PRESIDENT TO HUNT BEARS.
Tells Congressman He Wants Horse
to Ride That Is Not Too Tame.

Austin, Tex, Dec. 28.-Advices from
Washington say that Congressman
John Garner, whose district borders
on the Rio Grande. called on President
Roosevelt and invited him to go on a
hunt with him on his visit to Texas
next spring. Mr.. Garner says the
president expressed himself as anx-
ious to have another peccary hunt, he
having at one time visited Texas and
killed one of the animals.
Mr.. Garner told the president if he
would come to his district he would
give him a hunt after these animals
and bear hunt in the country be-
tween Del Rio and Ell Paso. He would
furnish horses, hounds, guides and at
tendants.
The president replied that he was
getting heavy, but not old, and would
not like as wild horse as he formerly
would have wanted, but he had life
enough yet to want a horse not too
tame.
