.James McGJlvray, the well known su- 

 perintendent of Eastlake park, .January 

 12, was married to Miss Maud Davis, 

 one of Scotland's sweetest singers, bet- 

 ter known as Beatrice Maud. The 

 lovely I^os Angeles climate was in part 

 to blame, but the languishing James 

 said that was not the only reason for 

 Miss Davis's journey from lionny Scot- 

 land. Desjiite tlie attentions of a cor- 

 don of police and a detective squad 

 around tlio jiark for two months, James 

 got away at lunch time .January 12 and 

 the next time he was seen was at 151 

 South Hancock street, in full enjoyment

The eol.l weather of last week short- 

 ened the supply of nearlv all kinds of 

 'lowers, with the result that stock is 

 scarcer and prices higher than usual at 

 yiis ti,„e of the year. The coldest dav 

 in tour years killed the remainder of

ship for a week or two. The rose cut 

 is short. The few growers who have a 

 good cut are making more money on 

 roses than ever before during January. 

 Carnations are less plentiful and prices 

 have stiffened. 



Bulbous stock also is held back by 

 the cold, but a few warm days will 

 bring out heavy supplies of daffodils, 

 narcissi, tulips, hyacinths, etc. Free- 

 sias are more plentiful and the offer- 

 ings clean up quickly. Now, when prac- 

 tically everything else is scarce, orchids 

 are plentiful. They were short for a 

 long time, but there are enough now for 

 all the stores, ^lany are being used in

 brisk. In potted plants the principal 

 offerings are azaleas and primroses; 

 both are having a good call. Acacias 

 are earlier tliau usual, several of the 

 downtown stores having had a nice sup- 

 ply for several days. Many pussy wil- 

 lows are used.
