SEALEDD POST CARDS.
Require Letter Rates of Postage
Stamps Must be on the Envelopes.

The postoffice department has Just
issued a new regulation in reference
to rates of postage on post cards or
postal cards which will be of interest.
Post cards and postal cards mailed
under cover of sealed envelopes
transparent or otherwise) are charg-
able with postage at the first-class
rate-two cents an ounce or fraction
thereof. If inclosed in unsealed en-
velopes they are subject to postage
according to the character of the mes
sage-at the first-class rate if wholly
or partly in writing, or the third-class
rate Zone cent for each two ounces or
fraction thereby if entirely in print,
and the postage should be affixed to
the envelopes covering the same.
Postage stamps affixed to such
cards inclosed in envelopes having an
opening exposing the stamp cannot be
recognized in payment of postage
thereon
However, where such cards, prop
erly addressed and prepaid-bearing
no matter rendering them unavailable
under ostmaster-Generals orders
Nos. LAG (par. 81 and $50 (par. ~
when sent openly in the mails-are
inclosed in envelopes, it will be as
'sumed that they We're inadvertently
placed under cover, and they may be
removed therefrom and dispatched
without additional payment of pos
tage''

Postage for Reply.

You may now enclose postage for
reply in letters going to any foreign
country in the postal union. A cou-
pom can be bought at postoffices for
six cents which can be exchanged by
your foreign friends for a five cent
stamp. Heretofore it was impossible
to enclose return postage as United
States stamps were no good in foreign
countries and foreign stamps could
not be used for postage here. In case
return postage was desired, it was
necessary to purchase a draft, or en-
close the money and register the let
ter, both of which ways were expen-
siVe.

Women Who Wear Well.

It is astonishing how great change .
few years Of married life often make In
tho appearance and disposition Of many
brillIance vanish like the bloom from
peach which Is rudely handled. The
matron Is only dim shadow, o faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
tho unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form Of its
fairness.

DARING ONSLAUGHT,
CONTINUED from Page One.)

Of the Hep Sing Tong men of New York
was captured by Special Officer Linton
aS he was running away. AS the Off
Ger grabbed him he threw a revolver
into the alley, which was later picked
up. AT the station he gave the name of
MIN Sing, aged 90, of New York. He
was, dressed in American clothes AS it
was believed at the outset that China
mon from out Of town did the shooting
squad of plain clothes men were sent
to the stations to intercept all the de-
parting Cinnamon. Officers Ford and
Brooks at the South Station took into
custody Hong WoOn, aged "a. of New
York, whose hands were powder stain
ed and who bore evidence of having
run all the way from Chinatown to the
South station, as he was nearly eN-
hausted when arrested. Another 44-cal-
ibre revolver, which Hong Woon is be-
lieved to have thrown away, was found
along the route the Cinnamon took To
the South station.
Both men arrested were charged with
manslaugl.ter in causing the death of the
three Cinnamon and have been placed in
cells. The police also placed under arrest
on suspicion seven other Cinnamon who
are strangers to the local colony.
The shooting occurred in narrow alley
called oxford place, which is directly be.
hind and parallel to Harrison street, in
the heart of Bostons Chinatown. Hero
the Cinnamon sit and smoke on summer
evenings surrounded by their wives and
children after the days business Is DONE
Most Of them live in small tcnemtnts
which lead Off the alley. which is scarcely
more than eco feet in length and some Is
feet wide.
The trouble began tonight n few min
rtes before S o'clock when a number
of strange Cinnamon, variously estimated
at from 10 to Is. appeared at the SOUTH
ern end of the alley directly In the rear
OF Cams restaurant, which closes that
end of the alley except for a narrow pas
seagway. Tie men seemed to open fire
all at once and it is believed that fully 30
shots were fired. There seemed to be no
effort to single out any particular China
man, but that the visitors shot with care
full accuracy was evinced by the fact that
each of the three men killed was shot
through the heart. In fact there were
two or three bullets sent through vita!
spots In each of the men killed. In the
scramble and melee which followed tho
aim Of the ASSISTANTS proved less fatal,
Yet several of the injured carry two or
three bullet wounds.
