FRIENDS NOT TO WORRY.
President VIII Not Spend Time
Writing MESSAGES.

Glenwood Springs, Col. April 15.-With some
uegree of permanency. Secretary Loeb has es-
tabllshed headquarters at Glenwood Springs
where he can keep in frequent communication
with President Roosevelt. A suite of rooms
mas been taken at the Hotel Colorado a summer
resort which was opened several weeks earlier
than usual in order to accommodate the Presi-
Dental party. To this hotel all Of the mail in
tended for the President will be addressed for
the next five six weeks Correspondence
which must be attended to by the Chief Execu-
tive will be taken to Newcastle by a member
OF the White House staff and sent by courier
to the Charles Penny ranch, where the hunt
ing camp is situated. But it is not believed
much mail will be received that cannot be dis
posed OF by Secretary Loeb Therefore, the
President will probably be permitted to enjoy
his vacation without bothering with the cares
Of Office.
The hunting party is about isolated as 1t
could be in any part of the United States. New
Castle, while easily accessible the Colorado
Midland Railroad, offers little comfort for the
wayfarer at this time Of year. Every peak sur
rounding the village is covered with snow, and
the roads to the south, toward the Penny ranch,
are hard to travel In addition, the camp is
well guarded, a large tract has been reserved
for the Presidents pleasure. and other hunt
ing parties would be turned back if found
IreSpaSSlng. Colorado newspapers nave pun
lished editorials advising that the President be
let alone TO enjoy himself to the utmost. Before
starting up the trail to the camp the President
told his friends not to worry if they did not
hear from him for three or four days at time
as he expected to have something more to do
than write messages. Helpers at the camp are
expected to so often to nearby villages for sup
plies and tales of the hunt will be brought out
by them. Without this limited means of COM
municatiOn, the President might remain in the
mountain Businesses for weeks and nothing be
heard from him.
With the President and his party enjoying
themselves in the wilds, the members of his
working staff and other attaches are preparing
to do likewise at Colorado Springs They have
found the swimming excellent. mountain climb
ing uneXcelled, accommodations perfect good
horses attainable and polo games in full blast.
There is little work, leaving long hours for rec
