The Tlchborne claimant creates a great
sensation wherever he goes in England. At
Liverpool his lodgings were continually sur
rounded by a curious throDg, and when he ap-
peared at the windows great cheer was set

accept boxes. all trades and traffic run him
down, but so far he doesn't seem to let the dis.

is fat and ruddy, and he Is in continual good
humor. There is no restraint placed on his
movements, though he is we'll aware that
private detectives follow him like shadows.

The publishers beg to call the attention Of those
about forming classes In Botany to the known
works by Professor Gray. Having been carefully
revised, they present the latest and most accurate
principles and developments OF the science, and
it Is sufficient Endorsement OF them to state that
they are used In almost every noted College, High
School and Seminary In the country. and are rec.
commended over other series BY nine.tenths OF the
United States.
No author has yet approached Professor Gray in
the rare art Of making purely scientific theories

one simple, concise and yet exhaustive method OF
teaching the various grades OF the study.
