Spexia, Italy. April IA new Theo-
dore Roosevelt arrived here today. It
was not the leader Of men and the in
ternational parsonage that stepped
from the Rome express this morning
with his wife-it was the bridegroom.
Casting aside grave problems. Mr..
Roosevelt gave himself up to the SEN
timental journey along the Riviera,
following the course he and his bride
took q years ago.
No bride and bridegroom could have
been more blithe than the former pres
ident and his wife when they took
their first view Of the gay gulf Of Ge-
noa. They managed. with bit Of
maneuvering. to evade expectant
crowds and began their period Of en-
joyment In isolation.
The Roosevelts went to . hotel for .
breakfast, and then gave themselves
up for q while to Sightseeing. In spite
Of the great curiosity among the tour
lists and health seekers here. their
known desire to be left alone, gave
them much more privacy than they
had enjoyed since meeting In Egypt.
Hs ossirss 70 Rest.
MT. Roosevelt desires opportunity to
rest, and apparently II In need Of per
iod OF recuperation. His hunting trip
put him Ii fine fettle and his physical
condition when he reached Khartoum
was better than II had been in years.
The whirl Of entertainment and
sp4echmalking In Egypt. however. fol-
lowed 20 closely by his strenuous stay
in Rome, In which he had scarcely an
hour to himself, told on him.
Fear Of being misunderstood In the
position he took in the dispute with
the Vatican added greatly to his cares.
Il 10 known that tho incident caused
him considerable worry. though he
has mot admitted It In any way.
Today. however. he dropped all
thought Of anything but gayety. Not
until he reaches Porto Maurice will
ho again take up public matters
there he may meet Clifford Pinchot,
cx-chief forester.
CNol0ron Are IN Nome.
Meanwhile the Roosevelts hope to
10 ~ much alone AZ 10 possible. for
persons Of prominence. with Kermit
ana Miss Ethel left in Rome. and the
correspondents asked to keep them
selves 40 much out Of sight as possi-
Bile.
The ex-president and his wife began
their carriage to~Genoa-a three day
trip, with al the leisure Of . pleasure
jaunt today. Haste was thrown aside.
Frequently Mr.. Roosevelt stopped to
enjoy I particularly beautiful view. or
to visit some neck that he remember
"a from his wedding tour.
No definite itinerary had been ar
ranged for this trip. The drive to
Genoa IL sixty-five miles. From Spezia
to Porto Maurisio in bee-line across
the gulf OF Genoa is . matter Of q
hundred miles: along the road that
follows the curving coast. It 10 about
twice ~ long. In the middle OF his
sweep In Genoa: from there to Porto
Maurixio the Roosevelts viii travel by
train.
The period OF rest win be continued
At the villa OF Mrs. Carow, Mrs. Roose-
velt's sister. where the former presi-
dent will remain three days. It IL
there that Clifford Pinchot is expected
to meet his former chief No one else
will be received there by Mr.. Roose-
welt.
