HOSPITAL TODAY
May Be Permanently Deaf in His Left
Ear as Result of Recent Surgical
Operation

NEW YORK, March 1.-The condi
ton of Col Theodore Roosevelt who for
some time has been patient at Roose-
welt hospital, has progressed 50 favorably
that the former President Will leave the
hospital today and take up quarters in a
local hotel Here it is expected he will
remain for several days under the observa
ton Of his physician, and then if his con
valescence continues az it has for the past
week, he will 90 to his home i'll Oyster
Bay
In the announcement made at the hospi-
tai yesterday concerning Col. Roosevelt 5
condition, the fear was expressed that he
may be permanently deaf in his left ear
as a result of the operation he has under
gone His physicians added that it viii
he necessary for Col Roosevelt to rest as
much as possible for fortnight in order
that he may recover fully. Col Roose
welt has stated his determination to fill
/ Speaking engagements III Maine on March
2s and his physicians say they believe he
Will be able to do so providing he eXer-
| cises due caution
The physicians bulletin issued yester-
| day says:
For the last four years Col. Roosevelt
has internationally suffered from the after
| effects OF his Brazilian exploration This
acute attack has given us the opportunity
! to remove the cause probably completely,
(! and we believe from the rapidity with
which the incision has healed that he is
in an unusually vigorous condition and
that he will speedily be III even better
shape than before
While he was being treated but not
in connection with this condition. he
developed an acute infection OF botl
middle ears, which necessitated an Incl
sion Of both drum membranes The right
ear recovered and in a few weeks tbs
hearing IN this ear viii be as good a.
ever
subsequently Infection spread to tn
internal ear on the left side, Temporarily
and probably permanently destroying al
hearing functions. 1t has also destroye,
the static functions in this ear and som
months will pass before the compensa
ton for the loss Of this function com
pletely takes place
In other words, it will be some month
: before he will recover complete contrc

find himself dizzy at quick or une,

The Truce of the Tiger.

Let US have peace and live as
friends, the willy tiger said:
The sloth bear cooked a listening ear
and scratched his shaggy head.
Let us have peace as brethren
should, the crouching tiger purred:
And the great, warm heart of the weary
bear was very deeply stirred.
Enough, enough of blows and blood. 4"
the bear gruff answer came,
= shall call truce 10 the war we
wage, if You will do the same
Il shall let you bind with wire Of steel
my mighty fighting paws.
" If YOU in turn will pledge TO me to
shear your cruel claws.
" Well spoken, friend. the tiger
whined, as he bound the huge sloth
bear,
Ny claws viii soon he harmless rs the
pads of the imping hare.
Thereat he sank his talons through the
sloth bear 5 wondering eyes,
And gashed his breast. The wounded
beast implored the needless skies.
The tiger snarled, ono pledge own.
| no truce, no oath, no law,
But the force that dwells in a sudden
spring and the clutch of my mighty
claw.
- Beware, BEWARE the great bear
means, as, blinded, he makes his way:
Beware the lure of the tigers truce
or be what / am today.
Beware the purr of the crouehins cat,
beware of its tricky whine;
"Oh else-in a stroke of its rending
claw-your fate shall he as mine
