Colonel Roosevelt's Trip.

1t may be said that the whole
world is interested in the trip that
Colonel Roosevelt undertakes to
the wilds of South America, and
his own countrymen look forward
with hope to his happy return,
for he, in his long and varied ca
reer, has braved nature in almost
all inaccessible lands. Raised
from boyhood in what was practi-
cally the only uncivilized part of
this continent, he plunged, when
the opportunity came, into the
heart of Darkest Africa and re-
turned laden with the trophies of
his skill as a huntsman.
Now he is to face the miasma,
the jungles and the savage life of
the interior of South America. OF
course, there are misgivings and
fofebodings among those of his
countrymen who believe that the
loss of Colonel Roosevelt would be
a great calamity to the country.
But, besides being a man of pluck,
Colonel Roosevelt is a man of luck
and his star, which has long shone
effulgent, is not likely to be dimmed
in the wilds of South America.
In any event, the hopes of all
Americans 60 with him on his peri.
lous journey.-Daily States.
