Mr. Roosevelt was intensely interested in every phase of life around the city; and in the course of his stay, besides being entertained by the Americans in Cairo, and by the Khedive at Ahdin Pamee, he visited the Sphinx and pyramids. Elhazar University, a Mohammedan institution, where he saw old men and boys squatting in the tiled court as they swayed in rhythm to their chanting of the Koran, proved very attractive to the tourist. He also visited a Moslem Mosque, Al-Azhar, where the entire American company were forced to don commodious yellow shoes, as the feet of infidels are not permitted to desecrate the Mohammedan floors.
