FOR IDENTIFICATION IN
PAYING POSTAL ORDERS

People who for purposes of protec-
ticn put away their money in post
office orders will be interested in the
ruling anent Identification of the
holders of such orders. The order
has been received at the Rock island
postoffice and is as follows:
"Remitters. of money orders are
sometimes also the Payees thereof,
having purchased them for protection
against the risks of loss incident to
travel. Postmasters issuing orders in
such cases should. if the remitter be-
lieves he may not readily he identified
at the Office of payment. obtain his
signature on the advice. as a means
of identification by the paying post
master. But postmasters are not there
by wholly relieved from responsibility
for improper payment in such cases.
The department invites the partic
ular attention of postmasters TO the
foregoing citation from section $50 of
the postal laws and regulations of
1902. at the suggestion of the director
of posts for the Philippine islands,
who states that. because of the neg
lect of a simple precaution, payment
of money orders issued in the United
States is delayed and the payees there
of are subjected to unnecessary trou-
BILE in securing proper Identification.
The signature of the remitter. who
is also the payee, written on the adj
vice or attached to it. is not an infal-
lible means of identification. but OBJ
viousIy is of great value as an aid TO
the paying Office, and the practice is
therefore earnestly recommended.

FraternaI Army of Loyal Ameri-
cans and Royal Circle Unite
Under One Name.
KAYE MEMBERSHIP OF $1,000
Great Saving in Expenses Will ke-
suIt From the ConsoIi-
dalton.

An Associated Press dispatch in The
Argus of Tuesday told of the CONSOLE
dalton at Springfield of the Fraternal
Army Of Loyal Americans, which has
local order here, and the Royal Cir
Gle.
This consolidation follows closely
upon the heels of number of such
consultations that have been recently
effected in the fraternaI world. Very
recently the United Moderns of Den
YER, Col, consolidated. with the Grand
Fraternity, of Philadelphia, Pa. The

solidated with the American Guild. of
Richmond Va. The Knights and La
dies of the Golden Star. of Newark,

perance Life Insurance association, of
New York City. The Fraternal Chop
pers, of Des Moines, Ia, consolidated
with the Mystic Workers. The Royal
Tribe of Joseph. of SedaIia, Mo-, con-
solidated with the Cosmopolitan; and
the Acme Fraternal Union, of Sedalia.
Mo-, united with the Fraternal Bank
ers of America, Of St. Louis.
In addition TO these consultations
numerous others have been made
within the last year. There SENS to
be realization On the part of frater-
nal societies that the smaller ones
must unite and form larger ones if
these institutions are to have the sta
bility which the membership has
right to expect.
Membership and Finances.
The Royal Circle was organized in
1896, and had a membership of 10000
with q reserve fund of about $1,000

A Night Alarm.

Worse than an alarm of fire at night
is the brassy cough of Group, which
sounds like the children's death kneIl.
and it means death unless something
is done quickly. FoIey's Honey and
Tar never fails to give instant relief
and quickly cures the worst forms of
Group. Mrs. p. L. Cordier, of Man
nington, KY, writes: MY 3-year-o1d
girl had a severe case of Group; the
doctor said she could not live. L got

81. 600 members with a reserve fund OF
more than $4,000.
The arrangements of the two socie-
ties were united and will continue as
active officers of the combined or
ganization
The name of the united organization
viii be Loyal Americans. This name
was agreed upon because it was
thought the name of Fraternal Army
of Lcyal Americans was too long and
the society had for the greater part
of its history been known and called
Loyal Americans.
The supreme officers of the Loyal
Americans are as follows:
f. J. Dunn, supreme president.
Fred d. Rugg, supreme vice presi-
dent
James Walsh, supreme secretary.
4. F. Deicken, supreme treasurer.
Don +. Minor. supreme attorney.
Edwin =. Smith, superintendent
western division.
Ira ]. Bell, superintendent eastern
division.
DIR. f. c. Gaffney, supreme medical
inspector.
DR.. Boyle Vance, supreme medical
examiner.
Changes In Constitution.
The constitution for the Fraternal
Army of Loyal Americans, with some
changes, was adopted as the consti-
tuition of the united society. One of
the principal changes made therein
was in the manner of paying the SUI
preme officers, who will hereafter be
paid stated salaries, such as are Gus
tomary among orders of the size and
strength of the united society.
The Fraternal Army of Loyal Ameri-
cans has been writing between six and
seven hundred members per month,
the Royal Circle has been writing from
two to two hundred and fifty new
members per month.
The deputy forces of both organi-
cations will continue with the com
bined society, and the management ex-
poets to be procuring 1000 or more
new members per month in a short
time.
Both societies have been doing bust
ness upon the accumuIative certificate
plan, upon rates that are almost iden-
teal. and these facts make the con-
solicitation of these two societies an
easy matter and it is of great benefit
to the members of both orders.
Saving in Expenses.
There will be great saving in the
expense, for there will be but one
management. where there has hereto
fore been two. This saving in eX-
pense will be direct benefit to each
and every member of both orders. be-
cause il will mean that the combined
order will have more of the money
collected from the members with
which to protect and pay the con-
tracts of the members as they mature.
Both these orders have made envi-
able records, and it would seem that
by combining and uniting the efforts
of the officers named above, the
growth of the united society should be
one in which each and every member
would take great pride.
The officers of the united society
will be in the Odd Fellows building,
Springfield. in the rooms SO long oc-
cupied by the Court of Honor.

