He was buried by the nuns Of Le.-

Greatness certainly has its draw

adverse criticism. An unknown man

was black in the face without causing
remarks, but with the Duchess Of

WASHINGTON. Especial l-Secretary
Morton has let the contract for the
10, l25, 600 packets Of vegetables seeds,
to be distributed to the public under

reth & Sons, Of Philadelphia, The

tract free Of cost at the department
in Washington ready for mailing.
The contract for 100000 packets Of
flower seeds WAS let to L. L. May &
Co., of st. Paul, Mimi, at half cent
per package.
Under this new method Of buying
seeds and compelling the sellers to

that better quality Of seeds will have
been secured. Senator Proctor, chair
man of the committee on agriculture
in the senate, and Representative
Wadsworth, chairman of the agricul-
ture committee in the house, together
with DR.. Dabney and Secretary Nor
ton constituted the board of awards.
They agreed unanimously that the

which could possibly be made, time Of
delivery, responsibility Of firms and
quality Of seeds all being duly con-
sldered.
