the clay with tneir queer little peaks.
 "As the weakening sun sank out Of sight beyond the mountains these signs of bird life gradually died away. Under the great pines the evening was still, with the silence of primeval desolation. The sense of sadness and loneliness, the melancholy of the wilderness came over me like a spell. Every slight noise made my pulse throb as l lay motionless on the rock gazing intently into the gather ing gloom. l began to fear that 1t would grow too dark to shoot before the griz- Ely came.
 Suddenly and without warning the great bear stepped out of the bushes and trod across the pine needles with such swift and silent footsteps that its bulk seemed unreal. It was very cau- tious, continually pausing to peer around, and once 1t stood upon its hind legs and looked long down the valley toward the red west As it reached the carcass I put a bullet between its shoulders It rolled over, while the woods resounded with it's savage roar ing. Immediately it struggled to Its feet and staggered off and fell again to the shot, squalling and yelling. Twice this was repeated, the brute being one of those bears which greet every wound with great outcry and sometimes seem to lose their feet when hit-although they will occasionally fight as savagely as their more silent brethren. In this case the wounds were mortal and the bear died before reaching the edge of the thicket."

 It has never been suggested that Theo- dore Roosevelt and Edith Kermit Carow were betrothed In their early youth, at the time when the Roosevelts and the Carows were two of the foremost fami- lies in New York and on terms of strong 1 intimacy with each other.
 Edith Carow, lovely and brilliant girl, was a constant guest at the RooseveF's. Her father was Charles Carow: 5her grandfather Isaac Carow, a<Wealthy shipping merchant, and her mother, Miss Gertrude Tyler, daughter of General Tyler, of Norwich. The girl was born at the old Carow mansion, at Fourteenth street and Union Square, on the spof where the Domestic building now stands. Later the family moved to Murray Hill. and Edith Carow, when young girl, was a pupil at Miss Comstock's school in West Fortieth street.
 There was hardly a week, during this boyhood and girlhood stage, that Theo- dore Roosevelt and Edith Carow did not meet. They were the best of comrades the most loyal of friends
 And the situation was so eminently agreeable and satisfying that 1t is not likely that this busyl lively young pair dwelt over much on it's possible romantic outcome.
 Then came separation. Young Theo- dore, with mind made up to startle the world, chose one of the most conservative spots on earth to accomplish 1t and en- tered Harvard University. Nor can any biography ever recount all the things he did there, from writing histories and practicing the arts of sportsmanship to falling in love.
 The Lees were one of the good. old families to whom Roosevelt's own excel lent social connections served as intro duction. Miss Alice Lee was one of the belles of Boston. The two met often, fell in love. and shortly after Roosevelt's graduation were married All this, how ever was to prove but a tragic incident. Young Mrs. Roosevelt lived but year or two. and died, leaving baby girl, her namesake.
 Grief-stricken, the young man went back to his own home. There was con- solation in the heartiness with which old friends greeted him and a special solace in the warm friendliness of his boyhood's comrade, Edith Carow.
 Miss Carow had all this time been on the most cordial terms with the Roose- velts and a constant friend of Theo- dore. Roosevelt's sister. now Mrs.

