The cardinal sat In a red plush
chair IN the center Of the stage. To
his right were President Taft, forrgr
President Roosevelt and Clief Justice
White and on the LEFT were Governor
Crothers Ambassador Bryce, Speaker
Clark and Representative Cannon. The
ovation which greeted Mr.. Roosevelt as

tiCe White was remarkable but that
| which greeted the cardinal as he
ascendcd the stairs with President
| Taft was far more remarkable.
The cardinal wore the red robe. the

speeches he sat with q smile on his
wrinkled and kindly face. and his
bright eyes attested the pleasure that
this tribute afforded him.

| "As American citizens we are proud

cardinal. The rarity with which this rank
Is conferred in his church Upon bishops
and priests so far from Rome is an In
