The hunting tripof former President
Roosevelt and his party in Africa has
been ended, and the members of the
expedition are now sailing down the
Nile for Khartoum, where they ex-
pect to arrive March 18th. With their
departure from Gondokoro few DAYS
ago the African scientific expedition
under the ausp ces of the Smithsonian
institution. of Washington, led by the
former President, was for all practical
purposes brought to close.
Roosevelt considers that the killing
OF the giant Glands in his recent ex-
curslon along the upper reaches of the
Nile was a lifting wind-up Of mar
velonsiy successful trip. The results
generally, from the standpoint of the
hunter and the scientist, have exceed
ed all expectations.
Roosevelt and his son Kermit have
Killed some 500 specimens of large
mammals. The bag includes II lions,
II elephants, 10 buffaloes, 10 black
rhinoceroses, 8 white rhlnoseroses,
8 hippopotami, 8 CRATES, 8 leopards,
= chetahs, 8 giant Glands, . sablss, one
sitatunga and bopgos.
All these were killed in the interest
Of science, and the specimens will be
disposed of accordingly, the greater
number going to the Smithsonian In
stitute. Mr.. Roosevelt will retain not
more than six trophies for him self.
From the point of Importance the
most highly prized game may be rated
as follows: First, the giant lelands. the
first complete specimens Of which
family are new being taken from the
country; second the while rhinoceroses
third, the bongos, the first to be stalk
ed and killed by white man, and
fourth, the sitatunga, species Of ante
lope.
The naturalists secured remarkable
collection, com rising NJ any thousands
Of birds and other mammals. The re-
results in this line have been most
gratifying, and science will be enriched
by several new species and an enor-
nous series of the smaller mann Ia ais
OF Africa.
The game taken and ;ths collections
made constitute worlds record for a
similar period of hunting and scienti-
fic research in Africa, and the American
museums will receive the greatest col
lection of African fana IN existence.
Roosevelt will now devote his time
to writing, including the preparation
of the addresses which he is to deliver
In Europe He will do no more hunt
ing unless, on the trip down the Nile,
chance throws IN his way an opportu-
Gity to secure some rare specimens.

THEY ACTUALLY
DO THE WORK
Food Eaten is Worthless Unless d.
gested-SOme StOmachs Must
Have Help.

Food taken into the Stomach which.
from the nature Of the food or the con-
dition Of the stomach, is not digested
IS worse than no food at all, This is
a true statement as far as It goes and
a great many dyspeptics go only this
far with their reasoning. They argue
with themselves th&t because their
stOmachs do not do the work given
them, they must be given less work;
In other words, they must be starved
II would be just as sensible tor a
business man who is unable TO do all
his own work TO cut down his business
TO his own capacity as It is for a
man to starve himself TO relieve his
stomach. The sensible business man
employs help and goes forward with
his business. Likewise the sensible
dyspeptic will employ help for his
stomach and give his body proper
nourishment.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets actually
do the work assigned to them They
relieve weak and oyerburdened slom-
achs of a great portion Of digestive
action. Their component parts are
identical with those of the digestive
fluids and secretions Of the stomach
and they simply take up the grind
and carry on the work just the same
as a good, strong, healthy stomach
would do Il.
On this account Stuart's dyspepsia
Tablets are perfectly natural in their
action and effects. They do not cause
any unnatural or violent disturbance
in the stomach or bowels. They them
selves digest the food and supply the
system with all the nOurishment con-
tanned in what is eaten and carry out
Natures plans for the sustenance and
maintenance of the body.
How much more sensible is this
method than that employed by many
sufferers from weak stOmachs. BY
this means the body and brain set all
the good, nutritious food they need
and the man is properly nourished
and equipped to carry on his work
ana perform his dnues. He could not
possibly be in proper working condi-
tion by starving himself or employing
some new tangled, insufficient food
that does not contain enough nutri-
ment for a year-old baby. A strong
man doing strong work must be pro,
perly fed and this applies to the brain
as we'll as the body.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. by re-
lieving the stomach of its work, en-.
able It TO recuperate and regain its
normal health and strength. Nature
repairs the worn and wasted tissues
Just as she heals and lnits the bone
Of a broken limb. which is of course
not used during the process OF re-
pair.
yStuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are fol
sale by all druggists at SO cents 8
box and they are the one article thai
the druggist does not try to sell some
thing In the place of that's lust al
good Their unqualified merit anc
success and the universal demand fOI
them has placed them within the
! reach of everyone.

At 3.45 o'clock on Sunday, Septem-
ber 18th, there formed in Eden Hall
a body of men who had spent many
tiresome nights, and few days, dur
ing the summer working themselves
to as near perfection as possible so
that they could make name for
their Lodge and the State by compet-
ing in the Sovereign Grand Lodge de-
gree cottests. They had practiced
with a zeal never BEFORE seen in Eden
Halls but that was done; they were
now to make the trip, a longer jour
ney than most of them had ever be-
fore taken. Members of the lodge
we're on hand to wish the team a
safe Journey and victory. At 4 o'clock
they formed in line, and escorted by
fellow members. they marched to the
p, b. e. w. station by the following
route: Tenth to Market to Third to
French to Front. They then grouped
and a member Photographed them.
Upon going inside the station they
found IL crowded. In fact IL was
something out of the ordinary for a
local secret society to send thirty-six
men on such an errand to as far
away place as Atlanta, Ga.
The team was scheduled to leave
at 4.32 o'clock but as 1t was about
Is minutes late the time allowed a
longer farewell parting. When the
train did arrive ana the stan was on
board they we're given a send-oh un-
equaled in local lodge circles. II is
unnecessary to say that the send-of
made an indelible impression on their
hearts, for many we're heard to say

links of good luck, and the Bring
Back the Bacon" sign, we almost knew
what was expected Of us.
Thus started thirty-six true Viii
mingtonians. But the question that
seemed to be bothering them, was
what would they do with themselves
for the next twenty-five hours, but
more especially the next seven. Would
they group and start social card
games? Many an eye was cast to-
wards p. J. Isaac. lt required very
little talk from him for the crowd tc
know his desire. 7 think there was
a feeling which went through every
mans soul that said Phil proposed
and worked hard for this trip, not fOi
his glory, but for yours, therefore
do you unto him as ne desires" This
every man did from start to finish Oi
this memorable trip.
/ almost forgot to say that in the
car ahead Of ours, members of Men

been partaken OF, there were chats
with other lodge members, shaves
and shoe shines before we made an
other trip to The Orpheum.
This time We saw Blue Ridge No.

When one of the judges announced
that Eden Lodge No "a. OF Whining
ton, Del. would next appear, many
arose TO leave, but those who counted
appearance and conduct for anything
advised them to remain. We there
fore, had a large house.
When the curtain allowed the foot
lights to throw their CLEAN upon us
burst of applause went up. for seat
ed in the audience We're several mem
bers Of Temple Encampment No. 100
Of Philadelphia, Pa, who knew us and
we knew them and of course they
were with us.
Several times before the degree
work was over we had more than
the "Philly" boys applauding. AS We
! finished our outgoing march and oul
orchestra had started playing Dixie,
not one man in that vast audience
remained seated.
The cheering and hand-clappinl
lasted for twenty minutes. before tn
degree master came down in tn
dressing-room and said we would hay

back and had the honor of being th
first lodge to do so. Is IL any wor
der the men were congratulated, an
we all wore the smile that "wouldn

One man was seated in that aud

no thought Of being there. But th
