The Flower Market and the Poor Gardener.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t is very evident, and 1 echo the sentiment
expressed by E. C.. H. in your issue of wednes-
day, that the flower market proposition does
not seem to be understood, and beg in all
fairness that you allow space in your valuable
paper to hear all sides of the question.
The poetical part of the floral industry was
most beautifully portrayed and the uninitiated
could easily be led to the belief that the 'smalI
gardeners and the poor workingmen, with
their slender means, would be profted.
So far as they are concerned the project in
in its present form is delusion and a snare.
This gilded palace which it is proposed to
erect on one Of Uncle Sans most valuable
reservations will not be the place where the
small gardeners will be allowed to show their
wares with any degree of satisfaction or profit.
Such place can only be supported and made
profitable by men Of experience, and the one
with the largest capital and shrewd business
ideas will profit. The poor, struggling garden
ers with their few dollars worth OF stock in
trade will be relegated to the curbstone of our
regular markets, where they will continue in
the future as they have in the past to reap a
good profit. not from my lord or my lady, but
from proprietors of the humble purse" who,
jostling along through the busy mart espy a
geranium plant or bunch of pansies which
would bring joy to the heart of some poor suf-
ferer at home.
This workingman with the humble purse
would not have time nor inclination to visit
this floral palace, nor is he wanted there by the
swell florists of the place or by its promoters.
These latter, when the subject was first
broached. cast around them for the parties to
carry out their grand ideas, and to myself and
others was displayed q most brilliant plan.
The idea was to get the swell florists to take
hold OF it; the promoters, with their social in
huence, to obtain from Congress government
assistance to secure a site and put up build
ing. They proposed to keep the establishment
exclusive, making it kind of rendezvous for
people OF their settle 400. so to speak, OF
Washington. 1t was proposed to issue cards Of
admission only to the chosen few.
Now then. if these promoters are really earn
est in their desire to help the poor. struggling
gardener; to bestOw . blessing on the poor
workingman. and to instruct the school chill.
dren and the country at large. let them 20 be.
fore Congress and work to secure such an ap-
preparation will enable the proper officers in
charge to lay the foundation whereon to build
an institution that will compare favorably with
the world-renowned Kew Gardens OF London
and the Jardin DIES Plantes of Paris. Such an
institution would be a lasting monument to the
promoters and a blessing to all mankind.

A Case Of Unnatural Love.

Another case Of unnatural love, similar to
the iniatuation of Alice Mitchell for Freda
Ward. has been discovered in Memphis. Addie
Phillips and Minnie Hubbard are each seven
teen years of age. On Sunday the two girls
disappeared and were not found for three
days. Miss Phillips on her return home said
she and Minnie had been together. She told
her mother that she loved Minnie and would
rather be dead than separated from her. She
further stated that she cared nothing for the
society of men and that Minnie was the only
person she could marry and this she intended
TO DO as soon as she secured some money. Miss
Phillips is a fine-lOoking girl and has been
carefully educated. 1t was agreed today be-
tween the parents Of the two girls to separate
them, and when Miss Phillips heard the result
OF the council she was overcome with grief.
