'Vannutelli was Just such a function as
might be expected when a direct repre-
sentative of the Vatican appears as a Wis
itor to pay his respects TO the president of
the United States. 1t is no secret that
President Taft, by reason of his broad lib
erality in matters of religion and his pro-
found respect for the belief of others, is
i'm high favor with the papal authorities,
hence the Vannutclli reception at the White
House was in every respect a happy event
In New York II is expected that the car
dinal will participate in the exercises Incl
dent to the conservation of st. Patrick's
cathedral This will take place early in
the week. when it is expected that the
debt Of $3.50, 600 on the edifice will have been
paid, thus fulfilling the conditions that
must antedate all such ceremonies in that
denomination. Although not all the money
has yet been raised 20 clear the indebted
ness. Archbishop Farley is so confident
that il will be by the end Of this week that
preparation for the conservation exercises
are now going forward Invitations TO emf

and American ways of doing business.
Keenly alert, he observes everything
that goes on about him, and while by no
means loquacious, il is his custom to
frequently comment upon the things he
sees. Children please him greatly and
when little ones crowd around the great
man of the red hat, his face, always
wreathed in a beatific smile, takes on
new light.
Count Vannutelli had heard much of
the United States before his arrival here.
Americans who visit Rome are wont to
regale the natives with stories of Amer
lean wonders. While in Omaha the car
dinal mentioned this American trait add
ing that so far as he had seen the story
OF American thrift had not in the slight
est been oyerdrawn.
Turning TO the scenic side of America
the cardinal early on his tour expressed
a wish to see Niagara Falls. Through his
Interpreter, he said that If the falls were
as big, as awe-inspiring and as grand as
he had been told, he would henceforth be-
lieve anything he might hear about the
greatness of the United States. &c. on
leaving Chicago, the distinguished pTelate
went 9traightway to Niagara, where he
found the great rapids even grander than
he had fancied. In Washington the car
dinal called on President Taft, but even
the great dignity surrounding the White
House did not seem 70 impress him SO
deeply as the cataract of water tumbing
over the falls OF Niagara He seems to
have an eye, an ear and a soul for the
wonders Of nature for children and
flowers.
one of the most beautiful incidents of
the cardinals visit to omaha occurred at
ST Josephs hospital 1t was raining
when the prelate Notwithstanding hard.
Water flowed several inches deep In the
cutters. and little whirlpools formed at
every street intersection, IL was, in the
aggregate. a most dismal day for show
ing a great visitor about the city. But
the rain made no change upon the benign
face of the cardinal He smiled the
same happy, pious smile that character
ICES him when he is warmed by the
matchless sunlight of his own sunny
Italy On reaching the hospital, the
sisters came out TO do honor TO the guest.
They kneeled as he approach ed-kneeled
in the sYirling rivulet that dashed
against the curb. seemingly unmindful
OF the water. The cardinal beamed his
kindly cOuntenance upon them, as the
torrent pelted down. Men OF the world
men who have known no church fol
years were among the OnlOOkers. Blast
and worldly as were these men, they
were deeply impressed by the scene
and as the sisters arose 20 resume theii
work in the wards. every hat was raised
despite the rain.

St Elizabeth g. union, which Is composed
of Catholic wOmen's societies, and which
was organized at a Convention of the St
Vincent De Paul society at Richmond two
years ago. Right Rev. Monsignor ID. j.
Mcmahon of New York City and Rev. Dr.
William ]. Kerby of the Catholic Uni
Versty of America were appointed a COM
mittee for this purpose. The union will
form a section OF the National Conference
Of Charities and the committee will con-
slider the question of changing its name
to the Federation of Catholic Women's
cieties.
Just before adjournment the conference
sent the following cablegram to Pope Plus
Y: The National Conference of Catholic
Charities, convened in the Catholic Uni
versity of America. for the assistance of
our poor brethren, begs your apostolic
blessing on their labors."
1t is estimated that 10000 Catholics gain
cred in Washington for the conference, ana
the coming of Cardinal Vannutelll Just at
the close gave excellent opportunity for
the churchmen 10 see their great prelate.
That Americans are more tolerant than
Europeans in the practice of religion was
declared by Cardinal Vannutelh in sew
eral cities on his route
The spirit of liberation Is commend
aple the noted DFeIale declared. Livery
one practices his belief without restric-
tiOns, and in this point you are superior
to some European countries, where such
restrictions are placed upon conscience"
The distinguished visitor said that on
his tour Of America he was impressed by
the reverence with which the Americans
regard the clergy and the attention shown
HIM by laymen everywhere regardless OF
church afiliaton seemed TO deeply i'm
press him Throughout the tour, including
Omaha and the numerous other cities Wis
tied. the most profound Difference was
shown the cardinal by all creods.
The Washington reception to Cardinal

have been sent out and accepted, and the
program is practically completed. Tho
work of decorating the cathedral with the
papal colors, gold and white, and installing
twelve bronze crosses as a sign that 1t has
been consecrated has begun.
The interest in this structure is not con-
fined to the church 1t is one of the real
architectural ornaments of the metropolis,
and one Of the most imposing edifices of
the Gothic type i'm this country. The
cornerstone was laid over half a century
ago and the dedication of the completed
