TEDDYS HUNT TRIP
PERlLs AND PLEASURES OF THE
GAME QUEST IN EAST AFRICA.
Death from Fever, Poison and Animals,
or Captivity in the Jungle Lurk,
But in the End the Finest
Hunting in the World.

Oyster Bay, n Y-President Roose-
Yelt's hunting trip to East Africa
which is planned for next year, will
decrease the presidential savings some
$40 600 to $4,000 at a low estimate,
but. inasmuch as Mr.. Roosevelt al
ready has been offered more than ten
times that amount for his story Of the
trip, 70 be written upon his return, IL
isn't worrying the family banker.
What is concerning all the Roose-
velt family and the close friends OF
the president may be summed up as
things that might happen on that
trip" II is no small matter, this 20
900 miles journey to the widest sec
ton of the world, where big game is
as populous as il has come to be
scarce in the won west" II isn't so
much the lions, elephants, and their
associates that are being feared, al
though the element of danger they
always present contains the essential
zest Of hunting with any true sports
man. But there are many other enc
mics Of human life, which the presi-
dent Will have 10 encounter and SUD
due.
The journey 70 the east coast OF
Africa will be one Of the most wonder
ful pilgrimages a man Of the western
world might take. The president will
pass through seas and straits which
alone could have washed away the
tones of history they have seen writ
ten. He will come into contact with
customs and people by far the most
interesting in the world, and finally,
as a sort Of guerdOn for his wander
ing, the traveller will reach Zanzibar
Ia place which merits its name, Para
dise).
It has been called the most interest
Ing IS square miles in the world, and

appears to merit the description. In
its scant area the fiotsam and jetsam
of the eastern world has gathered. 1t
contains, shoulder to shoulder, in its
Heterogeneous people and life. the ele-
ments of the finest culture, the deep
est ignorance, morality degeneracy,
vice and virtue. more fantasucally in
terwoven into the life of the place
than anywhere else in all the world.
Here the president viii get his sup
plies, guides, servants, porters and
other blacks who will be his compan.
ions on the hunt. From Zanzibar he
goes to the chief city of English East
Africa and from there plunges into
the vast, silent, disease breeding jun
gle, where a white man goes with the
assurance that death, muitifOrm, pes
tilent and horrible, turks in every
thicket and stream and tree; a place
where the chances Of living are re
duced to the ultimate natural minimum
Preceded by his blacks, and fol
lowed by more Of the same, bearing
the rather imposing luggage Of the eX
pedition, and, in bad weather, the
head of the expedition in a hammock
the president Will enter a world vast
ly different from anything he has ever
seen
The president will not have pro
oeeded far before rebellion will breal
cut in his train. This kind, however
is more easily settled than miners
strikes, and all may be well.
Then he may be overtaken and cap
tured by a native prince, who will re
quire beads, wire, brass and the Hk,
to keep him from devoting his dis
tnguished guest TO glutting his appe
lite Upon finding that his visitor 4

of his dusky bellies. The diplomac
of MIR. Roosevelt will have to be relic
upon in this extremity.
In the end. all these perils haYin
been safely passed, Mr.. Roosevelt wi
reach the happiest hunting ground
IN all the world, where he may shoe

To Keep Away Bugs.

Make frames II inches square and
four inches deep from any pieces Of
board at hand, or get a box from the
grocer and split it up for the purpose.
Set a frame over each hill Of cucum-
bers or melons, and cover with a piece
of glass. Amateur photographers who
have spoiled negatives on hand can
clean them in hot water and use them
for this purpose by tacking a couple
of cross sticks over the top of the
frame to serve as rests for the small
glasses. This protects your vines
while the first leaves are forming,
which is the time to look out for bugs.
The glass, of course. must be removed
to let in air and moisture at the proper
times. By this method one can start
much earlier than usual and be sure
of protection from frost as well as
bugs

To Keen Lettuce Fresh.

By following the method given be-
low you can always have crisp, fresh
lettuce and rarely lose a leaf. AS
soon as it comes from the grocery
plunge 1t into cold water. The pan
must be large and deep enough to
cover it entirely and give it room to
swell. After about six hours wash it
OF under cold water; wrap it lightly
in a damp towel, put It into fruit
basket use a grape basket with
out top or handle-and set 1t on the
shelf of the refrigerator. 1t will keep
for three or four days and be ready
for use at once-Chicago Tribune.

MANHATTAN ALL
TO The GOOD
ARTHUR RAYCRAFT FIRsI BE.
LEVER IN DESTINY
OF CAMP

Manhattan is fast forging ahead, !"
said Arthur Raycraft, who has been
in the northern camp for the past
eight days. Work is being prose-
cuted on the various leases and with
good results. Capital is coming in,
not with a blare of trumpets, it is
true. for your true investor wants
to get the best of bargain. Quietly
and unostentatiously, several repre-
sentatives of large moneyed interests
have been investigating, ana
from their reports it is expected that
their superiors will get in on the
ground floor. The mills are work
ing steadily and the camp is taking
on new lease of life. The strikes
on the various leases and the open
ing up of new bodies of milling ORE
has stimulated other leasers to ge
busy and get out the stuff. Ever,
auto coming into the camp carries it
full quota of passengers and that i
in addition to the stages which are
always crowded. Yes, put me dow
as a firm believer in the destiny o.
Manhattan. She will be one of tn
greatest producers in the state"

FRANK GOLDEN
IS OPTIMISTIC
HE SAYS COMING YEAR IN STATE
OF NEVADA WILL BE A
BANNER ONE

Banker Frank Golden came over
from GoIdfield yesterday afternoon,
where he has been looking after his
various business interests. He pre-
diets that the coming year will be a
good one for Nevada. He says the
change in Goldfield during the time
he spent there was something start
ling. Leasers ere preparing for work
on large scale and the apathy that
seemed to have settled upon the camp
has entirely disappeared and things
are beginning to hum. But, then
Tonopah looks good to me-, said Mr.
Golden, 1.-The air of stability and the
fact that the mines are turning ou
the ore and that tomorrow we shall
have over 100000 in good hard coli
paid out to the miners and mill hands
Is one of the most gratifying things
Everyone has money and it means
trade for Tonopah merchants. Tono
pah always did look good to me.
Mr.. Golden will be here in all like
| lihood for week. \
