TO the Episcopal diocesan convention,
is postmaster at osaSaloosa, senior
member of the firm OF the Oslkaloosa
Herald Co., publishers of the Oskaloo-
sa Herald, ami one of Major Lacey's
lchiefest of friends and counsellors.
Mr.. Hofrmann Is reputed to be the
most modest a1d retiring newspaper
publisher in the state. and when the
excellence of the Herald is taken into
account, there may be found no rea-
son or excuse whatever for mis- dis
position. He has earned the right TO
be "chesty." Oskaloosa is a thriving
city which has grown in spite ofsome
great disadvantages. and nothing has
contributed more to its growth than
the Herald, and no one has put more
of energy and brain and purpose into
the Herald tnaa, Mr.. Hoffman,.

Keokuk Gate-City: From the re-
ports sent out from OslSaloosa, the
Gate City had been led to believe that
the papers and discussions at the BIZ
ennial were of the highest order Of
merit a1d the whole affair pronounc-
ed success in every respect. Mrs.
Mitchell would have us believe that
dress was the predominant feature
aad that brains were at discount.
Should this indictment hold it is
foregone conclusion that the usefui-
-. os .ho fadaratiOn &c n reaoos1iZ-
ed and valuable means of intellectual
advancement and potent agency for
sociological and other reforms Is
nearing an end. With t1e high aims
and well-known earnestness of Iowa
club women in view it does not seen
at all probable that this should be
the case. The Gate City and otners
doubtless would be glad to receive
further information on the subject.
The president of the Keokuk Wo-
mans club was a delegate and at
tended all the sessions of the conVeu-
ton. Her testimony on the subject
would be interesting, informing and
conclusive.

The wind apparently started in the mountains and swept along the coast.
 Numerous houses were blown down and roofs of laborers jacales lifted up and hurled with great violence against other structures or into the fields. The Santa Lucrecia, San Juan and Elmenor haciendas are among the heaviest los CTS. Several buildings were destroyed on the plantation of the Condo Broth CTS, French millionaires.
