THE COLONEL's CONQUEST OF
SOUTH AMERICA.

Mr.. Harper leaves no fears in your
mind that the colonel will not be up to
the high water mark OF health when
he arrives on these shores. IT has
been a "dee-lightful' trip.
When Mr.. Harper was seen on his
arrival last week by Tribune rep
resentative he told Of the name
which the natives have dubbed the
colonel. 1t is far more musical than
the Bwana Jumbo which was fastened
on him by the African natives, and
which was given him because Of his
prowess as a hunter. The South Amer
lean name is "Muy Simpatico"
"rhcy refer TO him thus because OF
his sympathy" said the secretary.
"Mr. Roosevelt has an ear for every
one. A literal translation of the ex-
preston would be How sympathetic or
How nice he is
The name Roosevelt has been a
stumper for the inhabitants of South
America of high and low degree.

parted company with the Roosevelt eX-
petition earlier in the year.
Mr.. Harper, an Englishman by birth,
was private secretary TO the editor OF

to this city, in 1908.
Besides a vivid recollection Of the
trip, Mr.. Harper brought back with
him five cases Of material, which have
been turned over to the American Mu-
scum Of Natural History; also a giant
South American tortoise. The colonel
wanted to present the tortoise to the
New York Geological Park, and, as
fate would have il, the creature sur

A picture of South's hand fixed on
