PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



Jno. Burton is serving on the United 

 States jury, which Is at present hold- 

 ing sittings in the federal building. 



Wm. J. Muth of the Cut Flower Co. 

 reports that his firm is moving their 

 office down to the main floor. Cold 

 storage facilities have been improved 

 by utilizing waste space to the rear. 



Among the cargoes on the Marquette 

 and Abyssinia were large consign- 

 ments of cycas leaves, moss wreaths, 

 raffia, cork bark and other supplies 

 for H. Bayersdorfer & Co. Mr. Bayers- 

 dorfer is at present in Europe and re- 

 ports that he will send on following 

 steamers a fine lot of novelties for 

 the Dayton convention, as well as 

 staples for the fall trade. 



There is talk of a popular reception 

 being tendered to Mr. Hugh Dickson 

 of Belfast by the Florists' Club. The 

 man to whom we owe Liberty, Kil- 

 larney and dozens of other fine roses 

 certainly deserves all the public recog- 

 nition we can give him. 

 . The Waretown Rod and Gun Club, 

 which is composed mostly of Philadel- 

 phia florists, with Jno. Westcott at the 

 head, held its annual opening on the 

 15th, Kith and 17th inst. The first 

 day the company were guests of Com- 

 modore Westcott, who is well known 

 as a good entertainer, and was as 

 usual indefatigable in looking after 

 the comfort of everybody. A pleasing 

 incident, of the proceedings was the 

 presentation to the host of a silver- 

 mounted oak loving cup. After the 

 dinner, to which a large company sat 

 down, speeches were in order, all of 

 them full of good humor and jollity, 

 and the time flew by on lightning 

 wings. To quote Thomson: 



"One well-spent hour 

 In such a tender circumstance for friends 

 Is better than an age of common time." 



Among those who distinguished 

 themselves one way or another were: 

 Richard Lynex, aged 84, and still hale 

 and hearty; Robert Craig, W. B. West- 

 cott, C. H. Eimerman, Jno. H. Dun- 



ham, George Redford. S. S. Pennock, 

 Alfred Hoegerle, David Rust, W. H. 

 Westcott, W. K. Harris. Francis 

 Borelli, A. Y. Hanna, Robert Kift, J. 

 W. Colflesh, G. C. Watson and Tillie 

 the cook. We hear there was some 

 fishing but saw none of it, and all the 

 shooting that came under our obser- 

 vation was immaterial — the only dam- 

 age being a few tin cans well battered 

 and Watson's magazine shot full of 

 holes. G. C. W. 



On the night of June 11 heavy frost 

 damaged much vegetation throughout 

 northern New York state. The 

 ground was slightly frozen in some 

 places. June 12 was the coldest June 

 morning in many years.
