 larger scale next fail- and winter. 



Mrs. Wm. Plunili, who has been very 

 ill. is now out of danger. 



The announcement last week a,s to a 

 Iwwling tournament during the conven- 

 tion was premature. It seems the only 

 evening the alleys at Flatbu.sh are at 

 liberty is on Tliinsday evening, on which 

 occasion Uie important business meet- 

 ing of the convention occurs. But Brook- 

 lyn is full of grand alleys, many of them 

 in and near the Germania Club House, 

 and lovers of the amusement will have 

 ample time and op]><irtunity to indulge 

 in it while in the city, and doubtless 

 many impromptu matches will be en- 

 joyed. J. Au.sTix Shaw. 



Hastings, Mich. — J. X. Burroughs 

 reports Christmas trade as never l>etter. 

 Everything sold apd more could have 

 been disposed of had the stock l)oen on 

 hand. Carnations sell quickly at prices 

 twice as high as those of last winter, 

 which evens up the high price of coal. 



Mobile, AtA. — Tlie business of the 

 late C. M. Eavier will Iw continued by 

 his two sons, Louis and Ficderiek. They 

 are both energetic, wide awake young 

 men and will no doubt conduct the busi- 

 ness on the same high iirinciplcs that 

 their father did. 



HoxESDALE Pa. — E. C. Boss, formerly 

 foreman for I. (i. JIarvin, Wilkesbarre, 

 has purchased the greenhouses of Wm. .T. 

 Scheissler here, and will continue the 

 busine.ss.
