PORTLAND NOTES. 



[Continued from page 98.] 

 Forty-ninth and Belmont streets. 

 C. Tonseth handles the downtown store. 



The high wind accompanying the 

 thunder shower March 19 did some dam- 

 age to Sam Roake 's home at Clackamas, 

 but did not damage the Rahn & Herbert 

 greenhouses. 



The issuance of a marriage license to 

 F. V. Sanders and Mary E. Bodman 

 confirmed the suspicions of the crew at 

 the Clarke Bros, store, that "Felty" 

 Sanders, one of their number, intended 

 to get married. "Felty" denies the 

 charge and says appearances are decep- 

 tive. 



W. S. Van Doren, a florist of Post 

 Falls, Idaho, visited Portland last week. 

 He says business in his location has im- 

 proved since the first of the year. He 

 makes a specialty of roses in his green- 

 house range. 



The funeral of Geo. W. Bates, held 

 March 23, was the occasion for the 

 most elaborate display of floral offer- 

 ings seen in Portland for some time. 

 Nearly every downtown store had or- 

 ders for it, but the most of the larger 

 Sieces were made by Clarke Bros, and 

 lartin & Forbes. Orchids, valley, calla 

 and Easter lilies, adiantum, violets and 

 sweet peas were used so extensively 

 that the market was cleared of them. 

 Hundreds of roses, tulips and hyacinths 

 also were used. A casket cover of val- 

 ley, orchids and violets, with adiantum 

 and plumosus, was one of the pieces 

 from Clarke Bros. 



Julius Broetje brought in some 

 branches of Japanese cherry in bloom 

 last week. They were seen at Max 

 Smith 's store. 



Some splendid cinerarias are shown. 

 Some of the best ones come from Wil- 

 liam Hoffmann. 



E. R. Chappell reports business as 

 being good at his store in the Broad- 

 way building. 



Niklas & Son last week displayed 

 some good single-bloom hydrangeas. 



S. C. Shearer, of the Erie Green- 

 houses, says he met with no loss from 

 the cold weather. His range is new 

 and stood the weight of wind and 

 snow well. S. W. W. 



Madison, Wis. — A Moninger house, 

 25x100 feet, has been completed bv 

 G. W. Smith, of 2023 Sherman avenue.
