TJntll Theodore Roosevelt became president the White Bouse had a wine : cellar and a dark room in the attic set ' aside ss a storeroom for liquors. He . did sway with them both. But be devoted them to other uses simply because be needed tbe room for bis larger family, which, being so much larger than the average president has hsd, required more accommodation. President Roosevelt has msde the unique record of serving beer to a large company In tbe Wbite House. When Prince Henry of Prussia was In the city a few years ago the presi dent had a feat for him In which casks of beer were tbe cblcf ornamen tal pieces. The White House party did not hold tbe equipment needed to serve tho beer, so tbe president asked a local saloon keeper to send up ten or fifteen dozen steins. Wben Prince Henry drained bis, on tbe bottom of tbe stein were disclosed these words: "Stolen from Ernst Oorstenberg." Tbe thrifty Gerstenberg bed paid such heavy tribute to his stein collect ing patrons that be undertook to stop tbe thieving by having the legend blown In the bottoms.
