IFrom Fridays Daily.]
A matter was decided last evening
which will doubtless do a great deal
toward the advancement OF the bust
ness and manufacturing interests OF
the city. 1t was the permanent organ
ization of the Commercial association
of Ottumwa, the institution formed for
the purpose of advancing, and pro-
noting and fostering the business in
terests OF the city, and from the at
tendance at the meeting last evening
and the enthusiasm displayed, there
is no question that the objects of the
organization will be successfully
achieved. The gathering was called
by T. d. Foster. who was appointed
temporary president at meeting held
some time ago. and was called to per-
feet permanent organization. At the
prior meeting it was decided that the
organization would remain temporary
until LIS members had been secured
This number was secured by the sub
scription committees which had been
at work and the minimum number of
ITS was found to have been exceeded
by a good number. The association
has now been permanently or
ganized and starts out with every pros
pect OF proving the success which has
been predicted Of it.
Officers Elected.
The meeting was called to order
shortly after o'clock with T. d. Eos
ter, the permanent president in the
chair, and J. w. Mitchell as secretary
The constitution and bylaws were
read before the meeting. The election
of permanent officers was then taken
up and the association was placed on a
firm business footing. On the first in
formal ballot for president T. d. Foster
received almost an unanimous vote
Mr. Foster, however, declined the posi-
ton stating that his business interests
would not permit him to give the
association the time which the posi-
/ ton of president would render neces
/ sary. Senator s. H. Harper was cleo
ted to the position on the first forma
/ ballot. Mr.. Foster was then elected
vice-president. and l.. E. Stevens
| treasurer.

the other way; but the more you see of him-and have chatted with him some seven or eight times during the present year-the more you like him. After each conversation your opinion of him improves. You quickly discover the fact, that he views with broad humani- ty the motives and acts of the men who made him curse the hour of his birth a thousand times.
 He acknowledged to me the other day that his natural inborn reserve had made him many enemies
 Until met my wife" he once said to me. T never cared for the society of anybody. It was wrong, but never knew it until it was too late. I sought no friends and acquaintances because had not that inclination and because my ambition to succeed made me careful of my time. The hours devoted to friendly intercourse would be better spent in study, I thought. When joined the general staff, for instance, I made not q single call-just sent my card to superb ors and comrades alike. It made bad blood; they thought me uneivl."
 Dreyfus admits, without shadow of hesitation, that many features of his case are unexplained to this day. Hehas many sincere friends who visit him fre- quently. Zola was a regular visitor to his house. Thus the ex-prisoner of Devils Island spends his. time, happy in the, confidence and love of his wife and children. With the exception of the po-a for fr;n 1e, tar, e. knows of his whereabouts.
 If Paris knew that the author of that historial> and startling book. Five. Years of My Life" in which the writer tells of. his sufferings during his five years banishment, was walking it's streets like an ordinary citizen, it would go into convulsions. But Dreyfus- nor his most intimate friends. for that mat ter--is not likely to satisfy it's curiosity by making himself known. Tit-Bits.

HOW CAPTAIN DREYFUs LIVES.
He is Taking It Easy and is Living
 Quietly in the Suburbs of Paris.

He is Taking It Easy and is Living
 Quietly in the Suburbs of Paris.
 It is generally known that Captain Alfred Dreyfus is living quiet and re- tired life in cozy little suburban house in Paris. Every day he may be seen on the streets of Paris, in the Louvre and the great libraries, yet no one reco- gnizes him because they do not know him. Curiously enough, he wears no disguise. He has frequently brushed elbows with his greatest enemies Not many days ago, for instance. an officer who gave evidence against him at the famous Rennes trial begged his par don when stepping out of tramcar, unconscious of the personality he was addressing.
 These facts were told to the writer by a gentleman, a great personal friend of the much condemned man, who pointed out the house occupied by the famous prisoner of Devils Island as we passed downa quiet suburban thorough fare of the worlds gayest city. He had an interview with Dreyfus that very week. He found hin writing at his desk as unconcernedly as 8 retired banker, determined to take life easy.
 He explained that he accepted the pardon, which many declare he should not have done, at the sole advice of his friends, and on the understanding that he could appeal against the deci- sion. This chance has gone, now that the president has proclaimed an amnes- ty for all concerned.
 Dreyfus;' continued my friend, is not sympathetic man at first sight--rather

particularly unfortunate one. Some
years ago the younger children of the
family were sent to the orphanage at

care for them. This left the oldest, a
boy. who was able to earn his own
living, but the boy was never bright
and his intellect becoming more de-
pressed gradually. he was about year
ago sent to the Home for Feeble Minded
at Chippewa Falls. Shortly after his
commitment 10 that institution the
father was one morning found
dead IN his home in the north
ern part Of the city where be
lived alone, his death being attributed
to heart failure There IS an old saw
and true one that s.misfortunes never
comes singiy7 and its truthfulness has
been fally demonstrated in the history
of this family. Fate in its workings
has deal. heavily with its merAbers
but such are the uncomfortable 4ise.t-
-res Of this life.
