He said:, "We have come here today to attend the funeral of Mrs. McKinley. Prealdent McKln Ity rendered great services to the Nation as a public man, but no greater than he and Mr McKinley rendered by a home life which could well be an example to all our Nation. The essential things, after all, are the home ly things. President, McKinley served his country aa a cltlien should serve his country in war and peace. But it was In his own home, perhaps, that In devotion to the loving woman we have Just buried he (rave the best example to us all.

Four songs were suns;, the same that were sung at the funeral of Presi dent McKinley, and the service was the simple ritual of the Methodist ' Episcopal Church. The house was roped off to re strain the crowds which thronged the neighboring thoroughfares. A broad lavender ribbon fluttered from the door to Indicate a house of mourning and only a few intimate' friends visited the house during the forenoon. Aside from the ropds strung along the streets, there was nothing to Indicate that a ceremony of unusual Import was about to take plaoe. It was not until the funeral services were actually being performed that the streets became crowded. Arrival of Roosevelt. President Roosevelt arrived at 12:45 P.
