 At first stunned by the news. Chicago recovered quickly and the demonstration staged upon the cardinals return was memorable one.
 Thousands of persons lined the streets as the procession of 50000 escorted him from his train. His people presented him with a check of million dollars for is great seminary, St. Mary of the Lake.
 In that year, there was poison plot that shocked the nation, SC near to the Cardinal did it strike.
 At banquet In his honor, hun dreds of civic leaders and Catholic laity were stricken with sudden illness A deadly poison was found in soup served the entire assembly Several who ate it, later died. The Cardinal, however, had not touched the preparation and was not i'll.
 Sponsored Wide Building
 As Cardinal, he continued his extensive program of building. An unequalled school system, a per- petuated Roman Catholic church, and organization of the Associated Catholic Charities of Chicago were his most significant works.
 The Eucharistic Congress in Chi cago in 1926 was his reward. It was the most impressive religious cere- mony the country had known and brought more and more distinction to the Middle Vests cardinal.
 As a religious leader, he has had few equals.

 But 1t was in the hearts of men he achieved more.
 Welcomed as Cardinal in 1924
 A crowd of 50,000 moved in the procession welcoming him back from Rome as Cardinal in 1924. A million Roman Catholics went from all parts of the world to Chicago for the first International Eucharis- tic Congress held in America. Almost a million more joined in the public celebration of the closing of his sil,. yer jubilee year in 1884.
 Such tumultuous ovation could only be tribute to religious leader.

 The young scholars brilliancy as a student at Manhattan College led President Cleveland to offer him an appointment to the United States Naval Academy. But he re- fused. A dream which had its beginning years before while he served as an acolyte at St. Nicholas church drew him nearer the church
