Voyage to Dorado.

The voyage to the town of Dorado. 6O
miles from Barranquilla, may be made by
boats of three and one-half feet draft in
from eight to twelve days, according to
the depth of water over the numerous
sand bars and the strength of the cur
rent, which varies with the seasons. In
the rainy season the river is bankfuil
and has a very swift current, which
carries down trees and logs and snags
Of various sorts. In the dry season, when
the water Is low, the journey takes con-
siderably longer, according to the success
of the pilot in avoiding snags and keep
ing off the sand bars
The down journey Is made in about half
the time, as the boat runs with the cur
rent People frequently go from Bogota
to BarranQuilla in six days, and the Sec
retary Of the Colombian legation recently
made the trip from New York to Bogota
in fifteen days.
At Dorado passengers and freight are
transferred to railway line which passes
through the town of Honda and follows
the left bank of the river a distance of
about forty miles to a place called Bel
tran. where they are again transferred to
smaller steamers of two and One-haIf feet
draft and continue the voyage to Girar-
dot, 100 miles above where second
runs about 30 miles to Bogota.
GirardOt is a Japanese word meaning
cemetery. There are several other Jap
anese terms in common use in Colombia
whose derivation has not been explained.

Road Up the Mountains.

/. Road Up the Mountains.
The road from Girardot up the noun
tains does not follow the Canine Real, or
Royal Highway, which was built 800
years ago by the conquistadores, but oc-
cupies the other side of the river. There
are several short railways running into
the interior from both banks of the
Magdaiena river, bringing coffee, cocoa.
hides and other products of the country
for shipment to New York and Europe in
exchange for manufactured merchandise.
The most important of these roads runs
from Cartagena, the oldest city and the
best harbor in the republic, to Calamar.
about 100 miles above Barranquilla. Many
of the steamship lines prefer to stop at
Cartagena because of its safe harbor
instead of at Sabanilla. which Is an open
roadstead without any protection from
storms. The Cartagena railroad former
!y belonged to an American company, but
has recently been sold to the same Eng
.ish corporation that has built the new
line up the mountain and owns several
other railways in Colombia. 1t also owns
the most important railways in Venezuela.
On the west bank of the Magdalena,
about 500 miles from its mouth a railroad
is under construction from Puerto Berrio
to the flourishing city of Medelin, capital
of the Department of AntiOquia, which is
the most important commercial and min
ing center of the country. The railway
Provendencia, from which the freight is
transported by mules over a mountain
range.
On the other side of the river a rail-
road Is being constructed from Port
Witches to the city of Bucaramanga, the
commercial center and capital of the
Department of Santander. about ITO
miles. 1t runs through very rich agri-
cultural country, which produces prolific
crops of coffee, cocoa and other staples,
hides and skins, ore and timber.
Three Roads Across the Sabana.
There are three roads across the Sabana
from Bogota. The first to Facatativa
have already described. The second,
about fifteen miles long runs through
cattle district to the town OF Sibate and
the Tequendama Falls, TIE great natural
curiosity of the country, which are 475
feet high and much higher than Niagara,
but do not carry SO much water. The
third railway runs through a series of
attractive suburban towns, where the
wealthy people of BOgota reside. about
thirty miles to very rich salt mines at
Zipaquira. and thence forward to Memo

PLAN TO WELCOME ROOSEVELT
OF MoMBASA ARE
MAKING ARRANGEMENTS.
Mean to Greet Former President Of
the United States as
Sportsman.

MOMBASA, British East Africa. March
u.-Mombasa is preparing already to well
come Theodore Roosevelt when he lands
here the latter part of next month on his
much -heralded African trip. The coming
of the former President of the United
States has given a decided impetus to the
interest in the present hunting season.
The governor Of the protectorate, Lieut..
Col. Sir James Hayes Sadler. is getting
up a program Of wit and entertainment
for the distinguished visitor, but in spite
of these arrangements the greeting to
Mr.. Roosevelt will be more to the sports
man, whose fame is we'll known to local
hunters, than to the former President.
East African sportsmen were highly
gratified to learn that Mr.. Roosevelt had
refused the offer of the authorities to
grant him a special hunting license that
would have permitted him to kill game to
an unlimited extent. instead OF confining
himself to the two elephants. two rhi-
nOceroses, two hippopotami, etc. OF the
regular license. Lions and leopards are
classed as vermin, and consequently no Ii
cense to kill them is required
Joking About Big Stick.
The white population Of Mombasa has
heard much of Mr.. Roosevelt's personal
Ity, anu III d JohiIS way 1icquOHS lChCl-
ences to the big stick are being made.
Four families of giraffes have been seen
at Makindu, 200 miles inland from here,
on the line of the Uganda railroad, and
elephants have been seen at Elburgon.
475 miles inland, on the railroad and along
the Sabaki river, not far to the north OF
Mombasa.
r. ]. Cuninghame. the English big game
hunter and naturalist, who is to be guide
to and general manager OF the Roose-
welt party, has been here for some time
completing the preparations for the trip
into the wilderness, as we'll as the shoot
ing and collecting excursions along the
line of the railroad. He is selecting
and hiring native porters for the expe-
dition. He takes only experienced men
who are known to be courageous and to
possess great physical strength.
Camp Equipment Arriving.
The safari kit-in other words, the camp
equipment-for the work in the open is
arriving from London, and all will be in
readiness when Mr.. Roosevelt arrives.
The railroad car used over the line as
far as Port Florence by other dis
the Duke of Mecklenburg. the Duke Of
Connaught, the Duke of the Abruzzi,
Joseph Chamberlain and Winston Spen-
Ger Churchill, is being rehtted for the
use of Mr.. Roosevelt. This car is most
complete in it's detail and provides the
traveller with every comfort.
Everything points to successful stay
in British East Africa and Uganda for
