DOUBLE POSTAL CARD.
You May Now Write Friend and
Lend Him Means of Replying.

The new return postal card, the de-
sign of which was so lately approved
by Postmasteral-G General Wanamaker,
is out. There are two forms oil the
card, one for domestic and the other
for the international postal union SER
vice.
The double card, as it appears upon
purchase, consists on the face of the
message card, which is much similar
to an ordinary postal, above which is
the back or reverse side of the return
card, separated from the former half
by a slight line of perforation so that
upon bending the half twill not easily
become detached.
The message card is 81 inches wide
by O. inches long. AT the top of the
card to Che left of the vignette of Gen
eral Grant, in the right-hand corner,
are engraved with black ink in three
lines one above the other the words,
"Postal Card With Paid Reply"
"United States of America" and lin
small type, "This side is for the ad-
dress only" Inscribed around the
top of the vignette of General Grant
is the legend. "Message Card" and
below, ''One Cent"
In the lower left-hand corner are
the words: 'Detach annexed card for
answer" The face of the return card
is similar to the message card, save the
words "Reply Postal Card" are substi-
tuted for "Postal Card With Paid Re-
ply" The price of the card is cents.
The international card is somewhat
smaller than that for domestic use, but
is like it in arrangement and all essen
tial particulars, save that liberty
head with the legend, 1.-TWO Cents" is
substituted for General Grants Wig
nette.

Resolutions of Respect.

To the Worshipful Master, WOrdens
and Brethren of Texarkana Lodge,
No. 341, f. & A. M. Brethren
We, your committee appointed to
draft suitable resolutions concerning
our deceased brother and Senior
Warden, u. T. Few, whose death oc-
Cured on the 9th day of November,
A. d. 1892, A. j. 1892, beg leave to re-
port the following
Whereas, The solem admonition
that, "In the midst Of life we are in
death" is impressed upon our hearts
with the stamp of sorrow, and we are
again reminded that the Supreme
Architect of the universe has, with
the compasses of time, circumscribed
our lives with the river of death; and,
Whereas, Brother H. T.. Few, our
beloved and faithful Senior Warden,
has crossed over that river, and our
Lodge, by his untimely death has sus-
tanned an irreparable loss; therefore,
Resolved, That, as a man and cit
izen brother, Y. r. Fews life is worthy
of emulation; as q civil officer, his re-
cord is without blemish; as hus-
band and father, he was loving and
devoted; as friend, he was consider
ate, faithful and true; and as a Mason,
his charity, friendship and brotherly
love shone forth with resplen ant and
peculiar beauty.
Resolved, That, as the Senior War
den of this Lodge, his long and faith
f1l services were rendered with that
freedom, fervency and zeal that is wor-
thy of imitation; that, though his last
sun has set and his gavel lies silent at
his station, he has paid the craft their
wages-every farthing that was due
them from him, and, unlike his proto-
type, of whom his untimely death re-
minds us, he has left designs on the
trestle board whereby the craft may
pursue their labors.
Resolved, That we extend our
heartfelt sympathy to the boreaved
family Of our deceased brother and
assure them Of our closer friendship.
Resolved, That the jewels of oul
lodge be draped in mourning, that the
members wear the usual badge OF
mourning for thirty days, and that the
gavel so long and so worthily welded
by our deceased Senior Warden be
draped in mourning and labeled with
suitable dedication and placed in the
archives of our Lodge as sacred
mcmento.
Resolved, That these resolutions
be spread on the minutes Of oui
Lodge, that cow Of them, together
with copy Of the Masonic record o.
our deceased brother be sent to hif
family, and that page in our record
book be set apart and suitably III

The almost universal prevalence of
farce comedies, musical comedies,
comic operas, burlesques and all of the
various other cxponents OF horse-play
and nonsense, instead Of violating the
taste of the theatre-going public, has
only sharpened its appetite for the
keener enjoyment Of plays that appeal
to the intellectual as well as the ma
terial side Of human nature. Realiz-
ing this, it is relief to announce the
early coming of Mr.. Clay Clement, a
rising young tragedian who is just
now commanding considerable atten-
tion, both for his natural attainments
and for the subtlety of his art. VIII
