King, American vhilatelv has lost a human asset of superlative value and signifi- cance, and the shock of his untimely | and tragic passing will be felt among collectors of all classes. Mr. King was Loth an artist and a scientist. His love of beauty found expression in his work as an architect, and his devotion to truth was mani- fested in his scholarly study of stamps and in his honorable and trustworthy practice of philatelic journalism With Max G. Johl as his collabora- tor, he sponsored the acknowledged classic of contemporary stamp ':iera- ure—the three volumes of “The United States Postage Stamps of the Twen- tieth Century,” of which the first two —Star Staff Photo, of the American Philatelist, revenue | editor of Scott’s Menthly Journal and United Staies editor of Stamps Maga- zine, His own personal collection included philatelic s10velties unique in charac- ter—original drawings for stamp de- signs, for »xample. But his speriali- zation in United States postal issues did not blind him t¢ the advantages of general collecting. On the contrary, he had the connoisseur’s appreciation for any ‘nteresting stamp withou* re- gard to its origin or classification. But Mr. King was not satisfied to Far collect, study or write alone. from being a “hermit,” he developed a positive genius for fellowship and toward that ideal end devoted = gen- which friends and strangers alike en- tertain in varting with him. Following a brief memorial address by Michael L. Eidsness, jr., the Wash- ington Philatelic Society adopted the following resolution Wednesday eve- ning: “Whereas, in the recent death of Beverly S. King, the Washington Philatelic Society has lost one of its most. valued members, a man whose expert knowledge and writings on the subject of philately have been a source of pleasure and information to many, and a man whose loss will be felt keenly by philatelists throughout the | country, therefore, be it resolved that he Washington Philatelic Society | does hereby publicly acknowledge the debt owed by philately to Mr. King for | his services and contributions in this | field and does take this opportunity to express its sorrow upon the occasion | of his death and to convey a message lof sympathy to his family in their | hour of bereavement, and be it further resolved that this resolution be in- corporated in the minutes of this society and that copies of this resolu- |tion be sent to the family of Mr. | King and to the press.” | The “collectors’ edition” of Mr. Far- | ley's gift stamps will go on sale at the | Philatelic Agency and the Benjamin | Pranklin station Friday morning at 8. Plate numbers are: 3-cent New- | burgh, 21118 and 21119; 1-cent Cen- tury of Progress souvenir, 21145 and 1159; 3-cent Century of Progress | souvenir, 21146 and 21160; 3-cent Byrd, perforated, 21167 to 21170; 3-cent Byrd souvenir, 21184; 3-cent | Mother’s Day. flat plate, 21202 to 121205; 3-cent Wisconsin, 21238 to 21241; 1-cent Parks, 21246 to 21249; 2-cent Parks, 21254 to 21257; 3-cent ' Parks, 21262 to 21265: 4-cent Parks, 21328 to 21331; 5-cent Parks, 21278 [to 21281; 6-cent Parks, 21320 to 121323; T-cent Parks, 21333 to 21336; 8-cent Parks, 21324 to 21327; 9-cent | Parks, 21316 to 21319; 10-cent Parks, 21337, 21339, 21340 and 21342; 1-cent Parks, sonvenir, 21341; 3-cent Parks souvenir, 21303, and 16-cent airmail, special delivery, 21312 to 21315, The Theodore Roosevelt Philatelic Society, Roosevelt High School, has asked that the Postmaster General authorize the sale of reprints in small quantities to accommodate junior col- the issuance of & stamp in memory of the Indian Chief Sequoyah, Septem- ber 16. A stamp in tribute to Commodore John Barry of Revolutionary War fame also has been requested. Other appeals are for stamps commemorat- ing the discovery of Puerto Rico by Christopher Columbus, the career of the late Senator Tom Watson of Georgia, and the centenary of the admission of the State of Michigan to the Union. Mr. Eidsness, in Stamps Magazine for March 9, writes: “Can scenic views or public building views be represented appropriately on small-size stamps? 1 think the answer should be: Yes. The 25-cent Niagara Falls, 50-cent Arlington Ampitheater, $1 Lincoln Memorial and $2 Capitol issues dem- onstrates that it can be done. ... “The small stamps, collectors should remember, are suitable for the use of firms known as ‘heavy mailers'—firms conducting large advertising cam- paigns, firms doing a large parcel post business. Hence, they reach thou- sands of ordinary collectors who other- wise never would see stamps of t_he special commemorative or promotion kind—the ‘Wisconsin and Parks issues, for instance. And there is an advan- tage in general distribution which will be apparent to anyone who thinks of the matter for a moment.” Concerning . the recently released green, bridge and presidential pale ace; 40-cent, red brown, airplane view of Tegucigalpa; 50-cent, yellow, symbolic owl, and 1-lempira, coat of arms. A new 8-drachma. light blue stamp has been issued by Greece for use on foreign letters. Printed in Czecho- slovakia, it presents a view of the en< trance to the Athens Stadium, built for the Olympic games, 1906. Peru announces seven commemo- ratives for the tercentenary of the city of Ica, center of the national wine in- dustry. The values of subjects are: 4c, siate, view of Ica; 5c, carmine, view of Huacachina; 10c, magenta, grapes; 20c, green, view of Huaca- china; 35c, claret, cotton boll; 50c, orange and brown. portraits of King Philip IV and, presumably, the viceroy Luis Velasco; and Ic, native deity. The Vatican State’s second set of commemoratives has appeared. It marks the Philippine series, the Associated Press says: “The smallest of the stamps, similar in shape to the ordinary United States lower values, include the 2-centavo, carmine, on Which is pictured Jose Rizal, patriot and writer, and the 20-centavo, olive, showing a native. “The next size, a 6-centavo, brown, with a native girl, is slightly larger, with the design printed upright.

