terry. He Is not Thomas Lamond.'

dress. The tools and weapon that the
police OF the West One Hundred and
Twenty ffth-st. station look from him
as indicating that he is burglar are
not those OF regular burglar.
The man is just IA bit above me-
dunn height His hair Is red. He has
the appearance of being a college pro-
lessor, or perhaps a lawyer. But the
Ruesser stands upon the appearance.
Their Is nothing from the man TO in
dictate whether the guess be correct
or Incorrect
When they arraigned him he was
charged with having broken into the
apartment of Louis Schlitzer. No. 3GS

rimmed glasses lent a clerical air TO
the man. His raiment was that of a
man OF the world.

4 lite crook society. One was thing
that was classed as jimmy. 1t was

Although Col. Roosevelt is inclined
s to minimize his danger. those who
have come TO Naivasha from the At
marlborough estate, on the southern end
of the lake, where the Roosevelt party
n Is nov hunting, declare the party was
IN dire need of food and water.
While hunting in the direction OF
\ the Attendborough estate, 10 which he
had been invited Col. Roosevelt, with
all his porters and gun.bearers reached
Camp Plains last Saturday night, com
pfctefy worn out. The water supply
OF the party was completely exhausted
and the food was running low. In the
terrible heat men and beasts wanted
water badly.
Judge their dismay when they
reached Camp Plains to find that the
pool from which they expected TO Sc
Scure water for themselves and the
animals was completely dried up. II
was too late for the party to proceed
onward and the men and beasts were
too tired, even had IL been practicable
to 20 OH toward water.
After pitching camp Saturday night
the members of the party set out Ia
.all directions in the vain hope OF find
ing pool from which enough water
could be secured To tide them over
night. The search was fruitless ana
the members OF the party, with
parched threats, were compelled 10
30 TO bed thirsty. Sunday was a
typical hot day in East Africa but
there was no rest for the Roosevelt
party. winch had TO hurry on to water.
1T was then that Cunninghame, trav-
cling light, and accompanied only by
q few natives. detached himself from
the party and hurried on to secure
water and hurry back TO the party
Col. Roosevelt and his larger party
followed more slowly and for a time 1t
seemed they must spend another day
under the sitting African sun without
water, or at least until Cunninghame
should return.
Fortunately late Sunday afternoon.
before Cunninghame returned, the
party came upon a pool from which
they secured fairly good drinking
water There was hurried halt
while the porters built fires and
though the members of the party and
the porters felt almost famished Col
Roosevelt would not permit them TO
drink until the water had been boiled.
While the members of the party were
not In actual danger Of death. they
euffered considerable inconvenience
and pain from thirst.
Today Col. Roosevelt laughs at the
experience.
