BALTIMORE. 



The Marlcet. 



Weather conditions last week were 

 against business. Last Saturday at 4 

 o'clock in the morning the thermometer 

 registered 40 degrees. A genial sun 

 sent it to 70 degrees at 1 o'clock in 

 the afternoon. The air continued balmy 

 until 5 o'clock, when a change oc- 

 curred. The wind began traveling twen- 

 ty-six miles an hour, and within an hour 

 the mercury dropped from 67 degrees to 

 59 degrees; meanwhile it rained at in- 

 tervals. About 7 o'clock the wind 

 veered west and it cleared off nicely, but 

 much colder. 



The leather conditions made cut flow- 

 ers scarce, and any kind of a bloom was 

 salable. A considerable amount of wed- 

 ding work was done, and a few dinners 

 were given. Chrysanthemums are com- 

 ing more heavily, but seem to be more in 

 demand than in former years. 



Carnations are the only flowers that 

 are lacking in supply. Golden Gate is 

 more plentiful now, and American Beau- 

 ties are holding their own. Mignonette 

 is flowering, and will be on the market 

 shortly. Cosmos is still plentiful and a 

 few dahlias are to be seen, selling at fair 

 prices, while violets are coming in more 

 abundantly. 



There is a great demand for ferns. 

 The retail windows »haw» „ dedorations 

 mostly of ferns and mums, which make* 

 a desirable change. 



Various Notes. 



A general transfer of the various 

 superintendents of the city parks went 

 into effect October 24. The men affected 

 and their new duties are: Superintend- 

 ent N. F. Flitton, to Patterson park, 

 transferred from Clifton park; Superin- 

 tendent Boone, to Clifton park, from 

 Druid Hill park; Superintendent C. L. 

 Seybold, to Carroll park, from Patterson 

 park; Superintendent Wessels, to Druid 

 Hill park from Riverside park. 



The only reason given by the park 

 board for the change was the stereo- 

 typed one, the good of the service. 



Charles Cook, on North Mosher street, 

 is having trouble with his boiler ana 

 pipes. Mr. Cook is suffering from a 

 sore foot, which may prove to be of a 

 serious nature. 



John Oler, Arlington, cut from fifty- 

 eight sashes 26,000 single violets from 

 October 13, 1905, to March 31, 1906. 



Stoll Bros, are making some fine 

 funeral designs. 



The Gardeners ' Club has its announce- 

 ments concerning the chrysanthemum 

 show, to be held next month, placed in 

 all the florists' stores. 



G. A. Lotze and Miss Alice Taylor, of 

 Glen Burnie, Md., were married in Bal- 

 timore, October 14. The event was ex- 

 pected, but the exact date was not known
