considerably better than that of the

The British assert that this is prin

quest for complete data as to the con-
tract prices of the shipments involved.
There are about twenty-four cases of
these cotton cargoes. In all Of which
the British government has called for
complete data as to contract prices at

at the point of destination at the time
expected. They refuse. however, to
make any payment at all until docu-

paign was started to clean up the
city before the opening of Went

besides the students will be in

one is requested to polish up
their places of residence so that
the visitors may carry away a
good report of our city's clean

a nuisance even when in full
bloom. No one cares for them

beyond belief. Clean up, please.

was in strong contrast to former
experiences with other chautau-
qua systems and fully appreciat-

ASubject will be a serious one un-

the most finished that Lexington
