John Lang is even the florists
•themselves do not know. The
price of them is $1.50 each. In
size they equal the American Beau
ty Rose, but they are lighter and
more delicate in color. Floral dec
orations, it is said, will be much
more abundant this year for din
ners and similar entertainments
than they ever have been before,
and a great many of the cheaper
varieties of rose will be used. The
Catharine Mermet, the Capucid
and the Cusine roses are all com
paratively inexpensive and all
beautiful. Violets are, if possible,
moire popular than ever. They
sell now for'182.00 a bunch, and
there are fifty or seventy-five vio
lets in a bunch. Later on they
sell for higher prices still. There
are club-men in town who have-
two bunches of violets delivered at
their club every day. One florist

When the celebrated animal
trainer Martin, who died lately, ;
had retired to private life, one day
he took a notion that he would vis
it his former large menagerie,
which he had not seen for five
years. It was in Brussels, and he
started for that city from his coun
try seat near Rotterdam. At 4
o’clock, the time for feeding, he
entered the menagerie. He min
gled with the crowd and waited un
til the animals would receive their
food, for which they were waiting
with wild impatience.
While they were eating he began
to cough. Suddenly the animals
paused in their treat _and listened,
then broke into wild bowls of joy
and tore at the iron bars, so that
many of the timid visitors fled
from the menagerie.
Then Martin stepped forward.
With a movement of his hand and
with his powerful voice he com
manded silence, and suddenly, all
was quiet. Ho swung himself over
the bars which separated the vis
itors from the animals, and put his
hand into the cages to fondle the
animals. A mighty tigress show
ed more joy than any of the others.
When Hartin’shand glided over
her magnificent far, her limbs
trembled nervously, sbe uttered
weak, tender grunts, and through
the iron bars with her rough
tongue, sbe licsed the face of her
former master.' When he went
away she lay down without eating
any more food.

The New Orleans Picayune has
discovered that" t1ip only State that
has been absolutely uniform in its
congressional representation is
Rhode Island. It had two mem
bers under the first census and the
same number ever since. It is
bound to remain in the same cate
gory another ten years. Its popu
lation in 1880 was 279,531, and it
is now 328,000. This is a variation
which.precludes change, whatever
basis of representation may be
adopted. Delaware has always had
just one, except under the third
census it had two. There are the
only constant quantities in the en
tire category.
There are nearly h 50,000 colored
people in New York City. Some
of them have built up fortunes in
real estate speculation. Ono of
them accumulate! an estate worth
. $100,000 iu the catering business.
A -, number are worth $200,000
each.
