M CHASED TO
ITS AFRICAN LAIR

Entebbc, Uganda, Nov. 9.-The ru-
mors that harm has come to Colonel
Roosevelt may be denied with assur-
ance. The last word from the party
came out November 3, and at that date
nothing unusual had occurred.
The following message from the Brit
ish commissioner at Eldama Ravtne
was received here at 2 o'clock this aft
ernoon:
October 2S, and news of the party re-
ceived on October 80 reported all we'll.
A letter dated November 8 has been re-
ceived from the party who, at the time
the message was sent, were or the Guas
Ingishu plateau. The letter made no
mention al all of Colonel Roosevelt. II
any of the party we, the nearest med
ical help, have received no news of such
sickness"
The Roosevelt party was at Eldama
Raviue, from which the commissioner
telegraphs on October II, M probably
proceeded for Guas Ingishu plateau on
October %. In any event their nearest
point Of communication with the out
Eldama Ravine, n news Of the party
could hardly get out by any other way.
Rome, Nov. 9.-Mrs. Theodore Roosc-
Welt learned only this morning of the
report that an accident a befallon
her husband. Naturally she was much
distressed. but she believes nothing Sc
rious could nav occurred inc she not
be promptly notified. Her friends sent
messages of inquiry last night to the
telegraph, station nearest to the point
where the party was located, but up to
moor no answer had been received.

Professor Frederick D. Losey, Of the

The common thought that Shakes

by Professor Losey. who said that

shifting vocabulary and the changes
In habits and customs of people In

should be so few obsolete words In
Shakespeare. Shakespeare was readily

1t Il this reflection of an age from
which we stand 800 years remote that
makes the difficulties encountered In
reading Shakespeare. E
The customs. manners. and supersti-
tions OF the Elizabethans were inter-
estingly explained by Professor Losey.
