A letter has been addressed by a boy of 85 years to Roosevelt on his African sport:, and is published in a number of French papers. The following is a translation :—Sir,—l am going to write you a letter which, I think, you will not like very much, but I am going to write it all the same. Now, sir, your son, and your friends are tho most cruel people that 1 know. Myself, I think it is horrible to kill zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes, lions,, tigers, etc. I am very glad that you missed the three or four wild boars, and that one of your dogs was killed by the buffalo. I know all this because I read the articles in "Scribncr's Jfagazine." I am not French. 1 am Irish and Scotch. I know how lo read English, but. I only know how to write French. If you please, will you answor my letter and tell mc what you think of people who kill animals (o amuse themselves. —Your affectionate little Roland Mac Donald (aged S years and a half).
