The body of Mark Twain began today Its last jour-t-ney from the sunny chamber where it had laid In Stormfleld to the spot In Kiod's Acre where It shall rest at last r besides those whom he "loved long "since and lost awhile." ! Funeral services were said in the old brick; Presbyterian Church at Fifth avenue and Thirty-seventh street, this Kjlty, by Dr. Henry A.

Early tomorrow morning the body will leave for Elmlra over the Lacka wanna Railroad. Organ lrelnle Is Only Music. In accordance with the wishes of the family. The services today were brief and simple. The only music was an organ prelude, the '"Death of Asa," by Craig. There was a modest display of 'white lilies, lilies of the valley, white ' and red roses, orchids and sweet peas about the coffin. Those who wished were permitted to view the features. Invitation was by card, but after the : friends of the family had been seated, the church was well filled by the gen era! public. In nil, the services took but half an hour. In his address. Dr. Vandyke said in part: "This Is not the place nor the time for an eulogy of the famous writer, the honored and representative Amer- lean. Here we are all of us simply i human. The touch of grief is upon us. Wo think of Mark Twain, not as the relebrlty. but the man whom we knew end loved. Twain, l'rodded Only the False. "Those who know his work as a whole know that under the lambent and Irrepressible humor which was his gift there was a foundation of serious Thought and nohle affections and de sires. The mark of his higher humor is that It .does not laugh at the weak, the helpless, il.e true, the innocent only at the false, the pretentious, the vain, the hypocritical. "Mark Twain laughed many of the world's false claimants out of court ; and entangled many of the world's false witnesses In the net of ridicule. He touched the absurdities of life with not unkindly mockt-ry and made us feel somehow the infinite pathos of life's reality. No one tan say that he ever failed to reverence the purity, the frank. Joyful, genuine nature of lit tle children, of whom Christ has said, 'Of such Is the kingdom of Heaven.' " Daughter Funeral lieealled. A hearse among the green lanes of Spriug Is a sad thing to see. and as those 'watting !it Redding station to ilay saw the white horses and the black van now and again between the pencilled tracery of the willows, there rose the memory of how the same hearse had last wended the same wind ing road from the same house one Christmas night. .lean Clemens had died on Christmas eve, while her Christ inas tree stood in the living-room at Ktormriehl fully garnished and un touched.

Leaf was returning to his rooms, after escorting a girl student home from a dance, when he was met by a crowd of about 250 students. He was accompanied by J. C. Shelton. who, ac cording to the story told by bystanders, drew a revolver and threatened to shoot any one touching the editor. Shelton was persuaded to give up the revolver, which he passed to his brother. J. E. Shelton. Shelton Is alleged then to have said that he would light any member of the crowd and he was thereupon struck and knocked down, and Leaf was car ried a quarter of a mile to the lake and thrown into the water just as a photographer took a flashlight of the scene.

Guests and em ployes of a downtown hotel last night were interested in a white hen that has the features of a human being a clearly defined nose and Hps in place of the beak and mouth of a chicken, and feet like knobs instead of claws. "The chicken is S months old," said Mike Singer, one of the hotel porters, who owns the fowl, "and is compelled to eat from the hand of a person, being unable to pick up food like the other chickens. It cannot scratch and does not cackle nor make other noises like a. chicken. It has laid two eggs, both of which were flat on one side and of extraordinary size." Russia' Gets Rockefeller Coin.

