COLONEL FINDS
STRANGE BIRD
Back Home With Tale of Fowl
That Has Whiskers. Lives in
Cave and Eats Nuts

New York. March 25. - Colonel
Roosevelt arrived from Port au Spain.
Trinidad. on the steamship Mature. of
the Trinidad Line. and landed at the
foot of Amity street, Brooklyn, about
$50 o'clock last night Mr.. and Mrs
Roosevelt went in an automobile to
the home of their son-in-law. Dr.
Richard Derby at 11G East Seventy
ninth street, where they passed the
night.
Mr. Roosevelt was looking in splen-
did health and was decidedly sun
burned. When someone asked him
how he was feeling he threw out his
my usual debilitated condition"
Mr. Roosevelt made a statement to
all the reporters who boarded the Ma
turo lie said:
Mexican Prophecy True
Il am not prepared TO make any
statement on politics at present or on
the international situation beyond re-
ferring YOU TO what | said in the book
| published six weeks ago called Fear
Cod and Take Your Own Part If you
will turn to the chapter on Mexico
you will see that everything l there
said and have been saying for the last
three years applies exactly to the pres
ent situation, and that all l said in
prophecy has been made good by the
events. And / call your special atten-
ton to what l said as to furnishing
arms to one set OF bandits in order to
help them against another set of ban
dts instead of helping Uncle Sam
against all of them.
And | also call your attention to
what | therein said as to the effect of
the adherence to the policy of refusal
TO prepare and of being too proud to
fight.
In Trinidad I found peculiar
night hawk or whippoorwill about as
big as an ordinary night owl. This
bird is called the Guacharo and the
curious thing about it is that 1t lives
in caves, has whiskers and eats nuts.
Yes. it actually lives in the caves and
eats nuts"
Has Henry Ford been down there ?"
asked someone.
Mr.. Roosevelt grinned, but did not
reply TO the question.
Tells of Strange Bird
That bird" he went on, goes 10
the palm trees at night and gets the
nuts on which it lives and then it goes
back into the cave and sleeps in them
in the daytime. But it eats nuts"
And barks like a dog?" put in
stout gentleman who was sitting at the
table in the cabin.
No" declared Mr.. Roosevelt. lit
does not bark like a dog. I am de-
cidedly adverse TO anything in the way
of nature taking. The natives call the
bird diablotas, or little devils. Bats
live in the same cave with the birds,
but the bats live farther back in the
cave. ] am going TO see the Scribners
and find out If they want an article on
those birds"
He said later that he also expected
10 see George w. Perkins, the Pro-
sressive leader. and perhaps one or
two other men interested in politics.
He will 20 to Oyster Bay late to-day
with Mrs. Roosevelt He warned the
reporters that he would have nothing
to say about politics or the inter-
national situation Saturday or Sunday.
When asked if he might not break his
silence If there should be any sensa-
ttonal developments in the Mexican
situation. he said:
That will depend upon what such
developments may be-"
