PHILADELPHIA- 



The Market. 

 The lenten season has taken its ef- 

 fect at last and business is rather dull 

 as a result; however, this was more or 

 less expected. Light flowers sold very 

 well, there being a number of funerals 

 the past week. Violets have been a 

 glut on the market, the street fakir 

 making a specialty of them. Balls and 

 social events seem to have become a 

 thing of the past and will be likely to 

 remain so for the next four weeks, 

 hence sympathies are in order for the 

 poor florist.

Notes. 



J. Stewart, late with Julius Wolff, 

 Jr., has resumed his old position with 

 Ed. Seidewitz, of Annapolis, Ind. 



Chas. Fox, Sr., did the decorating 

 tPT the wedding of Major Ashbridge's 

 daughter, which took place the past 

 week. It was a large event. Mr. Fox 

 did the decorating at both the house 

 and church. The reception was held 

 at the Stratford Hotel. Mr. Fox reports 

 it as being the largest affair he has 

 had in many years. 



Julius Wolff, Sr., has been very busy 

 the past week with funeral work. He 

 also reports having a number of gar- 

 den orders on file. 



Mr. H. C. Strobell, of the firm of 

 Strobell Bros., Newark, N. J., favored 

 us with a visit. R. 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The greenhouses of the Indianapolis 

 Flower and Plant Co., corner of Thir- 

 ty-fourth street and Central avenue, 

 were seriously damaged by fire the 

 morning of March 6th. The loss is es- 

 timated at $5,000 on plants and $1,000 

 on buildings, the latter being covered 

 by insurance. The fire started in the 

 boiler room in some unknown man- 

 ner. W. J. Hasselman is the principal 

 owner of the concern. The greenhouses 

 will no doubt be rebuilt, though the de- 

 struction of the stock may cause re- 

 building to be deferred for a time.
