STREATOR. ILL. 



W. C. Hill, senior member of the W. 

 C. Hill Floral Co., passed away March 

 11, after an illness of two weeks of can- 

 cer of the stomach. Mr. Hill was born 

 in St. Louis, November 16, 1843. He 

 served in the 20th Illinois during the 

 Civil war and was married March 16, 

 1868, to Miss Emily Tompkins, who sur- 

 vives. Mr. Hill came to Streator in 

 1875 and embarked in the flower busi- 

 ness. In 1884, the Hill Floral Co. was 

 incorporated, since which time the firm 

 has built up a prosperous and growing 

 business, a few years ago moving their 

 plant from South Park street to the 

 west side, where the business has been 

 conducted on a larger scale.

 after displayed in the United States sen- 

 ate chamber. The edict has gone forth 

 that all blossoms shall be barred from 

 those august portals. 



Senator Lodge produced a crumpled 

 piece of paper a few days ago and sent 

 it to the clerk's desk. The clerk read 

 this: 



R^olTed, That until further orders the ser- 

 geant-at-arms Is instructed not to permit flowers 

 to be brought Into the senate chamber. 



When jNIr. Quay returned to the sen- 

 ate after a two-year absence causeu by 

 a deadlock in the Pennsylvania legisla- 

 ture, a good sized section of the senate 

 chamber was taken up with a triumphal 

 floral arch, which caused many senators 

 (who didn't like Quay) to say the prac- 

 tice of giving flowers should be forbitl- 

 den. 



ZANESVILLE, OHIO. 



John D. Imlay is making plans for a 

 new store, which will give him very fine 

 facilities. The present salesroom, a one- 

 story structure on North Fifth street, 

 will be torn down and a three-story brick 

 structure erected in its place. This will 

 be sixty feet deep and back of it will 

 be a show house, connecting with a stor- 

 age shed in the rear. A steam plant will 

 be installed to heat the greenhouse, store 

 and apartments above.
