RIDICULES ROOSEVELT
[unIted Press Leased wIre.l

Beriin, June Threatening to
expose "the humbuggery of Colonel
koosevelt's African hunt" Captain
Won waldheim, noted German
hunter, announced today that he
would go to New YORK in August and
make a lecture tour throughout the
United States.
Captain Won Waldheim says that
hunting in Africa has degenerated
into a 'parlor game.
"It is quite possible that Colonel
Roosevelt has killed all the animals
credited to him. asid Captain Won
Waldheim, but under present con
ditions that fact does not entitle him
to pose as a mighty hunter
Il am familiar with Roosevelt's
Jungle itinerary and it is no more
exciting than sociological garden.
Much of the territory Colonel Roose-
welt will cover is devoted to African
health resorts. | have known many
Europeans who have gone there for
their health.
81 have seen pictures of the Roose-
welt expedition and judging from
them the American ex-president has
entered the jungle at the head of an
army. thus robbing himslf of the real
sport of hunting The element Of
danger is eliminated as the animal
must run the gauntlet of several
hunters and hasn't dead mans
chance"
The German captain in connection
with his lecture will show stereopti-
con pictures he and others have taxi
en- in the jungle. His American tour
Will close just before Colonel Roose-
velts European lectures begin.
