CHRYSANTHEMUMS.
Floral Society Discusses the Choice
Varieties and Their ExceiIencieS.


The lady members of the State Floral
Society had very pleasant chat over the
merits and demerts of the mum berless
varieties of chrysanthemums and pinks at
their rooms on Suffer street yesterday
afternoon. Professor Wickson of Berke-
ley was in the chair. and was very eau
tious 10 see that everything was carried on
strictly in Tom Reed style.
A partial report of the recent flower
show was submitted by the committee of
arrangements. The paper showed that in
all proba bility the society would clear
$3.50 at least from the exhibit. The ladies
appeared to be highly elated over this
announcement. Whatever tie profits may
be they will go toward liQuidating the
large debt now standing against the So
ciety.
Mr.. Miller gave the ladies some very
practical and excellent advice upon the
art of cultivating carnations. Mr.. Miller
is a carnaiion enthusiast He didn't see
why people were crazy over chrysanthe-
NUNS. He thought they were not to be
compared with the sweet-smeliing earna-
ton. Mr.. Miller admitted that the latter
was most difficult TO cultivate, but he de-
clared that there were varieties which can
be grown In California to great advantage.
For a florist, he said that the carnatlon
was much more marketable than many of
the other varieties.
Mrs. Cross wanted to know IL there were
any late varieties of yellow chrysanthe-
NUNS. She remarked that she had a son
who wa. forever asking for yellow chrys-
santnemums and she wanted if possible to
satisfy him.
Mrs. Grothwell recommended the
''moonshine" as an excellent variety for
late growth. She declared it just the
thing to wear TO a football game.
Mrs. Stevens of Alameda presented
"Dr. Colbert" as rare yellow beauty and
one that would add luster to the lapel of
Mrs. Cross sons coat.
Professor Wickson suggested 1.-THE
Golden Wedding" an excellent kind for
the university boys and girls to bedeck
themselves with on football occasions.
Mrs Stevens added to the list "W. 81.
Lincoln" yellowstone Park" and
Ivory"
Among the white varieties "Ths
Queen" jerome JONES'" The World, "
''Pendennis" and Mrs. Rotchkiss" were
put forward as choice specimens for Cali
fornia culture.
Mrs. Walker spoke in the interests of
pinks. She was very enthusiastic over
Mrs. Craig Lippincott" and Harry Wild
mer." Professor Wickson vouched for
Ada Spaulding." while others praised
Princess" ana George Villa m Childs.'
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1894-11-10

two more suspects, against whose names the
prosecution will direct their investigation
On Monday next.
Manager Dexter of the Baldwin was the
first witness on the stand and was Ques-
toned as to the suspected suffers" His
memory was in very poor condition, and
he couldn't recoIlect for the life of him
Just what was what. He was asked point
blank by Mr.. Clunie If he had not made an
arrangement with Senator Jerry Mahoney
for filling in suffers in all the vacant
rooms in the hotel. He had not the slight
est recollection of any such conversation
with Mahoney or anybody else. The
ledger of the hotel would show just what
amounts of money Mahoney had paid.
Another effort was made to brush the
cobwebs off Mr.. Dexter's memory, but it
failed. and he was allowed to step down iu
favor of Clerk Brush Hardenburg, who
had been ordered by the court, at the re-
quest of the prosecution, 10 cool his heels
in the corridors while Dexter was deliver
ing his testimony.
On his examination On Monday last
Harden burg had presented in court pink
slip on which was written Samuel Lust
NJ" He had been requested to bring the
slips upon which the names of other sup
posed suffers had been written, but when
questioned stated he did not have them
with him. They were not in the rack at
the hotel, he said. and bis idea was that
they had been destroyed.
At this point the memory of Mr.. Har-
denburg showed signs of the wear and
tear of election, and his testimony for the
