I eon ordered to move to Chlcniro Apill
1. This time It is the aiullttr.2 department
o.'. thn trensury.
One man, Kowanl A. Notthup. head of
this department and who has been with
thn nurlliiKton thirty years, haa dci-larrd I
himself, handed In his resignation and
lefused to Join In the exodus. The resit?-
ration has none to Chlcauo and Is ct
fretlve April 1.
Mr. Xorthup Is a veteran In the ru I
load service. Kor fifteen yearn he was
with the Delaware &. lludun lt!ve. road
as acent at Saratoca SprliiKs, N v ,
and elsewhere on the system. In ISSJ
he came to Nebraska and soon afterward
entered the 'Burllnnton service. He be-i-anie
tax agent, was promoted to chief
clerk In the auditor's office and ten
years ago was appointed assistant auditor
of the treasury department.
January 1 Mr. Northup was called to
Chicago and at the general offices there
informed that the auditing department of
tho treasury department was to he
moved from Omaha to Chicago about
Apill 1. lie was told that If he desired
to move he would retain his old position
and at the same salary- Mr. Novthup
asked time to give the matter considera
tion and came home. A few days later
ho received another letter from tho Chi
cago offices, asking him to give a de
cision, as It was certain that tho office
was to be moved to Chicago.
'Will It mini n In Omnhn.
Mr. Northup asked and secured more
time, but now he has decided that he
will not go and has so notified the Hill
people. He will remain In Omaha, but
will spend a few weeks visiting his old
Xew England home.
The removal of tho auditing department
of the trcausry department to Chicago
wan not originally contemplated In the
moving of tho general auditing depart
ment. It comes as an additional order
and while it does not mean the loss of
any large number of people, It does
mean the removal of a chief clerk and
two clerks and their families.' At the
same time it indicates the plans that
the Hill people have adopted and intend
to follow with reference to Injuring
Omaha.
At Burlington headquarters, while the
official order has not materialized, It Is
Bald that before the end of the present
year the entire treasury department will
bo taken away and located In Chicago.
It 1h said that It Nvas the intention to
make the change April 1, but that the
protest raised when it was decided to
take the auditing department awny de
layed action with retecuce to lho treas
ury change.
Even now the scope of the depaitmcnt
has been materially curtailed. Heretofore
all accounts were vouchered here and
all payrolls made and passcdat the local
offices., Nojv all, of this work id' done In
Chicago and even the pay checks are Bent
here for delivery. u

Leading Hostelries
It cniihot bo said that celebrities do not
patronize the hotels in Omaha, for thU
very day Benjamin Krunkltn Is stopping
at the Hotel Home. Not the Ben that ate
tho loaf of bread on the streets of Phila
delphia, but n traveling salesman whose
business It Is to talk tho merits ot his
goods rather than carry a loaf of bread
down a metropolitan- street In order , to
get his name In history.
Two days ago Abraham Lincoln checked
out of the same hotel. Not the Abo that
split logs and Incidentally struck th"
shacklcH from' the. ankles of the 4.(m0.0iK)
of human In chains, but rather a drum
mer who shakes tho shekels out ot th
pockets of lila customers. Then, too. the.
feamo hotel ban reserved n room for
another ot Its regular customers who is
to be in In a few ,'days. This Is no less
a celebrity than John Qulncy Adams. No.
not tho John tJ. who filled his father's
presidential chair after three other presi
dents had warmed It but another trav.
ellng salesman who fills no chairs except
the big luxurious chairs In the lobbies of
hotels.
No, thero is nothing In a name, and yot
this modern Abo Lincoln Is a tall augula--follow
Just llko tho fellow that rtpiW
tho' Illinois rails asunder In the early
days; and tho modern Ben franklin lu a
man of a Himg rotudlty of person much
after tho fashion of tho man who had his
knuckles tickled by the end of a klfn
J string,' thereby fastening street car cttln-

I other monstrosities upon us.

Old Ac.
Old age ai It comes In the orderly proc
ess of nature Is a beautiful and majestic,
thing. It stands for experience, know!
cdse. wisdom, counsel. That is ojd r.g
as It should be, but old age as it often is
means poor djgestlon, torpid bowels, a
kluggleh liver and a genera! feeling of III
health, despondency and misery. Thin In
almost every Instance Is wholly unneces
sary. Ono of Chamberlain's Tablets token
Immediately after supper will Improve the
digestion, tone up the liver and regulate
the bowels. That feeling of despttidency
will give way to one of hope aud good
cheer. For sale by all dealers. Adver
