month of August last the HERALD pointed
out the probability of approaching cold
weather during the fall and early winter
,and it came on time and great deal of it,.
The average temperature for the past
month has been only $3.50, while the aver
age for October last year was "a s., differ.

owing to the wonderfully

1t is refreshing to note in
the midst of the boom in

people homestead lots at
about one-third the price
charged by others, but also
performs all its promises to

lights and extending the i'm
provements of our city to its
farthest legitimate bounds.
The maps of the Howes Tract will NOT
be ready for some days; but in the mean
time all will be hustle and activity on
this beautiful property; surveyors will
be laying off the streets and avenues,
builders will be placing houses and
pushing forward at once all the improve
ments promised, and the Tract now al
most all covered with vines, orange trees
and splendid foliage, will put on met
ropolitan look and keep up with its
beautiful surroundings of costly build
ings and cottage residences.
The Howes Tract fronts on Jefferson
street, west of Vermont avenue. The
location is very popular one, in the di-
rect line of the city's rapid growth, and
will soon be reached by lines of street
railroad and the Motor Road on the
west.
1t was not intended to open the books
for this fine property until the fifth of

master.
COLUMBUS, o, February l5.-Consider-
able has been said about the letter of Sen.
ator Sherman to Dewitt C. Jones, the new.
ly appointed postmaster at Columbus, who
now awaits confirmation by the Senate
The letter was furnished by Gov. Foraker
for publication to-day, and is as follows:
SENATE CHAMBER,
WAsHINGTGN, D. c., Feb. IL, 1885. !
DEAR SIR: Your note of the 18th ult.
was received. 1t was not answered sooner
on account Of the uncertainty as to the
time Of reaching your case. l do not
think there is any serious opposition
to your confirmation, but information
has been given the committee that
you intend to make clean sweep of all
minor offices and that your office really fell
under the Civil Service law, which requires
upon examination. The
feeling created that you will make indis,
criminste removals without regard to law,
has delayed and may still longer delay
you confirmation / am quite
snse---- that while yoa- would
seek Democrats to fill most of
your Offices in time. Legal discrimination
in favor of Union soldiers and you natural
desire. to have competent men in Office
will induce you to obey the law in this re-
spect and protect yourself from blame by
observing its provisions.
Very truly You're,
JOHN SHERMAN.
