Subscribers Take Notice.

On and after November 1st, 1904,
the subscription price of The Lexing-
ton Advertiser will be restored to its
former rate: $l.50 per year, 80 cents
for six months and 40 cents for three
months, payable in advance.
This step becomes n cessary be
cause the great increase dur
ing the last few years in the cost Of
all materials that 60 to make up q
newspaper, makes the publication 3
first-class country newspaper unpro-
fitable at the 81 price. In order to
treat everybody fairly and give ample
notice Of the change, all subscriptions
paid before above date will be taken
at the 81 rate. Subscribers now on
our books will be charged $l.50 per
year as soon as their present sub
scription expires, unless renewal il
made within the above limit.
In this connection the Advertiser
wishes to extend its thanks for the
liberal patronage it has received and
promises to do all in it's power To-
merit q continuance Of the loyal sup
port Of its friends.

In Memory Of J. 4. McBee.

To the Master, Wardens and Brethren
OF Lexington Lodge No. "a, A. F.
and A. M:
We, your committee appointed to
draft resolutions in memory of our
deceased brother, John H. McBee,
beg leave to report the following:
Whereas, "The solemn notes that
betoken the dissolution of this earthly
tabernacle have again alarmed our
outer door, and the spirit of our
beloved brother, John H. McBee, has
passed out Of the East gate tn join
that innume-sble throng of Crafts
men who have preceded him, leaving
the silent chambers of our hearts
filled with sorrow and grief; and
Whereas, Our departed brother
was, not only "an upright man and
Mason" in whose life was exemplied
those most excellent tenets Of our
order, friendship, morality and broth
erly love, and to whom the square of
virtue was therule and guide in all his
transactions with his fellow men, but
was also an exemplary citizen and
ideal husband, kind and loving
father, and in all things and under all
circumstances a manly man; be it,
therefore,
Resolved, That we deeply deplore
his death and will forever cherish his
memory in our hearts; that We will
profit by his good example and con-
tinue the search for the hidden treas
ures Of true Masonry, which he has
so suddenly left off, to the end that
the trestle-board Of our lives may
also pass inspection and meet with
equal approval.
Resolved, further, That the Jewels
Of the lodge be draped in mourning,
and that the members thereof wear
the usual badge Of mourning for
thirty days, and that we hereby ten
der our heartfelt sympathy to his
bereaved family, that a copy of these
resolutions be sent to them and that
the county papers be requested to
publish the same.
