 "The attack must have been very sudden On New Years day inflam- matory rheumatism developed in Col onel Roosevelt's right hand which be- came very much swollen. Mrs. Roose- welt sent for nurse in the village and the colonel was made as comfort able as possible. It did not occur to me at that time that he was seriously ill
 Hiss Stricker went to Oyster Bay last Saturday to pay the colonel a visit She said:
 At that time the colonel was sleep- ing in his room and did not see him and there was nothing in the circum- stances of his illness at that time to indicate to me that death was near. When Mrs Roosevelt called me this morning, and told me of the colonels death I could hardly believe it.
 Mrs. Roosevelt gave me no particu- lars of his death.
 It is understood that only Mrs. Roosevelt and the nurse were with him at the time of his death. The other members of the family are in other parts of the country or abroad.
 A telephone message received later this morning from Oyster Bay said that Colonel Roosevelt had died at 4 o'clock this morning.
 His Was n Strenuous Life.
 Colonel Roosevelt's career has left such vivid impression upon the peo- pie of his time that it is necessary to touch but briefly upon some of tho more striking phrases of his varied, interesting and "strenuous" life to recall to the public mind full details of his many exploits and experiences.
 Called to the White House in 1901 after President Mckinley had been assassinated, Col. Roosevelt, 42 years of age, became the youngest President the United States has ever had. Three years later he was elected as Presi- dent by the largest popular vote a President has received.
 Thus Roosevelt, sometimes called a man of destiny, served for seven years as the nations chief magistrate. In q subsequent decdae the fortunes of politics did not favor him, for. again a candidate for President-this time leading the Progressive Party which he himself had organlze0 when he differed radically with some of the policies of the Republican Party in 1912--he went down to defeat, to- gether with the Republican candidate William Howard Taft Woodrow Will son, Democrat. was elected
 Col. Roosevelt's enemies agreed with his friends that his life, his char acter and his writings represented d high type of Anericanism.
 Of Dutch ancestry, born in New York City on October 27, 1858, in a house in East Twentieth Street, the baby Theodore was a weakling. He was one of four children who came to Theodore and Martha Bulloch Roose- welt. The mother was of Southern stock and the father of Northern, q situation which during the early years of Theodore Juniors ,boyhood was not allowed to interfere with tho fam lily life of these children during tho Civil War days.
 So frail that he was not privileged b associate with the other boys in his neighborhood. Roosevelt was tutorct privately. in New York and durins
