THE Ex-PRESIDENT.
BY Associated Press

Paris, April 25.-Mr. Roosevelt was
the guest of the city of Paris today
in the magnificent hotel de Vile, or
town hall, which has played coa-
spicuous part in French history. The
present structure was erected in 1876,

building, which was burned by the
Communards in 1871 Throughout the
revolutions the hotel de Vile was the
usual rallying place of the Demo
cratic as opposed to the court party.
1t was there that the revolutionary
tribunal sat in 1904. Here also in
August 1880 Louis Philippe appeared
on the balcony and in full view of
tha nopuIace below embraced La
Fayette and from the steps of the
building on February "a, 1S4S, Louis
Blanc proclaimed the institution OF
the republic.
