POSTAGE STAMPS.
Romances of Some of the Worlds
RareSt Issues.
THE death MASK" MYSTERY

Curious Case Of the servian Stamp Is
sued After the Murder Of King Alex
ander and Queen Draga-The One
Cent British Guiana Stamp of 1856.
Not little of the fascination which
the study and collecting OF postage
stamps holds for enthusiasts lies in
the fact that the story OF their origin
and subsequent history is in many
cases of an exceedingly romantic char.
acter. "
The single known copy OF the rarest
stamp In the world, valued ut $1,000
the one cent British Guiana issued
in lS56-was discovered by young
collector In the colony among some old
family papers stored away in an attic.
Knowing nothing OF its scarcity and
not being favorably impressed by its
appearance. he sold II to another col.
lector for trifling sum. the purchaser
being also ignorant OF his great bar
gain. Ultimately II found its way to
Europe and now reposes in the collec-
ton Of M. Philippe de la Renotiere Of
Paris, who purchased IL many years
ago.
The value Of $7.250 is placed upon
the famous "Postofiice Mauritius"
stamp. which was crudely engraved
on a small copper plate by local
matchmaker Of Port Louis and issued
on Sept 81. lS47. A total Of only 800
copies of each Of these stamps were
tediously printed of one at time
from the plate. and the majority Of
these were used on invitations to a
ball sent out by Lady Comm. wife Of
the governor OF the colony.
1t was not until nearly twenty years
after their issue that the first two cop
les of these rarities were brought to
light by a young stamp collector Of
Bordeaux. The most perfect used
copy of the I'd. Postoffice Mauritius
was sold by auction in 1904. and is
now included i'm King Georges collec
ton.
To the story Of the matchmaker who
designed this stamp may be added that

could find no engraver to cut the die

TROOPS and MUSIC
Military Bands Are a Big Fea-
ture In the Russian Army.
Guido ALL OTHER NATIONS.

Besides erass Band Each Regiment
Has q String and Wood Orchestra
and . Drum Corps-Even Posts With
Only Battalion Have Full Bands.
One feature OF the Russian army
which from time to time has been
brought to the attention of the world
outside OF Russia, chiefly by publica.
lions concerning themselves with mat.
ters appertaining to music, is the I'M.
usual size and number Of bands In the
military forces Of the car. The Rus.
sian soldier has more martial music
than any other soldier In the world.
There Is no regiment In the Russian
service without its own band. and nj
posts where not regiment but only q
battalion Is quartered that battalion
has its band. And these Russian mill.
tary bands are big and impressive mu.
steal organizations. Within each Is n
brass band and an orchestra of string
and wood instruments with, of course.
the necessary touch Of brass and sheep
skin. The result Is that. while these
military bands play primarily military
music, they also adapt themselves to
the performance Of such music as the
American hears at a symphony concert.
The regimental band In the United
States army consists of thirty-six
pieces. and bands ON f1agships Of the
navy are smaller. The average Rus.
sian army band. or orchestra. has from
forty to fifty musicians, and the or.
chestras Of certain guard regiments
contain sixty. There are more than
1000 Russian regiments, and there are
In the army about $4,000 bandsmen.
Then In the naval and military schools
and In the navy there are bands. and
II to these are added the twenty to
forty musieal pupils of regimental
orchestral school and the musical com.

Diet schools the number Of military mu.

mounts to the surprising total of ap-
proximately 100000 men. number
greater than the whole enlisted and

Russia takes c0mmendable pride
In its military bands. and the must
clans are all competent. The bands
men are trained In the regimental band
schools or In one of the numerous mu-
steal conservatories maintained by the
government. and each musical com
pany has conductor and his assist
ant both being graduates of one OF
the national Conservatives Of music.

maya kammanda, and they constitute
an important factor in the life of the
civil population. the government using
them for the entertainment of the pub
lie rs well as for the musical educa.
ton Of the masses very much as the
United States uses it's military bands
at WashingtOn-that is. in providing
free concerts for the people. Open air
concerts are common in the parks of
the larger towns and smaller cities
throughout Russia during the summer.
and In winter free recitals are given In
the barracks and public halls On
Sundays. fete days and national holi-
days band concerts and orchestral per-
formances are usual in the well set
tied regions of vast Russia.
The Russian military band is con-
siderably more than an army institu.
ton. The cost Of maintaining SO
many bands Is considerable even for
so rich a country as Russia, but the
government considers them as q prof
table investment The Russian SOL
der has come to require music and he
demands II. and these bands entertain
the masses and the classes. These
bands cater TO the highest musical
taste. and the average Russian in the
cities knows when music Is good and
he will have no other. The bands play
the new and popular music by com.
posers like lvanOff. but on all the band
programs you will see such names as
Liszt. Schumann. Chopin. Tschaikow-
sky. Glinka. Strauss and Debussy.
The army band spreads its musical
influence over Russia in another way.
After passing through the regimental
band school the bandsman serves three
years. Then he passes out Of the army,
usually returning to his native village.
The custom Is for him to carry back
into civil life with him the instrument
be played in the government band. His
musical training and accomplishment
make Of him in his home town q more
prominent and important man than he
otherwise would be. He often takes
M the teaching Of music and almost
invariably keeps up the practice of his
art. Very likely he organizes q VII
lage hand or orchestra. and into this
come amateur musicians and other
military bandsmen whose army serv.
Ice has expired. About 5000 Russian
army musicians annually leave the
army and return home to their fami.
