Scarcely less Interesting than Ills

almost aa exciting, were tho advcti

Europe. There ho desired to bo treat
ed as u man of loiters and science,
rather than ua n sportsman, and his
Heslro was gratllled. Hut In addition,
Europe insisted on receiving hlin us
tho moat distinguished American of
the time, and everywhere ho went

Mr. Hoosovolt thorcupon canceled tho

Thus, with his usual luck and facility
for "coming out on top," ho had tho
best of the matter nil around and his

there on April 23 ho lectured in tho
Sorbonno before a great audlenco of
savants and students. The municipal

France and various learned societies
vied with each other in doing honor to
tho visitor, and for amusement ho was
taken to tho field of aviation, whoro
ho saw some exciting aeroplane
flights.
Traveling northward somewhat leis

and Copenhagen, Mr. Hoosovell ar

King Edward caused thu curtailment
of tho program to a considerable ex

guest in tho palace, Mr. Roosevelt
stopped at tho American embassy,
and though William received him and
dlned him nnd showed him tho Gor
man army In maneuvers, tho mora
spectacular and public features wero
omitted. On May 12 Mr. Roosevelt de
livered at the University of Uerlin nn

was highly praised for its scholarly
quulltics.
Having boon appointed special am

tho dead monarch was curried to tho

This was tho most pretentious of all

The University of Cambridge hon

As Mr. Roosevelt accepted his di

Theodore Roosevelt's hunting trip In
I Africa, olllclnlly known as tho Smith

I ly eleven mouths and was most suc
cessful In every way. Tho colonel's
desire to hunt big game was not all
that was back of the trip, for the
Smithsonian Institution wanted spool-
mens of the fauna and Horn of tho

. president to obtain them. For this
1 reason, a part of tho expenses wero
