for building speculation seized him and he
built houses wherever sites were obtainable.
He went on in this way for some time. when
his mind became unhinged. and he was found
one day walking around his newly built
houses, firing shots from a navy revolver at
imaginary enemies. He was thereupon ar

PLANS TO ENTERTAIN The C KV.NTloN

Mcpherson & Reed. florists. received
Telegram last evening from J. c. Vaughan
Of Chicago conveying the information that
the next meeting Of the Society OF American
Florists would be held at Omaha next year.
The association is now in session at Provl-
dence. r. l., and Mr.. Vaughan was the
accredited representative OF the Council
Bluffs florists in the convention.
The plan to secure the next annual meet
ing Of the association practically originated
with the Council Bluffs florists, and they were
ably supported by the memers of the profess
sion in Omaha and Lincoln. Ex-County
Clerk Reed, who is a member Of the firm
of Mcpherson d Reed, is a personal friend
of Mr.. Nauhan, one of the leading florists of
Chicago, and several months ago he began
correspondence with him on the subject
OF drawing the national association west
ward. Mr.. Nauhan enthusiastically favored
the idea and al once began a campaign
among western florists for the purpose of
enlisting them in the effort. He was very
successful.
The association includes all of the United
Statee and Canada, and the delegates 10 its
conventions number thousands. The session
that is now being held in Providence is the
thirteenth. The national meetings always
last one week, beginning on Monday ana
closing on Saturday. Mr. Reed estimates
that there would not be less than 2 900 regu-
larly appointed delegates in attendance at
the meeting, wherever it may be held,
but with the additional attraction of the
exposition next year the Omaha meeting
will be one of the largest that has been
held. The date OF the meeting will be
about the middle of next August In his
telegram Mr.. Vauhan advises Mr.. Reed to
begin al once the work of organizing the
florists of Council Bluffs, Omaha and sur
rounding cities into associations that will
be capable of preparing a suitable reception

anybody ever enjoyed.
In spacious chamber 1,600 feet under

No matter how hot the day on the outside
the air in this subterranean palace OF the

sweet as the verest crank could have made
to order if he fixed the thing to suit him

will have refreshments served 10 the merry
throng at proper intervals.
