PROVIDENCE, R. L 



Trade Conditions. 



The reaction which usually follows any 

 of the special floral festival days has 

 been experienced by the florists in this 

 vicinity since Easter. Compared with 

 previous years, however, the week was 

 above the average and many dealers re- 

 port a good general trade. The latter 

 part of the week witnessed a decided 

 break in prices on carnations and the ap- 

 pearance on the street of the curbstone 

 fakers. 



Various Notes. 



John A. Booth, of Newport, has ac- 

 cepted a position as foreman with John 

 E. Thayer, at South Lancaster, Mass. 



Charles H. Hunt had the decorations 

 for the annual ' ' old-fashioned dance ' ' of 

 the Providence Veteran Firemen's Asso- 

 ciation April 15. 



John Wood handled nearly 25,000 

 bunches of arbutus from Cape Cod last 

 week. 



Eugene A. Appleton was a member of 

 the committee on decorations for the re- 

 ception tendered to Et. Kev. Matthew 

 Harkins at the Eloise April 12. Among 

 the guests were James B. Canning and 

 William Appleton. 



T. O'Connor reports the largest Easter 

 business this year that he has ever had. 



John Macrae is preparing for the erec- 

 tion of the two large greenhouses that he 

 purchased some time ago at his place on 

 Smith street. The houses were a part of 

 the range of Richard Dunbar, at Bristol. 



J. F. Schellinger has a fine lot of bed- 

 ding stock at his houses at Riverside, 

 nearly ready for delivery, 



Gibson, of Newport, was in town last 

 week directing the placing of several 

 large floral pieces on the grave of Mrs. 

 John Carter Brown at Swan Point cem- 

 etery. One piece, an immense cross of 

 Easter lilies, was one of the most elab- 

 orate ever seen hereabouts. 



Mr. Greene, of Bayersdorfer & Co., 

 Philadelphia, was a visitor April 15. 



Johnston Bros, had their hands full 

 last week with special work for Easter 

 weddings and receptions. 



The table decorations for the dinner 

 served Monday evening at Narragansett
