Mrs. Maynard lietrick of Berne underwent a Major emergency oper(ation at the local hospital this morno — FINAL TRIBUTE FOR TAFT HELI) AT WASHINGTON (CONTINUED TrOM ONE) i where Taft was seen almost daily 1 in recent years taking his daily ! I walks. He knew hundreds in that ‘ ; neighborhood by sight and many t a small child in that vicinity was J sad today at the loss of the big i hearty genial who so often stopp- ' ed to pat a little head. t At the request of Mrs. Taft J eulogies were omitted from the I order of service, and Dr. Ulysses f iG. B. Pierce, pastor of All Soul's I Church, substituted poetry, Wadsi J worth's "Happy Warrior." TennyII son's "Ode on the Death of the | Duke of Wellington," and "CrofiI sing the Bar." ■■ The character of the man who I though defeated in 1912 when he «i carried only two states yet lived I with such good-humored philosophy as to win the affection of I the whole nation, probably could I I be no better depicted than in the ’ "Happy Warrior:" ’ "Who. if he rise to station of command, I Rises by open means: and there will stand On honorable terms, or else retire, And in himso'f possess his own desire; Who comprehends his trust, and to the same Keeps faitliful with a singleness of aim: And therefore does not stoop, nor lie in wait For wealth, or honors, or for worldly state; Whose powers shed round him in the common strife, Or mild concerns of ordinary life, A constant Influence, a peculiar I grace; i But who, if lie be called upon Io face Some awful moment, to which heaven Ims joined (Great issues, good or bad for human kind.

he foresaw; . Or if an unexpected cell succeed, I Come when it will, is equal to the need." The war department arranged to have the long trip front the church to Arlington made without military escort to avoid wearing delay on the widow and the other grief wearied members of the family. At tlie entrance to the cemetery. however, another escort was ordered to pick tip the cortege. It included the navy band, and details from the army, and marine corpe. The honor of soundiug taps over the lowered casket went to Staff Sergeant Frank Wltchey of Ft. Myer, Va., who blew the laM bugle at the funerals of Woodrow WUson, Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood and the unknown eoldier. All ranking officials of the government from President Hoover and the seven surviving members of the supreme court, arranged to be at the graveside. The body of the former president and chief Justice was carried up a roped-off runway Into the rotunda, where it was laid in state upon the catafalque where Lincoln. Garfield, McKinley and Hard lug lay. The crowd at the capitol had increased to more than 3,000 by the time the procession arrived. All government buildings around the capitol flew new American flags at half staff and these were whipped up by a stiff breeze. The military (tail-bearers were lined up underneath the capitol step*. When the body arrived they marched with military precision toward the caisson. The cassion was carried Into the capitol by the military pall bearers between a long line of soldiers, who stood stiffly at attention. They had been waiting there more than an hour. A muted bugle sounded as the casket was carried Into the rotunda and placed on the catafalque. At the head of the catafalque was placed a floral wreath from the President and Mrs. Hoover composed of butterfly roses, delphin'i and mignonettes against a background of maiden hair fern. • When the casket was in place, the flag covering it was drawn down and the top removed. It revealed the head of the former chidf justice, who was-attired in the robes of the supreme court. The face was thin and drawn, but there was something of the old serenity in the expression. The public was allowed to file by in a double row, one line on each side of the casket. One of the first to view the body was a tousle-haired boy in a raincoat. The silent ceremony was conducted with a minimum of eon fusion, the double line of people entering one door and passing out the other. Many wiped tears out of their eyes as they passed through tlie exit door. Pay Respect New York.
