The Times-Republican takes ex-
captions to the article in these
columns relative to the treatment the
Oskaloosa people received at their
hands. The HERALD only reflected
the sentiment expressed by a number
in attendance, and has no disposition
to m"isrepresent the little village up
the line of the Iowa Central. The
T.mes-Republican, among other
things says:
"The story is a most inexcusable
one, as the gentlemen who were
present from Oskaloosa will readily
admit. Those who went home the
evening before the match was finish
ed probably inspired the article, and
the newspaper, eager to take a slap
at Marshalltown, fell easily into the
blunder. Marshalltown was charit-
able enough not to think that they
represented the Gun Club of Oska-
loosa, and it is particularly unfortu-
nate that the Oskaloosa paper did
not have sense enough to do likewise.
The fact of the matter is that Mr.
Hoover is a member of the Marshall
town Gun Club and has about as
many friends here as in his home
town. He is a gentleman of the first
order, and many of his friends just
like him came along, but there were
others. Mr.. Hoover and his true
friends stated freely that they were
pleased with the treatment they re-
ceived, even more, that they were
satisfied with the decision to which
one Oskaloosa man had objected. Of
course the defeat on SO small a mar
gin and the loss of SO much money
was disappointing, but Oskaloosa's
true sports can bet and lose like
gentlemen. They did not whimper,''
Rev. James B. Tins, of Alickchi,
Checotah Nation, l. T., says Of Beggs'
Blood Purifier, the great blood remedy
and system regeneration: Both myself
and wife were entirely cured of bad cases
of scrofula by it," A guaranteed rem
edy, of sterling merit. All druggists.

HOSPITAL MEETING.
Woman's Club Discusses Ways
and Means.

There was an open meeting of the
Woman's club Saturday afternoon
under the management of the depart
ment of philanthropy for the benefit
of the Oskaloosa hospital. This de-
partment has undertaken to get a
hospital for the city of Oskaloosa,
aud the fund for the same was start
ed Saturday with the admissions that
were paid at the door.
The meeting was heldin the Baptist
church at 3 O'Clock and there was not
as large an attendance as the ladies
had hoped to have on account of the
very cold weather that prevailed.
The arrangement of the program was
interfered with to some extent on ac-
count of the enforced absence Of some
OF the physicians who were to speak.
The meeting was very. interesting
however, and the pi q for a hospital
in the city of oskalo a is now fairly
started.
The program began with a solo by
Mrs, Q, d. Cowgirl accompanied by
Mrs. G. E. Lofand. Mrs. F. d. Reid
then stated the object of the meeting
and was followed by DIR. Cole who
talked of the Necessities and Posi-
bilities Of a Hospital in the City of
Oskaloosa." The gentleman also dis
cussed the location and the probable
cost of the institution.
Talks were heard from Drs. H. G..
Parry, L. A. Rogers, A. T. Coveney
and Harry Carver. The gentlemen
were heartily in sympathy with the
movement and pledged their support
and assistance TO the ladies.
The plans of the ladies are not yet
well matured, but there is work being
done toward the securing of a build
ing for hospital purposes and there
will be more to say of the plan later.

LOCKETT'S VICTORY.
Gen. Otis Gables Details of His Re-
cent Battle.

Washington, Dec. 80. - The adju-
tant general received a cable message
from Gen. Otis Friday morning telling
of the capture of a mountain strong
hold beyond Mont Alban, northeast
of San Mateo, formerly supposed to
be impregnable, and the capture of
many prisoners and a large quantity
of arms and ammunition. The dis
patch is as follows:
Manila, Dec. 29.-Adjutant General,
War Department., Washington: Col. Lock
EFT, with regiment, two battalions Forty
sixth (Col. ~Schuyler); one Forty-1fth Col.
Dorst), and company Twenty-seventh in

tackled enemy 600 strong IN mountain
stronghold beyond Mont Alban, north
east San Mateo. Large lumber killed
and wounded; "a taken prisoners.

900 round ammunition, $50 pounds powder,
arsenal Notifications, all food supplies, and
considerable other property. This cap
tured point located on mountain trail,

Our casualties: Lielt. Enslow, Eleventh

Seek "ReasonabIe" Terms of Peace.
New York, Dec. 80. - A special to
the journal and Advertiser, from
Philadelphia, says:
eff President Mckinley will decide on
anything like reasonable terms for the
surrender of Aguinaldo and the Filipinos
under him, and will inform the Filipino
congress, through us, it's representatives
in this country, the Filipinos will lay down
their arms within the next month or two
and the war will end"
Jessup Luigi I. De Fernandez, who
claims to be one of the three special
representatives of Agoncillo and the
Filipino congress, made this state
ment as he was about to take the
train for New York.
Fernandez, with two others-Lucio
Lem Lejera and Juliet Franciscus
~Lopez-were appointed at "a meeting
of the Filipino congress as special rep
resentatives to come to this country,
and, if possible, have a personal inter-
view with President Mckinley.
Their mission is principally to as
certain from the president his views
regarding the war in the Philippines,
and, if possible, to learn from him if
he is DESTROYS of allowing Aguinaldo
to surrender on certain terms that he
will offer.
While in Washington the three rep
resentatives are to make a canvass of
the senate and house of representa-
tives with the object of learning each
members attitude toward the admin
istration and the Filipino war.
Ordered to Manila,
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 30.-Maj. Hammer,
chief paymaster of the Department of
the Missouri, received Geographic or
ders from Washington to proceed to
Manila and report to the commanding
general of the department for duty.
The major only lacks two years of the
retiring age, and the order for this
reason came as a surprise, as heretofore
officers of hat age have not generally
been ordered to the Philippines. He
expects to sail from Seattle January s.
