ROLL OF ANAN|AS
CLUB RE0PENED
Editor Harvey Initiated by Colo
mel Roosevelt.

New York, Aug. 3.-Colonel Theo.
dore Roosevelt has added another dis
tinguished member to the Ananias
club in the person 81 Colonel George
Harvey, editor of the North American
Review.
The initiation took place in the
office of the Outlook, of which Colonel
Roosevelt is contributing editor, and
the new member, while not actually
present, was put through with much
vim and considerable bounce.
While Colonel Roosevelt did not
use the Shorter and uglier word" in
connection with Colonel Harvey his
language was distinctly blunt and
plain.
The reopening of the club, which
was closed just prior to Mr.. Roose-
velt's departure for Africa, was
brought about through an article in
the August number of the North Amer
icon Review entitled "Is Roosevelt an
Asset or Liability" and which was
signed "The Editor" In a paragraph
at the top of page ISL this sentence

declared that if national election
were to be held next November he
undoubtedly would be the Republican
candidate and would VIM
When Colonel Roosevelt saw this
his eyes snapped and his teeth clicked
as he almost shouted: "That is a
simple falsehood; l have never said
anything like that z'
1t was pointed out to Colonel Roose-
welt that Colonel Harvey evidently
meant to convey the impression that
he would be forced to accept the nom.
ination. BY this time Colonel Roose-
welt appeared extremely angry and,
again repeating that he had never
made the statement attributed to him,
made a rush for the waiting elevator.
