WILD RUM0R
UNTRACEBLE
That Col. Roosevelt Had Been
Killed IN Africa
ORIGIN UAO|sC0VERAB[E
It is Only Known That the
Startling News Did Not
Come Across the Ocean
and It is Nowhere Given
Credence

New York. Nov. 5.-Another OF
those apparently absurd rumors that
bob up nearly every time a prominent
man gets out of direct touch with
the world was circulated over the
country today concerning Colonel
Roosevelt. The will-o'-the- had
il that Colonel Roosevelt had been
killed in Africa. and because of the
dangers of African hunting freshly
imprinted on the public mind by Mr..
Roosevelt's magazine articles. there
was some uneasiness until Douglas
Robinson. Mr.. Roosevelt's brother-in-
law. declared emphaatically that he
took no stock in such reports.
Mr. Robinson branded the first
vague reports of the day as false and
when informed tonight that later ru-
mors from the shadow land of news
paperdom- had it that he (Mr. Robin
SOM had been advised by cable Of
Mr. Roosevelt's death, he authorized
another vigorous denial.
If anything had happened to his
brother-in-law. Mr. Robinson was
sure he would hear of it Immediately.
and accordingly he placed no credence
in the reports today. Magazine edi-
tors and other associates of Colonel
Roosevelt in New York took the same
view. 1t was pointed out also that
the colonial office in London would
be promptly advised of any mishap
to Mr.. Roosevelt. and as nothing had
appeared, this was taken as addi-
tional evidence that the rumor was
merely a news sprite from the field
of the sixth sense According to the
latest cable dispatches. Mr. Roose-
Welt is hunting on Guas Ingishu pla-
teau, and will return to Londiani in
about five weeks.

The Colby Freshmen defeated the
Sophomores in the annual inter class
baseball game IN Alumni field Wednes-
day afternoon by the score of 16 to 10.
The recent rains made the regular dia-
mond very muddy and the bail was

who can be counted on next spring.
They hit the ball hard and ran base,
well. Under the guidance of Captain
Roy GOode the team worked well.

in the box and did good work until
relieved by Barnard in the fifth. Cap

commenced to rise rapidly Tuesday
AFTERNOON and continued so until late

nearly feet. From 6 A NJ until noon
wednesday it rose one inch per hour,
but subsidized toward evening.
All interest in this city was conferred
at the new bridge being constructed
across the Kennebec by the Lewiston,
Augusta & Waterville Electric Railway
and for a time the entire superstruc-
ture was in danger of being carried
away. The structure of the arch, on
the Winslow end was badly damaged
and large number of the heavy pillars
were torn from beneath by the raging
torrent. For a long time it looked as
If the entire arch would be carried
down stream, but about noon the struc-
ture was guyed and although carried
away many feet from it's foundations

evening and unless further damage is
done to the underworld, it can be re-
paired without tearing down.

could that would strengthen the struc-
ture, but logs and other heavy timber
from points upriver beat against the
frame until at last a large hole was
pounded through the Winslow end
where the current is the swiftest and
the water kept eating sections of the
woodwork away every minute. The
large structure trembled as the mas

miraculous that the entire section did
not leave it's place.
From early morning until late at
night large crowds of people focked
to the Ticonic bridge to witness the
grand fall of the water; also to see
the damaged bridge. The sight was
one that has not been seen since the
high freshet in the spring of 1901, at
which time the damage was heavy in
this portion Of the country.
The damage to the bridge will be a
decided setback and it will be late III

the river lowers, to repair the damag-
