March 6 —Young Theodore Roosevelt, eldest son of the is going to spend a few months in the wilderness hunt- ing. among oth#r things, an Ovis poli, described by him as the “granddaddy of all mountain sheep,” he announced last night. With his brother Kermit scientist, George K. Cherry, Roosevelt will head an_expedition sent out by the Field Museum of Chicago into eastern Turkestan. The party expects to leave New York next month and return next Autumn, intervening months territory never before covered by an American group. Among the main specimen prizes which the expedition hopes to get in addition to the rare mountain sheep, Col. Roosevelt said, are a long-haired tiger, the markor, a particularly large mountain goat; the Yarkand ag, the great ibex, of the Thian Mountains, and the goitered and a Col. Few Such Specimens.

The call of the “red gods—gods of the hunt in desolate lands"—will bring them into mountain land where every mile stands on end, the colonel added. The inhabitants of the terri- tory are mainly Mongols and Chinese. Kermit Roosevelt was with his father on the latter’s trip to Africa and to the “River of Doubt.” The expedition, it was said, will at no time be near that headed by Roy Champan Andrews, which is to penetrate Mongolia.

A captive beetle was placed under a large milk bottle made from heavy glass.
