on closer relations with the Horticultural 

 Society of New York. Mr. Totty spoke 

 against the sinking of the club's indi- 

 viduality. In addition to Mr. O'Mara, 

 Aiessrs. Allen, Brinkerhoff, Troy, Lager, 

 Atkins, Nielson, Eoehrs, Siebrecht, Pier- 

 son, Turner and Ward are already mem- 

 bers of both organizations. The com- 

 mittee, after a conference, requested the 

 report be referred back to it for further 

 consideration. 



After a recess, during which Messrs. 

 Nugent, Bickards and ^hultz dispensed 

 the luxuries of the season, Robert Simp- 

 son, president of the American Rose So- 

 ^^®ty> gave a stirring address in its be- 

 half. 



Announcement of the death of Victor 

 Dorval was made, and a committee con- 

 sisting of Messrs. Donaldson, Shaw and 

 Stewart appointed to draw up suitable 

 resolutions. 



An interesting dinner discussion re- 

 sulted in a vote authorizing the commit- 

 tee to go ahead with the arrangements, 



the cost fixed at $5, as usual. Messrs. 

 Schultz, Rickards, Marshall, Totty, Sher- 

 idan and O'Mara orated interestingly. 



W. F. Sheridan read the trustees' re- 

 port, showing a balance of $2,601.95 in 

 the treasury. 



The entertainment committee during 

 the last year expended .$300 in its ef- 

 forts to dispense good cheer and enjoy- 

 ment. Mr. O'Mara suggested a reduc- 

 tion to $10 monthly for the canteen. 

 Mr. Simpson spoke in favor of its elim- 

 ination. Mr. Nugent and Mr. Barnett 

 spoke for the house committee and its 

 work, as did Mr. Marshall, and by a vote 

 of twenty-one to fifteen the committee 

 was instructed to proceed as it sees fit, 

 cigars and food hereafter being elimi- 

 nated from the monthly menu. Messrs. 

 Young, Sheridan and Allen were ap- 

 pointed the committee to determine the 

 club's place of meeting after June. 



The committee of awards gave a vote 

 of thanks to William P. Craig for a 

 grand vase of Mrs. Jardine rose and to 



Anton C. Zvolanek for an exhibit of 

 sweet peas, thirty-two varieties being 

 shown. John Lapp, of Maspeth, showed 

 a pink seedling carnation which the com- 

 mittee requests to be exhibited again. 



Interesting addresses were made by 

 Wni. P. Craig, A. Farenwald and S. S. 

 Skidelsky. 



The B. & O. sent an offer of one and 

 one-third fare to the Washington carna- 

 tion convention, January 28 to 30, $7.75 

 round trip. 



The Smoker at Madison. 



The annual smoker of the club at 

 Madison drew well January 8. Over 100 

 enjoyed the uproarious festival. The 

 famous Totty punch, a worthy rival of 

 John Westcott's decoction, was in evi- 

 dence. The society now numbers sev- 

 enty-five. Percy Herbert is president, 

 H. B. Vyse vice-president, E. Reagan 

 secretary and W. Duckham treasurer. 

 Among the guests were James Fraser, 

 of Morristown; Harry Turner, of Castlo
