CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DIsPATCH.l
NEW. YORK, February There are
nearly 400 flower girls in the city of New
York. Those are the figures given by the
big florists who supply them with nosegays.
Sadly enough nearly all of them perfume
only the night air with their wares. Those
who peddle natures brightest smiles during
the daytime are mostly big, hulking fellows
whose bawls can be heard above the din of
the bustling shopping thoroughfares where
women most do congregate, for women form
the vast majority of daytime purchasers of
small Roral bunches. Among her big sis
tiers the little flower girl, not timid, but
small of voice and powerless to resist the
swerving current of the street, would be a
worthless straw. So the big fellows win,
But the latter in turn are powerless at
night when their gilded brethren become the
nosegay purchasers Should they then
venture forth with their wares they would
be met only with sneer and jibe while the
silver shower mingled always with Kind
words and gentle smiles and rarely with
even an approach to raillery. These little
hand-maidens of Flora appear to be the
wards OF the public. From pightfall until
even midnight they fit from hotel to hotel,
from table d'hote to table d'hote, from
theater to theater, and finally from chop
house to chop house and he would be indeed
daring rufian who caused one of them to
shrink back in alarm. They are not the
ragged flower girl of the drama, sitting on
step beneath storm of paper snow and sing
ing a drearisome song. Their locks are
neatly brushed, their faces washed to rosi-
ness, their clothing tidy, their shoes whole
and almost without exception their blossom
laden trays presses against snowy white
aprons. Their mothers who send them forth
and some of whom accompany them to the
door of each place which they enter, are re-
sponsible for the neat pictures which the
busy damsels present for they know that the
brightest looking, sweetest looking, tidiest
looking lass opens the most purses.
THEIR RICHEST FIELD.
Their greatest field of profit is provided by
the hundreds and hundreds of table d'hote
establishments which in their varied French,
Italian, German, Hungarian and Hebraic
forms constitute, especially in recent years,
one of the most strikingly European feat
ures of New York life, and which, as they
vary in the price of course dinner from %
