 one of them had the toothache one night 

 and the father got hold of the wrong 

 boy and pulled his tooth.

 duck pin team of the Pittsburgh Cut 

 Flower Co. defeated the team of the

 evening, March 13. The McCallum Co. 

 team will play the A. W. Smith Co. 

 team a return game the same night. 

 E. C. Ludwig 's bowling was the feature 

 of the evening. Bill Calligan and Jake 

 Gterwig representf • the long and the 

 short of it among the Pittsburgh bowl- 

 ers. Earl Tipton, of the A. W. Smith 

 team, is the thin man of the league.

 who was in the city attending the club 

 meeting, fell on the ice while here and 

 injured his leg so seriously that he 

 needed a physician.

DAYTON, O. 



The Market. 



There is not a great deal to be said 

 concerning the condition of trade last 

 week; plenty of stock in all lines, with 

 a fair demand. This week being 

 "Spring Style Week" in Dayton, con- 

 sequently the florists made a big thing 

 out of their palms and decorative plants, 

 as every available plant was used, be- 

 sides quantities of flowers in spring va- 

 rieties and decorative greens. This has 

 done much to help the week along and 

 bring satisfactory results. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. Isabella A. Campbell, the aged 

 mother of Mrs. J. W. McNary, died at
