President Cleveland to Go Down the Bay
Recover His Health.

President Cleveland to Go Down the Bay
Recover His Health.
WASHINGTON, June 14-By the advice
of his physician President Cleveland
has about decided to take a short
outing down the Chesapeake bay.
The attack of the summer com
plant that has kept Mr.. Cleveland
closely confined to his rooms, during the
past few days has yielded to treatment
and with the exception of slight weak
ness he is quite himself again.
1t is thought that four or five days
outing will restore his usual vigorous
health, and so today the president con-
suited with Capt Evans of the light tender
Hubbard, who will accompany him, as
to the availability of the trip of one of
the light tenders. 1t has not yet been
definitely decided as to when they will
leave here, but a decision will be reached
tonight

HER NAME NEVER PRINTED.
Curious III Luck Which for Years Fol-
lowed a Washington Woman.

Curious III Luck Which for Years Fol-
lowed Washington Woman.
1t looks as though society notoriety
is not to be the fate of one Washing
ton woman whose. name for some in
scrutable reason for the last half
dozen years has been omitted from
all published accounts of gatherings
in which she has taken part. An
overmastering curiosity finally
prompted her to institute an investi-
CATION into the matter. She found
then that, so far from the omission hav
ing been intentional on the part of
the correspondents, it arose from the
fact that she was personally unknown
even by sight to them. Having salts
fed herself on this score. the incognit
shortly thereafter ordered her car
riage, and, calling for a friend.
took her for drive. The
little excursion, planned for
pleasure, had most disastrous ter
mination, as the horses, taking fright,
ran away and, getting beyond the
con- troll of the coachman, the vehicle
was overturned and both ladies in
jured, the owner of the carriage quite
seriously. In the midst of her pain
as she was being carried home there
flashed through her mind the thought
that the runaway would be given
space in the papers. Then, as the
turnout was her property, her name
would of necessity figure in the ac-
count The following morning a de-
tailed account of the accident APP
peared in the paper, but by strange
fatality that has for so long ruled her
elimination from print, her name was
not mentioned. That of her compan-
ion was several times repeated in the
article, which wound up by stating
that "a friend who was in the carriage
at the time was also in jured."

ed considerably. and Mr.. Peterson is

died in 1878. Their only child was Miss
Louisa b. Drake, now of Wevbridge.
Mr.. Drake left an estate of the nominal
value of $1,000 to $4,000. BY his will
the daughter was to have the use of
$4,000 during her life, the money then to
go to MIddlebury college; and the re-
mainder of the property was devised to
various missionary societies. The daugh-
ter now lays claim to about $4,000 out of
the estate on the ground that it belonged
to her mothers estate. Hon. ID. G.. Den
isOn and j. ID. DenisOn of Royalton are
the oratriX's lawyers. A. Nj. Abee of
Springfield and G.. A. Davis of Windsor
are counsel for the missionary societies
