LOST HIS FALSE TEETH IN BUSY BROADWAY Man in Fur Coat Creates a Sen sation at Forty-Third Street Corner People in the vicinity of Broadway and 43d strtrt this noon were perplex ed when they saw a well-dressed man, Weighing about 350 pounds, wearing an expensive fur overcoat on his hands and knees in the middle of the uptown car track. Patrolman Patrick McDonald el bowed his way through the crowd and grabbing the man by the shoulder, ask ed what was the matter with him. The man got up and, pointing to his mouth, mattered : _i a semi-intelligible manner that he had lost his false teeth. He ■aid he believed they were iost in the slot of the car track. Search by po licemen, chauffeurs, bystanders, motor men and conductors failed to reveal the missing piece, and with great dis gust the unknown man hailed a pass ing taxi. His breadth being bigger than the entrance of the taxi, he final ly secured a large limousine and de parted, giving instructions to drive anywhere north.—N. Y. Eve. World. 2-17-19.

M. C. A. rooms. Fri day and Saturday, June 6 and 7, is going to be a fragrant and color ful success, for the rose-gardens of this city will be robbed of their choisest blooms to mkae it so—at least, so the entry cards indicate. One rose enthusiast, who has 'a large rose garden near Middletown, will have entries in many classes, und as he has the reputation of having the finest roses in his locality, the city exhibitors will have to look to their laurels. The visitor to the Rose Show will be greeted by all the old favorites and many of the new roses that are just making their debut before the public —in fact,' some of them as yet un named. Every color will be repre sented, from the pure white of the Frau Karl Druschki, the delicate pink of the Lady Gay, the lovely yel low of Mrs. Aaron Ward, to the deep red of General Jacqueminot. The public have been invited to send flowers other than roses for display purposes, which will add greatly to the attractiveness of the show. The florists displays will also be a note worthy feature.
