Allentown, Pa. — John F. Horn & 

 Bro. had a supply of chrysanthemums 

 this season which were of such fine qual- 

 ity as to attract the attention of the 

 trade in many surrounding places. It is 

 said that a f'hiladolphia, horist offered 

 to buy the entire stock, but could not 

 make his offer tempting enough. 



Worcester, Mass. — When the will of 

 the late Hermann F. A. Lange was filed 

 for probate, it was found that the bulk 

 of his estate, valued at $125,000, had 

 been bequeathed to his two sons, Albert 

 n. and Carl C. Lange, who were also 

 named as executors. The children of the 

 second wife receive $5,000 each. The 

 estate consists of $75,000 in real estate 

 and $50,000 in personal property.
