Whipped Boy Leaves.

from home and the police were asked
today to find him.
Willie is 16 years old and feet
10 inches in height. In spite of his
size, his father is of the opinion that
he is not too big to be whipped.
Therefore, when Willie reported
last Sunday that he had lost his po-

Willie made no resistance to his
father while the rod was being laid
across his smarting shoulders, but on

Like many fathers, he had imagined
that his boy was IA sort of family
property, to be scolded and hammered
at will.
The fact that boy of 16 is pos
sessed of self-respect seems not to
have occurred to the old gentleman.
AS If the disgrace of having lost
his job were not enough. the father
added to it tenfold by an old fashion

conception of what parental affection
should be, and as result the police
are today looking for the runaway

SENATOR GORMAN RETURNS.
Says Tarin Revision, Economy and
Honesty in Public Office VIII he
Democratic Slogan.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
Senator A. P. German of Maryland,
whose name has been canvassed as
| that of a possible Democratic nominee
for President next year, arrived in
Manhattan from a European trip yes
terday. He was accompanied by Mrs.
German. They went abroad on May
16.
The Senator, when seen on the Amer
lean Line dock, was willing enough to
talk of his trip abroad, what he had
seen and what he had heard, but he
fought shy of discussing politics. He
went to the Fifth Avenue Hotel for
the night and to-day will leave for
home. Later he will visit Saratoga
Springs.
My trip over" he said, was for a
rest and l have been getting 1t. have
just been loafing, seeing the sights and
studying other people. We took in
many of the cities of the old world and
had a very good time. / did not do
any autcmobiling. Not for me-"
I'VE visited England, Belgium,
France, Holland and Switzerland. 1
did not attend any public functions
and the only banquet at which l was a
guest was that given by the Lord
Mayor of London to Admiral Cotton
and the visiting squadron"
Mr.. German was asked whether he
had ever considered the possibility of
being the Democratic candidate for
President next year. To this he re-
piled:
Il am not and have not been con-
sidering any individual for office and
this includes rnUGn1f 10 for TX
to think of men, but to be guided by
the best good of the party
He added that another reason for not
thinking of the subject now was that
the convention date was almost a year
off.
TTe was asked whether he would sup
port Mr.. Cleveland. as it had been said
that they quarreled. His reply came
quickly: I'VE never quarreled; we
only differed"
do you consider that the attitude of
President Roosevelt on the negro ques-
tion will add to the chances OF success
| for the Democratic party?'
THE negro question Is not a polti-
| cal one. 1t is a heavier one than a
matter of politics"
will it make a more solid South?"
The South is solid enough"
What about financial legislation"
Il don't know what to think about
the question. 1 understand that the
banks are against some of the plans
suggested. We cannot do any thing
this year and beside, it is up to the
Republicans to frame legislation now"
win the postoffice frauds hurt the
Republican party?"
That all depends on the memory OF
the people. Naturally the Democrats
will use the frauds for campaign pur-
poses"
What, in your opinion, will be the
issues of the coming campaign"
Tariff revision, economy and hon
esty in public office"
Then the Senator asked to be ex-
cused, saying that he knew very lit
tie of politics as he had been away
some time.
