Death in the
Shadows of the Dusk
Through the falling darkness rang out
a single shot.
In the wide doorway, between the house
and the sun parlor, the glimmer of a white
clad figure pierced through the gloom, and
a door facing east and a door facing west
both swung on their hinges.
And on the floor, crumpled into an un
gainly heap, lay the inert form of Douglas
Raynor, its outline indistinguishable in the
sudden complete darkness, till a click of a
switch-button sounded and the bright lights
flashed out.

Colonel Roosevelt are his son,

several other trips they invade

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
At 2 o’clock In the ufternoon.

huge Mil far I aturted off lo the Uasin
Gulsho country
They were to camp the first night
at 1-lvo MHoh Camp, uud then make
l.hhima Ravine In one march on
the follow! iik morning. They made
a fine show a.x they started off In
the noise. At their head was carried
native horns and drums adding to
tingle file, Hinging loudly and with
the Ame rican flag.
Colonel Roosevelt remained at
I.ondlnni with <'unnlngshamo and
myself, Intending to wait for the
corning of Mr. and Mrs. Carl
Akeley of the Field Museum of Na
tural History In Chicago, and John
'l. McCutcheon. tho famoua car
toonist of the Chicago Tribune, who
had hoped to see him before his
start for the I’aaln Gulsho.
An hour after the main "safari”
had started, a telegram arrived for
Colonel Roosevelt to aay that Ake
ley party could not reach Lon
diani in time to aco him.
Colonel Roosevelt delayed his de
parture nb longer, hut mounted his
favorite horse, "Tranqujllty,” and
rode after the, safari. He was ac
companied by Ills favorite native
gun-bearer, Rnkharl.
The day following his departure
from Londiani was Theodore Roose
velt’s 61st, birthday. Hermit had

spent his 20th. birthday hunting
near Lake Hannlngton. and had
then already killed all the major
and rnoct dangerous kinds of Afri
can big game.
CHAPTER XIX
Preparations for the Nile Journey
Cunninghame was not. going to ac
company Roosevelt on this trip in
to the Uasln Gulsho country. Things
had been working out smoothly in
connection with the Nile section of
the, great Journey through Africa,
and there was still a very great
deal to he arranged.
So It had been decided that Cun
nlnghame should return to Nairobi,
after the expeditions departure
from Londiani and taka with him
tho colonel’s horse, "Zebra-shape,”
which had gone very sick and
could scarcely walk. He was then
to proceed to Entebbe and Kampala
In Uganda to complete the plans for
tho trip into the Congo and down
the Nile.
Roosevelt was due back In Lnn
dianl In about fjve weeks’ time
from the Uasln Gulsho. and would
then muke a few special hunting
trips to complete his East African
collection, and start for Uganda at
the end of December.
Meanwhile T had written to my
employers in Now York to explain
the details of the plans for Roose
velt's hunting trip down the Nile,
and to ask if they desired me to
follow him.
"When the question of following
Mr. Roosevelt from Uganda on the
long trip northward to Khartoum
came up for consideration, it was
realized that while the trip prob
ably would be made In safety by
the members of the Roosevelt par
ty, still there was always the danger
of a grave accident or an encount
er with some wild beast, the re
sult of which might he fatal to the
hunter Instead of to the hunted.
“Consequently, It has been de
rided to 'cover’ the Roosevelt par
ty fur something like 1,200 miles
through the African wilderness.
This Is probably the first time such
an expedition ever has heen under
taken for the purpose of what might
be called 'news Insurance,.'"
"The great distance to be tra
versed, the rough condition of much
Of the route, the extreme difficulty
of telegraphic communication, and
the hardship of travel, ns well as
Mr Roosevelt’s personal feeling
about being followed by a newspap
er man” were fully understood and
appreciated. Hut—"after due con
sideration of the extraordinary con
ditions- a president of the United
States leaving the White House to
enter the wilds of ’Darkest Africa'—
It has heen decided to order you to
complete your preparations, get
together your caravan of porters,
and follow him on the long jour
ney."
In view of these instructions, I
had decided to accompany ’’R. J.’ to
Uganda and complete my own ar
-1 rangements for the Nile jourhey and
j also to assist him In smoothing
i out his difficulties Jn connection
with tho Roosevelt expedition.
On October no, cunninghame and
; l took train for Kisumu, the rall
' road terminus on the Victoria
Nvanza, en route to Entebbe.
On the train with us traveled Mr.
nnd Mrs. Carl Akeley, John Mc-
Outcheon and an American named
Stevenson. They were on their way
to Mount Klgon via Londiani and
the Uasln Gulsho to shoot elephants
for the Field Museum In Chicago.
They were to Join the Roosevelt
party In the Uasln Gulsho coun
try for a few days' hunting. Wo
said goodby to them at Londiani in
the early hours of tho next morn
ing.
Shortly afterward we were travel

