FINISHING FIRST
ORDER Of STAMPS
FOR PARCEL POST
Lot of $50, 900, 900 Will Be
Completed This Week,
and More Will Follow.

The last of ssO,0OO.0o0 stamps to be
used for the parcel post system in the
United States and foreign possessions
are ready to go on the press and will
be furnished this week Then the bu-
reau will be ready for the next order.
The second order is mere nothing be-
side the first, only 100000 stamps are
asked for and it is proposed to snatch
them through the presses In no time
and get ready for the real business OF
che year.
The management Of the Government
Bureau of Engraving and Printing feels
like patting itself on the back for the
work done in supplying the parcel post
stamps to the postoffices of the United
States The stupendous issue OF stamps.
few people can even imagine what 3S0,-
100000 is. in the short two weeks allowed
for the work was task to stagger
anyone, but at the proper time the
$1,000 bundles OF stamps. one for each
postoffice in the United States, were
shipped by registered mail TO where
they were destined to be OF use.
Just at present the bureau Is turn
ing out the mere trifie OF $1,000, 900
stamps a day for the parcel post. 1t
is parcel post, by-the-way, and not
parcels post as they have in England.
Just to show how many stamps that
is 1t may be proper to state that the
paper on which the stamps are printed
daily weighs a ton and half. and the
Ink used would make red smear all
around the world.
The parcel post system is being en-
thusia stically used and the demand for
stamps Is expected to be kept up. The
convenience and economy make it Won
derfully popular.

SHEA In 1.-THE BELLS"
SEEN AT ACADEMY
Character Actor Gives Fine Por.
trayal, Assisted BY Clever
Company.

The Bells" apparently become a
classic with Shakespearean roles and
the older comedies, proved an excellent
vehicle Of expression for the ability of
Thomas L. Shea and his company at
he Academy last night. The play of
passion, the gradual breaking down Of
the mind under the strain of concealing
crime for fifteen years. was carefully
portrayed.
The famous last act, played with the
stage in semi-darkness and no action
by any but the principal actor deserves
a place with the work done by the
greatest OF dramatists. II is to the
credit of Mr.. Shea. also, that his action
was carefully followed by his large
audience.
The supporting characters were good.
Jack Armory as Farmer Walter and
William Dickerman as an old poacher
deserve special mention. Charlotte
Burkett as Catherine, and Pearl Ford
as Annette. ]. ]. Cassidy as Christian,
