The Inland Printer gives an excellent
definition of an "old fogy" as one who
has done learning thinks no progress
can be made, but works just as he was
taught forty years ago.
''Say, maw," said the boy, "why is that
bottle like a vegetable?n Because it's

it's pa's-nip." And the boy timidly
shrank behind the refrigerator.

TIE THIRD TERM TALK.
What In Said to He MIR. CleveIand's
Position i'm the Matter.

What is Said to He MIR. C1eveInnd's
Position in the Matter.
The talk of third term for President
Cleveland has given rise to a story said to
be well founded, in effect that all such
speculation has no support on the part Of
Mr.. Cleveland himself. 1t is claimed. that
office holders who would like to hold over
and Mr. CIeveland's enemies start and keep
in circula ton rumors to lead to a belief
that the occupant Of the White House
would like to remain there four more years
after his present term expires.
It Is said that Mr. Cleveland has his own
reasons for not having spoken on this SUBJ
iect sooner. Mr.. Cleveland could never go
down in history as having declined a third
term nomination unless he is placed in a
position that would show that he might
have a chance to secure such a nomination.
He accordingly views with satisfaction all
the talk about him for a third term, and
v ouid like to be Endorsed by state and
|. county conventions for the presidency for
another term.
Then, it is said, he proposes to come out
in a letter of declination. giving his rea-
sons that Washington having set the OK
ample in favor of not more than two terms
for President he believes it to be worthy
of his approval.
By this method, it is said. Mr.. Cleveland
hopes to go down in history as man who
pushed away a nomination offered at the
hands of his party for patriotic reasons.

POSSIBLE SUICIDE,
Police Looking for n Coachman Named
Theodore Peters,

Police Looking for n Coachman Named
Theodore Peters.
The police of the second precinct were
notified this afternoon of letter received
by T. NJ. Draney, the livery stable man
on New York avenue. in which the writer
gave the Information that when the letter
was received he would be gone. The letter
was signed ''T. p" and Mr.. Draney thinks
it was written by a coachman named Theo-
dore Peters. In the letter. which was a
lengthy epistle, the writer gave directions
about the disposition of his body.
He wants no money spent on him after
death except enough to defray the ex-
penses of cremating his body.
The man who 1t is suspected wrote the
letter was employed as a coachman by Mr..
C. Il. Havenner. the baker, and he spent
considerable time about Draney's stable.
Last Saturday he was at the stable and
talked with some of the stablemen.
1t is said that some weeks ago he was
advised that he had better save his money
for the future, and his answer was, so 1t is
stated, that he was going to have a good
time. and when 1t was gone he would cut
his throat. None of the men at the stable
knew where Peters has been living during
recent weeks. and the police are now en-
4 avoring to locate him. News Of the re-
ceipt Of the letters was sent to police head
quarters. and the detectives may assist the
precinct officers in the search.

Strange Disappearance of Christian
EndcavOr Delegate.
BOSTON, Mass, July 30.-A most mys-
terious affair connected with the recent
Christian Endeavor convention here has
just come to light. Mrs. E. T. Gardiner
cf Arcadia, Neb., who came here as a dele
gate to the convention, has not yet returned
to her home and husband and child, and
the report Of ner death here Is not sup
ported by the records Of the health de-
partment or by any known facts.
Mrs. Gardiner Is thirty-flve years old.
She had always been appai emily healthy,
and when her husband received from her
letter dated July Is. stating that she was
about to die, he was sounded. Following
that letter came arotLer. signed MIR. J.
Brown of South Boston," who neither Mr..
Gardiner nor any one else knows, stating
that the woman was dead. and that in the
interest Of economy her body would be
buried here. The death registers bear no
record of any such death, and detectives
employed by Mr.. Gardiner have failed to
find a trace Of Mrs. Gardiner, dead or alive
It is feared by 81 me of those interested
in the casa that Mrs. Gardner has been
spirited away 10y thieves, who were at
tracted by the large sum Of money and
valuable jew,lry she carried, while some
secured for dissection purposes.
When Mrs Gardner was in Boston she
did not stay with the rest Of the Nebraska
delegation at the regular headquarters, but
with some friends, who cannot now be
found.

Mrs Hatcher's method of dealing with

A PRIVATE srcp sAvapv

Eject of q Ruling Of Secretary Her.
bert Upon MAs Own Confidential Clerk.
Secretary Herbert has made a ruling to
the effect that private secretaries. even his
own, are subject to the same rules as all
other clerks and employees of the executive
DEPARTMENT. and are not entitled to any
greater privileges IN the matter of leaves
OF absence. The decision Is made to the
great pecuniary loss Of Mr.. Herbert's own
private secretary. Mr.. Louis Harvie Finney.
jr. That bright young man has just re-
turned to the city after a two-months' va
cation, most OF which was spent in adj
the continent, including q visit to the naval
celebration at KEEL. 1t Is understood that
the main object Of Mr.. Ffnney's extensive
tour Of observation was to gather material
for series of lectures on the principal
cities Of Europe.
Heretofore. private secretaries have en-
toyed unusual privileges in the matter Of
leaves. and 1t has generally been accepted
that their time was their own whenever
their chiefs were out of the city. At any
rate. no question has ever been raised
against the private secretary of a cabinet
officer for the time he may have been alb
sent from his desk in excess OF the thirty
days annual leave of absence. to which
he. as well as all other government en-
ployes. is entitled by law. When Mr.. Fin
ney returned to this city. however. he was

The question was raised by Mr.. Stickney.
| the disbursing officer Of the department.
He asked Secretary Herbert If MIR. Finney
was to be paid his salary for the extra
thirty days which he had been absent. and
| the Secretary stated most emphatfcally that
| he was not. Mr.. Finney did not know OF
this action until he reached Washington
yesterday. He was very much astonished
| and could not be made to understand that
it was done by order of the Secretary. In

order, he went to New York post haste last
