Lieutenant Baker OF the Seventh
Infantry was drilling his company on
the parade ground one day when Le
noticed Harrington. "A private and an
old soldier, was very drunk. The
culprit was one OF those men

the lieutenant. He knew what was
the matter with his man and what
would be the best thing to do with
him. After the corporal and private
had gone the drill was resumed with
the rest OF the company. When the
hour set apart for the exercise was
done, the officer went around back OF
the quarters TO look after Harrington,
and found him sitting down on the
walk. He could not drill and the
corporal knew enough TO let him cit
there instead Of abusing him. But as
soon as the lieutenant came In sight
the private arose and stood at ''itten-

he had better do with him.

Ferry,s Seed Annual.

Sir Phillip Miller, the great English
horticui turist, writing in 174O. says T:
" The bes, method to have cabbages
good is 10 procure fresh seed from
abroad every yesf, for IL is apt TO de-
generate in England in few years"
The above is a simple illustration OF
the fact that the best seeds will rapidly
degenerate under unfavorable circum-
stances. The wise will take heed,
therefore, aud buy their seeds Of ID.
NJ. Ferry & Co.. Detroit, Michigan,
whose world wide reputation as the
best and most reliable, as we'll as the
most extensive seed.growers and deal
ers, is due to the fact that they take
advantage Of every circumstance OF
climate. soil, methods Of culture, selec-
tion Of seed plants, ETC., TO procure the
best possible seeds and keep them up
TO that high standard.

Has Not Resigned

II was reported yesterday that May
or Crutehdeld had resigned, but such
Was not the case. The question OF his
eligibility has been discussed Of late,
some believing he could not hold the
Office OF mayor OF the town and cOllec-
tor Tor the district, the latter being a
national office. The preponderance of
opinion is that this ground Is not we'll
taken and hence the probabilities are
against his resigning. While the Office
OF mayor lacks much OF being a desir-
able one, Mr.. Crutch6eld's friends feel
that having accepted the position he
should, ifthere Is no legal lmpediment,
continue to exercise the duties which
it requires.
