BUFFALO. 



I was bragging about thp beautiful 

 winter two weeks ago and it was coi- 

 loborated by one weather sargent, who 

 in his report of .January said: "The 

 month was eliarniing.'' But. oh my. we 

 ha\e been paying up for it since witli 

 large interest. We have just passed 

 through aliout as tough a ten days as I 

 ean remember of late. A GO-mile gale 

 all night and the thermometer zeio and 

 below will nuike you wish for spring, 

 even if it is hurrying you on to "thai 

 bourne from whieh no traveler returns." 



But we are all alive and some of us 

 «re going to venture as far as Indian- 

 apolis. I <-an"t say how numy, but »e 

 have strong hojjcs of W. J. Palmer. 

 Charles Guonther, Prof. Cowell, \V. .■<. 

 and sort, Kasting sure, and perhaps an 

 other. There is bound to be a line con 

 vention in that beautiful eity of thr 

 middle west. E. U. Hill .said "at Pitt- 

 burg s<mie years ago that Indi:inapolis 

 was not west but a very good place to 

 stop off as you were going west. So 

 we are going to take his adviee this 

 time. Our olub meets Wednesday niglil 

 to decide on hour of de|)arture! route, 

 etc.. but there is not nnu-h choice of 

 route with us as all we have to do is 

 to get aboard of a car of the grand, 

 smooth Lake Shore Railroad and in 

 twelve hours it will land us in the con 

 vention (dty. The \ew 'SOrk delegates 

 may. 1 suppose, choose to climb the west- 

 ern portion of the Appalachian moun- 

 tains, but if they choose to conu' this 

 civilized route they might let us know 

 so that we could have the honor ami 

 pleasure of their company. 



Business can be called decidcillv quiet 

 but with no stock going to waste.- Im- 

 possible for a great (luantity of (lowers 

 to be pro<luced in (he '•atmospheric con 

 ditions'' of the past two weeks.
