COL. ROOSEVELT GOES CUNNING
 TOMORROW
His First Chance at African Game Will be on the Kapiti Plains Where Hunt. ing Party Camps fer a Week-Left MOmbasa This Afternoon.
(By Warrington Dawson, Staff Cores.
 pondent United Press)

(By Warrington Dawson, Staff Cores pondent United Press) Mombasa, East Africa, April a. Colonel Roosevelt will probably get his
 first chance at African game to-mor- row. The change in the hunting plans Of the Roosevelt hunting party were
 made to-day as a result of which the party will spend a week in camp on
 the kapiti plains before coming to Na1robi and the ranch of Sir Alfred Tease. The hunting party left Nom oaSa this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock and
 the members will disembark tonight
 ana after a short rest, the hunting on
 kapit plains will begin. If the pres
 ent plans do not miscarry the Colonel
 will do his first shooting tomorrow.
 Antelopes Ostriches and small game
 abound on the kapiti plains. and MT.
 Roosevelt anticipates a good bag. A special train, decorated with Am er1can flags, bore the party from Mom-
 basa. At the dinner given by Mom-
 basa Club last night MT. Roosevelt
 was toasted by F. c. Sealous, the fla
 nous African hunter who was the pos sible means of bringing England and
 Germany to a better understanding and the toast brought tremendous ap- plause.
 F. J. Jordan presided at the dinner and toasted both King Edward and MT. Roosevelt. When the latter rose IO iSSPoiiu nC Wsls Sieeleu py CiIeeIIlS that lasted fully five minutes. The demonstration was so cordial that the ex-PreSident seemed momentarily em- | barrassed. MT. Roosevelt said that the greatest surprise he had encountered in Africa was the beauty of the scen- | cry which far surpasses his expecta- | tions. He declared he had seen so | many evidences of civilization that lie was beginning to be skeptica1 regard l ing the existence of jung1es, a skepti- cism which he hoped soon to have re- moved.
 R. J. Cunningham, who will act as a guide for the Roosevelt party, was one | of the first to greet MT. Roosevelt.

THE SENATORSHIP.

The solemn farce that has beer
down on the boards at Springfield
for some weeks in going on, and
while not playing to standing room
only, appears to attract considerable
attention from the statesmen and the
reporters for newspapers.
1t is evident now that the plan OF
the opposition to Mr. Hopkins is 10
keep on voting in such way that he
cannot be elected until after the
fourth Of March
AS the lawyers say. Nj. Hopkins
term ceases and determines on thar
date. and after then he is nothing bur
a private citizen.
The hope OF the opposition is that
when this occurs-when Mr. Hopkins
from being senator becomes a private
citizen, there will be a relaxation OF
efforts of the federal office holders in
his behalf, as they will no longer have
anything TO expect from him. and as
int lliONtfH utlilitlOu VI SIdlltuuG al
politics is the accepted one, viz: that
it is a lively sense OF fayors yet to
will be a splitting up Of
the present Hopkins support, with a
possibility that there may be some
thing doing in the way of eleeting Il
senator.
Whether this be true or not. it Is
evident that after the fourth of
March. if the contest is prolonged I'M
til that time the chances Of Mr. Hop
Bins will not be so good as they are
prior to that date, and at this time
they are not very flattering.
There is the same thing that has
been in the way of the selection of
Mr. Hopkins all the time; that is the
aud lukewarmness of the
friends and the bitterness of his enc
mics. Peoria Journal.

In his address at thu Merchants
luncheon yesterday Mr., Van Osten
referred approvingly to The Bulle-
tins suggestion that score or so Ct
goats be procured to clear Cairo's
streets of rubbish which citizens per-
siet in aepositing and boarding in
front of their doors from one years
end to the other. The Bulletin APP
priciates this the more in view of the
fact that some malicious person has
been trying to discredit the sugges-
ton and defeat the movement by in
dLstriously circulating the report
that goats will not eat ashes. OF
course, If this were true the useful
ness of these qnadrupeds for the
purpose stated would be very much
impaired. But it comes on no less
an authority than Alderman Burke
who has had much experience wi h
goats in his livery stable, that they
will eat anything that has length,
breadth, thickness or substance He
admits that they do shy a little at
wood ashes. because in the process
Of digestion In connection with other
things it makes soap, AMI soap does
not agree with goats, either inside
or outside. However, as wood ashes
is but an infnitisimal part of the
rubbish that needs cleaning up, II
ought not TO be considered as a
serious objection to the proposition.
