DR. LONG bObs
 UP WITH ROAST ,FORROOsEvEl7

SlSAMtUkD, Conn, June l.-Doc- tor wisjiam J. Long, the former min ister ana .=:suralist whose writings were bitterly attacked by Theodore Roosevelt. talked abtut MT. Roose- velt's African hunting trip.
 Doctor Long declarts the worst feature of what he calls the whole bloody business" is the brutalizing influence which the reports from Africa have on thousands of Ameri- can boys.
 As there are no reporters with MT. Roosevelt" he added these reports of frequent killings yaust come chief ly from himself and are such as he himself chooses to send out.
 If they are true, they are exactly in line with his previous records. They prove that what I said two years ago. quoting from his own books, that he is a game butcher, pure and simple, and that his inter est in animals lies chiefly in the al rection of blood. butchery and bru' taiity
 In one dispatch notice thai when he could not find buffaloes he had to consent himself by shooting wart hogs and other inoffensiye crea' lures. As the buffaloes are fast dis appearing from Africa, and as MT Roosevelt had already killed several why in the name of science should he go out to kill more, and why. fail ing to find buffaloes. shoul1 he con tent himself by slaughtering otnel creatures?
 The whole thing is atrocious. II is exactly like his own record of kill ing eleven bull elk on one trip, ano then on his way out killing two more that he found fighting.
 Their meat was unfit to use anC was left in the woods. Then hs preached to us on the virtue of gam, protection. and when he comes bacl from this trip you will hear his right eous dissertation on the necessity fol preserving game in Africa. of course after he has killed everything ht could find.
 The only thing we will get out O the much-heralded trip will be som' more hunting yarns, just as veraciou as MT. Rooseyelt's account of his he roic exploit at San Jaan Hill. ant some more skins and bones, of whici we already have too many.
 "The only one who will ever leari or teach anything of value is the nai who studies the living animal, no the man who gloats over dead one
 "Only last week I met half dozei boys in the woods. Tine biggest hal a gun and a squirrels tai in his hat and he called himself Bwana Yum bo.'
 They were shooting everything il sight. killing birds at time whel every dead mother-bird meant nes full of young birds slowly starving t death. and how could I convince then that their work was inhuman, for I not the great American hero occu pied at this time with the same dc testable business?"
