Herald Correspondents.

To HERALD WRITERs:-What do
the correspondents of the HERALD
association think of the annual meet
ing for this year2 Shall we have 1t
on Thursday, September Sat the Fair
Grounds, or shall we meet this year
on some Saturday in Oskaloosa, at
such place as the members with the
editors may elect? My objection to
the meeting at the Fair Grounds is
that SO many of US fail in getting there
and to meet at or p. m. is always
just as the big excitement of the af-
ternoon program Is going on and tits
hard to hold the members Of the as
ISOLATION together long enough to
transact business, much less to get
acquainted and have the fuIl benefit
of such g meeting that we should
have. Now desire every member OF
our association to express themselves
fully on this question through the
paper. Give your opinion as to the
time and place for holding the meet
ing. We would like to have good
mesting this year and have every re-
porter present 50 as 70 get better ac-

Stewart Buried.

The body Of William Stewart, the
old gentleman who was killed in a
runaway accident near Bellefoun-
tain Saturday night, was inferred
Monday afternoon at four O'Clock in
Forest Cemetery.
None of the relatives could be
found up to the time of the funeral,
and the condition of the body would
not permit of burial being longer de-
layed. Coroner Eugene Cheesman
made every effort to discover the
names and residence of any possible
living relatives, but none could be
found. The postmaster of Tracey
was telephoned in regard to the
mans mail and he stated that Stew
art had never received a letter with
in the time he had been coming to
the Tracey Office. He received one
paper and that came weekly.
The man had quite little proper
ty in the way of chattels and stock
and the sale of them would net quite
