FIGHT TO GET
TEDDY'S HAIR
SOUTH AMERICAN NATIVES RAID
BARBER SHOP TO OBTAIN
SOUVENIRS OF HIS VISIT.

New York City-An incident of
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's trip up
the Paraguay river into the heart of
Brazil, of part of which the colonel
himself was probably ignorant when
he sailed for Europe on Saturday,
was related today by DR.. l.. l.. Benson
of Los Angeles, who with John De
Buhr has arrived here after two years
prospecting in central South America.
DR.. Benson and Mr.. De Buhr met
the colonel at Corumba, just after
Colonel Roosevelt had come in from
a five-day's hunt. The meeting took
place in barber shop. Colonel Roose
welt walked in, the whole town at his
heels. He strobe straight to the chair
mounted it, sank into its depths-the
barber has real American chair, it
seems-and to the barber, who was
now bowing and scraping, he indicat-
ed, by signs and in the lingo, that
he wanted haircut.
The natives crowded about the
door and watched every move during
the haircutting. AS soon as the coll
onel had left the chair there was a
decent interval while the natives
made room for the distinguished
traveller to get out of the shop; then
the crowd closed in and wedged part
of itself in through the doorway,
where the fortunate fell to picking
up the hair clipped from the colonels
head. Those less fortunate quarreled
with those who got in and there was
considerable scrapping because there
was not enough hair on the floor for
everybody to get tuft.
This hair, the barber later assured
Dr. Benson, the townspeople took
home. They tied it with bows of rib
bon and put it in albums or lockets
TO be kept in memory of the historic
occasion when the Great Roosevelt
passed through Corumba going
