 FIovvers From Florida.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Before me stands crystal vase with fow- CTS in it which came all the way from Jack souville, Florida, and are as fresh as if plucked in New Haven on bright June morning and sent to Now York by the Northam. Those of your readers who recall letter published in your columns re gently (dated December 2S, think signed Gravel er,n will be somewhat surprised to know
 that so many blossoms, beautiful and fras grant, are to be found in that vicinity. Let
 me enumerate those in my bouquet. There
 is heamosa rose, 8 brilliant poinsettiabract,
 fragrant white jasmine and beautiful peach
 blossoms, while for the green in the bou-
 quet may be seen lycopodium and a spray of evergreen, with the leaves of the rose and jasmine.
 The testimony i'll favor of Florida in Jan uary, given bya these bright and fragrant blossoms, is emphasized by a letter, which came at the same time, dated January II, 1888, in which the writer says: GAS we look from our window into the next yard, we see thousands of tuberoses, some few i'll bios som, but most of them in the bud, while two or three acres in an adjoining field are planted in the same way, being cultivated for their perfume, which is prepared right here in building on the lot by distillation. Peach trees are in blossom and acres of peas also. Some strawberries are set. One man says he has some almost ripe"
 This is Florida as it appears to one who is enjoying the balmy atmosphere and does not feel inclined to find any fault with bridge which may carry him safely over from ''the golden glory of October. days" as discerned among the elms and naples of his beloved native city, to the welcome sunshine glinting through the tender green of those same re- cuperated naples and elms.
 MT. Olds says ''the weather has been most charming and delightful for the past ten or twelve days, like bright, sunny days in June at the North; no rain and but few clouds at g time. The winter is past and bright, cheery spring is here. We ride with horse car doors and windows all open, without evercoats or wraps"
 have felt at liberty to occupy your-space
 with this communication because so many
 friends of Mr. and Mrs. Olds have asked from time to time how the climate appeared to them and whether indeed they found Florida, in any sense, land of flowers. l herewith give them testimony upon which they can rely. P. A. Il.

q Dearth of Weddings in one of Now
 Haven's Suburbs,

MestviIlels Methodist girls seem sly of snbarking on the sea of matrimony or sub iecting their pretty selves to the moose matri- lnonial, as is inferred from the fact that was mentioned recently at social gathering at she church, viz., that in the last two years there had not been a wedding among the membership of the Westville Methodist church-and the church is Hourishing one and has not few desirable girls to pick
 from and Q very popular pastor who can tie Q wedding knot in the incest style. Young rnen from the city in quest of wives are said to bs thinking of moving out to Westyille, especially as the price of building lots fhere ia very low and there are no city taxes to uay there; while the electric light makes the streets q paradise evenings compared with shsir former darkness. Moreover, there ia skating now in Westvil1e right under the glare of the electric light and there is good sisikhing in the suburbs away from the glare Of the lights, and sleighs can be obtained that are not so brilliantly lighted as to keep tAd occupants at freezing distance.

 Night.
 Sunday morning Mrs. George Wohlmacher of s1 Sylvan avenue looked out of her win- dow and noticing how slippery the walks about her yard were she proceeded to sprinkle them with ashes. While doing this she slipped and fell, striking the back of her head and inaicting what she thought at the time was only slight injury. She attended to her household duties during the day and suffered not the slightest pain in her head from the injury. However, she was taken suddenly ill in the night. She complained of violent pain in her head and soon after wards lost consciousness. Dr. Bellosa was summoned when the dangerous symptoms were first noticed. He examined Mrs. Wohl- macher's head and found that her fall had resulted in concussion of the brain. Mrs. Wohlmacher is fifty three years old. At late hour last evening her condition was about the sarne

 The greater portion of the audience at the Hyperion last evening doubtless thought 1t strange that the Banjo club should open the concert when an overture by the orchess ra would have seemed more fitting. That they did so is explained in this fashion: It is said that the Banjo club has become jealous of the orchestra and that it refused to play after the orchestra, and that it would not play at all unless it was allowed to play be- fore the orchestra and unless it be given more numbers on the programme than the other organization. If this is the fact it is puerile in the extreme. The orchestra is the larger and more artistic of the two organiza- tions and should not be discouraged or ham, pered by the lesser. The construction of last evenings programme certainly gives credepce to the report

The Glee Club Concert,

A large and brilliant audience filled the Hyperion Theater last evening on the occa- sion of the twenty second annual winter concert of the Yale Glee club There were seats in the theater for a good many more, however, than were present. The concert quently showing signs of weariness. The management was unusually bad, the waits long and tedious. The programme could have been finished in half the time that was spent upon it. It was 8:20 when the Banjo club filed on the stage. They played Wald- teufels Minuet Polka, at the conclusion of 't'91" was displayed on the apron directly over the center of the stage, and amidst the cheers of the freshmen copious shower of cards with the numerals fell from the huge chandelier over the center of the house. The freshmen were wild with joy, while nearly half an hour was wasted in waiting for the sophomores to tear down the banner Mean time several pigeons flew around the theater with the freshmen numerals. After this tiresome wait the programme was proceeded with. It was good one, but might have been rendered better. It was constructed queerly; the long waits while the stage was being set for the orchestra could have been greatly diminished if they had been placed of the intermissions. The orchestra acquit- ted itself with merit and the Banjo club came in for liberal display of favor. As for the Glee club, it's work was excellent at times and at others rough. In fine it may be said that the Yale Glee club has often given in New Haven better concerts than that of last evening.
