dered the old Japanese veteran, Kuroki, 

 whose popularity seems to grow with 

 every day he remains. Quite a number 

 of weddings take place this week, not- 

 withstanding the superstitious avoidance 

 of May for that important purpose. On 

 Monday, Myer has the decoration, at 

 St. Leo's church, for Mrs. Ada Jaffray 

 McVicker and Herman P, Sappe, one of 

 the events of the year. A number of 

 elaborate affairs are featured in the lead- 

 ing dailies, for this week and next, that 

 will call for the best efforts of several of 

 the leading florists of the city. 



An interesting event on Sunday was 

 the placing of a wreath of roses and 

 valley by General Kuroki, on the tomb 

 of General Grant. At one of the lunch- 

 eons given Kuroki, at the Hotel Astor, 

 the table, 12x60 feet, was decorated with 

 American Beauties and smilax laid in 

 quaint Japanese figures and in the form 

 of an ellipse. At one end of the room 

 a low stage wae arranged to, represent a 

 Japanese garden. 



Beed & Keller's latest novelty since 

 their introduction of bamboo screens, 

 etc., is their new letter for florists, in 

 different styles and sizes, in which they 

 are having already an enormous sale. 



August Loeber, of Arthur T. Bodding- 

 ton's force of salesmen, is still ill at the 

 Boston hospital, but is convalescing. H. 

 A. Bunyard has just returned from a 

 week 's care of the invalid. It will be 

 many weeks before Mr. Loeber can hope 

 to resume his duties on the road. Mr. 

 Boddington has just received a large 

 shipment of Cattleya labiata. 



The popular Detroit park commis- 

 sioner, Philip Breitmeyer, was in the city 

 Saturday and Sunday, looking over the 

 parks of New York and Brooklyn and 

 under the protective guidance of Harry 

 Bunyard. 



The error in my last letter, making life 

 membership in the New York yiorists' 

 Club worth $1,000 instead of .$100, may 

 have been prophetic, for when we have 

 our own home for the club and its 

 rapidly increasing size is considered, 

 $1,000 will seem none too large a sum 

 for the honor of perpetuity in this * ' hall 

 of fame." 



A. J. Guttman has been ill and con- 

 fined to his home for several days .during 

 last week.

 tainly putting up its own monuments. 



John P. Scherer, of Union Hill, has 

 opened a New York branch at 468 Sixth 

 avenue, where he has a fine stock of 

 green goods of all kinds constantly on 

 hand. 



A new florists' supply house has been, 

 opened at 48 West Twenty-ninth street 

 by B. Bosens, the whole house being 

 utilized for manufacture and storage. 

 Mr. Bosens has represented some of the
