BEGIN HERE TODAY Robert Foran, newspaper corre- spondent, accompanies the Theodore Roosevelt expedition into Africa in 1909, They arrive at' Mombasa, the ‘“gateway of British East Africa,” and then make the railroad journey to thelr first camp on the game-crowded Kapiti Plains, With Colone} Roosevelt are his son, Ker- mit, and three sclentific members of his staft—Major Edgar A, Mearns, || Edmund Heller and J. Allen Loring. After a wonderfully successful shooting trip in the Bofik country, the expedition camps for more hunt« ing at a farm called Sajgal. Pro ceeding next to Nalvasha, the part meets with more good sport. Foran and Colonel Roosqvelt set out to shoot_a pelican, for the museum. The hunt is unsuccessful, however, NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Kermit and Mearns had been out after spring-haas the previous night, and had heen fairly successful shooting them with the aid of lan- terns, They had not got back to bed in camp until after 8 o’clock, We found Mearns up and having breakfast, when we reached camp after our unsuccessful hunt after pellcans; Kermit, however, was still sleeping off the efforts of* his night hunting exertions, After breakfast, Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit and myself—~having now se- cured a pair of oars for the boat— started out once more after the pell- cans. THe Colonel sat in the bow with his rifle across his knees and a shot-gun at his side; Kermit sat in the stern with his two guns, while I rowed and a native gun-bearcr steered for me. Roosevelt made a very pretty shot at two Egyptian geese, and dropped them both; they were on the wing, and it was a difficult shot. After we had picked them up from the water, we saw the pelicans. But this time they were only two of them, instead of four, As we gradually neared them, with as little noise as possible, Colonel Roose- velt put his rifie to his shoulder |and prepared to shoot. 1 rowgd the boat to within 50 yards of them, |and then stopped rowing as I was afraid of alarming them, Taking |steady aim and allowing for the gentle rocking of the boat, Roose- velt fired. . Away flew the two big birds, and we thought he had missed them. Suddenly, however, one of them flopped down into the water, and | lay motionless on its side.

I didn’t have any luck this trip-——not a single lion.”* It was Selous who spoke, and his | voice was inexpressly sad and dis- appointed. He stood talking to | Theodore Roosevelt on the railroad | platform at Nairobi. - Our train had | just come in from Naivasha, and |we found Selous waiting for it to | proceed onward to Mombasa, where he was to embark for home. He had just completed a two- months' shooting trip with McMiilan, | Williams and Judd, the professional hunter. He had not even had the | chance of a shot at a llon; yet Wil- liams had killed two casily, and had been. badly mauled by a third who charged after being mortally | wounded, His gun-bearer had | pluckily killed it over him and thus had saved his master's life. “But Judd had|a remarkable ad- [venmre." went op the gentle voice | ot Selous, as the two men sat side by side on & benth on the platform. “Judd and I saw a couple of llon- es, and galloped after them. | That was in the Molo district. Judd was some eighty yards or so behind | me, riding .a mule. I suddenly missed one of the lionesses, but car- rled on after the other. The other crouched behind a thick bush. She Ist me pass, and then sprang at Judd She “was about ten yards or wse from Judd, when he saw her; and e firad at her frem his hip, never hoping to hit her but just praying | | |and that she might be turned. As he fired, his mule bucked him off, and when he landed, he found that he had fallon almost touching theé ljone! Judd quickly reloaded; bug the lloness Jay on her side and never moved, Judd rose to his feet quickly and examined her cautiousiy. To his amazement he found that she was dead, “We found on examination that Judd's chance shot had”sent a bullet through her eyes and killed her in- stantaneously. There was not even & mark on the skin' “By gosh!” exclaimed Roosevelt, ‘'What a remarkable incident! I bet Judd's mighty proud of that agreed Selous, as he rose to shake hands and . wish . Colonel Roosevelt’ goodby and good luck for the remainder of his trip. ~ Colonel Roosevelt, Kermit, Daw- son and myself had left Naivasha for Nalrobi at 7 o'clock that morning. Cunninghame was to follow by a special train later with the Sotik specimens and Kermit's pony for the meeting of the Nairobi Turt Club, The three naturalists were to stay at Naivasha until our return about a week later, The traffic manager's own saloon coach had been attached to the train for Colonel Roosevelt's comfort, but we all rode at frequent intervals on oo o e e iv— ROOSEVELT AT THE MISSION NEAR NAIROBI the cowcatcher seat. ~ We reached Nairobi at mid-day and found the platform crowded with people who had come to welcome the ex-presi- dent.on his return ffom the Sotik. McMillan, who was to be his host in Nalrobi, was there . with Belous to meet him, and Roogevelt and Sclous were soon busy comparis the results of their two sofaria. It was a very keen disappointment to Colonel Roosevelt that he was not to have ay opportunity to en- joy a fortnight's hunting in the company of Selous, as he had hoped. Selou® had to hasten home. This was to have been Selous' last trip to Africa; but, as it will be remem- bered, he returned there during the World war and died gloriously as he had lived, while leading his na- tive soldlers against the Germans, He was game to the last, won the Distinguished Service Order at the age of 70 for gallantry on active service, and died as he would have wished. b Nairobi was filled with people from all over the country for the meeting of the Nairobi Turf club and the public banquet to Theodore Roosevelt had brought everyone to the capital. Raes week in Nairobi is always a gay time, but this par- ticular week was to be more than usually brilliant on account of the fortunate presence of the ex-presi- dent of the United States. One long succession of festivities had been arranged for weeks in advance, and not Colonel Roosevelt and Kermit be- ing entertained at lunch, dinner or some other social funetion. The Nairobl club gave a big ball in his honor, at which both Colonel | Roosevelt and Kermit danced vigor- ously, And during this festive week, Colonel Roosevelt planted a tree outside the offices of the Boma Trading Company, beside one that had been recently planted by the Duke of Connaught. On this occa- sion he was presented with a very fine silver-mounted Arab knife In a native-wood box. * The stewards of the Fast African Turf Club gave a dinner to Colonel Roosevelt and Kermit on the first night of the races, and it was a real pleasure to see how keenly Roose- velt entered Into the gay spirit of that gathering, i3 During dinner he had touched his lips to a glass of champagne once, then had fallen back upop lemon-squashes. His pglass of champagne remained beside his place all the evening, as full of the golden fluld as when it was poured out, (Continued in Our Next Issue) . 666 is the most speedy, remedy we know for Constipation,Biliousness,Colds, Headaches and Malarial Fever, Delicious!
