In the first place. 1t must be remem-

profits which both railroads and Indus

cheap money. which. combined with hone

TAFT NUMBER 26.

William Howard Taft will be the
twenty-sixth president OF the United
States. and not the twenty-seventh, as
has been supposed i'm some quarters
The thirty-f1rst presidential term will
begin on the 4th of next March. when
Mr.. Taft takes the oath.
The mlx-up has occurred over the
record of Grover Cleveland. The fact
that Clevelands terms were not con-
secutive has caused him TO be referred
to rather generally as both the
twenty-second and the twenty-fourth
president. That his terms came
apart and not together has caused
him TO be made an exception TO the
general rule None of the popular
historians has presumed TO call
Washington the first and also the Sec
ond president. Adams is always
called No. , The first and only
break In the logical sequence occurs
in the case of Cleveland. But if the
traditional personal order be adhered
to. Cleveland stands as the twenty
second president and can stand as
nothing else. He did not change his
personality when he succeeded Har

kenzie had reached San Reno. The
prince, evidently suspecting the worst,

and made an effort to direct the con.
versation in another direction, but
Frederick insisted. 81 am a soldier
he said, "and can look death in the
eye. ask you now plainly, to the
point, Is my complaint cancer?''
Schroeder could hardly contain himself,
and years after the scene when he re.
called it he spoke Of it as the most
painful in his life. he conducted the
crown prince to chair and asked him
to be seated. Then he said, "Your i'm.

that 1t may develop into carcinoma,

A snobbish young man and his sister
after their return home from an even

quite unaware that their sensible old
uncle was lying awake in his chamber
and could hear every word from where
they stood in the corridor.
"Why, even the Grinders were there,

say not very honest one either. Now
