Andrew Meyer, Jr., on Friday was 

 appointed city forester. Mr. Meyer for 

 the last three years has been superin- 

 tendent of parks. The office pays $2,400 

 per year. The office of superintendent 

 of parks will be filled early this week, 

 and it is said that George Ostertag will 

 succeed Meyer, which would make a 

 good appointment. 



The Florists' Club bowlers were 

 snowed under Monday night by the Fern 

 Glens, both teams rolling big games. 

 Beyer was high man, and was followed 

 by Kuehn, Beneke, Ellison and Schrifer, 

 all rolling over the 500 mark.

Gike Not Good for Florists. 



A tragedy was narrowly averted at 

 the Royal Greenhouse early Easter morn- 

 ing. The employees had been working 

 very late Saturday night filling Easter 

 orders. At 2 o 'clock Sunday morning, 

 on completing their duties, Mr. Stolper 

 prepared a lunch for the men, including 

 cake, which had been purchased during 

 the afternoon. Two of the men, Lloyd 

 and Gatehouse, did not eat of the cake, 

 as they were too tired to eat and they 

 retired on an improvised bed. Messrs. 

 Stolper and Ueberheim had a room in 

 the building, but Albert Senier went to 

 the bathroom before retiring. 



Soon Mr. Stolper was startled by the 

 sound of breaking glass. On riMhing 

 into the room he found Senier con- 

 vulsed in agony. Mr. Stolper had barely 

 time to awakfen the two men and tell 

 them to help Senier when he, too, ex- 

 perienced the same symptoms. In a 

 very few minutes Mr. Ueberheim, Gate- 

 house and Lloyd were aroused through 

 the shouts of Mr. Stolper and went to 

 his assistance. The only persons in a 

 position to act were the men Gatehouse

and Lloyd, who had not eaten of the 

 cake. They immediately telephoned for 

 a doctor, who on arriving some half 

 hour later gave the men a powerful 

 emetic, which had the desired effect, 

 though the sufferers remained in a dazed 

 state all forenoon, especially Senier. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market 



The Easter trade was all that anyone 

 could wish. Everything was sold at good 

 prices and more could have been disposed 

 of. The demand for plants was enwr- 



mous and cut flowers of all kinds were a 

 close second, while the amount of busi- 

 ness done was far greater than at any 

 other Easter. 



The supply on Monday morning wa» 

 so small that it was hardly worth while 

 trying to do any business, but the de- 

 mand was very brisk and has kept up 

 all the week, with good prices. Outdoor 

 bulbous stock is now coming in and 

 prices will gradually drop. 



The carnation growers are getting^ 

 ready for field planting, and if the 

 weather permits will start the first of 

 the week, and will put out about twice 

 the number of plants that were set out 

 last yeajr.
