FOURTEENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION OF HOO-HOO. Upwards of one thousand Hoo-Hoo were present at the fourteenth annual convention at Portland, Oregon, on September 9th. The Portland members "made good" and gave the visitors a splendid time. Snarkofthe Universe, C. D. Rourke, of Urbana, 111., presided at the business sessions. The delegates were wel- comed by the Mayor, the president ot the Chamber of Commerce, and others. The annual address of the Snark spoke of the great pros- perity of the Order, the concatenations of which had extended over the entire country from the Dominion of Canada to the Florida Straits. The recommendations of the Snark were that the actual expenses of the members of the Supreme Nine should be paid from the funds of the order; that the Scrivenoter's salary be in- creased to $1,; that the annual meeting be held in some other month than September; and that the distress fund be increased. The Scrivenoter's report showed a balance on hand of $7,, the largest ever reported. One hundred and twenty-five concatenations were held during the year. For number of concatenations held and men initiated, this breaks all previous records, surpassing what was regarded as probably the high water mark of last year. A comparative statement of con- catenations held and men initiated from the beginning is as follows : 1892 15 concatenations 166 men. ,893 28 concatenations 458 men. ^94 87 concatenations 1,575 men. ^95 131 concatenations 1,393 men. 1896 â ⢠⢠92 concatenations 873 men. 1897 68 concatenations 687 men. 1898 74 concatenations 756 men. 1899 85 concatenations 861 men. 1900 83 concatenations 928 men. 1901 70 concatenations 747 men. 1902 77 concatenations 1,131 men. 1903 109 concatenations 1,721 men. 1904 119 concatenations 1,920 men.
