The trial waa a sen- one, on account of tbs promt- ' the parties Involved. At 10:30 o'clock the croft and the audience were called to attention and Grand Master Banks called on the Grand Secretary to read the Invitation from the, authorities to the Grand Lodge to lay the cornerstone. This iwas follewed by an Invocation by Grand Chaplain Burrows, and the usual testing of this cornerstone by the square, the level and the plumb. When the proper officer; had attested that tho craftsmen had done their work properly, the emblems of the order—corn, symbolic of plenty: wine, symbolic of Joy, and oil, symbolic of peace — were cast upon the stone, within w!*ch had previously boeir placed by Acting Grand Secre tary Miller th’ following articles: Copy of the Scriptures, Report of City Schools for 190S-09; list of Board of Education, list of committees of Board of Education, list of City Council and city officers, list of county officers copy of "Oeorgla in tho War of IS61- 65," by C.

In this he has the same rights as other men. As to whether or not they will accept his invitation with all tho restrlstlons put upon it, Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Fairbanks are competent to settle, and both settled It as you would expect an ( American to do. In all this nobody has a right to criticise either party. "The real trouble Is found In what lies back of It all. Tho Pope’s side as given out by his representatives Is that tho Methodists—and by the way. It Is not my church, but the Northern Methodists— have been using means In their work offensive to tho Pope. Two charges are made, first that there Is a lot of poor and needy people around the Vatican upon whom the Methodists spent money and won to their chureU and secondly, that they exposed for sale, and did sell books that were far from complimen tary to the Pope and the Catholic church. I have heard no plea from the other side, but on general princi pals I guess they plead guilty, both sides agreeing on facts, but differing on their Interpretation of facts.
