THE ROOSEVELT HOMESTEAD.

Vice President RoOsevelts homestead
near Oyster Bay, y. Y. is an ideal
country seat, aud the Roosevelt fami-
ly is a very old one in the neighbor-
hood The house is large, homelike
and countrifed, quite unpretentious. 1t
crowns the very topmost peak Of Saga
more hill.
The approach TO the house, through
forest and meadow, is beautiful and
refreshing in the extreme. But 1t is
not until after one reaches the top Of
Sycamore hill that the full beauty Of
the magnificent panorama is revealed.
The view of the bay, the headlands,
with the Long Island sound and the
Connecticut coast stretching for miles
and resting against the deep blue OF
the sea, is SO restful, so altogether
lovely, that it cannot soon fade from
the memory.
The library, which is a splendid
room directly Off the main hall, con-
tains about 5000 books. The interior
is one Of enchantment TO the genuine
book lover A big open fireplace
stretches across one end Of the room.
Above it is magnificent display Of
the heads Of deer, rams, antelopcs,
mountain sheep and other trophies of
Colonel Roosevelts skill as n hunter
The floors are covered with rugs
made Of the skins of lions, bears, buff
faloes and panthers, all victims Of the
vice presidents gun. In fact the whole
house is adorned with trophies of the
chase.
Here it is that most of his books and
articles. of which he has written many,
were brought into being.

enthusiastic admirer and ardent helper
Of her husband in his political career.

medium height and has dark brown

has been more or less an invalid, and

RoosEVELT's ROUGH RIDERS.

Naturally enough, Roosevelt would
not be content to sit behind desk
while there was fighting going on. lie
submitted his resignation TO the presi-

pointment upon General Lees staff
Then came the rough rider idea the
seventh phase of Roosevelt's career

experience as q captain in the Eighth

PLAY TRICK on DEMPSEY
Detective In Made the Victim of q
Medical College
Joke.

Detective NJ +. Dempsey has recently be-
come outspoken in his denunciation of haz-
Ing tho reason being that he has had a
taste of 1t himself
The other day Dempsey was sent to the
Omaha Medical college to investigate the
theft of letter containing a draft for s6S.
The draft was the property of student
named II. j. Arbogast. better known to his
fellow students as "Abernicht," and, en-
closed In it's envelope, had been left in a
cabinet OF pigeonholes in the library, where
II was supposed the owner would call for It,
II would have been like getting money
from homo for Abernicht II somebody
hadn't stolen II.
So Detective Dempsey has been sleuthing
around the college for week or more. He
where he could watch the mail cabinet and
this bench ts Just under the landing OF the
staircase on the second floor.
Every day the victim OF the theft would
inquire:
ANY clue to the thief"
"Abcrncht," Dempsey would reply.
Finally the students became a triie res
tive. Some of them wanted to toss Demp-
scy in a blanket. but the majority prevailed
30 they got a picking vat full OF some kind
of villainous fluid. carried 1t to the landing
Mt the head OF the stairs and dumped 1t
down upon Dempsey's head.
Dempsey reported the matter to police
headquarters and the bench at the medical
college is now vacant. At last accounts
Abernicht was still out his SOS.
