/ able for the fact that Colonel
- Roosevelt was present. and
also because 1t was the first occasion
for the annual Produce stakes to be
run. This was for horses and mares
born and bred In British East Africa.
Kermit rode in this and another race
with considerable judgment and skill,
but without the good fortune to win.
The race track was a couple of
miles outside Of Nairobi and on the
edge of the Athi Plains. Wild game
Of all kinds could be seen with the
naked eye just beyond the track. On
more than one occasion, lions had
been hunted and killed on the track,
and more than once in the history of
the Turf Club lions had been so I'M
sporting as to interrupt training gal
lops over the course.
The whole of East Africa. with the
commencement of the new week.
turned its thoughts to the public
banquet which was to he given to
Colonel Roosevelt in the Railway In
stitute at Nairobi on the evening of
Aug. 3. Every one, officials and set
tiers alike, was feverishly awaiting
his speech in the hope that it would
bring forth a favorable expression
of opinion on the country and it's flu
ture prospects.
Everybody felt that the country's

cure seats at the tables, were seated
round the edge of the hall so that
they could all hear Colonel Roose-
velt's speech
II was plain to see that every one
present was in a state Of suppressed
excitement. for the Importance Of
the distinguished Americans words
to the country's future had been
realized by all.
\The hall and tables had been taste
fully decorated by the ladies'. and be
hind the chaiEman's seattle national
aags Of Great Britain and the United
States formed frame work for the
coat of arms Of the Roosevelt family
The acting governor, Sir Frederick
Jackson, presided at the banquet,
with Colonel Roosevelt on his right
and Kermit on his left. Also at the
governors table We're the Roman
Catholic bishop Of East Africa, Lord
Delamere, and a number of the most
prominent residents Of the country.
The toasts of tho king and the presi-
dent of the United States were ac-
companied by the playing of the re.
spective national anthems by the
native band Of the Third Battalion
Of the Kings African Rifles.
After Sir Frederick Jackson had
expressed the great pleasure of all
East Africans in entertaining
Colonel Roosevelt and in assisting
MIN to make his visit both pleasant
and successful, the town clerk of
Nairobi, Captain E. l.. Sanderson,
rose and read the address of well
come, which had been printed on
silk and enclosed in a very hand
some elephant tusk mounted in
silver and suspended on a silver
chain.
After Sir Frederick Jackson had
presented the address and the tusk
to Colonel Roosevelt, he called upon
Major c. J. Ross to present him with
Il souvenir OF East Africa on behalf
Of the American residents of East
Africa.
In a pithy speech. this hardened

Colonel Roosevelt with a magnificent
rhinoceros-foot tobacco-hox, mounted
in silver and with silver replicas of
Il rhinoceros and buffalo head upon
the lid.
Sir Frederick Jackson then pro-
posed the health of Theodore Roose-
welt. The toast was received with a
remarkable outburst Of wild enthu-
siasm, every one springing to his
feet and singing, For he'sTa jolly
good fellow" with true Highland
honors.
Colonel Roosevelt was obviously
deeply touched and moved by the
genuine warmth of his reception.
This ovation was renewed when he
rose to his feet to reply to the ad-
dress of welcome, his long speech
being listened to with rapt atten.

be Of the right type. There has
been a remarkable spread Of the
English-speaking race over the waste
spaces Of the earth.
Credit is due to the people who
stay at home. But the major portion
Of the credit is due to those who so
out and conquer these wild CONT
nents. The frontier is no place for
weak and shiftless people, and the
submerged tenth offers exactly the
type of persons who cannot pros
per in a new country. But the same
kind of man who did we'll when he

From sugar and cotton to wheat
and wool. apples and strawberries,
you grow almost everything. And
l believe that one Of the feats which.
in the future, will be held especially
to the credit of the white race during
the last decade is the building of the
Uganda Railway.

we found that we had to build the

CHAPTER XIV
Roosevelt Speaks at Nairobi

Believe me, am very deeply
touched with this fresh display of
kindness and good will which l have
received ever since 1 have set my
foot in British East Africa. You,
Sir Frederick. have been especially
good. By far the major portion of
the pleasure and success of my trip
IS due TO yoLr effort, and l am glad
Of the chance of thanking you all
the officials, settlers and mission
aries auke-for the way in which I
have been treated"
Theodore Roosevelt's measured
words fell clearly on the ears of the
representative gathering Of East
Africans who had assembled to d.
him honor. Every face was turned
toward the speaker and their atten-
tion was wholly centered on his ut
terances.
From the very first time I stood

lions of fundamentals.
Il think few people realize. out

But there are very large tracts
fit for a fine population Of healthy
and prosperous settlers: and. as this
is one Of the few regions of the
world still left which Is fit for new
white settlement, it would be a real
calamity to neglect it.

Just as in our west the great
railroads were built, not because the
country already needed them, but to
build up a country which should in
the future need them, so here with
you the railroad had been built to
develop and build up the country;

fore it can be expected to pay.
