OBITUARY. 



Julius Koenig, Sr. 



Julius Koenig, Sr., died on Satur- 

 day, April 22, at his home in St. Louis. 

 This will be sad news to all florists 

 who knew this good old man, as a 

 more kind-hearted man never lived 

 than Pap Koenig. He was upright in 

 all his dealings, and his death removes 

 one of the landmarks of our profession 

 who will be greatly missed. Mr. Koe- 

 nig was 70 years old and leaves a 

 widow and seven children, four girls 

 and three boys; of the boys, Julius, Jr., 

 has his own place, and Otto and John 

 will continue the old business left by 

 their father. 



Mr. Koenig was a prominent mem- 

 ber of the St. Louis P^lorists' Chi'j. 



The funeral took place Monday, April 

 24th, at 2 p. m., from the family resi- 

 dence and the club attended in a 

 body. The pallbearers were selected 

 by the family from the club men and 

 were as follows: Chas. Connon, Albert 

 Michel, J. J. Beneke, John W. Kunz, 

 Fred C. Weber, C. A. Kuehn, Carl Bey- 

 er and John Young. 



There were many handsome floral 

 designs, but the one sent by the club 

 was especially attractive, it being a 

 large crescent wreath standing five 

 feet high, with a large standing sheaf 

 of wheat in the center: attached to this 

 was a large sickle of violets. Nearly 

 every florist in the city attended, as 

 Mr. Koenig was everybody's friend.

PHILADELPHIA. 



There is little or no change in the 

 market. Supply exceeds demand and 

 the fakirs are out in force. 



There was quite a number of deco- 

 rations the past week, J, J. Haber- 

 mehl's Sons alone having three large 

 ones. 



C. Hermann, Frederick, Md., was a 

 recent visitor. 



Herman Resert had his wagon de- 

 molished while standing in front of his 

 store by a team running away and 

 running into it. Oscar Reider, who 

 was in the wagon at the lime, was 

 thrown out. receiving severe injuries 

 about the head.