They embrace a 4-centavo. | dark green; a 8-centavo, violet; a | 10-centavo, carmine; a 12-centavo, | black; a 16-centavo, blue; a 26-cen- tavo, dark blue, and a 30-centavo, jorange red. | “Among the historical scenes pic- ! tured are the landing of Magellan, on lectors whe cannot afford full sheets the 16-centavo, and the signing of or complete sets of blocks of four. | the blood compact, on the 30-cen- third group, containing seven values, | meeting of the Inter national Juridical Con- gress and in- cludes six values c, orange dark 25¢, | | 3 red; 10c, | Rift B % violet; 1 green; T5¢c, H X 1 green; 80c, 3 green, and 1.25L, blue. But the notable and sig- PE3 § nificant detail , of the set is the | fact the designs are copies of paint- | ings by Raphael Sanzio, “best-be- | loved of painters.” The example so | established might be followed by other | postal organizations to the benefit of | culture in general and philately in particular.

Some one came running up toward him, almost crashed him. The soldier jumped back against the wall. “Pardon, senor!” he gasped. Montana went silently past. He was down the second flight of stairs. He was at the entrance to the guard room. There had been three men in the place when he and Rubriz made their entrance, terrible hours before. There were almost a dozen present now, and there was a cap- | tain among them! From the deeps of his throat the Kid summoned a guttural roar: “At- tention!” and strode in on the wings of that word. They came to rigid attention, all of them, their eves foolishly staring, their arms foolishly stiff at their sides. So the Kid crossed to the door. “Open!” he thundered. “But, excellency—" said the cap- tain. There was a corporal who heard | the word “excellency” and sprang like a frightened rabbit to do the first He worked feverishly, wrenching back the three bolts. He thrust them so fast and hard that | they clanged loudly. The heavy door yawned a little. “Excellency said the captain. “Silenc roared El Keed. “Silence be damned!" exclaimed the captain. “What are you and who are you?” He came striding, with a jingle of spurs, and the Kid leaped through the widening lip of the door. ‘The night struck at him like a wet black hand. He heard, from behind him, a scream of rage and astonish- ment, like the shriek of a woman. Hard to the left he turned, shed- ! ding the encumbering cloak as he ran. Behind him, the arm of light was widening, reaching into the rain of the night. And the guard was pouring out, each man shooting at the brilliant phantom nothingness of the light and the rain. Then they had sight of Montana | to their left, already dim with night | |and distance, and running straight down the slope toward those willows which stood by the bank of the river. | They paused even now to fire a few shots, in hope of good fortune and also to catch the ear of the rest of the fort. Then they burst into pur- suit of a fugitive who was already | invisible. One cry came out of the throat of the Kid as he neared the willows. And when he came through them he _ | found the gigantic form of the friar. The Kid leaped on the red mare. “Take the black and the mule,” CRE TRACT ON KENT ISLAND. | he commanded. “I have half of the crown. The soldiers are after me. We must ford the river. Rubriz will never come this way tonight!” They pushed straight out from the The rain, sent out of a kind heaven, the same wind and rain that had tortured Montana |on the ledge beneath the window, now stormed down in an - trable veil. He could hear g“ul::::xno!ts from behind, but he could see noth- ing. The water rose to his knees, :;1 shoall:d. He came out on the far- er shore, with Brother beside him. T As Montana had guessed, it was not on the strength of his hands that Rubriz was depending when he determined to leave the governor's room by the open way. ‘When he came to the fallen door he picked it up and placed the bur- den of it over his shoulder and the back of his neck. He had barely put the thing in position when many men stormed in from the hall with panting Gen. Ignacio Estrada at their head. He caught Rubriz by the shoulder. His grip slipped on the great rub- bery muscles that shod the bones of Rubriz. “What's this? What's happen! here?” cried Estrada. Theh.ne “I carry away the door to be re- paired,” said Rubriz. “I know noth- ing but orders. I am a poor servant, senor.” “All half-wits. All fools. Nothing but blind men around me tonight,” shouted Estrada. He strode on into his room. The others followed, and with the bugles blowing the call to arms, Rubriz went on down the stairs. ‘The' governor, entering his bed which he was held and the sorrow into "q'i v E BY EVAN EVANS - room. looked wildly around him.

