Miss Barnett, Mr. Eickards and lady, 

 A. M. Henshaw and lady, and several 

 others who were guests of those who 

 engaged complete tables for their friends. 

 The arrangements for the seating of 

 friends together gave universal satisfac- 

 tion. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists' Club will hold its month- 

 ly meeting March 8, in its rooms in 

 the Grand Opera House on West Twen- 

 ty-third street. This is rose night, and 

 Harry May, secretary of the exhibition 

 committee, says a large number of ex- 

 hibits is assured. Shipments made in 

 care of Secretary Young, 51 West Twen- 

 ty-eighth street, will be properly staged 

 and cared for. W. H. Elliott, of Brighton, 

 Mass., will be the speaker. 



The auction houses open March 16. 

 Importations are already arriving. W. 

 J. Elliott says this year will overtop 

 all others in the quantity and quality of 

 offerings. Ambrose Cleary says the 

 Cleary Horticultural Co. is doing a large 

 jobbing and shipping business in advance 

 of the auction season. John P. Cleary, 

 of the Fruit Auction Co., is home from 

 a two months' European trip, where he 

 arranged for the shipments of about 

 everything that interests the florist and 

 which it is the firm's intention to offer 

 at daily auctions, to begin about the 

 middle of the month. 



Thomas Young, Jr., has contracted 

 with the King Construction Co. for two/ 

 detached iron-frame houses, each 25x500/ 

 at his place at Bound Brook, N. J. J 



J. Metz, of 182 East One Hundred 



and Sixteenth street, over 80 years of age 

 and an old-time florist, died Saturday, 

 February 27. He leaves a widow and 

 five children. He has done a retail busi- 

 ness at this address during the last fif- 

 teen years and was highly esteemed in 

 the community. 



Alex. McConnell's big store is a gold 

 exhibit these days, with forsythia in 

 plant and bloom. These, with grand 

 branches of acacia from W. Siebrecht, 

 Jr., of Astoria, added greatly to the 

 beauty of the club's banquet decora- 

 tions. 

 1^ J. B. Nugent 's windows on West Twen- 

 '^ ty-eighth street have been gorgeous 

 lately. 



The second annual ball of the Greek- 

 American Florists<!UA.ssociation was held 

 Tuesday evening, March 2. Over 2,000
