out to meet Mr.. Tempest.
When Tempest came in the guest

were full of the little image Mrs.
Henly had conjured up for her.
Tempest, utterly tagged, in travel
ing-dress, his hat and gloves in his
hand, came forward with eagerness;
his face lighted as he put out his
hand.

He did not remove his eyes from
her, the intensity of his look, his tax
ing in. as it were, of every line of her
face. his possessive absorption of her,
made her redden painfully, and her
commonplace words of greeting
stopped on her lips.
There seemed between them already
an intimacy which had in her mind
no excuse for being. She had feel
ing of knowing him absolutely as she
stood for the short space of mo-
ment under his eager eyes. Furnished
already with the little story of his
boyhood, she had an advantage over
him. Women understand men far bet

she saw that no matter what he had
gone to London to do, he had been
restless, and that he was glad to be
back and to find her there. He went
over to the window and, unfastening
it, stepped out and called back to her
to follow him.
There are Just three roses here-I
want you to gather them" He held
back the stems that she might pluck
with the thorns. Miss Carew picked
three tea-roses in full bloom and came
back to the morning-room with them
in her hand.

Was Remarkable Journey.

Col. Roosevelt's arrival at Khartum
completed one of the most notable
journeys since the days of Livingstone
and Stanley. The visit to the dark
continent and the invasion of the lair
of the lion, tiger, elephant and rhinoc-
eros has been remarkable because of
the escape Of Col. Roosevelt and his
aides from the deadly contagious dis
eases that haunt the jungles. Up to
the time of his arrival there had been
no serious accidents.
The town of Khartum is mass of
color. Flags Of Egypt, England and
America are everywhere. and the ex-
president has probably appreciated
nothing more than the opportunity of
visiting this historical spot
Khartum Historical Spot.
Khartum is virtually built around
the grave of Chinese" Gordon. The
city itself is gigantic monument to
that soldiers deeds and his heroic
death. In the center of 1t stands his
effigy in bronze, mounted on a camel,
gazing with fixed eyes out toward
the desert which Knocked him during
the terrible year that he lay there

stands the British governors palace.

style. typical of British power and
British permanence.
Not far away Is the Gordon Memori-
al college, school built with funds
raised by Gen. Kitchener by subscrip-
tion throughout Great Britain, in
which the Sudanese newer generation
is trained for service in the govern
ment which conquered its fathers.
Everywhere throughout the city the
name Gordon appears. There is the
Gordon hotel, the Gordon drive and
up the White Nile the Gordon tree.
Gordon's memory will live SO long as
Khartum exists. The British have
transformed the city Of his death into
memorial to his glory that can

day with the development Of the will

does not extend beyond the banks
of the Blue Nile. The river passes

GOVERNOR GENERALS GUEST

khartum, Egyptian Sudan.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt, former president Of
the United States, accompanied by his
son Kermit and members of the party
which has accompanied him through
the jungles of Africa in search of
big game, arrived at Khartum, Mon
day.
Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Roosevelt
were first to greet the returning trav-
eler as he stepped from the boat
loaned by a British government Off
cial on which he made the voyage on
the Nile from Kondokoro. 1t was a
hearty greeting between husband and
wife who had not seen each other for
nearly year, and the great crowd
that was gathered at the landing ex-
pressed its approval in three mighty
cheers.
Shuns Political Talk.
Scores of special correspondents
sent by the great American newspa-
pers swarmed around the former pres
ident as soon as he was released from
the grasp of his wife and daughter
To them Col Roosevelt declared he
would not discuss the political situa-
tion in the United States with which
he has been out of touch for SO many
months. Col. Roosevelt asked many
questions and was greatly interested
in affairs at home. One bold corre-
spondent received a Roosevelt smile
only when he asked If the colonel will
be candidate for the presidency in
1912. Questions about his friend Gif-
ford Pinchot's row with Secretary Bal
linger and President Taft were like
wise turned aside unanswered.
