"TUCKEREDOUT" A Description of the PreSi-
 dents Condition. HIS ILLNESS DENIED
An Enterprising Gambling Establish ment at GlenwOod Springs Has Turned Presidents Hunting Trip Into an Attractive Game of Chance

Glenwood Springs, Colo, April 29.- Elmer Chapman, the courier between President Roosevelt and Secretary Loeb. late today reached the ranches of A. Wisner and ". L. Smith both of which are situated in the West Di- vide Creek country where the presi- dent is hunting for bears. At both the ranches Chapman said: 'the president is in fine shape. He has not been sick. He was kind of tuckered out, but he has not been sick at all"
 Chapman went to the ranches in order to telephone some telegrams to New Castle. His announcement of the presidents condition was cheering to those who had been receiving con tradictory reports from unauthorita- tive sources. As the situation is un- derstood here now the president had a day when he was not feeling well. due totally to fatigue He remained in camp for the day and the story was started that he was ill Secretary Loeb denied the reports of the presi- dents illness as rapidly as they came in.
 The presidents hunting party to- morrow will attend Presbyterian ser vices at the old Blue school house near the camp on West Divide Creek. The sermon will be preached by Rev. Horace Mann of Rifle. Colorado who was the guest of the nuntins party for two days last week.
 Mir. Roosevelt became much attach ed to MT. Mann and when an invita- tiOn was extended to the DarTy to go to church at the school house the president accepted at once. Noun taineers will act as guardes for MT. Roosevelt though he does not need them in that country.
 There are all sorts of games of chance in GlenwOod Springs. one of unique character was started today by the Silver Club, the largest gamb- ling establishment in the town Ten dollars even money, was offered that the president would kill a bear during the day. The offer will continue every day except Sundays until the close Uf the hunt.
