Trade Conditions. 



Last week was a dark, disagreeable 

 one, a drizzling rain or mist putting 

 everybody completely out of sorts. Not- 

 withstanding this drawback, business 

 among the retailers was the best in sev- 

 eral weeks. There were more funerals 

 and weddings than usual, which, with 

 graduating and social functions at the 

 various educational and dancing institu- 

 tions, made a large demand for cut stock. 



Por several years there has been an in- 

 creasing custom of purchasing potted 

 plants in bloom for Memorial day pur- 

 poses. The fact that Memorial day this 

 year came on Monday greatly accelerated 

 this demand and the supply of bedding 

 plants of all kinds was almost exhausted. 

 In years past small potted geraniums, 

 heliotropes, ageratums and similar selec- 

 tions have sufficed to meet the popular 

 cry; this year there has been a constant 

 call and ready sale for potted rose 

 bushes, ramblers, hydrangeas and others 

 of the better class. 



Late Saturday night, all day Sunday 

 and from daylight Monday until far into 

 the day the florists were busy making up 

 loose bouquets, to retail at from 50 cents 

 to $2. In these, callas, peonies, carna- 

 tions, roses, stocks, asparagus and ferns 

 formed the chief part. More than one 

 florist sold completely out of cut flowers 

 of every description, and prices ruled 

 from a third to double the regular rates. 



Various Notes. 



Timothy O'Connor has during the last 

 week been making transfers of his real 

 estate to his several children, whereby 

 they may have the benefit and enjoyment 

 thereof during his lifetime. The con- 

 veyances, signed by himself and his wife, 

 Elizabeth, were placed on record at the 

 city hall May 25, as follows: To Mary 

 L. McCarthy, lot and improvements on 

 the southerly side of Barnes street; to 

 Timothy L. O'Connor, lot and improve- 

 ments on the southerly side of Barnes 

 street, and to William H. O'Connor, lot 

 and improvements at the corner of Presi- 

 dent and Cole avenues. Each of these is 

 the house in which the party named lives. 



At the recent annual meeting of the 



Geraniums 



We have a fine lot of Geraniums in 4-iD. pota, in bud and bloom, in fine 

 shape for spring bedding. Marvel, A. Ricard, M. de Caatellane,
