PRESIDENT FEELS HURT.
Offended at Being Caricatured as Cir
Gus Ringmaster.

President Roosevelt Is offended at the
flippancy with which his private life Is
treated In certain quarters. He has
long been accustomed to ridicule by
newspapers which failed to appreciate
the strength Of his character, but dealt
entirely with his strenuosity. But 1t
was not unit. he entered the White
House that the sanctlty Of his private
life was invaded TO the extent that he
cannot take Il walk or horseback ride,
have a friend TO luncheon or dinner, or
indulge in ang Of the social amenities
of private life without the fact being
heraded to the world, and usually in
such manner as to place him In a
ridiculous light. An attempt Is being
made wilfully or thoughtlessly, In car
tain quarters 20 create the impression
that the President is conducting q cir
Gus at the White House, of which he Is
the rlngmaster and the officials aud pol
lpclans are the performers
