Prof. Carl Oppenheimer describes in
the Tageblatt experiments which have
been made by Prof. Abrahalden of
Berlin in the synthetic preparation of
food. Prof. Abderhalden has succeed
ed in keeping dog alive on food
which he produced synthetically in his
laboratory. He accomplished this not
by creating the actual foods which
animals normally feed on, but by ad-
ministering the chemical constituents
of the food in simpler forms. The
necessary fat was administered in the
form of glycerin and sebacic acid, and
the necessary carbohydrates in the
form of sugar, which can be synthet-
ically made. The production of the
indispensable albumen at first proved
an obstacle, as science is far from
having succeeded in making albumen
synthetically. Prof. Abderhalden, how
ever, worked on the basis of the
known fact that the albumen taken
as food is dissolved during digestion
into it's constituents, and worked up
again into cell albumen. This, he
reasoned, meant that if the cons,itu-
ents of albumen, which can be pro-
duced in the laboratory, were given as
food they would suffice. Experiment
proved this assumption to be true.
The dog flourished. From this Prof.
went further. He gave
another dog, instead of this food,
mixture of acids prepared in his labo-
ratory, and the animal proved to be
we'll nourished. In this way 1t was
proved that everything necessary for
he support of animal life can be syn
.hetically manufactured out Of half
lozen elements.

ROOSEVELT CLAIMS HE
is NOT A DRUNK ARD

MARQUETTE, Mich, May 81
Ex-President Roosevelt testified this
morning in his damage suit against
the editor of the Iron Ore. The colo
mel gave almost in detail, list OF
alcoholics he had swallowed during
his life time. He recited with whom
he had tasted drink, and how much
he drank in the past twenty years.
Roosevelt said in part, that he had
never tasted a cocktail or highball in
his life with the exceptions noted.
Never drank whisky of brandy, ex-
cept under the advice of physician.
He disliked both. Don't smoke or
drink beer, as l dislike both. Never
drank red wines. The only wines l
ever drank are white, Madeira, cham
pagne and occasionally glass of
sherry"
The witness said at home he fire.
quently drank Madeira with Poland
water and at public dinners sometime
drank glass or two of champagne.
He rarely drinks mint julips, saying
he drank julips only twice since he
left the White house. During the past
fifteen years he never drank whisky
over six times.
Roosevelt described in detail his
African trip, declaring the expedition
took but one case of champagne
case of whisky and one bottle of
brandy He declared that during the
entire trip he never tasted champagne
or whisky, and drank exactly seven
ounces of brandy, which was pre-
scribed by his physician for fever
He described the places he drank
alcoholics and with whom he drank
during the campaign trip in Ohio last
year, which, excepting a couple of
glasses of champagne the only liquor
consumed was teaspoonful of brandy
in goblet of milk before retiring,
also prescribed by his physician.
In conclusion Roosevelt said: For
the past fifteen years / can give the
details what have drunk. Neither
during these fifteen years or since I
became of age have l ever, under
any circumstances, been even in the
smallest degree under the influence of
liquor"
The colonel declared in twelve years
he drank only one mouthful of beer
at Milwaukee.
Jacob Riis next testified that he
knew Roosevelt intimately and denied
angrily that he ever saw the colonel
intoxicated or heard him curse.
The jury was accepted last night.
