New Ebbitt House, Fourteenth and F 

 streets, N. W., May 6. At this time the 

 newly elected oflScers will be installed 

 and professional talent has been en- 

 gaged to furnish entertainment for the 

 guests. 



Messrs. Schaflfer, Lennan and Cooke 

 made fine scores at the New York show 

 in the bowling contests, their scores be- 

 ing 548, 538 and 535, respectively, and 

 there were only two other florists who 

 did better. 



Among the visitors in town during 

 last week were: Mr. and Mrs. John 

 Heinl, Terre Haute, Ind.; Mr. and Mrs. 

 J. A. Peterson, Cincinnati, O.; Mr. and 

 Mrs. C. E. Critchell, Cincinnati, O. ; 

 Mr. and Mrs. John Stuppy and party, 

 St. Joseph, Mo.; W. N. Rudd, Mount 

 Greenwood. 111., and Harry Papworth, 

 New Orleans, La. 



Local florists are taking an active 

 part in the work being undertaken by 

 the various commercial organizations to 

 provide entertainment for, and make a 

 success of, the convention of the Inter- 

 national Association of Chiefs of Police, 

 to be held here in June. Among those 

 who are active in this connection are 

 Z. D. Blackistone, F. W. Bolgiano and 

 W. F. Crude. C. L. L. 



The trade is interested in- a new lilac 

 now to be seen at the store of J. H. 

 Small & Sons, and blooming at their 

 greenhouses. It is named H. Koster, 

 the variety for which M. Koster & Sons, 

 of Boskoop, recently were given an 

 award of merit by the Royal Horticul- 

 tural Society in London. It is rich, 

 deep blue, carrying good trusses of 

 larger flowers than do tjfie varieties com- 

 monly grown by florists. The Smalls 

 think highly of it. The plants they are 

 flowering just now are some sent for 

 trial, for it will not be put on the mar- 

 ket until next year. Gude Bros. Co. 

 also had some plants for trial, but 

 brought them into flower earlier. Both 

 the Gude brothers speak well of it. 

 saying that it is easy to flower and a 

 good seller.
