IDENTIFICATION NECESSARY
Receivers of Money Orders Must Be Well
Known in the Future.

Postmaster Greene yesterday re-
ceived copies of House bill II, 6S3, which
contains the estimates and regulations
for the post office department for the
current year. The bill has just passed
the House and is likely to meet with
no opposition in the Senate. There are
no distinctively new features from 9TH
vision in regard to the issue of money
orders. If the bill becomes q law in
it's present form, postmasters will not
be allowed on and after April 1st to
issue money orders made payable
without Identification.
1t has been the custom for some time
where q merchant was we'll known to
allow him to forward money by this
means, payable to his agents or drum
mers in a distant city without identifi-
cation. In many instances it would be
exceedingly difficult to find friends who
would be willing to identify the re-
ceiver of the order and in some cases
almost impossible. Postmasters have
considered that If the sender was will
ing to run the risk Of the money reach
ing its proper destination, the de-
partment was only fair in allowing
them to use that prerogative.
Postmaster Greene cannot see the
object of the provision and thinks it
must have been an oversight in the
drafting of the bill. During q series
of years he has received but two com
plants of money that has been paid
to the wrong persons by the local office.
He says that the result of this order
will be that merchants who have been
allowed this privilege will at once
transfer their money order business to
the express companies.

In Many Conversions to Religious Life.
The revival services which have been
going on in the Lincoln Square Baptist
Church for the last ten days, under the
leadership of DR.. L. NJ. S. Haynes,
were concluded last evening. The last
meeting of the series was character
lied by the securing of seven new con-
verts.
The total number of converts for the
series numbers close upon 100. Rev. F..
d. Penney has list Of SO names of
persons who have professed CONVEX
sion, and in addition to these he feels
positive that there must have been
many who neglected to place them
selves upon record as being converts.

meeting at which the converts will re-
late their experiences and be voted
upon as church members Sunday the
church will reap the fruits of the re-
VlVaI and formally baptiZe into the

OPENING DELAYED.
Dread Institute is Not Quite Ready for It:
Students.

Students.
The first term of the Dread Institute
that was to have opened yesterday af-
ternoon will not begin until the 9Th cf
February. The delay is a very vexatious
one TO the managers of the new insti-
tuition, who had hoped to see the work
OF the school in running order by the
last of the week
The cause of the postponement is the
failure of some of the contractors, who
We're to provide the supplies and fur
nishings for the building, to provide the
goods within the spscifed time. The
materials that We're to have been de-
liVefed this week have not arrived and
Will not do so fer week or two more.
AS the result of the delay it was nee
essary 10 notify the students who had
expected to come to the school for the
opening Yesterday that the time had
been postponed. The governor of every
state in the Union was telegraphed to
informing him of the delay and ask
Ing that the students selected to enjoy
tie free scholarship from his state be
not sent on until further notice.
The dispatches to the governors ar
rived in time to stop the departure of
all the students with one exception,
Miss Sallie MaXey, who was appointed
recently by C. M. Barnes, territorial
governor of oklahoma, and who started
from her nome for this city before word
OF the postponement arrived.
1t is hoped that the school will be able
to open on the date now set. In order
to acquaint the public with the aims
and object of the new institute, it has
been determined to give a public recep-
ton To the people of the city next
Tuesday from 8 to o'clock in the after
noon and from 10 10 o'clock in the ev-
eBing Guests at that time will be
shown over the entire building and the
proposed work of the school will be
fully explained. The reception will only
he held in the event of the day being a
pleasant one.

Northern India and the island of
Banquey can certainly claim to have
the most peculiar marriage rites of any
country. In the former, COW and a
calf are invariably required at the
marriage. The animals are driven into

A Creole Girls Wedding.

For three consecutive Sundays be-
fore the wedding the banns are read In
the parish church. The invitations
sent out are sometimes engraved upon
a large folded sheet of paper. On one
page the father and mother of the.
groom invite their friends to assist at
the nuptial mass OF their son; on the
opposite page the parents of the bride.
extend the same courtesy to their"
friends on behalf of their daughter.
Ordinarily, however, the cards are in.
the conventional form. The hour
chosen is usually o'clock in the after
noon. A musical chime rings the hour
as the bride reaches the cathedral.
The organ within breaks suddenly In
to a wedding march. The old beadle,
wearing Il scarlet coat and cooked hat,
precedes the bridal pair up the aisle.
The groonsmen follow, and then the.
bridesmaids, the maid of honor, and
the tiny tlower-girl; finally the bride,
pale and lovely, on her fathers arm.
