takes place making a thrilling close 
to a day’s fierce fighting. When 
morning comes, and with it unex- 
pectedly the little Monitor, the 
‘‘cheese box’’ as the Confederates 
called it, the real great interest be- 
comes intense, and hearts beat fast 
and furiously as the Merrimac, her 
funnel pouring out volumes of black 
smoke, bears down upon the little 
Monitor as both boats open fire and 
steadily approach each other — the 
contrast is somewhat the same as 
that of little David when he “‘sized 
up’’ the great Goliath. Belching 
their shot and shell into the very 
port holes of each other it is Hell it- 
self let loose, and finally as the Mer- 
rimac turns away, her bow down, 
the fervor of the audience reaches 
the limit. 
The Boston Journal’s Flower Day 
On Wednesday, July 27, The Bos- 
ton Journal is to hold its second 
annual Flower Day for the poor 
children of Boston. 
It is to be another day of joy and 
happiness for those little people 
living in the crowded tenement 
quarters where flowers never grow. 
The people of far and wide well 
remember that great success of last 
year, when, in a single day, blos- 
soms from garden and field poured 
-into the Journal office—poured out 
again into districts where flowers 
are like coins of gold; brightened 
hospitals, where tots, pale and ill, 
smiled in spite of their affliction, be- 
cause of their coming; stirred the 
hearts of hundreds of little folks in 
the missions of the city; made a day 
in the lives of all those unfortunate 
boys and girls that will never—no, 
never be forgotten. 
And now it is all going to occur 
again. 
Last year over 100,000 bouquets 
were contributed. 
It was the people living in the 
suburban localities who made such 
a grand day possible, and now the 
opportunity of giving has come 
again. 
The express companies, the rail- 
roads, the merchants, the clergy, and 
the suburban newspapers have all 
co-operated enthusiastically, and the 
event promises to eclipse that of a 
year ago. 
On the morning of, July 27, be- 
tween the hours of 8 and 11 o’eloek, 
flowers may be left at The Ameri- 
ean Express Co.’s office and will be 
forwarded promptly. 
The garden flowers and the daisy 
from the field are all weleome. Even 
a green shoot pleases flower-hun- 
gry little folks.
