The ID. 4. II. Constitution.
Washington Star.

The constitution Of the Daughters of the
American Revolution is OF about the length
OF the Constitution of the United States
and the bylaws are twice as long but IL is
much easier 10 amend them than IL is to
effect changes in the national document
Amendments have TO be proposed in writing
and submitted 10 one congress to be
thought over and discussed for a year and
submitted 10 the vote OF the next congress
The congress that does the voting will nor
have score of delegates who were voters
at the previous congress. but that makes
no sort of difference.
There are seventeen amendments to the
constitution and five 10 the bylaws TO be-
acted upon at the coming congress. and the
two Instruments are only about three wears
old, having been adopted after several DAYS
OF full and free discussion in 1899

The position OF messenger at the Brit

and is now, for the first time, held by
n colored man. 1t Is usually given to
retired soldiers who have proved their
loyalty to the Crown. This qualiica.
ton Is deemed essential because of the
responsibility of the position. All State
papers, secret reports and private docu
ments are given to the messenger and
he is held responsible for their safe
delivery upon British vessel either
Mt New York or at some Canadian
port. Richard Donaldson, now de-
ceased, was the last messenger. lie

Army in India, and was appointed mes.

loyalty to the British Government.
The messengers job can be termed
n sinecure. Once week, or perhaps,
twice or three times week, he goes
to New York, carrying the outgoing
mail and returning with that brought
over on the English vessel. This Is
the extent Of his labors. He is, how.
ever. held strictly accountable for the
safe delivery of the papers. When an
English vessel is scheduled TO arrive
he must be on hand with his mail
and turn 1t over to the purser OF the
vessel, obtaining a receipt therefor.
Then he Is given the mail for the
Ambassador and Secretaries. for which

his possession until 1t is placed in the

Tried Suicide By Small Pox.

There is most peculiar story going

know. 1t is that of young girl who

Neckwear for Spring.

In the stock-coilar proper there is
pothing new or striking. They are the
same plain collars that have been worn
for seasons and seasons, and will con-

The double effect stock, with metal

Persian effects for neckwear are quite
passs, and much lighter, more delicate
touches prevail.
Heavy materials are decidedly out of
favor for neckwear. Satin is very little
seen, the same sheeny effect without
the weight is secured by using liberty,
mousseline or similar materials.
