A* lt>e former president left the hail he waa mobbed by the cheering crowda that broke through the cor dons of police, a aquad of mounted men, flourishing Bab res, rescued Mr Rooaevelt with dlfflculty and he waa whisked off by automobile to tb? American embasay. The kalaer and the kalaerln were among the foremoat In the audience, which Included, besides other mem beca of the royal family. Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg. and the llrat men of the nation in Qfflclal and military life, bealdea a lathering of aclentlata, historians and other men of scholarship auch as haa seldom been aeen-before. By a coincidence. Mr. Rooaevelt apoke In the Aula, or hall, where the kalaer, on October it, 1906. roae dra matically after an addreaa by Prof. John W. Burgess of Columbia' Unl veralty. and cried for three cheera for Theodore Rooaevelt. Long before the time aet for the addreaa the unlveralty was surround ed by crowda and by the time Mr. Rooaevelt arrived, fully 20.000 peo ple were on hand. In aplte of the aplrlt of mourning pervading the public as well as the court over the death of King Edward the thronga were remarkably demonatrative. Nearly every .one of tbe 1.B00 attfdents of the unlveralty waa pres ent, but outalde. Scarcely a handful of them got Into the hall. For weeks all Germany ban been besieging the authorities for Invitations to the lec ture, and but a fraction of tbe appli cants could be accommodated in thte hall, with its seating capacity of btit a mere 500. Enrich Schmidt, rector of the unl veralty; has been laboring aince the flrat announcement of the lecture, with a specific staff of clerka. prepar ing for the event of today. The taak of writing refuaals of tickets kept several persona occupied constantly for msny weeks. So few were the available Invitations that the ataff of the American embaaay secured but sixteen all told ? enough for the members and their flmllfe*. In the morning Mr. Roosevelt went through a courae of preparation for the apeech under the direction of Dr. Franks!, the throat apeclallat, who la attending him while here. When the aesalon waa over. Dr. Frankel announced that th4re waa a further marked improvement in Mr. Roosevelt'a condition. The ez-prealdent rested throughout the morning. When at laat be entered an automobile and wient from the em baaay. where he la staying, to the unl veralty, he appeared in excellent aplr lt*. a cro4d had gathered 'before ;the embassy, and as he appeared he was cheered. On tbe atreeta leading to the hall he waa recognized and re ceived further salutes. But It waa at the ulnverslty that the enthualaam pasaed all precedent. Aa Mr. Rposevelt and the kalaer appeared together, the throogs burst out into a deep, full toned roar which could be heard far. ' The way Into tbe hall was lined with troops, keeping back the Intrud ers,. and as the speaker paased through to the platform be was aa Aited. 1 Mggjjgjg __!_J sSBSDEuS You have never known the: full beau ty of saCred songs until you have heard "them on the Victor.
