commission business, and had ware
room and Office on the lots now occu-
pied by the Harry Bowen Commercial
Restaurant. He did an enormous bust
ness and was a large shipper. This
was in the latter half of the seventies.
In 1880 when the Iowa Legion of Hon.
or was instituted in this city Mr.. Tuck
er was one of the charter members
and he has retained his membership in

HAD A FINE TIME.
The Picture Preambulators Meet q
Good Friend.

Editor Herald:
mid pleasures and palaces
Though we may roam,
Be it ever so humble
There's no place like home"
But the next thing to it is the home
Of an old friend, that you have unex-
pectedly run across in your wandering.
Last Sunday is day long to be re-
membered by the Oskaloosa picture
men that are working in South Da-
kota. Some time last week, Mr.. Cor
don, while canvassing through the
country run onto Mr.. John Hunter,
brother Of DR.. Hunter of this city, who
insisted that Mr.. Gordon should bring
"his boys" out and spend Sunday.
After a pleasant drive of ten miles
we arrived at the Hunter home, and
after the handshaking and caring for
the horses we turned ourselves loose
for good time.
The principal features of the day
were eating, visiting, cracking jokes,
and having a good, sociable time in
general.
Did we do justice to that dinner? At
ter travelling around for nine weeks
among the European populace of this
region, being clessed with the "hobos, /"
"dagos" and buns" sleeping in barns
haystacks or any old place, and being
feu on "bucksldn bread" brown cheese
and alkali coffee, we were certainly in
good condition to enjoy a good meal
The dinner was not served in half
a dozen courses, with just enough In a
course to make one hungry, but con-
sisted Of fried chicken, fruit salad, po-
tatoes, fruit, pie and other things too
numerous to mention, set right in the
middle Of the table where we could
help ourselves. We all ate till we
could eat no more, then loosened our
belts, stretched and went at 1t again.
After dinner Mr.. Hunter entertained
us with some excellent music till our
dinners settled, then served water
melon and wound up with ice cream
and cake.
Those in attendance were Mr.. and
Mrs. F. e. Gordon and daughter Fran
ces, e. B. Wilcox, Geo. Wilcox, Her
bert Bellemy, M. z. Rees. v. p. Finley,
P. s. Bowls and N. X. Williams.
After saying farewell we gave three
cheers for Mr.. and Mrs. Hunter, and
voted unanimously that they were the
best hosts we had met IN Minnesota
or either of the Dakotas.
Respectfully.
N. X. Williams.

AS OTHERS SEE US.
Our Neiehbor Tells of Visit to Our
New Home.

Oskaloosa Times: The Herald has
been moving into its new quarters this
week, and though the boys growl lit
tie over the delights of the job, they
certainly have every reason to be
pleased with a fitting that is so much
to their benefit. A Times representa-
tive dropped into their new quarters
Monday afternoon and examined ev-
erything. The business Office is at 1913
North Market street and is beautiful
room; the full size of the room form
erly occupied by the Malone bicycle
shop. In front is the cashiers desk
and to the rear special tables for the
managing editor and the two report
ers. At the extreme end of the room,
short fight of steps leads up to the
composing room, and another beside
this down to the press room.
The composing room is larger than
the office, and is we'll lighted by win
dows on north and west and by sky
light in front. This last device secures
light for the back of the office. AS
you enter the editors desk is at the
left
On the north near the windows are
news cases, and in the extreme north
west corner is the linotype. This is a
new machine which the Hoffman,
Bros. have just put in and which is
perfect in every respect, having all the
latest improvements. 1t is presided
over by Chris Porter to whose cour-
tesy for demonstration of its work the
writer is indebted.
The press room is Immediately be-
low the composing room, convenient
elevator carries the forms down. In
this room are the job cases, job stones
and the presses all arranged in a way
to secure the best possible light and
the greatest convenience. East of this
and under the business office Is stock
room, and fire proof vault for the
files.
The heating apparatus is under the
side walk and is approached by door
from the press room. It is the Seev-
ers system that they have put in, con-
sidered one of the best in use.
All in all the Hoffman, Bros. have
now one of the most convenient and
up to date Offices in this part of the
state, and the Times Is glad to see the
industry, perseverance and courage Of
the firm thus rewarded.

MAKING MONEY.
M. E. Rice Profits by Newspaper
Advertising.

NJ E. Rice who was here the other
day arranging for the appearance of
the Two Merry Tramps' at the Ma
sonic in the near future, is great be-
lever in newspaper advertising. He
is known in the theatrical business as
successful manager. He is not gov
erned by any set rule, but changes his
mode of doing business as the times,
communities and conditions seem to
warrant and suggest. Over year ago
he became imbued with the opinion
that newspaper advertising was a fac
tor which could increase the interest
in his attractions. After study, and
consultation with advertising men, Mr..
Rice decided upon his present plan of
advertising. He began this at the OPP
ening of the season last fall and pur-
sued the same plan for the whole the
atrical season. He has made a series
of cuts of different scenes of his en-
tertainment. There are twenty OF
these cuts and his advertising starts
twenty days before the appearance of
his show in the city. He picks out the
best local paper, makes arrangements
for the insertion of the cuts, which are
changed every day and the result has
been wonderful. During the past sea-
son Mr.. Rice says that he has invest
ed nearly $4,000 in newspaper adver-
Using alone for his attraction, being
nearly double the amount expended in
the same time by any other company
in America. AS a result of this effort
the 1.-TWO Merry Tramps" netted pro-
fit last season of nearly $4,000. This
is twice as much as this company had
ever cleared before. The company is
now on the road again and the same
plan of advertising will be carried out
this year except that it will begin two
or three days earlier than last year.
The business this year has been phe-
nomenal and people have been turned
away at many performances.
Mr.. Rice says the earnings of the
''tramps" have been invested in Hunt
ington, West Virginia, where he has
purchased very fine theatre.

ton, but unless the one who owns the
proposition tells them about it, they
never find it out.
The series of cuts that Mr.. Rice has
for this years advertising are now
running in the Herald and new one
will appear each day until the show
gets here.

FAST DRIVING.
Causes a Bad Smash Up Near the
Green House.

Aserious accident resulted Sunday
evening from fast driving in the vicin-
ity of the camp meeting grounds east
of the city. The chief participants in
the affair were Fred Swearingen, Bon
Coffin and Emmett Bowman, and girl
whose name could not be ascertained.
The rig belonged to ]. H. Wroughton,
COS 4th avenue east.
Fred Wroughton, who works at the
Oskaloosa Steam Laundry, took the
buggy out to the camp grounds and
tied the horse to one Of the posts in
the vicinity. He went up into the
grounds and while he was gone the
other boys came along with the girl
and recognized the rig. They thought
to have little joke on Fred, so the
horse was united and they all started
for town. When they were few yards
west of the Pickett property and going
at pretty good gait hack also bound
for uptown got in the road and in try
ing to pass it they ran into another rig
which was trying to get out of the
crush. The buggy was splintered, the
shafts broken and nearly everything
breakable about it was broken. The
occupants were thrown over against
the iron railing at the Kemble place
and sustained considerable injury.
Swearingen was bruised about the
face and the others were pretty badly
jolted up. The horse stopped immedi-
ately and thus saved further accident.
Wroughton did not know anything
about the accident until he came to
look for his buggy and not finding it
he started towards home He soon
heard of the runaway and found the
ruins of his vehicle The horse was
taken on to the barn and the buggy
left in the road.