A WORD ABOUT
.GOLD-MOULDED
RECORDS ~ ~

Columbia Moulded Cylinder Records
were the first moulded records on the
market by about Il year.
They always have been Gold-mould-
ed y gold mould is the only economi-
cal and efficient mould known to the
art.
Moulded records are superior to tho
old engraved records because they
may be made of harder material
Hard records last longer and have a
better quality of tone.
4 gclG-moulGed record made of soft
material would be no better in quality
than an engraved record in soft ma
terial.
The best moulded records are not
only Gold-moulded. They are super
hardened.
Gold-moulded records arc less eX-
pensive than engraved records. The
process is simpler.
Formerly, blank cylinders were
moulded, then shaved. then engraved
from an original. The originals soon
wore out under the reproducing
stylus.
Now, Il gold-lined mould is made
from the original, and the product of
that mould is a smoothly finished cyl
inder. with the sound record already
on it. The life of the original is in
creased 10 times, hundred times, 4
a thousand times.
\ record is not more expensive be-
cause it is gold-moulded.
1t is less expensive.
Columbia Moulded Cylinder Records
are new records, made by a new pro-
cess. They are not only gold-moulded.
They are super-hardened.
Irrespective of price, they are SUI
perior in quality to any other gold
moulded record on the market, and
they sell for only 25 cents.
We have just received a large ship
ment of these improved records. max
ing our stock a very complete one.

gate. We are, and have always been,

PERSONAL NOTE.

In behal of our household l desire to
thank the host of sympathizing friends
who have been so thoughtful and help
full during the many days of Mrs. Wes-
tervelt's illness and death. Everything
that human friendship could plan was
done for the suffering one. We especial
ly desire to recognize the untiring care
and diligent effort of our friend, DR..
Herbert. who brought her through so
many hours of pain during the past
five years, and thus gave her strength
to be our unfailing, CHEEKY comfort,
even when the body was unutterably
weak. We desire to thank not only the
individual friends of all the nationali-
ties, but the churches and associations
which sent their sympathy. May the
Divine Father bless and comfort every
sorrowing nome even as He has per-
mitted this grace to come to us.

OF GOLD IN
THE PHILIPPINES
OPINION OF THORINGTON CHASE
WHO ASSISTED IN COLLECTING
THE EXHIBIT FOR ST. LOUIS.

Among those who passed through on
the Sherman from the Philippines was
Thorlngton Chase of Santa Barbara,
the Philippines. He first went there
as a soldier, being mustered out after
the war, and then Joined the teaching
force in the schools established by the
United States. In addition to being a
teacher he was employed by the United
States government in collecting and
preparing the chronological and mine
rology exhibits of the archipelago for
the st. Louis exhibit In the five
years he has been there he has visited
most of the principal islands and has
gore very throughly over some of them
He says there are splendid mineral re-
sources in the Philippines which only
await development. In villages and
native houses in the mountains, he
found the people wearing large guam
titles of ornaments made out of native
gold found in their several localities.
He believes that general information
about these gold and other mineral de-
posts is being Systematically suppress
ed by the Philippine Commission in ac-
cordance with its policy of the Philip
pines for the Filipinos," and to pre-
vent a rush of Americans to the gold
fields. Chase says that there are UNI
doubtedly gold fields in the Philippines
as rich and promising as those of Cali
fornia or Alaska and where the natural
hardships and difficulties to be encoun-
tered are no greater.

MONEY REGULATORS.
American Travesty Stars Really Phi
lanthropists says Combs

When the Sierra comes in tomorrow
the American TraVesty Stars will find
a warm welcome awaiting them. Ad-
vance manager Combs will turn sailor
and go out to meet his people in the
pilot boat while on the wharf will be
awaiting the big tallyho and six for the
principals and surries for the chorus.
They will be driven around town and up
to the Hawaiian hotel where breakfast
will be served on the big lanais, that is
providing the Sierra gets in before
breakfast time as expected, after which
they will scatter over town and take
in the many beauties of Honolulu which
they are looking forward to.
There is not a member of the COM
bination but who is thoroughly
resolved to exploit Hawaii and as sal
aries are generous and the individuals
equally so Honolulu will be enriched
by the visit aside from the amusement
provided
Honestly" says Manager Combs,
'our folks are really only money cir
culators. The money comes into the
show from there into salaries and
where we only play alternate night as
in Honolulu there is not much profit
carried off. We are really phlanthro-
pists you see. We give you amuse-
ment, set your dead money in circula-
ton and then hand it back to you
through fresh channels. That may
sound like a press agents story but its
a fact all the same. Think it over"
The box office at the Orpheum open
ed this morning and the sale beats the
record. Within half an hour of PEN
ing the window there was not half
dozen seats left in the front sections.
The Saturday matinee is being rapidly
preempted as is Saturday evening at
which performances Fiddle-de- Dee will
be given.

PAPER FROM sIsAL.

Experiments which promise success
have been made in making paper from
the bagasse of sisaL The tests made
here have of course been very crude.
The resultant paper has been a grayish
white and of the consistency of blotting
paper. However three bales of the
bagasse were sent b the Nevadan to
the coast with which to make more
exact and practical experiments.
The total output of the Hawaiian
Fibre Company this year will be 200
tons of sisal. The present price is
about $3.50 a ton. The company now
has 800 acres under cultivation, having
added 200 acres recently. The bagasse
amounts to about forty-five per cent
of the total weight of the sisal leaves
cut and treated for the fibre,
