Theodore Roosevelt died in his home at Oyster Bay at 4:15 o'clock yesterday morning. He passed away in his sleep, without suffering pain. His death, stunningly unexpected despite his illnesses of recent years, was caused by 'a pulmonary embolism, which means that a clot of blood was carried through an artery to the lungs, where it stopped tho circulation. Weakening of the blood vessels which caused the embolism accompanied tha attack of inflammatory rheumatism for which Col. Roose- velt was treated at Roosevelt Hospital from November 11 to Christmas Day. The original cause of both manifestations was the infection of n tooth dating back twenty years. All his life the former President had drawn unmercifully upon his marvellous store of energy. Nevertheless up to a comparatively recent period one would have guessed that ho had many years yet to live. But the man who lived the strenuous life as well as preached it survived his sixtieth birthday by only seventy days. nil Wl.hr. to lie Follorrrd.