When the Duke of Connaught,
the Duchess and Princess Patricia
had visited Kisumu In 1905, the
then governor. Sir James Hayes-
Sandlers, had ordered that one yard
of American cloth should be Is
sued to each Kuviromlo who came
In to greet the royal party.
When they arrived In Kisumu
from their villages, these quaint
people had used the cloth for every
purpose but that intended. Home of
them had wound the cloth around
their heads like a turban, others had
tied It In a bow round their legs
or arms.
The governor was horrified, but
the royal party seemed to be in
tensely amused.
Hoon our arrangements were com
pleted, and every difficulty that
had beset our paths had been re
moved.
There was nothi-w» left for us to
do but return to Nairobi and rejoin
the Roosevelt expedition.
CHAPTER XX
Good Luck in the Uasin Guisho
At Nairobi I found a letter from
Theodore Roosevelt which gave me
news of great success while hunt
ing in the Uasin Guisho country
and along the hanks of the ‘Nzoi
River. The letter follows:
On Safari,
NOV. 18, 1909.
Dear Koran:
On this trip so far we have bag
ged four elephants, a leopard, a
five-horned giraffe and various an
telopes including roan, bushbuck,
Jackson’s bartebeeste, orbl, sing
sing, topi, bohor, kobus. kob and
reedbuck.
We shot the elepUpnts. In com
pany with Akeley, for the American
Museum of Natural History in New
York, and I shall now give one of
the elephants, we have already
killed and preserved, to the mu
seum of the University of Cali
fornia at San Francisco.
Will you give this also to Ward,
and to Reuter's Agency (Smith,
Mackenzie & Co,)?
1 look forward to seeing you on
the 30th.
Faithfully yours.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
The general health of the ex
pedition had been wonderfully good
all through the hunting, although
Kermit had had a touch of sun
once and also a slight attack of
tick fever on first arriving in the
country.
Colonel Roosevelt felt a slight
return of his Cuban campaign fever
at Lake Nalvasha, and Heller un
derwent a bad go of malarial fever
near Kenya.
They were now concluding their
last big safari in British East Afri
ca. although there were still to be
two or three small ones made by
t'o’onel Roosevelt and Kermit in
dividually. nnd so it was fitting
that they should end it so well.
In all they had made four long
safaris into the outlying districts
of 'British East Africa, having
used Nairobi as their main base
camp.
Cunninghame nnd I went up by
special tiain from Nairobi en No
vember 29 In order to meet them
on their arrival at Londiani on the
following day. They were expected
to march Into Londiani about 11
o’clock.
About 10:30 we saw Kermit and
Leslie Tarlton ri lng across the
plains toward the railroad depot,
unattended by natives but carrying
ttelr rifles across their saddles.
Bbth were delighted to see Cun
ninghame, and were soon busily en
gaged In relating their adventures
and inquiring about the arrange
ments for the Nile trip.
Kermit looked very well and
sunburned; but Tarlton showed
plainly that he was ripe for a long
rest. The responsibilities that had
rested on his shoulders in manag
ing such a big and Important ex
pedition In the field had been al
most overwhelming.

HARD WORK
"Where are you men going?” the
new boss demanded of two darkies
who were shuffling along as if bent
on nothing in particular.
"Boss,” said one, “we is gwine up
to de mill with this heah plank."
"Plank! I don’t see any plank!”
roared the supervisor.
Not at all disturbed by his tone,
the speaker looked down at his
hands, then over his shoulder* Fin
ally. to his fclolw worker, he calm
ly observed:
“Well, now, don’t dat beat all!
Es we ain’t gone an’ clean forgit'de
