RICH EASTER BLOOM
Brought to It's Prime Exactly at the
Right Time. H..


Right Time.
The Glass Block Is to have an exhibit
extraordinary of Easter flowers this week.
For weeks Manager James Souden of the
Donaldson greenhouses, Thirty fifth
street and Portland avenue, has been
bending every energy and turning every
trick known to the florist business in
preparation for Easter week, and he
promises that the results will be COM
mensurate to the efforts put forth.
Special arrangements have been made
for the reception of all visitors who may
prefer to see the Easter stock in the
greenhouses during the first two days Of
this week. and all will be made welcome.
For the accommodation of evening visit
ors the greenhouses will be lighted
throughout by incandescent lights. =
Wednesday the entire stock will be re-
moved to the Glass Block, and, beginning
with Thursday, morning, will be on ex-
hibition for the rest of the week in the
nNicollet avenue show windows Of the
establishment. 1t is said that it will be
the largest exhibit Of Easter flowers ever
made in the city and it is exceptional
also in this, that every flower there will
be the product of the Donaldson green
houses. Manager Souden has chosen
Easter lilies, hydrangias and azalais for
his specialties this year. OF Easter lilies
alone the exhibit will contain more than
5000. Through exceptional niceties of the
florist art every flower has been brought
to It's final state of perfection for this
occasion. The backward ones have been
stimulated to more rapid development,
those too forward skillfully held back.

TO SUE.
Ye Sing May Fight Boycott in the
Courts.
UNION MEN ARE SATISFIED
Say Boycott Is MISUNDERSTANDING
rateurs Say It's a Good
s'Ad.,

Pickets from the cooks union, which
has declared a boycott against Chinese
rest aurants, still stand guard at the four
Chinese eating houses in Minneapolis, and
urge patrons dine and sup elsewhere.
There are two pickets at%each restaurant.
They are stationed at either side OF the
entrances, and every one who is headed
for the restaurants is presented With a
card bearing this inscription:
We, as union men, ask you to keep
away from Chinese restaurants. They are
unfair and menace to white labor.
The pickets profess to be well satisfied
with the results of the boycott up to
date. They say that public sympathy is
with them, and that they have already
discouraged many people from patronizing
the places which have aroused their an
tagonism.
The proprietors of the restaurants de-
clare that, instead of influencing the pub
lie against them, the effect OF the move
ment has been to increase business. In
evidence of this Wah Wing, proprietor of
a Washington avenue restaurant, this
morning produced bundle of the boycott
cards which customers had turned over
to him after being approached. He said
that, instead of injuring his trade, the
advertising had increased business to an
appreciate extent.
Ye Sing, proprietor of the Canton ~res-
taurant on First avenue S, believes the
action of the cooks union in posting pick
cts at his place, is actionable. He con-
suited the law firm of Keith, Evans,
Thompson & Fairchild this morning and
asked them to proceed against the union
If the law is being violated. Charles
Thompson, one of Ye Sings counsel, says
the courts have clearly decided time and
again, in similar cases, that such a course
as the cooks union is following is illegal.
A policeman tried to head off a picket
on Washington avenue this morni gn.
eff you give out another one of those
cards." said the officer, .'Ill run you in. -
/ The picket kept on distributing cards,
and-no further attempt was made to stop
him.

Stiff Sentence.


Ben Gordon who keeps junk store
at l129 Emerson avenue N, in the police
court this morning was charged with hav-
ing purchased $50 pounds Of copper wire

Holland and Martin Hellbach. The boys
were arrested yesterday for the theft OF
300 pounds of wire from the car barns OF
the Twin City Rapid Transit company at
Nicollet avenue and Thirty-first street.
The value of the stolen property was
about $50. Gordon stated that he had
purchased the wire but had no idea that
it was stolen property. The boys, how
ever, testified that Gordon had been in
the habit of buying all their stolen goods
and that, moreover, he had told them that
he would take all the copper wire that
they could bring him. The boys asserted,
moreover that he directed them where and
how they might steal ybrasses from car
journals and they say they have sold him
many Of such brasses. 49,,
The court gave Gordon $500 or ninety
days. - ..,.

THE Passion Play at oberammergau'
was the subject of an illustrated lecture
by Rev. j. M. Cleary at St. Charles
church last evening. The pictures were
views in and around Oberammergau and
portraits of the actors in thesplay. Over
GOO persons take part in the play: they
are assisted by chorus of thirty four
voices.
Father Cleary said that this representa-
ton once in every ten years was the pres
entation of the reality of the life of Christ
portrayed by a people im5ued with the
sincerest spirit of reverence.
Nowhere has the story been told so
beautifully and with such art and sim :
plicity. The people of Oberammerga are
natural actors. beginning to take part in
the great plays when children. They are
a particularly Intelligent class of country
villagers, with uns werying adherence to
the traditions of their Village and utter
disregard for the opinions Of the outside
world.

Municipal Reform.

DR.. Leavitt H. Hallock of Plymouth
Congregational church, in his sermon yes
.terday morning, on "Hosannas All the
Week." adverted to municipal affairs, He
said, in part:
Touching some things now going on in
our city, it is easy to- get up a great
meeting and shout ourselves hoarse over
that which we condemn. But bowling
condemnation into the air effects nothing.
The time to correct municipal iniquity
is when we are deciding unto whom we
will entrust the administration. The
time to correct abuses is at the time of
election. If some nonsense of party
loyalty at any price, or some personal
pull over-rides your judgment then,
you cannot make it up by shouting your
excavations in the middle Of the term.
Begin it right! Choose clean men, and
thus only can you get clean administra-
ton. You agree with me now; don't for
get it when the primaries comet
