Many Newspaper Men Start for Africa to Meet "Teddy" Roosevelt.

Gilson Gardner, a well known newspaperman of Washington, D. C., has already sailed from New York to meet ex-president Roosevelt when he emerges from the wilds of Africa! Walter Wellman, who Is generally found trying to do something spectacular, has also started for the Nile to see “Teddy” and the whiskers he has grown while inland, and other newspapermen are headed in the same direction. It is thought that before Roosevelt strikes Port Said there will be a whole army of correspondents and politicians after him. I have bought Mrs. lines’ stamping outfit and will be prepared to do all kinds of stamping. I have a line of embroidery floss.