What burn, you fool?” bellowed the general. Then he saw it and followed the irregular course of the little black spots to the point where they disap- peared under the door of the closet. At that, & suspicion too terrible to pass up into words overwhelmed him. He passed & hand across his shaggy hair, It seemed to him that a ghost, not Ignacio Estrada, had been rejoicing himself not long before with the pretty face of a girl. Compared with such a loss as might befall him, what were all the women of the world? He tore open the closet door. In- side the thick, strange smell which had been noticeable in the bed room was much more pronounced. And the door of the safe hung open on one hinge—the drawers had been jerked out, half the contents scat- tered, half taken! He had a good hold on the edge of the door or he would have stag- gered. He might even have fallen to his knees under the weight of this calamity. Instead, he merely rolled back his head and started upward. “Father in heaven, what have I done to you?” muttered Estrada. He turned slowly on the others. “Get out into every corner of the building!” he exclaimed. “Burrow into the cracks of the stones. Be- cause El Keed is here among us. My God! how can a man walk invisible? I am robbed. Do you hear? And El Keed—" A loud and sustained rattling of guns began at this moment. The general ran to the open window and | leaned out. “It's from the postern! | thief has escaped by the came I'll skin the guards them with my own teeth!" “No, excellency. He could not have | gone that way. men and Captain “Damn the men—damn the cap- tains! Names are no good. Numbers are nothing. Brains are what rule the world. Scatter! Use your feet if you can't use your wits! | The door was heavy, but Rubriz could have carried it like a feather |if he had not known that it was | better to assume the swinging, slow | pace of the true laborer. So he went | patiently down the stairs and through | the lower gallery, and finally into the | great open court vard, where he was | shocked by a noise of firing just out- | side the fort and a clamoring of voices made high and thin by ex- citement. He dropped the door to the ground, but, noticing that some soldiers were watching him, he hastily put it on his back once more and went on. Had they captured Montana? Well, at least the curse of the alarm bell, was still in his ear, beat- | ing on his brain with the impulse to | flee as fast as he could. He kept to his steady gait right across the in- side parade ground. He was right at the gate before he was halted. “Who goes there?” - “Luis Lapaz.” “What's that' “The door of the room of Gen. Estrada.” “What are you doing with the ddor of the commander?” asked the lieu- tenant. He began to laugh as he asked the question. “I am carrying it,* said Rubriz, simply. “I can see you are, donkey. Buf why are you carrying it?” “I am taking it away,” said Rubriz. “Be patient.” said another young officer. “You can see that the man is not right, up here.” “Well, these fools! Luis Lapaz?” “Yes, senor.” “Where is your pass?” “I lost it, my senor.” “Come, come! = Simpleton or no simpleton, that won’t do here!

Elliott stamp editor, Syracuse Post-Standard. “From one of the smallest inde- pendent countries in the world, the Grand Duchy of Luxemberg, comes a very in- teresting set of six semi-postals,” says an an- nouncement from H. E. Harris and Co., Boston. “These stamps all bear the seal of John the Blind, Count of Luxem- burg and King of Bohemia . . . one of the outstanding soldiers of all time. A “He fought in Germany. Lithuania, Poland and Italy. In an expedition to convert the heathen in Prussia, he was deprived of the sight of one eye, and unskilful treatment of the other | soon rendered him totally blind. i “Even blindness, however, could not deter him and he continued his military exploits. In 1346 France was invaded by King Edward III and his son, the Black Prince of England. John went to the aid of his good friend. Philip of Valois. King of France. In the famous battle of Crecy he was slain. Such was the glorious end of one of the most valiant char- acters in history.” Albrecht von Haller, 1708-1777, rep- resented in the design of a recent 30c plus 10c Pro Ju- ventute stamp of Switzerland, was a physician, bot- anist, poet, philos- ospher and states- man—a universal genius who ex- celled in prac- tically everything to which he put his hand. His books still are a source of cultural instruction and rec- ! now has paid him philatelic honors. | | A memorial service is depicted on | two recent stamps of the Sudan—the | 20-piastre and 50-piastre values of the set issued in tribute to Gen. Charles “Chinese” Gordon on the 50th anni- versary of his death January 28. The design shows soldiers and people as- sembled w honor the memory of “as | noble a military figure as England has | ever produced,” the generous and | chivalrous “martyr of Khartoum.” Four other denominations of the same | set bear a portrait of Gordon and iew of the Gordon Memcrjal Honduras is bringing out a new regular series and a_ new airpost series, coincidentally. In the former classification, the 1-cent value is deep green, 2-cent, carmine rose; 5-cent, deep blue, and 6-cent, deep brown, the designs showing portraits of emi- nent citizens and public officers, while in the latter group there are seven denominations, as follows: Eight- show a portrait of Henry Pu Yi, named to the Manchurian throne by the Japanese war lords, and the values are: 15f, red: 181, blue gren, and 30f, brown.

Lee Hotel Building, Winston- Salem, is preparing a special cachet for early covers. A. E.

Fourteen new stamp clubs have been formed within the past vear in the territory served by the Boston Evening Transcript. The late Henry J. Duveen, & mem- ber of the firm of Duveen Bros, art dealers. New York, was an eminent | philatelist as well as a distinguished judge of paintings. When he died. January 15, 1919, it was estimated -hat his stamps were worth $1,000,00D.
