Not Yet Too Late

rOrtiand oregonian: The joke reeled out
OF the stage entrance and fell prone across

was Just then lowering gently down the
'Alas!" it muttered, when the fresh air
mad revived it somewhat, 81 am too old

we were shocked at this astounding news,

Sneer up old fellow!" we said, sooth-
written"
AT this the joke jumped up excitedly.
and was soon on its way to the railroad
once, to inquire the price Of a ticket to
New York.
Omaha daily bee., 1902-03-16

professional beggars to the requests OF
churches and charitable organizations seek
ing subscriptions. 1t may be noted that
every appeal for aid which bears the slight
est evidence Of possible worthiness is
turned over to SOM charitable organiza-
ton in the community from which it has
emanated. Great quantities of anonymous
letters are received and a surprisingly large
number of appeals comes from persons who
seek to enlist the aid of the president in
paying off mortgages. Finally there are
the threatening and "crank" letters OF vari-
GUS kinds and the number of ~communica-
lions of this kind received is simply
astounding. Comparatively but a small por-
tion Of them, however, are deemed of suf-
fcient Importance to warrant investigation
by the secret service.
Many of the letters addressed to the
president are induced by newspaper conf
ment. A striking evidence of this was af-
Il rded recently when an item went the
rounds Of the press to the effect that the
White House was infested with rats. No
sooner had publicity been given the re-

stead of wine in the christening and others
suggested that the baptism be made with
flowers.
The president, Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss
Alice have all three come in for most gen.
erous attention on the part Of merchants
and manufacturers seeking the endorsement
of articles of various kinds. Mrs. Roose-
welt receives proffers of sufficient eatables
to stock a grocery store and both women
are deluged with the wares of soap makers
and manufacturers of toilet preparations,
many of whom plead for endorsements.
Any gifts which are received at the White
House with a request for endorsement are
Immediately returned. 1t will doubtless
surprise many persons to learn that threat
ening and denunciatory letters are sent to
the women of the presidential household as
well as to the chief executive. Thus Miss
Roosevelts participation in the christening
of the emperor's yacht has brought forth not
a few rabid expressions from cranks who
are agitated by anything touching even re-
motely monarchical Institutions.
Executive Scrap Book.
One member of what might be termed the
correspondence bureau at the White House
devotes his time to clipping the marked
articles relative to the president and to
FASTING these extracts in large scrapbooks.
President Roosevelt is unlike his predeces-
sor in his methods Of keeping in touch with
public opinion. The late President McKin-
ley was wont to order the submission to
MIN OF every publication Of any prominence
which commented on topics bearing upon
national policy. President Roosevelt does
not do this, but he is a great newspaper
reader and thus keeps pretty closely in
touch with affairs generally.
The stationery used at the White House
Is white and bears inscriptions in purple.
When President Roosevelt took I'D the reins
or government all the old stationery was
discarded and a new supply printed in order
TO enable the substitution Of the words
White House for executive mansion as the
omclal designation Of the presidential resi-
uence' Special paper is provided for the
letters which the president signs personally
ana also for the social correspondence of
MIS- Roosevelt and Miss Alice. All en-
Velopes In which are dispatched
cations bearing upon public business bear
the INSCRIPTION White House-Ohcial' and
