TEDDY ROOSEVELT
DIESUNEXPECTEDLY
Passed Away While Asleep, With No
One at His Bedside-BIood Clot
on Lung, Result of Rheu-
matism, Was Cause.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Jan. 6.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt, for seven years pres
ident of the United States, died at his
home at Sycamore Hill at 4:15 o'clock
this morning.
The famous American, exponent Of
"the strenuous life," who had fought
in the Spanish American war, and
risked death in hunting big game and
exploring the jungles of Africa and
South America, passed away peace
fully while asleep, the victim of a
blood clot in the lung, resulting from
infammatory rheumatism, traceable
to an infected tooth from which he
suffered 30 years ago.
To the very last, Colonel Roosevelt
was active in the interests of his
country. His program of public ad-
dresses, intended to help hearten the
nation for its part in the war, and to
strengthen the resistance to enemy
propaganda and pacifism, was inter-
iupLeu idtc III tut Idl WneH ne ell
tered hospital for treatment of his
long-standing ailment, but the colonel
redoubled his efforts in the writing of
editorials and public statements, one
of the latter having been read only
last night at an assemblage by the
American Defense Society. His last
day was spent about his home, read
ing and writing.
Colonel Roosevelt was preaching
preparedness long before it was gen
orally believed that the United States
would enter the war, and when the
historic step was taken, his four sons
and son-in-law were among the first
to volunteer for military service
New York, Jan. 6.-Colonel Roose-
welt suffered a pulsomary embolism
which near cost him his life three
weeks before he left Roosevelt hospit-
al on Christmas day, it was learned
today. Nothing regarding this APP
proach to death has hitherto become
known but it was revealed today by
DIR. Richards in telling Of the colonel's
exact condition during his last illness.