MISS ETHEL IS APPROVED Journals Pronounce Her -'Splendid Blonde" Ex-President Dons Silk Hat for Stale Occasions. BY GEORGE GRANTHAM BAIN. ROME, April 5, (Special correspond ence.) Ex-President Roosevelt has had a characteristically energetic time at Rome. Surrounded by Secret Service men in plain clothes unmistakably ldentiiied, however, by their blue cloth caps he has rushed from palace to em bassy, from the colossal monument be ing erected in memory of Victor Eman uel to the Pantheon, where that King is buried. He has dined with the King and motored with the King and had a thoroughly strenuous time. Incidentally he has repeated the experience' of ex-Vice-President Fairbanks with the Pope, and he returns to America with out seeing the holy father. The visit to Naples was an excursion. There was little formality about it. Mr. Roosevelt was the guest of the Prefect of Naples at the opera in the San Carlo Theater, and there he was acclaimed by a large number of American tour ists in the audience. But the people of Naples took little interest in his visit. His reception in Rome had been very different. He tmveled from Na ples to Rome In one of the royal saloon carriages attached to the 2 o'clock train. It was a compartment and observation car not unlike our own private cars in arrangement, but somewhat . more .or nate. The Italian railroad cars are cheese boxes compared with the steel constructions used on' American roads. But there are Jeweled glass screens in the interior and the cushions of crimson run almost to the top of the car, and a library had been provided for Mr. Roosevelt, the fame of the 100-book li brary which he carried through the hunting fields of Africa having reached the Italian "government. When the train pulled Into the sta tion at Rome the Ambassador .was In waiting with Count Tozzonl, the King's master of ceremonies, and other offi cials, and the Roosevelt family was re ceived formally in the royal waiting room. Thence they went to the Hotel Beau Site, in automobiles, and then di rect to the American Embassy to dinner. Aspirate Troubles Italians. There was quite a crowd at the staT tion largely Americans for Home is crowded with American tourists. They cheered the ex-President as he left the station. The American cheer is some tiling unknown to Italy, and the local papers described it as "applause and urrah" the aspirate sound being prac tically unknown In the Latin tongues. Frenchmen always say "alio" into the telephone. Another serious difficulty of the Ital ian Journals is the name of Kermit. They usually render it "Hermitt." Eth el Roosevelt evidently comes up to the Italian standard of beauty for she is described by the newspapers of Rome as "a splendid blonde, gracious in per son and elegant in attire." The first day of Mr. Roosevelt's stay in Rome was -Monday. He began his activities promptly at 9:30 by driving In a closed automobile to the Quirlnal to call on the King. But on the even ing before he had supplied a sensation by making public his correspondence with the Vatican, which resulted in the abandonment of his call oh the Pope, because the Pope refused to grant him an audience unless he promised not to call on the representatives of any other denomination. Only one of the Rome papers had this story, the others calm ly announcing that the ex-President would pay his respects to the Pope on Tuesday. Journalism In Italy Is rather easy-going. The one paper which told the story, represented the Pope as much THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, ROOSEVELT IN ROME, TAKEN CORRESPONDENT. concerned because of the large sums of money the church receives from Amer ica and the possible effect of such a slight to one as popular in his country as Mr. Roosevelt. Rain Drives Crowd Away. The call at the Quirlnal lasted from 10 o'clock until nearly 11:30. Meantime a crowd chiefly Americans gathered on the sidewalk opposite the entrance and watched for the ex-President to come out. But a smart shower drove them away Just before the gates were flung open and the automobile of the ex-President dashed away. At the Pantheon, where he proceeded Immediately, he was met by, a much larger crowd. There was shelter there and several hundred Americans gathered around the tombs of King Humbert and King Victor Emanuel, which axe on opposite sides of the rotunda. On" each of these,' in turn, Mr. Roosevelt laid a wreath. As iie passed from one to an other he got a taste of the weather, for the Pantheon is illuminated through a hole, in the center of the dome, and through this, the heavy rain passed, flooding the pavement. The conditions for photography were almost prohibitive, yet Italians with cameras swarmed over the altars to the great annoyance of the sacristan who was kept busy pulling them down. There was a great but fu tile clicking of shutters. KJn; Is Gracious. From the' Pantheon Mr. Roosevelt drove to the Embassy for luncheon, and then to his hotel, where he held a re ception. It Is related in the annals of the Dutch Treat Club that Italian Kings are very proud. They cat ; spaghetti long and loud. It was an exceptional honor extended to an American citizen, therefore, when the King, pink of cheek and precise In military attire, called at the Hotel Beau Site on Tuesday morning to take Mr. Roosevelt for a motor ride. The King descended from his car and entered the hotel. Then he came out, escorting Mr. Roosevelt, .who took a seat at his right hand. For the ceremonial observances at Rome, Mr. Roosevelt had abandoned his slouch hat and appeared in frock coat and "silk hat, well gloved. Remem bering the incidents of the Philadelphia convention which named Mr. Roosevelt forv the Vice-Presidency, I recalled the picture of him riding beside Senator Piatt to the convention hall, the old slouch hat on his head. Senator Piatt tried to persuade him that the dignity of the Governor of New York required that he should wear a silk hat, but he would have none of it. Theodore Roosevelt has developed several sides of his character since he was Governor of New York. Contrast Is Marked. There was a curious contrast between the ex-President and the King as they eat in the royal automobile side by side. The King, pink and precise, with calm, unwrlnkled face, showed no trace of the responsibilities of governing a great and Increasing race of men in a thickly peopled country, where politics Is even more constantly active than In our own. The King was brought up to the inher itance of his responsibilities. Theodore Roosevelt, though he is in fine physical condition, shows in every line of his face the strain under which he has been in his fight for "my policies." A dozen secret service men kept pace with the automobile on bicycles, much as the President's carriage was guarded its .Washington detectives, during Roose fe i If Vv;:' ?

It visited the barracks and the Piazza Venezia, where a splendid monument to Victor Emmanuel is under construction a monument rivaling in magnificence those of the ancient Ro mans and which, standing at the head of the Corso, is plainly visible from the Pincio and. from the summits of Rome's other hills. Returning to the hotel before noon, Mr. Roosevelt turned as he left the mo tor car and continued, in good English, the conversation he had been having with the King. The King rose to' bid him good -by and returned his bow with a military salute. In the afternoon Mr. Roosevelt visited the Palatine and studied the ruins there.
