LACK OF AUTHENTIC NEWS
COURIER FROM CAMP ROOSE-

LACK OF AUTHENTIC NEWS

Glenwood Springs, Colo. April H.
Before President Roosevelt penetrates
the wilds so far that communication
with the outside world will be next
to impossible, Secretary Loeb with the
aid of a courier daily expected from
the camp, will get on the presidents
trail and visit him in the mountains.
The visit will be for the purpose Of
taking up with the president a num-
Der of important matters that have
come to the headquarters here since
Saturday. There are a number of
commissions to be signed, as well as
departmental business that has been
forwarded.
Compelled to Decline.
Many invitations have come TO
Secretary Loeb and members OF the
official party stopping at the Hotel
Colorado to take excursions into the
surrounding territory in order 10 view
points of interest. All of these have
been declined or postponed until the
arrival Of the first courier from the
president. Mr.. Loeb expects to return
courier and he may spend a night In
camp.
Horseback rides, bathing in the hot
water pool, tennis and mountain
climbing have occupied the party to-
day.
During the week l. is planned to
take an excursion down the valley
over the Colorado Midland railroad to
see some private irrigation projects.
An engine Will be attached to the
private car Rocket" and the trip
made in that manner.
Fake Stories.
Wild stories of the hunt. most of
them obviously fakes, have reached
here. Secretary Loeb does not credit
them. Several of these stories have
been investigated and it has been
discovered that the taIe-bearer could
not have received reliable informa-
ton from the presidents camp for he
could have had no opportunity.
An illustration of the dearth of
authentic news or picture material
was noticed about a mile from the
Hotel Colorado today. A phOtogra pher
representing a syndicate selling pic
lures to daily newspapers attached
wire to the telegraph line running
through a wild section OF the mountain
country and then attached a tele-
graph instrument from the wire, using
a stump of a tree as a table. An as
sistant then posed for picture which
viii be sold to newspapers in alleged
representation of the manner in which
news is sent from the vicinity OF the
presidents camp. AS a matter of fact
there is no telegraphic line within
miles of the original camp of the
party. The hunters intend to roam
over a large area covering probably $50
miles before the hunt is concluded.

feel the need of charity toward evil
doers. even Of suffering In their stead.
And what about the necessary dis
tinctions in lifef some one may ask.
"As a result of your simplifications
are you not going to destroy that sense
of the difference between men which
must be maintained If society exists
at all?"
have no mind to suppress distinc-
tons and differences. but | think that
what distinguishes a man is not found
In his social rank. his occupation, his
dress or his fortune, but solely in him
self. More than any other, our own age
has pricked the vain bubble of purely
outward greatness. To be somebody
at present 1t does not suffice to wear
the mantle of an emperor or q royal
crown. What honor is there in WELD
Ing power through gold lace. coat OF
arms or ribbon? Not that visible
signs are to be despised - they have
their meaning and use-but on condi-
ton that they cover something and not
vacuum. The moment they cease to
stand for realities they become useless
and dangerous. The only true distinc-
ton is superior worth. If YOU would
have SOCIAL rank duly respected you
must begin by being worthy of the
rank that Is your own; otherwise you
help to bring it into hatred and con-
tempt. 1t is, unhappily, too true that
respect is diminishing among us, and it
certainly Is not from a lack of Nnes
drawn round those who wish to be re-
spected. The root of the evil Is in the
mistaken idea that high station ex-
empts him who holds 1t from observing
the common obligations of life AS we
rise we believe that we free ourselves
from the law. forgetting that the spirit
Of obedience and humility should grow
with our possessions and power So 1t
comes about that those who demand
the most homage make the least effort
to merit the homage they demand.
This Is why respect is diminishing.
The sole distinction necessary Is the
wish to become better. The man who
strives to be better becomes more
humble, more approachable. more
friendly even with those who owe him
allegiance. but as he gains by being
better known he loses nothing in dis
tinction, and he reaps the more respect
In that he has sown the less pride.

GREAT BLANK BY
IRvING'S DEATH
FAMOUS ENGLISH ACTOR WHO
STOOD so LONG AT HEAD LEAVES
A PLACE HARD TO FILL.

The news of the death of Sir Henry
Irving came to me as would that of an
old warm personal friend" said Alex
ander Scott, the English artist, who is
at present in the city. Il think that
most Englishman, the world over will
have the same feeling for we have been
apt to regard Sir Henry as something
in the light of a national institution,
apart altogether from his personality.
Certainly his was a unique position
on the English speaking stage. He had
many mannerisms, it is true, but he
was great in spite Of them, not because
of them. He was perfect master Of de-
tail and speaking as an artist, can on
ly say that his stage pictures were al
ways perfect. He never spared expense
in order to get the scene he was por-
traying as accurate as possible.
ITO give an idea of that-the last
time l was in Nuremburg l called at a
curiosity shop to pick up a few things
and the dealer spotting me as an Eng
/ lishman, told me that he had just com
pleted q deal with Sir Henry Irving.
An ancient church in Nuremberg had
been demolished and Sir Henry had
purchased all of the interior woodwork
for use on his London stage. This alone
cost him the equivalent of $3.50. Other
actors would probably have contentet
: themselves with painted canvas.
Il should be very much surprised il
his estate amounts to muOn. although
he has taken in more mcuey, probably
than any other man Of his profession il
his time. He was lavish to a degree II
his stagings and costumings and h
paid very large salaries to the peopi
he wanted with him.
1T will be a long time before hi
equal is found"
