FAILED TO QET BLUE TIGER Explorer, However, Brought Back Many Souvenirs of Travel After a journey of more than 25,00 miles, which led him Into the wilds of Southwestern China. Hoy Andrews, ethnologist and head of the Asiastic zoological expedition sent out by the-American museum of natural history, la months ago, has returned to New York with a lline collection of mammals, birds and reptllea. He brings, also stories of Mongol tribes who roam the vast, anowy mountainous regions of Yunnan: of caravan highwaymen that plunder for gold dust and Jade: of the blue tiger of Foochow, which they set out to find, and a cub "honey" bear captured near the headwaters of the YaiiKtze-Kiang. The expedition left in March. 1316, for a survey of the interior of China aa an expedition of research, which is to ba followed by othess of greater size and which will carry on the work' in a more extensive manner.

Mr. Andrews waa accompanied by his wife, who acted as the olticial photographer, and waa joined China by Edmund Heller. Mr. Heller ae. coinpanied Colonel Roosevelt on his African expedition and is an expert small animal collector.

After leaving Peking the party began its tlrst shooting in the province of Foochow in search of tha blue tiger. "A missionary, the Rev. Harry R. Cadwell," Mr. Andrews said, "who has killed many tigers in China, said he had seen a tiger of maitese color.

The natives named him the Great Invincible, He is here today and gone tomorrow. He was killing children in three or four different villages. "One day we staked a live goat in th lair where the Great Invincible was supposed to bo spending the day. At I o'clock In the evening we heard tho rustling of the grass and knew he was coming to the edge of the clearing. At thai time, when the moment waa tense, three Chinese wood-cutters came down on th opposite hlu jelling in order to scarf away tigers.

One blue tiger turnec back into the thicket and was gone. "The first work of the expedition wan begun in Fukien province, where wc worked for two months. Leaving Fukien we took up the main work in thi. province of 1'unan. which comprtsea tho southwestern part of china.

"The nomadic primitive people whu live In the mountains regarded us strange beings. They cMd not know whether China was a republic or a monarchy, neither had they ever heard tha; a. great war was waging in Europe. Very few of them had ever seen a whito man aJid fewer still had ever beheld ti white woman, "We got two honey-bear cubs-about week oldone of them I brought bad; with me.

Bands of soldiers would -shoo: at passing travelers for pastime anil target practice, but we were told that the raising of the American flat? would protect our party. And it did.
