of the bulbs were blind. Considerable 

 quantities of Formosa lilies are seen, 

 and these are fine. Calendulas have 

 been offered in l^ger quantities than 

 usual this season,-^ but of late the de- 

 mand has fallen off. Cattleyas again 

 are plentiful, but selling steadily at 

 moderate prices. Valley is abundant 

 and the demand not only light, but er- 

 ratic. , .' ' t

The governor of Montana has de- 

 clined to sign the extradition papers 

 necessary to secure the return of C. M. 

 Dickinson to Illinois under the year-old 

 warrant served on him at Stony Butte 

 last week. The governor takes the 

 stand that under the circumstances he 

 will not sign the papers until an indict- 

 ment has been returned against Mr. 

 Dickinson by the grand jury in Cook 

 county, Illinois. 



Various Notes. 



A window of baskets of Killarneys, 

 arranged by Arthur Weatherwax, was 

 an attraction at W. J. Smyth's last 

 week. The baskets were of various 

 styles and sizes, containing from a 

 dozen to eighteen roses, but each to 

 sell at $2.50. To brighten the window, 

 each basket was decorated with an unu- 

 sually large bow of pink chiffon. 



On the program of the Illinois Colony 

 Club, which meets at the Auditorium 

 hotel March 13, Miss Virginia Poehl- 

 mann is down for a toe dance and Miss 

 Edna Foehlmann for a piano solo. The 

 ladies of the Poehlmann families are 

 active in the big Colony organization. 



The annual Lenten sale at Fleisch- 

 man's last week was an excellent suc- 

 cess. Not only did the public respond 

 to the advertising, but the market was 

 easy enough so that most items, even 

 at the low prices, must have afforded 

 a margin of profit that would be satis- 

 factory to avyone doing a big volume 

 of business, tt generally is conceded 

 that the Fleisdunm store is doing con- 

 siderably the largest business in town.

The season's business will compare 

 favorably with last year, according to 

 C. A. Samuelson. 



The Bohannon Floral Co. has leased 

 a store at 57 East Monroe street and 

 will open there in the near future. This 

 will relieve the congestion in the pres- 

 ent store in the University Club build- 

 ing and provide working quarters for 

 both stores. 



At J. A. Budlong 's P. C. Schupp says 

 valley proved an excellent crop straight 

 through the season to Lent, and that 

 he expects good business also from Eas- 

 ter to the last day of June. He stored 

 more pips this year than heretofore. 



It is the opinion of Erne & Klingel 

 that the call for white carnations for 



St. Patrick's day will exceed the re- 

 sources of the market. 



According to present indications^ 

 those who hold stocks of ferns in cold 

 storage will make some money on them 

 this year. E. E. Pieser says the only 

 question will be as to the quality of 

 the stock when taken out of the freezer. 



Determined to be in style, even at 

 some personal discomfort, A. L. 

 Vaughan is limping with "Chance's- 

 arch." It is the breaking down of the- 

 arch of the instep that put iPrank 

 Chance off first base, which in turn 

 made famous a difficulty common to- 

 those who are much on their feet.
