0, It's Daring, Tearing Teddy!
BY EDMUND VANCE OOOKE.
O, it's daring, tearing Teddy is the man for you and me;
His foot is on the hilltop and his shadow's on the sea;
He never was a Waser; he's a Iser and To-Be,
So it's hi! yl! Teddy! with a tiger.
He's a scream and he's a scholar,
He's a hit and he's a boiler;
He's a sailor from the ocean, he's a hunter from the plain.
He's a little rough-and-ready,
But he's Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!
So we're all Rough Riders for the next campaign.
O, he handed us a lemon and we took it at a gulp;
It was sugar to the taste, but it was rotten at the bulp,
But who are we that one of us should dare impute a culpe
To Teddy, hi! yi! Teddy! with a tiger!
For he's snappy and he's scrappy,
And was made to make us happy;
He was born to bo our ruler; we were born to watch him reign.
He's a little bit unsteady,
But he's Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!
Bo we're all Head Hunters for the next campaign
He's the pet of foreign princes, he's the sort of man they like,
The nearest thing to a Yankee King who ever struck the pike,
Bo let's run him in the white house and let court and congress hike,
For It's hi! yi! Teddy! with a tiger!
Not for us is tariff tinkfng,
Not for us is talk and thinking.
But for us is only Teddy, for we've got him on the brain.
He's a little hot and heady,
But he's Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!
A.nd we're all Big Stickers for the next campaign.
0, his smile' 1b like the lightning as it rives the forest tree;
His voice is like the thunder as it rolls across the sea,
And he rises every morning just to set the sunlight free.
So it's hi! yi! Teddy! with a tiger!
O, our heads are somewhat hazy,
But we know that he's a daisy,
'And it's lovely to be crazy a4d it's sweet to be Insane; »
O, he's powdery-and-leady
But he's Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!
Bo we're all World's Wonders for the next campaign.

PROMOTERS
STILL HAVE
SOME HOPE
(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SAN FRANCISCO, June 18.—
Louis Blot announced late today
that he would put on a card at his
arena Monday afternoon to test
ili.- power of the authorities to in
terfere with a boxing contest
which in all respects will be simi
lar to the Kaufmann-Langford
fight as planned. Blot said that
he would undergo arrest and pros
he wonld undergo arrest and
prosecution to bring about a deel-'
sion in the matter, and that every
effort would be made to get a
quick decision.
(By Max ltalthaoar.)
SAN FRANCISCO, June 18.—
Like drowning men clinging to a
straw, Tex Rlckard and Jack Glea
son still entertain some hope that
the Jeffries-Johnson fight will
take place In San Francisco, al
though they admit that they are
somewhat dismayed by Louis
Blot's decision, made at 11 o'clock
today, to postpone the Kaufmann-
Langford fight until next Satur
day. Early today there was a
possibility that a definite an
nouncement that Reno would be
the battleground would be forth
coming before nightfall, but
Blot's postponement, combined
with the decision to hold a test
fight next Monday in Blot's arena,
.out a crimp in their plann.
Despite the optimism displayed
by the promoters, the almost
unanimous belief is that Reno will
be the battleground. In fact,
there is a suspicion that Oleason
and Rlckard have already decided
upon Reno, but that they are hold-
Ing back and keeping the situation
in an uncertain state for the pur
pose of getting better terms.

jGREATEST WELCOME IN NATION'S
HISTORY ACCORDED ROOSEVELT
ON RETURN TO NEW YORK TODAY
NKW YORK, June 18.—Theo
dore Roosevelt returned to Amer
ica today, after an absence of fif
teen months, during which time he
hunted big game in African Jun
gles, hob-nobbed with kings and
royalty in Kurope and acted - tv
American ambassador at the fu
neral of King Edward VII.
He went away on March 23,
1909, shortly after his retirement
from the highest office in the 1 gift
of the American people. He cam*
back today a private citizen, bul
one to whom was tendered the
most enthusiastic greeting evei
given a returning countryman.
The reception to Colone
Roosevelt started at daybreak
this morning, when the Hamburg-
American liner Kaiserln Auguste
Victoria came abreast of Fire is
land, down the Long island coast,
60 miles out of New York harbor.
It continued at Quarantine, and
in a naval pageant up the Hudson
river; it reached a climax in Bat
tery park, where the official wel
coming took place, and became a
real American greeting, in which
Theodore Roosevelt was the guest
of his friends, the "common peo
ple," in the march up Broadway
and Fifth avenue.
Off Ambrose light the battleship
South Carolina and the torpedo
boats, anchored there at Taft's or
der, boomed out the presidential
salute as the Kaiserln passed. It
*ras the highest honor ever paid
to a private .citizen. Then the
warships joined in the naval par
aide in Roosevelt's honor.
A large number of excursion
boats, yachts and press tug's gath
ered at Fire island last night and
were there when the Kalserin hove

tlw Albany, bearing the Republi
can club of New fork; the Nas
sau, carrying 300 of the Roose
velt Neighbors' association of Oys
ter; Bay; the Commodore, with the
Hamilton club of Chicago, and
several private yachts, which gave

Replying to Gaynor's speech of welcome, Roosevelt today
said:
"I wish to hank you and your committee and through
them, the American people, for their greetings. I need not
say that lam deeply moved. No man could receive such a
greeting and not feel very proud and very humble.
"I have been away a year and a quarter. I have thor
