Today we stand at the bier of one
who played many parts, carried many
burdens, used many smiles, laughed
gayly along the way through storm and
strife and when the summons came
Sank to rest like one lying down to
pleasant slumbers."
After illness fell across his way, over
long period of time, through the wear
isome length of q hard-fought battle, he
sought TO win back his failing strength
without avail. Through the long
night watches, often in sleeplesS vigil,
he saw the vanishing of all his forces,
until at last the conflict was over.
Sleeps Peacefully.
In this way did the final curtain so
down on the earthly stay Of William
Howard Taft In this way was his
'life's sweet manuscript closed" and in
this way through tear-dimmed eyes did
we see that "He giveth His beloved
Sleep"
Peacefully he sleeps under the Stars
and Stripes Of the country he loved so
well, while over the silent form, in Q
last act, the mystical hands of Fate
draw cloth of gold woven through
with threads of deepest purple; 1t covers
a statesman, q President, a jurist. and

ST. JOHNS PASTOR
PAYS TAFT TRIBUTE
Declares He Possessed Best
of Christian Qualities.
Sanford Also Praised.

"All the qualities which have made the
Christian name powerful in the world
were found In William Howard Taft,
DR.. Robert Johnston said yesterday at
the morning service in st. Johns
Church, of which Mrs. Taft is a men,
Der. The speaker also eXtolled the late
Justice Edward T. Sanford Of the SUI
preme Court, whose death occurred a
few hours before Mr.. Taft's.
I'm the person of Judge Sanford" the
minister continued, was represented
all the gentleness and flrmness of good
man, one who was Of the great COM
pany Of quiet, unobtruSive citizens who
preserved the atmosphere of the old
American tradition. His passing is OBJ
scured in a measure by the departure
hence Of another, but he is remem-
bered before God."
Speaking Of Mr.. Taft, DR.. Johnston
said: To-day we should thank God for
his character, and not forget the saying
Of Ecclesiastes: Let us now praise
famous men and our fathers that begat
u.s."
Industrial Leaders Heroes.
"There is nothing SO unworthy as a
mind that cannot appreciate greatness
Uuhappily, our age is an industrial one
the captains OF industry, with their i'm
mense wealth and their greater power,
are the heroes Of the populace. Achieve
ment in a worldly sense has become too
completely identified with financial and
an equivalent success.
Yet William Howard Taft stands
out as mountain of magnificent char
acter in a range of pygmies rich in
golden ore. All the qualities which
have made the Christian name powerful
IN the world were found in him.
Called American Patriot.
"He was simple and sincere, to the
distraction Of politicians; humble in
highest Office, to the amazement of
lovers of the cheap footlight on the
human stage; truthful, to the confound-
ing Of partisans of puny statecraft;
loyal to the truth he saw, to the irri-
tation Of those who cared more for
opinion than truth. He was an Ameri-
can patriot and true servant of the
world, Q lover Of man and a servant
Of the most high God"
In conclusion, DR.. Johnston said that
those who loved the tender, human
being that he was are comforted in the
memory of a blameless life and in the
fact that they will, in the generations
10 come. call the Nation happy that
possessed such q son."

ROME AND VATICAN
PROFOUNDLY GRIEvED
Taft Remembered Especially for
Part He Took in Settling Philip
pine Religious Question.
BY the Associated Press.

~ the AS6OClALe0 EfeSS
ROME, March 10.-The news OF
former President Taft's death produced
a profound impression here, especially
ct the Vatican, where his name ID still
recalled with respect, although most Of
those he dealt with in 1908 regarding
settlement Of religious questions In the
Philippines are dead long ago.
First among them to 60 were Pope
Leo XIII, his secretary of state, Car
dinal Rampollo, and his assistant secre-
tary Of state, who later became Pope
Benedict XIV. The last among them to
die was Cardinal Merry Del Val, who
prelate.
There are still some old Vatican &C.
clesiastics who remember with pleasure
Mr.. Taft's jovial, frank, digntfed per-
Sonality and the charming manner
which enabled him after three months
Of patient negotiations to settle one Of
the most important problems which
arose from the Spanish War.
Among these Is Pietro Gasparri, who
then was not q cardinal, but a simple
titular bishop. He always felt adInira-
ton for MIR. Taft, whom he considered
one Of the most lovable of men, with q
superior and lofty mind. In connecs
ton with Mr.. Taft's death it was re.
called at the Vatican that his mission
had q thorough diplomatic character,
which gave him even greater powers
than those usually conferred upon an
Ambassador.
Mr.. Taft also presented letter from
President Roosevelt to Pope Leo. besides
Q present consisting of eight volumes
Of Roosevelt's literary works, which are
preserved In the Vatican library. Act
Ing a. Ambassador, Mr.. Taft called
upon the other Ambassadors accredited
to the Holy See.

Editor Thrashed
By Taft When He
Was Young Lawyer

BY the Associated Press.
william Howard Taft worked
on a newspaper at one time; at
another he put a publication out
Of business by thrashing the
editor.
while he was practicing law in
Cincinnati, his father ran Tor
governor of the State and was
defeated. A paper. described as
a blackmailing publication, print
ed an attack upon Alphonso
Taft that aroused the ire OF his
son.
Despite a reputation the editor
had as a prize fighter and leader
of a gang of hoodlumS, young VIII
liam Howard Taft went to the
Office and gave him a severe
thrashing. The editor left Gin
cinnati that night and the paper
never appeared again. A little
earlier in his career he had been
a reporter on the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette.
Two States may claim William
Howard Taft as one OF their dis
tinguiShed sons. He was elected
to the presidency as a citizen Of
Ohio and appointed Chief Justice
of the United States as citizen
of Connecticut.
The former State was the scene
of his early career. He became q
citizen of Connecticut after he
had left the presidency and &C
cepted the post Of dean Of the
Yale School Of Law.

An Adieu to William Howard Taft
By Mary Moore Mischler, Wife of Wendell W. Mischief,
for 26 Years Private Secretary Mr.. Taft

in letters Of silver, "a Brave Warrior. !"
Thus does he go to the rest he knew
too little Of here, wrapped in the mantle
Of many glories.
To assuage our grief at his .eaving,
we turn away and seek to remember
that after all "life is but q fitful fever"
and in our loneliness at his leaving, we
strive to remember that across the pages
Of the Book Of Life 1t Is written, III he
sleeps he does well"
Felt in Remote Places.
Over the vast land Of America, from
the highways and the hedges, the re-
mote corners and far reaches, the mes
sage Of his passing carries sorrow
mingled with an acute consciousness Of
loss. Still, again, in surcease Of the
personal, we may recall it was also writ
ten, "The good that men do live after
them" So will this gentle, benign
spirit remain here and from the plains
of its concentration cause the flowers
Of remembrance to bloom, and on the
hillsides Of history there will sometimes
fall the softening light of his ore-time
presence.
With wavering hearts and lasting
memory, we bid him Good night, until
in some fairer cline we may bid him
good morning."
