CT TT T@~ His Transformation from q
NJ NL1L\Jos Raw Recruit to a Veteran
ILLUSTRATED

EW DOOhS III the lifs
erary history of this
country had such in
stantaneous success and wide
popularity as the Isl Klegg"
series. From the very fist
the story attracted a host of
readers, and these increased
in geometrical ratio as the
publication progressed.
1t is the story plainly, SIM
ply and truthfully told of tho
development of two green
country boys into veteran
soldiers of the highest type.
The story is told with affec-
tionate fidelity by one who
marched, camped and fought
with them, and there is a
universal agreement that it is
far the best story of the ex-
perience of the enlisted men
in the Union Army that has
ever been written. Every
detail and incident is so
truthful, so like his own ex-
perience that the veteran in
stantiy recognizes it with
a burst of laughter or the
tears yelling into his eyes.
The abounding humor of the
book is one of its most fas-
cinating features. Wherever
it is possible to extract fun
out of any situation or hap
pening it is done in the real
old army way. The heros of
the story see the fun them
selves at once and the
author vividly depicts it.

Departure of Himself and Party
Brings Great Hunting Expedi-

EXPECT TO ARRIVE MARCH IS.

brought 10 close.
Col. Roosevelt considers the killing Of
giant Glands In his recent excursion
along the upper reaches of the Nile was
lifting ending of a marvelously sue
cessful trip. The results generally from
the standpoint of the hunter and the
scientist have exceeded all expectations
Col, Roosevelt and his son Kermit
Killed some 500 specimens of large
mammals. The bag included the fol-
lowing: Seventeen lions, IL elephants.
10 buitaloes, 10 black rhinoceroses, nine
white rhinoceroses, nine hippopotaml,
nine giraffeS, three leopards, seven
chetahs. three giant Glands, three sa-
bles. one sitatunga and two bongos
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
stltution Mr.. Roosevelt will retain not
more than six trophies for himself
From the point of Importance the
most highly priced game may be rated
as follows: First. the giant Glands, the
first complete specimens OF which
family are now being taken from the
country: second. the white rhinoceros :
third. the bongos. the first to be stalk
ed and killed by a white man; and
fourth the sitatunga, a species of
antelope The naturalists secured a
selection, comprising many thousands
OF birds and other mammals. The re-
suits I'm this line have been most
gratifying and science will be enriched
by several new species and an
enormous series of the small mammals
of Africa. The game taken and the
collections made constitute q world :
and scientific research in Africa and
the American museums will receive
the greatest collection of African
fauna in existence. All agree that too
much praise cannot be accorded r.

opportunity to secure some rare
