lal A few days ago the JorRSAL man
bad the pleasure of visiting the greenhouse
of Dr. +. g. Danforth and take some notes
ON the extensive business that this wide
awake gentleman has built up aside from
bis office work at dentistry.
About ten years ago the doctor started in
the business, prompted by his love of
flowers, in diminutive hot-house of ca
puciiy of a few hundred plants His bust
ness has increased till now he has house
with almost 5000 square feet of glass one of
the largest in the State, and does an extern
sive business. wholesale, retail and in cut
flowers He has this fall stocked COM
pletely two greenhouses in this State. and
Is every day filling orders. some as far
away as Iowa and West Virginia.
Cut howers have been sent as far as New
York and Massachusetts orders are very
frequent.
At present he has over 10000 growing
plants in lis houses beside large number
Of bulbs stored in the cellar. Along one
side of the main room are more than n 1000
carnaiion pinks in blossom and in another
room are about 6o0 chrysantheuums, em-
braciug 80 different varieties. all in full
bloom. among them being rare japanese
pink ostrich plume.
On another table are 800 rose bushes of
over 20 different kinds. Palms, ferns.
hegonias, vines and thousand and one
other different kinds of plants, rare and
more common, are scattered about in every
conceivable nook and corner. The doctor
also has many oddities of plan, life in this
climate, among them being an india rubber

chry santhumam imported from the former
country which hc will first na,re in an

Both the doctor and Mrs. Danforth take
great pleasure in the greenhouse among the
flowers, and truly one might imagine, even
though the cold winds were blowing over
The snowy hills outside, that during the
hour spent among the bright foliage and
flowers he had been spirited away to the
warm sunny tropics.

A PITIABLE CASE.
Investigation Of the Pittston
Mystery by Authorities
Reveals the Horrible Condition Of
Two Young Women.
Both O. Feeble Mind and Nearly on the Verge
Of Starvation.

! GARDNER, Nov. Especial. The
MS stery surrounding the three women who
have been living in so peculiar manner IN
Pittston bids fair to be solved at an early
dav and the solution viii be that of one oi
the most sad afairs which has occurred in
this vicinity for many years.
SATURDAY Deputy Sheriff Connor of Ran
tolpl. reading the account of the affair as
pub)ished in the JOURNAL. deemed that Of
fei4l action should be taken in the matter
and made an investigation 90 Saturday and
Sunisv disclosing a condition of affairs
pitiable in the extreme.
. ON SATURDAY a. he approached the house,

draw pail of water and stepping quickly
Ia the door be succeeded in forcing an en-
trance, although the aged woman with n
strength born of fear made violent efforts
10 exclude him from the house.
Mr.. Connor finally gained admission to
the room. where on rude mattress on
the floor laid the third of the trio of wo-
man with nothing but skirt and apron to
cover her form. Her face was covered,
and thinking she might be dead, Mr.. Con-
nor advanced and lifted the cloth, the aged
guardian raining curses upon him as he did
so.
Slowly the head moved and the eyes
opened but they were the eyes of an imbe-
silc. vacant, expressionless. She raised
herself partly from the bed mumbling un-
intelligibly and at last ending with a driv-
cling. iIiotc laugh which told painfully of
the absolute lack of reason.
Mr. Cunnor made II tour of the rooms
and found a rude bench, "A cracked stove,
two old tin pals and barrel with few
handfuls of -four in the bottom as the only
articles Of furniture. Not scrap OF any
food could be found in the house.
The old woman, when asked what the
matter was with the girl, said she had been
run over in Boston and was cripple, but
Mr. Connor states that she is IN reality on
the death bed of starvation. Not gram OF
food. not a spark of fire. the picture pre-
rented was pitiable in the extreme.

man was true

many thousands. Advices from all parts

TorEKA. Kan, Nov. THE situation in
Kansas changed slightly more in favor of
the Fusionists tolay. when Sydney q.
Cook, Democratic candidates for Congress
in the fifth district, withdrew in favor of
John Davis, the Populist incumbent. Chair
man Simpson, of the Republican state com
mittee says the Republicans will without
doubt, have majority of 10000 to 10000
on the state and national tickets and will
elect every Congressional candidate.
Chairman Bridentalhall of the Populist
state committee claims the election of
Lewellyn as Governor by majority of
at least l2 900 and says Weaver will run
ahead of the state ticket at least 10000
votes. The fusion between the Populists
and Democrats has been arranged in nearly
every Legislative and senatorial district.
The indications are that the Legislature
will be anti-Republican.
