He has been captured and tortured by religious fanatics in! Asia, attacked by cannibals in Af frozen nearly to death in Kamachatka, tumbled out of his recently invented aeroplane, and suffered all sorts of uniqne misfortunes, but this was his first experience with a shipwreck, and he frankly’ says he prefers the dangers that one mets on dry land. | Here to Advise Roosevelt. Ten days hence he will lecture before the International Geographical Society in Washington, but that is an tne dental detail of his visit; the main pur- pose ‘is to tell President Roosevelt wha! to eat and what to wear In Africa; how to avoid the terrible fe- vers that lay low the unwary travel- ler; how to dodge the polsonous tr sects and vipers, and how to chase a raging bull clephant and shoot him in the neck. The President has been a warm friend of Mr. Landor for ten years, and the explorer has been a ‘re- quent guest at the White House. Mr. Landor is under the average height; he weighs 130 pounds, and has | kept at that weight Since he was a} youth.

He ts 2 fellow of the Royal Geographicaj So- | ciety of London, belongs to the greatest scientific bodies in the world and is the author of numerous works on travel.
