Starts for the Athi River.

Nairobi, British East Africa. April
25.-After a brief hunting expedition
last evening at Kapiti Plains. ex-
President Roosevelt and his party
broke camp and started for the ranch
OF Sir Alfred Pease on the Athi river
today. Colonel Roosevelt spent part
of yesterday afternoon sorting his kit,
while Kermit and several of the men
went to try their luck with the rifle.

An old settler who seemed to take a
liking to Kermit, offered to show him
a likely place for good sport. They
succeeded in bringing down one buck.

Colonel Roosevelt's first hunt was
favored by fine weather, and he en-
joyed the experience Immediately, He
bagged two wild beasts and a Thomp-
sons gaZelle. In one respect Mr.
Roosevelt was somewhat disappointed,
SIS he had been anxious to secure a
Grants gazelle, whose massive horns
are much sought after for trophies.
The hunt lasted several hours and
all the members of the party were wei!
tired out when they retired to the
camp.

of the hope that congress will hasten

business may be restored to its normal
condition at the earliest possible day.
may postpone the real test of strength
over the income tax proposition.
At present sentiment in the senate
is pretty evenly divided over an in
come tax amendment to the bill, but
there are many differences of opinion
among those favoring the idea as to
details of the legislation Some SEN
ators believe that it is impracticable
to tax incomes of less than $1,000,
while others believe it will be neces-
sary to go as low at $4,000. There are
others who argue that fixing a mini
mum at any figure will result in un-
fair determinations. Furthermore
many of the champions of the propos-
Il to tax incomes take the position that
it will require time to work out a sat-
isfactory plan to reach corporations.
