MEMPHIS FLORAL COMPANY
The Largest and Most Reliable Estate
IishDseRt sOcth of Cincinnati
Ed Dale, Manager.

Although one OF the greatest industries in
the North, few years ago the flower and
plapt business was almost unknown in the
South. In the Northern civ les there is hardly
q grassy plot to be seen that is not decorated
with plant or flower. In the South, gen.
orally, ouT yards were allowed TO grow IN
weeds with here and there a sickiy plant.
The Memphis Floral Company in few
wears has changed all this. Under the man.
agement OF Mr.. Il. A. Lamb, il became rec
oguized as The largest and most reliable es-
tsbIishment south of Cincinnati. The energy
displayed by him in building up this Dnsi-
nes- has been rewarded by the, offer OF a
most ha,tering position in New York. The
man sgement has nov fallen 10 my share, and
! can assure our patrons we intend 10 begin
where he left of, aud to offer them a liner
supply of flowers and plants at a cheaper
rate than ever before. ! promise to dupll-
cate the rates of any Northern house you
may bring me. / intend to keep the trade IN
Memphis, and as for cut-fower work / en-
gage 10 furnish more flowers for the money
than any house North or South. As for the
taste of my work, leave that to The decision
of all who have ever had an Ed Dale basket

have been largely increased. As for our
ballroom work, we refer to the Tennessee
and Memph clubs. Ii is now the fashion

THE ELEVATOR.


Ode OF the grand enterprises OF Memphis,
and one 10 which every citizen seems TO feel
a personal interest, is the immense grain and
package elevator at the foot OF Jefferson
street. Il will soon be completed, and will
afford as fine facilities for handling freight,
either by river or rail, as are possessed by
any city i'll the country. Every railroad
running into the city is now connected by
rail with the elevator, and its river front will
be ready for steamers from every port on the
Mississippi and It's tributaries by September
Is, 1892 thus afording shipping facilities
une qualed by none. Freight consigned TO
the elevator will be stored or shipped with
out delay or draysge, and at lowest rates by
river or rail. In regard TO the building We
can only repeat what has been said before,
that il is one of the most complete elevators
Of lis day, furnished with the latest approved
machinery for elevating, cleaning, sorting
weighing, shipping and storage of all kinds
of grain.
lis package department is grand in its pro-
portions and outfit, its floor space being
about seven acres, requiring fourteen engines
in its various departments, Thus afordlng
facilities for unloading steamers not equaled
on the river Its cost will be about $780,
600. Mr.. Watson, the builder, is now put
ting on Inc finishing touches. The Board OF
Directors are: J. c. Nicely, Napoleon Hill,
Louis Hammer, and +. Galloway. j. G..
NeeIy Is president, and r. Galloway super
intendenl. The standing OF these gentle
men, the assurances the company have oil
freight handling, and the facilities the ele-
yator has for storing, will make the great
elevator enterprise an immense success.

M ENKEN BROTHERS

been discussed at the meeting of the stock
holders OF the Memphis and Charleston rail-
road on the 22d OF last month, bnt that q
road from Corin,b, Miss, to Birmingham,
Ala, appeared 10 be the faVorite scheme
The distance between the two places" said
Colonel Patterson, "is about $50 miies, and
runs through the best coal and iron fields of
North Alabama. Then, too, it is not an ex-
Pe~sig 90 route. / believe il can be built for
$4,000 per mile, which would make the
coat of the road So, 10000 charter has
been secured for this road by Sam Tate, ir,
and he thinks he will have no trouble what
ever in raising the money to build il. The
scheme is this: To build the road from Bir-
mingham TO Corinth, and thence, by way of
the Memphis and Charleston, to Memphis,
there 10 connect with the Memphis and Kan
sas City road, now rapidly approaching COM
pletiou. The distance from Memphis 10
Birmingham is only about 100 miles, so that
the coal and iron from Birmingham could be
landed in Memphis in a short time,
and at the minimum of expense.
On the other hand, the grain and
other Western products could be
carried to Birmingham, and from there dis
tributed throughout Alabama, Georgia and
Florida. Thus, you see, there would always
be an abundance of traffic both ways. This
was the road most favored, as 1 told you be-
fore. Colonel Colyar stated that il was far
superior TO the Evansville and Florence
route, both on account OF its shortness and
because OF the better country through which
it runs. You will see yourself that it il per-
fectly feasible, and 1 think it is the very best
line that could possibly be built"

Here is a firm OF the most active merchants

with a large list of retail merchants who
make almost daily purchases; they deal
largely in liquors, tobacco ard cigars, articles
that people will have; they are also agents
for Winship Gins and Presses, very popular

WHAT MEMPHIS NEEDS.


Before winding up this Overture, the Az.
PEAL wishes 10 make d few Suggestions, and
II expresses the hope that the poison will
work. In the first place, Memphis wants
riverside park. The APPEAL has hitherto
called atttHtion TO the unsightiy appear nce
OF the bluffs. Memphis needs park on the
river front, where the people can 20 during
the warm summer nights, get the fresh
breeze, perchance listeu to delightful music
that plays accompaniment to the sparkling
flow of the river. No city in the
country offers a better chance than
Memphis for the establishment OF
delightful public RENDEZVOUS. With pretty
park upon the river, the city would MAJ Ike
fine impression upon the stranger approach
ing upon a steamboat. Our rugged bluffs
would look like fairy picture. The beauty
Of the city and Its attractiyeness would be
greatly enhanced, and the exodus of our peo-
pie would be less during the warm weather.
The 6ickasaw parade ground is the
place for the park said the AFPEAL
several weeks ago, "and all the remain
ing bluff, except the customhouse lot,
should be removed, and the area from Front
street to the wharf to be paved with stone,
20 there will be no regulsrly-defned street
that the bluff on which the customhouse
stands is to be secured on the north, south
and west sides BY stone sea-wails, and the
grounds about the building improved by the
planting of trees and shrubbery, and laid on
in walks, etc. A portion of the bluff on
which the cnstomhouse stands remains me
property of the city, and i:,allowsd to reraain,
as it Is al present, viii mar the beauty OF the
eustomhouse and its enclosure. The bluH
north of Court street has been partially
removed, and there remains but little to be
done to bring it down 10 the regular slope OF
the wharf. All north OF Jefferson street has
been graded of, and nearly all paved. The
expense of removing the bluffs would not be
very gresl-in fact, propositions have been
made frequently by brickmakers asking the

THE OLD cry DEBT.

The old city debt which has oceasioned
80 much dispute, ard which can be read
lily met when the city begins 10 enjoy 10
the full her prosperity, is, SO far as the AP-
PEAL is able 10 gather from reliable data
lied up to J une, as follows;
Liability, as per Latham statement,

Interest ON judgment, paving and other
Indebtedness, not estimated in the Latham
statement, is to be added 10 this amount, but
no data is contained in said statement from
which estimate of interest can be made with
sny pretension 10 accuracy.
Should the courts decide that the Taxing
District is the successor Of the city, and liza
BILE for the debt incurred durtng the period
OF her dissipation, there Is every reason 10
believe that the District will be able to meet
it at fifty cents on the dollar, 10 be paid by
a commission appointed by the Legislature.
One hundred and forty thousand dollars of
back taxes is coming to the city; collections
are being made upon Il every day, and it
will be applied 10 paving the streets. The
necessities of the hour, and the law is being
faithfully administered.
