Roosevelt has sent to that mon
arch a personal message of con-

This is in return for a similar

changing congratulatOry messages
of this kind was begun many years
ago and is faithfully observed by
most of the European rulers.

compliment was always reciprocal

ROOSEVELT CARVES
HIS own TURKEY
How the Presidents Family VIII Enjoy the Day.
Big GohkIer Sent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-This is
going to be a jolly Thanksgiving
in the renovated White House. All
of the presidents children. includ-
ing young Theodoree, are at home
and they are bound to have a romp,
in which their father and mother
will join.
1t will be holiday in every sense
of the word. The clerks and secre-
taries will not report for duty and
all official engagements will be post
poned until the following day. In
the morning the president and his
family will go to church and in the
afternoon they will receive some
visitors in social way. Dinner
will be at p. m. and three or four
friends will be invited to share it.
Mr.. Roosevelt will carve his own
bronze Rhode Island bird, weigh
ing nearly 50 pounds and of the
finest breed. Each year at Thanks
giving time the noblest gObbler in
all that little state is sent to the
president of the United States, be.
ing selected with utmost care by
an old gentleman named Horace
Vose of Westerly. who for more
than a quarter of a century has
taken pride in making this annual
contribution to the table of the
White House.
Mr.. Vose is a sort of likeness of
David Harum in real life. He does
not raise poultry himself, but is a
dealer in fowls and horses on a
wholesale scale.
In response to his gift Mr.. Vose
will receive from Secretary Cortel-
you a pleasant little note of accept
ance, inscribed In neat typescript
on the note paper of the executive
mansion. Mr.. Vose has a number
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1902-11-26

of such letters, one for every year
since 1873, which he has carefully
preserved.
In 1873 Mr.. Vose sent his first
Thanksgiving turkey to the White
House, addressed to President
Grant. 1t was a magnificent bird,
tipping the scales at 32 pounds after
being dressed.
OF course, anybody who wishes
to do so may send a turkey to the
president, and the reasonable ex-
pectation is that it will not be re-
fused. While gifts of substantial
value offered to the chief executive
or to any member of his family are
invariably declined. such things as
choice edibles or drinkables or even
smokables are accepted as a rule 1t
is always the policy of the occu-
pant of the White House in such
matters to be courteous, while
avoiding embarrassing obligations.
In return for the contribution of
turkey the sender is sure to re-
ceive pleasant word of thanks
with Mr.. Cortelyou's signature. Or
dinarily from half a dozen to twenty
gobblers are received at the White
House every Thanksgiving and
likewise at Christmastide, and this
year has proved no exception to the
rule.
The giver of such a fowl can by
no means take it for granted that
his own bird will appear on the
presidential table. There would not
even be room for them all in the
great two-story oaken ice chest in
the basement, which holds the fam
lily supply of provisions. On the
other hand, there is no danger of
their going to waste, inasmuch as
they are distributed among the
clerks employed in the establish

Brown Wants Damages
for Injuries.

James Brown enters suit against

pany for $4,000 damages. The case
will be heard before the superior
court Friday morning.
Mr.. Brown was, according to his
statement, a passenger on train No.
1879, which left Milan in the evening
of August %, 1902. According to
the press reports the train, while
averaging a speed of 40 miles per
hour, collided with a freight train
headed in the same direction, but
standing at station known as Spo-
kane Falls & Northern Junction and
reported to have been without the
protection OF a flagman. The pas
senger train struck the freight
train with terrific force, causing
much damage. Mr.. Brown alleges
that he was badly injured. In fact,
it is asserted that it is impossible
for him to again perform manual
labor.

substantiated against anyone in his
employ. He now owns property in
this city worth 100000 at least, on

action is taken against him, similar
action will have to be taken
against every other house in town.
