 tificate of merit.

 uovelties in chrysanthemums: Mme. Loi- 

 seau Rousseau, E. Newman, yellow; 

 American seedling No. 60, white; Mrs. 

 Rider Haggard, white; Beatrice May,

 orable mention. Dailledouze Bros, ex- 

 hibited a vase of Carnation Afterglow, 

 being awarded honorable mention. 



Prof. George V. Nash held the at- 

 tention ~ of all for an hour by his very 

 interesting lecture, ' ' Water Lilies and 

 Aquatics." The stereopticon views on 

 colored slides were especially beautiful 

 and added immensely to the deUght of 

 the audience. The enthusiastic thanks 

 of the club were tendered Prof. Nash 

 at the close of his address. 



J. B. Nugent and his lieutenants did 

 excellent work, especially in the line of 

 Virginia-cured porcine delicacies that 

 seemed to touch a soft spot in many 

 oorporosities. William Tricker, of Ar- 

 lington, N. J., and F. Lautenschlager, 

 of Chicago, were visitors. 



After adjournment AVill Wordell, of 



Riekards Bros., turned entertainer. The 

 ladies will be invited to attend the No- 

 vember meeting.

 the Oceanic. His consciousness that the

 last week on his visit to Ghent, where 



he found J. D. Eisele, of Dreer's, to 

 welcome him. Mr. McConnell visited 

 many European countries while away, but 

 found his old home on the Isle of Man 

 the most interesting spot. 



J. Von der Linden, of Rhinebeck, was

 ists remember with delight.
