SOUTHAMPTON. l.. L.. Aug. 3.-Thngs
here are gradually adjusting themselves
after the storm of last Sunday and
streets are being cleared OF the debris.
1t is rather mournful to see splendid
trees that added so much to the beauty
OF the town being cut up into firewood
but nothing else could be done with
them. Two fine old willow trees that
added much to the attractions of
Agawam Park. close by the lake, were
blown over.
There was held in the park to-day.
under a big marquee. the fifteenth an
nual exhibition Of the Southampton
horticultural Society. All of the pri-
vate gardens suffered much from Sun
days storm. therefore their owners
were disappointed In their exhibitions
of flowers, but those grown under glass
made up for the lack of the others. There
was fine display Of garden vegetables
and of fruit grown under glass on
private estates.
The advisory committee of the society
comprises Mines Thomas II. Barber,
