Lenox shining lights, Traendly, Bun- 

 yard, and those two nabobs of the west, 

 celebrated things prospective at a ban- 

 quet October 18 that must have been a 

 stunner. ^ 



W. Gwillin, of the Hubert Bulb Co., 

 Portsmouth, Va., and A. E. Covell, 

 Hampton Meadows, R. I., were in the 

 city on Wednesday. 



Mr. Eose, formerly judge in the city 

 courts at Montclair, N. J., was reported 

 on Saturday very ill with pneumonia. 



Mr. Bonnot, of Bonnot & Blake, 

 Brooklyn, was ill last week with rheu- 

 matism and unable to leave his room. 

 He was improving on Saturday. This 

 firm has just added a fine horse and 

 wagon to its other conveniences. Mr. 

 Blake, Sr., of Rochester, was in Brook- 

 lyn last week visiting his son. 



Mrs. Geller, wife of Sigraund Geller, 

 of the Geller Supply Co., presented her 

 husband on ThuTsdky last with a hand- 

 some girl baby. 



The auction sales continue at Elliott's 

 every Tuesday and Friday. It seems 

 harder than usual to awaken interest 

 this fall. The firm lost a truck at their 

 stables on Fourth street bv a fire, but 



managed to save the horses. The big 

 tunnel of the Delaware & Hudson is 

 undermining so widely on Fulton and 

 Cortlandt streets that the buildings on 

 either side have had to be braced and 

 the cellars occupied by the company. 

 Mr. Elliott, with an eye to business, 

 secured a fee for the use of his under- 

 ground holdings which makes the rent 

 for a time look easy. Peter Henderson 's 

 basement also is occupied. 



The park board has received bids for 

 a large greenhouse to be erected at One 

 Hundred and Fifth street and Central 

 park, adjoining the present range. It 

 will consist of a main building with five 

 wings, and the cost will be over $30,000. 



Business has been brisk at the Cut 

 Flower Exchange in the Coogan building 

 of late. Six o'clock every morning finds 

 the big room crowded, and the rush for 

 flowers has enabled the growers to go 

 home early with bulging pockets. The 

 old standbys. Will Siebrecht, Frank Mil- 

 lang. Bonnet Bros, and Mr. Smith, are 

 on deck here from six to six all the year 

 round. 



Perkins & Sclmman, on the ground 

 floor of the Coogan building, have their 



ice-box completed and are building an 

 elevated oflBee 7x23 which will add much 

 to their facilities. It is a fine stand and 

 ought to pay well. The only other 

 wholesale store in the building, on the 

 street elevation, is that of B. S. Slinn, 

 Jr., the violet distributor. 



E. C. Matthews, Woodside, L. I., is 

 critically ill, the result of four opera- 

 tions for an affection of the throat. 



Perkins & Schuman 's removal from 

 Twenty-eighth street enables George Cot- 

 sonas & Co. to utilize their whole store, 

 and the room was greatly needed. 

 Broker Hart maintains his oflSce with 

 the firm. In addition to this store, Mr. 

 Cotsonas has a large extra cellar for 

 storage purposes. 



It is rumored that the Cut Flower Co. 

 and Ernst Asmus & Son will each short- 

 ly contribute an addition to the ranks 

 of the benedicts. 



Myer, on Madison avenue, has com- 

 pleted the refurnishing and painting of 

 his handsome store and is making beau- 

 tiful window display.s, changing them 

 daily, a feature that has proved very 

 attractive. One day 100 sprays of 

 oncidiums alone were used, and the
