Kossuth. Al
though Kossuth's name is still synony-
nous throughout Hungary with the in
dependent aspirations of the people of
Hungary, he is now living quietly, ow-
ing to the recent fall of the independ-
emit coalition ministry, Of which he and
Count Apponyi were the leaders. The
Austrian government manifested not
the slightest disapproval Of the visit;
on tho contrary Ambassador Hengel-
muller accompanied Mr.. Roosevelt,
and was present at the interview.
Kossuth told the ex-president how,
in his early life, which he had spent
in exile, he had been taught to revere
America, where his father had found
welcome and refuge. They talked
chiefly of the material development of
Hungary since Mr. Roosevelt was here
40 years ago. Politics, so far as is
known, was not mentioned.
The rain did not dampen the ardor
of the Hungarians. Wherever the for
mer president went there were crowds
to cheer him. The interparliamentary
group, through Count Apponyi, hailed
him as the champion of public honesty
throughout the world and the greatest
living statesman.
To meet Colonel Roosevelt at lunch.
con Archduke Joseph had several not
able Hungarian hunters and travellers,
including Count Khuen Won Hedervary.
Count Teleky, the discoverer of Lake
Rudolf in British East Africa, and
Counts Itchy and Szapary, who also
have hunted in Africa. Therefore big
game was the principal topic of con.
versation. Owing to the illness Of
the archduchess no women were pres.
ent.
