ROOSEVELT.

"A large number OF the citizens OF
Montana and other western states
had the pleasure Of entertaining Theo-
dore Roosevelt the past week, aud the
distinguished guest apparently appre'
ciated the welcome extended and the
hospitality provided for him. The
western friends and admirers of the
former president also derived great
enjoyment from the visit. which is re.
garded as . sort of farewell tour
through this part OF the country.
The scenes witnessed during Mr..
Roosevelt's recent visit in the south,
on the Pacific coast and through the
northwest demonstrated that his pop.
ularity with the masses of the people
has not decreased. Everywhere he
has been welcomed with Manifestations
OF friendship, public confidence and
esteem. The efforts to undermine his
influence in public affairs have failed.
Throughout the length and breadth OF
the United States, Mr.. Roosevelt is
recognized as q moral force that is
effective in restraining both the en-.
croachments of corporate greed and
the dangers that would result from
government by Q mob. AS a living
exponent of the new na%tionalism, the
former president is q booster for re.
forms that contemplate government
by the people iniplace Of government
BY political bosses and selfish inter.
ests.
Belief in Mr.. Roosevelt's honesty
and sincerity ofipurpose accounts, to
. large extent, for his popularity with
his fellow citizens. He lacks the gift
of e~loquence, las it 10 generally un.
derstood, his public speeches being
deficient in fights;of oratorical avia-
ton that have made some men fam.
ous. His remarks at various places
during his recent. lwestern trip were
mainly a re.iteration OF universal
truths, familiarito all of US, but Mr..
Roosevelt presented them In vigorous
language that accentu ated their worth
and the desirability OF giving them
practical application.
The text oil most of the Roosevelt,
addresses was good citizenship ant
good government, subjects that shoult
appeal to everyone who is opposed te
the other kind. &He urged the neces
city OF citizens:paying attention
to their duties than to their rights
and said that the proper place to be
gin is at home. "Act on the square
with your family and you will hav'
taken the fret step toward acting il
the same manner.in the affairs OF stat
or nation" was;one OF the Roosevelt
epigrams delivered in q recent ad
dress.
One of the secrets of Roosevelt
popularity among the masses is tn
antipathy shown by interests tina
seek to control legislation in congress
and elsewhere. During his term q
president, and since;he left the Viii,
house, Mr.. Roosevelt was largely ir
strumental In securing the enactmer
OF laws that protect the rights {
the people in their dealings with th
railroads and other powerful interest'
His activity in this connection ha
been resented by the interests affected
and their criticisms and attacks hav
placed Mr.. Roosevelt among q clat
who are slowed for the enemies the
have made" And the former pres
dent appears to be delighted wit
those associations.

A HoWLlNG SUCCESS.
The Pisa Guido Tha. Was Unique II
Coaxing an Echo.

Mr.. Howells in his story of early
travels In Italy describes an inter-
: sesting experience and unique"
guide, both of which he encoun-
tered in Pisa. The baptistery stands
bat 1 step from the Campo Santo,
! and the guide ushered the party in
with the air of one who has held his
treat stroke in reserve until now.
Ee waited until they had looked at
some comparatively trihing sculp-
stures before he raised his voice and
uttered q melodious species OF
howl.
While we stood in amazement
the conscious structure of the dome
xaught-ths sound and prolonged it
k;ths q variety and sweetness OF
which I could not have dreamed.
The man poured out in quick sue
cession his musical walls and then
ceased, and choir of heavenly ech-
.oes burst forth in response.
There was supernatural beauty
in these harmonies of which l de-
spair of giving any true idea. They
were of such tender and exalted
rapture that we might well have
thought them the voices of young
eyed eherubim singing as they
passed through paradise. They
seemed a celestial compassion that
stopped and soothed and rose again
IN lofty acclaim.
We were long silent and then
broke forth with cries Of admira-
esfofs Of which the marvellous echo
/ made eloquence.
Did you ever hear such music as
that?" asked the guide.
'The papal choir does not equal
itn we answered with one voice.
TIE cicerone was not to be 81
fenced even with such a tribute.
He went on:
aPeshaps, as Americans, you
know Moshu Feelmore, the presi-
dent? No? All, what fine man!
Well, one day he said to me here,
we have the finest echo in the
Fworld in the hall of congress- l
said nothing, but for answer l
merely howled a little - thus!
Moshu Fillmore was convinced.
Said he, There is no other echo in
the world
II am unique" pursued the cice-
rome, 'sfor making this echo. But"
he added. with sigh, 'it has been
my ruin. The English have put me

PEARY'S WALKING
TEST,FR|ENDSS SAY,
PROVES DATA
On Army Jaunt He Covered
S. Miles in IS Hours, Which,
II Is Said, Backs Arctic Claim.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The official
report of Capt. Robert f. Feary's re-
cent walking test as prescribed by the
Navy Department just made public r.,
in the opinion OF his friends in the navy,
the strongest possible REPUTATION of the
arguments advanced by critics who
have questioned the time the explorer
captain made over the ice upon the re-
turn from the North Pole.
Peary selected Dec. IS, 10 and 20 for
the Government test. on the first day
he walked twenty-five miles In six
hours and forty-five minutes; on the
second day twenty-five miles In seven
hours and twenty-six minutes, and on
the third day five miles in one hour and
t~wenty-elght minutes. In other words
he walked fifty-five miles In fifteen
hours n thirty-nine minutes.
Returning from the North Pole to
the point where he left Bartlett, Capt.
Peary covered $50 miles in three days,
an average OF fifty miles a day. The
journey northward from Bartlett re-
miles a day.
FrlenuS OF tne capualn say mat MS
naval tests proves conclusively that
fifty miles a day over the ice on the
memorable return from the Pole was
not an unreasonable distance for hin
to have covered. Ip the official walk
ing test he covered hfty-fve miles. IL
fifteen hours and thirty-nine minutes
without in any way forcing matters.
Proceeding north from Bartlett, tn,
time consumed in covering the 1872 mile
to the Pole was necessarily slower be
cause II was an advance ms t~erritor!
through much of which the explorer
party had to literally hew its way.
In the light OF his recent walking
achievements, Capt. Peary. in the opin
Ion of many naval officers, has show
how fit he was while in the far north
for hard n steady going under con
ditions that would have discouraged
weaker man. From Cape Columbia
he made a round trip Of 955 miles II
ffty-four days. an average of a littl
less than IS miles a day

poser OF "Ysobel'' which opera may or

receipt Of a letter from his American
impressario which he said. both as
tonished and bewildered him. The opera
was written for Miss Bessie Abbott and
vas to have been produced at the New
Theatre on Nov. 81. The present cor
r~espondence has to do with the hitch
between the composer and the New
York producers which has resulted in
Mascagnl remaining in Rome.
Mascagni said that the letter received
in the md'ning's mail was dated Dec.
%. but posted in New York on Dec. %.
Its contents and tone surprised him
greatly. The writer he added. referred
to Mascagni's "hold-up methods and
unreasonable and un~warranted at
titude.'
The chief trouble according to the
composer. seems to be IN regard 20 the
manner Of payment Tor the concerts
