every department of the great exposition
will have its relics on view-old records,

every state will contribute.
In the practical sense nothing can be
more interesting than the horticultural, .ag-

Earth and Father Neptune are the sources
of human existence, and it is we'll that to
the field and ocean proper tribute should be
paid at the great anniversary.
The horticultural department OF the e1-
position has received great number OF con-
tributions toward its display. Chief Samuelss
is daily in receipt Of information in regard
to collections of rare plants which are belng
made, many Of which are now on their
way to Chicago. In the exhibition of the
horticultural department Australia will
make fine showing. The commissioners
from the New South Wales are preparing q
fine exhibit of large plants, tree ferns. palms.
ETC., and the first installment is on its way
to Chicago. An officer OF the Sydney bo'
tanic gardens accompanies the shipment to
San Francisco Should this consignment
arrive in good order more will be forwarded
at once. The first consignment of the col
lection of plants from Jamaica has already
arrived in Chicago.

The late Duke of Cambridge was in
the habit of thinking out loud, so to
speak, and there were times when hia
audible expression of opinions was at
least inopportune. 1t is related OF him

service, whenever the rector said. "Let

1t is this landing that we who live four
centuries later inhabitants Of the new world,
that Columbus in all his life never knew,
was new world, are about to celebrate in
the dedicatory ceremonies of the world s

the spirit of discovery will clasp hands with
the spirit of progress, marking at once the
close and beginning of an epoch.
These are in the French phrase, fin de

sense they are. for the tremendous Nine
teenth century is drawing to its tinality
and not long hence will be historic rather
than actual Therefore it IS fitting that the
play should include not only trophies Of
present achievement, but also tangible ex-
hibits Of past endeavor.
And what magnificent period it is to be
commemorated by these preliminary page
ants at Jackson park. No other volume of
mans record so teens with tales OF
toll and success! First the discovery of the
new world; then the exploration; after that
the conquest and settlement; the creation Oh
new states, and finally the vindication o.
the principle of the republic.
These hut barely hint at some OF the
things winch naturally suggest themselves
in connection with the dedicatory ceremon
