OTTAWA, KAN. 



B. Romstedt is hoping that one 

 Charles Brace, to whom he gave tem- 

 porary work a short time ago, will re- 

 member to return the watch he borrow- 

 ed of Mr. Romstedt 's young son. In- 

 vestigation has shown that Brace was 

 an inmate of the Boys' Industrial 

 School at Topeka for about six years 

 preceding the last two, .having been 

 given his discharge by virtue of his 

 having reached the age of 21 years. He 

 now is 23 years of age, about five feet 

 four inches high, with dark hair and 

 eyes. When he left Mr. Romstedt he 

 wore a black suit and overcoat, with a 

 blue serge cap and grayish blue shirt. 

 H. W. Charles, superintendent of the 

 Boys' Industrial School, in a letter 

 dated February 17, said the boy is 

 thoroughly degenerate; while not 

 feeble minded, still mentally unbal- 

 anced and in a great measure irrespon- 

 sible. Brace claimed to Mr. Romstedt 

 that he had worked for a number of 

 well-known florists. 



MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



Stock in general remains about the 

 same as it has been for the last few 

 weeks. Roses are still scarce. Carna- 

 tions are shortening up to some extent, 

 but the cut is still large efiough to sup- 

 ply the demand. Bulbous stock is ar- 

 riving in quantity now and the quality 

 is fine. Violets and sweet peas are 

 exceptionally good for this time of year. 



Lent is now with us, but we are 

 pleased to be able to say that there 

 has been little falling off in trade on 

 that account. Business in general is 

 good and nobody is complaining hard.
