Memphis Commercial Appeal: 1T
is true, that negroes representing black
governments from the south of us, and
bronze and yellow men from other
parts of the globe, have been enter
tanned by presidents, both Republican
ana Democratic, but this does not ex
cuse President Roosevelt's remarkable
transgression of the proprieties. He
has cut himself off socially from the
South No Southern woman with a
proper self-respect would now accept
an invitation to the White House, nor
would President Roosevelt be welcome
to-day in Southern homes. He has not
inhamed the anger OF the Southern
people he has excited their disgust. He
has not exhibited boldness by the coarse
innovation; he has manifested vul-
gar disregard for the feelings of those
who formerly respected and admired
him. Certainly the South repudiates
him. 1t pities his Northern half, and
expatriates with adherence and con-
tempt his Southern half.

Nashville Banner Rep eff the
prominent negro who has thus been
taken into social equality with the
family of the President had been
present at a strictly official dinner,
there might have been less cause for
criticism, but by the innovation
President Roosevelt has made he not
only disregards precedent at the White
House, but apparently purposely defies
and rebukes the racial social distinc-
tion which is so sedulously maintained
in the Southern States, and, indeed,
for the most part, throughout the
whole country. Without going into
discussion of the causes and condi-
tions which have established this social
line of distinction, it is sufficient to
say that it exists and is unalterable
without such revolution of sentiment
as cannot be expected or contemplated
by this generation. Whatever justif
cation may be attempted of the Presi
dents action in this instance, it goes
without the saying that it will tend to
chill the favor with which he is re-
garded in the South and will embar-
rass him in his reputed purpose to
build up his party in this section.

Closing Scenes Of Dumas' Life.

The particulars Of the manner in which
NJ. Alexandra Dumas spent his last day,
given by those who were present at Villa
Champfeur, at Marty, are interesting.
The Improvement which had been noted In
the morning continued the whole day, SO
that the members Of the family felt their
hopes revive. The doctors seem to have
been rather skeptical, but Nine. Dumas
and the daughters Of the celebrated writer
were overjoyed.
The patient was cheerful and smiling.
He even joked, and had, in the morning,
turned everybody out Of the room by an
affectionate rebuke. He said: "This is
really too much. What are you all doing,
sitting about in my room9 It Is really e1-
traordinary. Cannot be left alone In my
own apartmentl My children, you really
take advantage of my good nature"
They were all going out but he called
them back again, smiling, and everybodS
laughed with him. At noon, however, b.
sent them to the dining room for break
fast and asked for cup Of tea for him
self. Ashe had done in the early morning,
he took the cup in both hands and drank
the tea without any difficulty. Nine. Du-
mas trembled with mingled joy and fear;
she dared not believe In what seemed 60

change occurred; the patient suddenly ex-
perienoed two successive nervous tremors,

starch from the cassava root is a most inter-

pany was organized by Mr.. Perkins, prac-
tical starch manufacturer, with capital OF
500, 900. The cassava is very much like the
sweet potato, and is used In the culinary de-
partment in much the same way. The COM
pany pays for the cassava root 50 per ton In
car load lots. The cassava plant grows luXu-
riantly in many of The old orange groves.
Many of the most famous Northern cotton
mills are heavy consumers of this manufac-
turing concern. A few years ago the thought
that starch would be sent ,2OO miles from
Florida to New England TO aid in finishing
and sizing cloth would have seemed wild

Coffee Drinking.
Spartanburg Herald.

Coffee drinking by children was the subject
OF animadversion by DR.. l. n. Love in q re-
cent meeting Of the New York County
Medical Association. He said: The care.
lessness with which parents would permit
even babies to drink coffee is remarkable.
This was often done through a desire TO give
the children warm drink in the morning
The i'll effects OF this practice were frequently
met with by the physician. Such children
early showed poor digestion and irrltability
of the nervous system. He had been sur.
prised to tiud how common this was, even
among the well to do, and how seldom,
physicians gave the matter due consideration.
He was of the opinion that this habit was q
means OF developing In these persons, as
they grew older, desire for something
stronger. The exceptional individual OF
excellent inheritance aud strong physique,
and with a we'll poised nervous system, could
use coffee and tobacco from an early age
without marked detriment, but 1t should
always be borne in mind that these cases
were decided exceptions. The child should
have no stimulant, Just as the tboroug hbred
colt should have no whip, but oats or other
wholesome food.