When New President
 Was Cowboy

From the Kansas City Journal.
 Theodore Roosevelt has always taken the West for just what 1t was. Born in the East, surrounded by infiuences-sociai and political-little appreciating the char acter or purpose of that portion of the nation lying between the Alleghanies and the Rockies, by some good chance of na- ture or fortune he has never misunder- stood the West. He has the respect, the confidence, the faith of every man of the West who is not blinded by partisanship or mistaken sectionalism. He may blum der in the higher official positions to which he Is advancing. So far. as the West Is concerned he has not blundered yet. He stands for Amercanism, which knows no sectionalism, and the spirit of the West is with him on the platform. It becomes of interest to know more of Mir. Roosevelt's life in the West and how he became one of us," as simply and unobtrusively as thousands have be- fore him. He was 27 years old when he came West-that is, fifteen years ago and after a buffalo hunt and some stalk ing of game in the Rockies, he engaged in cattle raising in the Bad Lands of North Dakota. Although he suffered some severe financial reverses from bliz- zards, he was a success as a cattleman. Not only that. but he made a good West ern citizen of himself he was popular with critical cowboys" and as to bust in broncho," he did that even at the expense of breaking three of his ribs.
 One who knew him well in the old days at Little Missouri or Medora, has written of his first appearance on the Bad Lands scene He penned:
 "When these lands were but waste and a cover for bad Indians, and worse whites. slender, fair-haired youn fellow stepped off the train at the litle, squalid shack town of Tis''@ Missouri. What the population lacked in numbers they made up in deviltry, and it is safe to say that tougher aggregation of great American citizens never went unhung than those who collected around the door of Big Mouth Bobs canvas saloon and watched the arrival of the dude tender foot MT. Roosevelt Cfor it was he) didn't care for the moral aspect of his surroundings. He wanted buffalo. and buffalo he got. He hired as guide young fellow named Sylvane Ferris, who thought 1t great sport to take a near sighted dude hunting buffalo in those ap-

WOOlNG AND WEDDING.
Second Wife the Sweetheart of His
 Boyhood.

To the new President matrimony has been no dull commonplace his wife no mere supervisor of home or tender of e.. .ldren. There is hardly one among the American statesmen of today whose life has been so charming love story, whose domestic relations have been more purely ideal.
 As for Mrs. Roosevelt, if it were con ceiyable that she could be persuaded to taIk to the public about the romance of her life, she would probably admit that Theodore Roosevelt has been it's single inspirat tion, the idol of her girlhood, her one incompatible hero from then till now.

 One day in the spring of 1886 some very exciting news was spread over New York Edith Carow, the 'invul- nerable" was engaged to marry Theo- oore Roosevelt.
 At first no one believed the announce ment. This was because Miss Carow had kept her secret so well. Then the Truth dawned.

 W .ich may have been true. At all events, everybody considered the match most suitable one, and congratula- tions rained down upon the two
 A few months previous to the an nouncement of the engagement Miss Carow had sailed for Europe with her mother and sister The following No vember MT. Roosevelt went to join them, and on December ? they were mar ried In St. Georges Church, Hanover Square, London, by Canon Cammaoge, a cousin of the bride.
 After several months traVel on the continent MT. and Mrs. Roosevelt re- turned to America and went to live at their present beautiful home at Oyster Bay, whither they have repeatedly re- turned after the variety of official homes they have since occupied.
 Their neighbors at Oyster Bay regard the Roosevelts now. as they did seven teen years ago, as the happiest pair of lovers anywhere about. Ceremony may be inevitable, in Washington or Albany. In Oyster Bay it can be and is dispensed with Theirs is the most charming of country homes-a delightful harmony of gardens and animals, and - children. There are five little Roosevelts now, be- sides Mr. Roosevelts oldest daughter, Alice, who is to make her debut in Washington next winter. There are probably no happier children anywhere.
 Mrs. Roosevelt has profound faith Tn her husbands ability and power to co,i- mand a future. Though she has plenty of independent interests. the great crises in her life have been the occasions cr her husbands successes or failures.

more of tragedy than he. His trials and the censure he received as Police Com missioner did not particularly affect the confident young mans serenity. To Mrs. Roosevelt however, they were bitterly disturbing When he left for the Spanish war as the lieutenant colonel of the Rough Riders, her anguished loneliness was pitiful. When he returned with sensational series of exploits to his credit, no heart beat so proudly as hers.
 Many of their friends believe that Mrs. Roosevelt has hoped for some time to see her husband President, and this accounts for her unconcealed reluctance last sum- mer to see him nominated for the Vice Presidency in Philadehm;a
 Of medium height, slender and with aristocratic bearing; of fair complexion. but with dark eyes and dark hair worn high on her head and drawn away from her unusually high forehead; her profile a trifie sharp and acquiline; her mouth straight and with lips a little thin. but charming when the expressive face breaks into smile-such is a pen picture of Mrs. Roosevelt's personality.
