Riesseti Floral Co. will again this 

 year have charge of the decorations 

 for the great Veiled Prophets' Ball 

 which will take place in the big hall 

 at Merchants' Exchange, Tuesday, Oc- 

 tober 2. 



Ellison & Tesson have opened their 

 "West End store on Olive street for the 

 season. 



George 'Walbart is now in his new 

 store which is a grand place and an 

 ornament to the neighborhood. George 

 expects a great rush of business this 

 fall and winter. 



Mary Ostertag is also making a few 

 good improvements at her place on 

 Grand avenue. 



Mrs. M. M. Ayei-s has returned from 

 her eastern trip much improved in 

 health, also Miss Newman, who spent 

 the greater part of the summer in 

 Boston, her old home, 



Fred Weber's place looks well. The 

 house is well filled with the choicest 

 palms of all kinds and Fred is ready 

 for a good winter's business. 



Meeting of Exhibition Committee. 



The exhibition committee held a 

 meeting last Friday at Fred Weber's 

 store in order to decide on the ques- 

 tion of the hall. It was settled that 

 the show will be held in the Exposi- 

 tion building, and the prospects are 

 good for a successful show. Our new 

 special prizes are coming in every day. 

 The dates of the show are November 

 14, 15, 16, 1900, 



Club Meeting. 



The club meeting will Ije held on 

 Thursday, October 11. at 3 o'clock. 

 Essays will be read by Emil Schray 

 and Frank Fillmore, which no doubt 

 will be able papers, as both the gen- 

 tlemen have the requirements to make 

 them so. The members should make 

 it their business to be present as they 

 will hear something that will be of 

 some benefit to them. President Guy 

 and the Belleville craft promises to 

 be out in full force and so will the 

 Kirkwood boys. 



Bawling. 



The bowling club rolled six games Monday 

 night. The evening was a r.ttle too warm 

 for bowling and only four members were in 

 attendance. Charlie Kuehn's rolling was not 

 up to his standard owing to a bad finger on 

 his bowling hand. The scores were as follows:

OCEANIC, N. J. 



Meeting of the Monmouth Co. Hort. Society. 



The meeting of the above society on 

 Sept, 21st, although not so well at- 

 tended as usual, was a lively one. An 

 application to this society for a pri- 

 vate gardener for Washington, D. C. 

 was read; also a communication from 

 Buffalo. 



The exhibition committee reported 

 that the town hall could not be se- 



cured on account of the election and 

 other matters, so the society decided 

 to have a display of chrysanthemums, 

 roses, and carnations at their meet- 

 ing-room, Kedmen's Hall, Oceanic, 

 Nov. 9th, free to the public. It was 

 also decided that this society shall 

 have an exhibit at the Pan-American 

 Exposition. B.
