TAFT WILL BE SWORN INTO OFFICE ON CENTURY OLD BOOK.

FORMER PRECEDENTS TO BE BROKEN Mr. Roosevelt Not to Return to White House After Inaugural Ceremonies, But Takes Train Immediately for Oyster Bay-Mrs. Taft May Ride With Her Husband. Washington, Mar. William H.

Taft will take oath of office as president of the United States on the century old Bible which belongs to the Supreme Court of the United States, and by it kept in custody. There is a touch of sentiment in this decision which Mr. Taft announced Sunday night with the statement that become a member of the Supreme Court his oath would have been taken on identically the same book. During the past few days there have been many offers of Bibles to the prospective president. He has not declined to receive the gifts, but his answer has been that it will be imposible for him to receive them the purpose intended.

It has been custom of for, past presidents to use a new or an historic Bible in taking their oaths of office, and each has retained the book thereafter, Mr. Taft will make no claim on the Bible of his choice, and it will go back to the archives of the ancient court for which there are many evidences of a reverent respect and a lingering of the fondness on the part of Mr. Roosevelt's successor. Precedent in another ancient inaugural detail is to be broken next Thursday in the intention of President Roosevelt to go from the inaugural ceremonies at the capital direct to his train for Oyster Bay, and not return to the White House in the carriage with Mr. Taft.

In this event there will be a vacant seat in the presidential carriage its return to the White House and it is now proposed to have this seat 00- cupied by Mrs. Taft. The decision, however, has not been made, subject is under consideration. From morning church services at the Unitarian church of which he is a member, Mr. Taft Sunday went to the White House, where an hour was spent with President Roosevelt in going over the portion of Mr.

Taft's inaugural address which discusses what is to be policy respecting the foreign relations of the country. Mr Taft said that no material changes, if any, would be made the address as the result of the conference. He added that he had previously gone over the whole document with Mr. Roosevelt. Mr.

and Mrs. Taft were luncheon guests of Senator and Mrs. Hale and from 4 until 6:30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, an informal reception was given Mrs. Taft by Miss Boardman. Many persons called and as the Presidentelect was also present the affair took on pretentious proportions.
