INDIANAPOLIS. 



Loss by HaiL 



A severe hail storm passed over the 

 southern part of this city March 18 about 

 6 p. m., causing great loss in glass and 

 stock to all the florists and gardeners in 

 that section. Henry Bieman lost about 

 900 large lights. Herman Schilling had 

 1,645 mixed sizes knocked out. F. A. 

 Conway suffered to the extent of about 

 half his glass and Fred Hukriede about 

 the same. John Heidenrick's loss is $800 

 to $1,000, a new house erected during 

 the past summer being totally de-lighted. 

 This place looked as if it was right in 

 the center of the storm. John Eisner 

 suffered with the others and will be kept 

 busy glazing for some time. A. Lange, 

 at the south side cemeteries, estimates 

 his loss at $300. The greenhouses owned 

 by the city in Garfield park were also 

 heavy losers. The Smith & Young Co. 

 was on the extreme eastern edge of the 

 storm and its loss is slight. As in all 

 cases of this kind, the damage to stock 

 is great and hard to estimate. Nearly 

 all hotbed sash is a complete loss; the 

 sash, lying so flat, were easily demol- 

 ished. This was the most severe storm 

 that has ever visited Indianapolis and 

 may it long be the last. All the green- 

 house size glass was cleaned up early 

 next day and many had to wait till more 

 could be obtained from the factories. 



Variota Notes. 



George Wiegand arrived home March 

 16 after a six weeks' trip through the 

 west. He reports a splendid time and 

 everything lovely on the Pacific slope, 

 but, like all Hoosiers, he says Indiana is 

 good enough for him. 



John Hartje has purchased ten acres 

 of land four miles south of the city and 

 expects to erect houses on it this season. 



The Bertermann Bros. Co. will enlarge 

 its Cumberland plant this year by the 

 addition of another large house. 



Frank Harritt has had great success 

 with a sugar camp he opened in his ma- 

 ple grove at Willowmere. He made 

 nearly 100 gallons of fine syrup. 



The city has engaged Mr. Kessler, of 

 Kansas City, as superintendent of parks. 

 He will plan the future park and boule- 

 vard system for the city. A local man 

 will have charge of the work under him. 



The Tomlinson market looks like a 

 spring show these days, large quantities 

 of all kinds of seasonable flowers and 

 plants being offered at moderate prices. 



All the florists are preparing for a 

 heavy spring trade and their bedding 

 stock is in fine shape. S.
