Depew remarks on cake walk link to turkey trot
Palm Beach dispatch to the New York World reports Chauncey M. Depew addressing 1,500 people at the Poinciana cake walk. He muses that the turkey trot may have evolved from the cake walk or would have existed anyway, citing a dancing master who called the trot the only natural dance. He adds that if not natural, it is close to nature.

Ancestry of U S Presidents Claims German and French Gaps
The article argues that despite large German and French immigrant populations, no President or Vice President has had direct German or French paternal ancestry. It tallies origins of past presidents and vice presidents, highlighting England and Scotland as dominant, with limited representation from Wales and Holland, and notes the paradox of close European ties yet no French or German executive lineage.
