Quite a flutter of excitement
was created a few days ago by
the announcement in the public
prints that Assistant Commis
sioner Anderson, of the (Jenernl
Land OlHce, had rendeed a decis

who in 1887 declared his inten

Tinted States could legal y initi

below that exalted station of life.

her son's success in life-

is the form of sugar found in
