PAY YOUR TAXES EARLY A Long, Tiresome Wait Will Be Spared the “Early Bird.” Peaceful and quiet, the drone of the county treasurer is broken now end then these days by a taxpayer. About thirty seconds are all required to separate him from the cash necessary to pay the fireman, run the schools, etc. Along in October, according to C. O. Harris, deputy treasurer, folks will stand !n line, half a day, their feet aching from the tile eourth 3e floor, to escape being delinquent in paying taxes when the curtain rings on the performance the first Monday in November. Harris said he wished the public could be educated to pay their taxes sooner. More than ?5,000,000 was collected in the first Installment. Almost that much remains due on the second half.

INTRODUCTION ‘‘Admit W. Robert For an to see me AT ONCB—no matter where I am. T. Roosevelt.'’ Theodore Roosevelt serihbled that In a notebook, tore the Sheet out, and then handed it to Robert Koran in a hotel in Cairo one day in Mareh, 1910. As the only newspaoer correspondent to remain with Roosevelt throughout his journeys in Africa, Koran had eome to know the famous statesman-adventurer intimately. The_ Roosevelt expedition sailed from New York on the “Hamburg” on Mareh 23. 1900. Koran acompailied the party. With Colonel Roosevelt sailed his second son. Kermit. and three scientific members of his staff— Major I-'dgar A. Mearns. Edmund Holier and . Allen Loring. At Naples tlie expedition transhipped to the '‘Admiral.” a German steamer. CHAPTER 1 At the Gateway of East Africa “I ri | Y gosh’ that's a wonderful i D si^ht! " *——■ I The delighted exclamation cut crisply into the awed silence. It came from Theodore Roosevelt; seeing for the first time the beautiful entrance to the harbor of Mombasa Island, the “gateway” of British East Africa. It was the afternoon of April 21, 1309. and our voyage from New York —whence we had sailed just a month earlier—was due to end in a couple of hours at most. We were standing on the bridgedeck of the Deutsche-Ost-Afrika-Linla steamer “Admiral”—Theodore Roosevelt, Kermit, Selous, a few other passengers, and myself. All of that group were staring across the placid blue waters of the Indian Ocean toward the glorious tropical scenery, rapidly unfolding before us. Roosevelt’s eyes were shining with intense excitement; his hands gripped the rail until the kunckles were bloodless, and his entire sturdy body seemed to be poised and expectant, like a well-trained pointer at work in the field. Small wonder for that enthusiasm! At last a dream of many years was about to be fulfilled. Within an hour he would be standing on the soil of British East Africa, the “wonderland rs big game.” The call of Africa, long beckoning, he had answered at last. “They call it the ‘grave of reputations,’ Colonel,” I remarked. “Not of mine,” he answered emphatically, and then laughed boyish-

ly, as if at some joke of his own thinking. “I don’t expect ever to return, after this expedition, is concluded," protested Roosevelt further. “T. R.” sighed, and his face was

stern as he turned once more toward the enchanting scene spreading fanwise before us. We were slowly entering the fringe of coral reefs that guard the harbors of Mombasa and Kilindini. The glories of that tropical scenery gripped us. The brilliant green of the foliage, with its vista of whitewashed European bungalows and Arab hou~s nestling amongst them, showed the, ancient port at its very best. It was the period of the monsoon rains, and everything was fresh and sweet-smelling. The air was filled with the aroma of the spices of the Orient, and the dull booming of the rollers of the Indian Ocean upon the coral ‘rocks. Here and there the curious Boabab tree gave

forth a welcome shade, being rich In dark green foliage at this season of the year; the feathery cocoanut paims reared their heads above their smaller brothers; towering above all were the giant mango trees, and, as a foreground, the somber-brown, contorted coral rocks. “Beautiful!” Theodore Roosevelt exclaimed again and again, feasting upon the loveliness of this magic harbor of Kilindini.

of flame. , The boom of the heavy guns echoed across the waters toward the distant blue outlines of the Shimba Hills, and then was cast back at us. “Boom—bang!” came the guns in quick succession, until the regulation salute had been completed. And Roosevelt stood at rigid attention, his face inscrutable and tense. Africa accorded our twenty-sixth President a noisy welcome to her shores! The official respects of the Government of East Africa and of the British navy on the Cape of Good Hope station were quickly paid; and, before ten minutes had passed after the “Admiral” had cast anchor, the Roosevelts and their party were de-

scending the ship's ladder to the naval launch from the “Pandora." Just before he left Colonel Roosevelt showed me a cablegram that he was going to send to the German emperor, cordially assenting to my use of the message as a news-story. The cablegram read: “I desire to express to your majesty my deep appreciation for my treatment on the ‘Admiral’ under Capt. G. Doherr, and my great admiration for the astounding energy of the growth of the mercantile and colonial interests of Germany in East Africa.” This message of good-will was • •haracteristic of Theodore Roosevelt. More than once on that voyage between Naples and Mombasa he had spoken to me in most appreciative terms of the type of men Germany was sending out for pioneer work in their East African colony. As suddenly as the sun had set, so had darkness swept over the land. In the tropics there is no twilight. The sun dips below the horizon and, it few minutes later, it is night. With the disappearance of the sun came a deluge of rain. No waterproof ever invented could withstand such a torrential rainfall. But the rain did not fall until the special train, conveying the Roosevelts to Mombasa, had departed. As the ex-president had set foot on the quay, the large gathering of the official and civilian notables of the island had greeted him with loud and prolonged cheers. There coujd be no mistaking the genuine warmth and earnest cordiality of that first greeting to British East Africa. Next day at noon we were to start forth on the most wonderful railroad in the world through nature's zoo. Ouc journej’ would not end until we reached the first camp of the Roosevelt expedition on the game-crowded Kapiti plains—2Sß miles from the coast. CHAPTER II “Goodhy, Teddy Roosevelt—and Good Hunting*” Colonel Rcosevelt and Kermit, as well as the three scientific members of the expedition—Maj. Edgar A. Mearns (U. S. A. retired), Edmund Heller and J. Allen Boring—were dressed In serviceable-looking khaki hunting clothes and sun-helmets. R. J. Cunningham, the manager and professionall guide of the expedition, had come down to Mombasa to meet the party and to help them entrain their large quantities of stores and baggage. He was going to travel with the special train to Kapiti Plains, and had been hard at work since daylight superintending the loading of the luggage for the party. ,
OUT OUR WAY—By WILLIAMS
In addition to the personnel of the Roosevelt expedition the train was to carry as far as Nairobi the acting governor, Sir Frederick J. Jackson, Lady Jackson, other government and railway officials, and the newspaper men. There had never been any secret that Colonel Roosevelt strongly, and I think justifiably, objected to newspaper men following him to or into Africa. He had been kind enough to waive his objection insofar as I was personally concerned; out he made it clear to other correspondents who had traveled with him from Naples to Mombasa that when we reached Africa the bars would not be lifted. “You can go to Africa, of course,” he had told us. “I can't prevent that; nor do I wish to do so. But I have every right to insist that my privacy in the hunting camps must be respected. I have not the slightest objection to any of you making your headquarters at points on the railroad, but you must not follow me on my hunting expeditions.” Personally, I think we all realized that his wishes in this respect were reasonable and that they should be respected honorably. He nad promised to let us have such news of his shooting luck as would be worth news-cables but, quite naturally, he

was bound to protest the terms of his contract with Messrs. Charles Scribner and Sons for his book on “African Game Trails.” So far none of us had the slightest foundation for complaint about his fair treatment of us. He had been frankness itself; and, moreover, he had even gone out of his way to remove obstacles from our paths.
