ROOSEVELT PARTY H EXTEII IP Expedition in search of Rare Animals Mav Push Into Chinese Section AMRITSAR, India The Roose velt expedition, in qnest of rare animals ot the moantains and jungles of j Asia, had -not decided when it passed through Kashmir oa its way; to the Pamirs, by Just what route it would return or how long ! its trip would last. There was! some prospect, it "was eaid. that 'the tour might be ex tended to January and that it was possible the expedition might be continued ir'.u China and not re turn, to India. The expedition, including Col one! Theodore Roosevelt; Kermit Roosevelt. I George Cherrie and Mr. Cutting, a cinema operator, made the first' part of .its trip Into India without incident. The mem bers traveled - over the - well- nown route from Srinagar to Leh and Ladakh. There fs abundant game in that section of. the coun try, but the expedition was inter ested in 'getting the ovis poll, on the lofty heights of the Pamirs and the long-haired tiger in the Thianshan! mountains of Chinese Turkestan. , The ovis poll, or Pamier sheep. is not so rare as some may think, but as; it habitates the high part of the Pamir range, the shooting of it is made-difficult. This ahl mal is the. largest of the sheep Spangleland the land-of, the tircus abounds in quaint con--Irasts and curious little incoagrni tfes ' proving the"old trufE that tinman nature is V the' same ithe World. ovar.i-. . ... fcL.i.W::'-' For .'example, beautiful Rose Jlleffenacb, the Hungarian eques trienne wl the RinglintBrothers. na Barn am i, Bailey, combined circus, wopjd.neter thinJc of en-. tering the arena before- John Sla ter, the- faithful old clown, came to give her milk-wiite steed, "Pico," a jfriendly pat'and a lump off sugar:! This is a daily occar. reace, and' the bond of eomraderie between the veteran "Joey," the horse, and the fair rider is strong, human and free from sentiment. In a corner of his dressing room trunk, John slater keeps a store of ' the succulent morsels and he never fails to give hlse equin friend friend his dally treat. Miss Rose smiles graciously and ; ex changes friendly greetings with the old clown before riding Into the ring. She regards him as a harbinger of good luck. With her sister Mitzi, Miss Rose has ridden in all the principal clr cases of Continental Enrope; Un like the majority of "brother" and "sister" teams on the stage, where the ties are merely ' professional, the Rieffenach-i sisters can ; lay claim to genuine bonds ot kinship.

I and he is here to do their worry ing when it comes to display. into a spiral form, five to six feet around the curve. The long-haired tiger is found in the Chinese Turkestan regions, often grows to a length of 12 feet. The ovis poll, or Pamir sheep, is Rawalpindi by train in the blaring heat of May and reached Punjab : when the thermometer registered 115 degrees in the shade. From Rawaplindi the par ty went by automobile 202 miles up and down the mountainside. The travelers while In the Kash mir valley were guests of Sir and Lady John B. Wood but they re mained only sufficiently long for their transport arrangements to be-made. Their haste In getting away was due to the fact that this year there is a cholera epi demic of more than ordinary pro portions. Deaths have been oc curring at the rate of 1.500 to 1,700 a week since April. In the preparation of their equipment Colonel Roosevelt and his associates were ably assisted while Kashmir by Major A. J. Ilinde, assistant resident of Kash mir and British joint commission of Ladakh. In the' transportation of. their equipment and supplies coolies and yaks ; were used dur ing the first stages of the Jour ney throughout the Leh regional Coolies are hired for .24 cents a day and ponies for 30 cents a day as far as Leh. During the first 100 miles tp Leh the expedition met Rev. and Mrs. Heber of the Moravian mis sion; Mr. and Mrs. Owen Jonen of Chicago, and Major George Va B, Gillan, consul general at Kash gar, who represents the America a .well as British interests. j In order to go Into Chinese Turkestan the Roosevelt expedi tion was obliged to obtain per mits from the Peking government which enabled them to enter ter ritory which" is truly a sports men's paradise and very little traveled by white people. ' Only 12 passes a year are given to travelers ' to visit Leh and Ladakh. six for the first half and six for the Utter half, thb being necessary because of transit diffi culties and also because of food problems, much of the food hav ing to be taken from Srinagar." I In addition to their Interest in the hunting of rare animals mem bers of the expedition always were confronted with food prob lems and some of them, especially Kermit Roosevelt, took every op portunity to' help solve these, lie always had ready his fl9hlng rods and used them tp good advantage for the entire party In the Dras and Tarkand rivers. The progress and success of the Roosevelt expedition bt being watehed with considerable inter est by English sportsmen now in India, although the new; that fil ters through is very meager. It is much the same as it was on the last Everest expedition when the news Indian received of J.he moun tain climbers was dated London. Most of the dispatches that have come through up to this time merely said: "All s well with the Roosevelts," or words to that ef fect.
