Colored envelopes used by some Min neapolis business houses in the dispatch of mail are causing the postoSice and the railway mail clerks considerable annoy ance and trouble. Addresses on them, un less written with a typewriter, are almost undecipherable. When the tact that most of the work in handling letters is done under gaslight and on swaying mail cars is considered, it will not seem strange that clerks regard colored envelopes as a device designed for their particular dis comfort. Red is the worst color in the spectrum for envelope use. Blue is next. Unless the address is written in the blackest of ink it appears as nothing under artificial light. Colors are more endurable as they approach white, which is the only kind of letter cover approved by the scores of men through whose hands mail passes. The postmaster has had occasion to make special suggestions to firms that they print their envelopes and wrappers on white paper. Business houses which have adopted one color and used it so long that it is a familiar trade mark, dislike to make the change, but it is probable that they will recognize the justice of the re quest In view of the fact that it will lighten the burden of the clerks and as sist in the rapid and correct delivery of mail. THE ROYAL ITALIAN BAND Creature. I lie Director, lias Gathered a Priceless Musical Library. The library of the Royal Italian band, which comes to ,the Lyceum for six con certs, beginning next Monday afternoon, is the most expensive band library owned in America to-day. It is of remarkable value and its variety is simply immense. A great part of it was gathered from Rome, Naples and other Italian musical centers, and the high regard in which Signor Giuseppe Creatore, the director, is held by the great musicians of Italy, has enabled Manager Ellery to draw upon the priceless libraries of that country. In addition to the great Italian operas and masterpieces which always compose a fair proportion of the programs, a sufficient number of popular selections of the day and marches are always inserted to make every program of interest, not alone to .those who are highly educated in music, but to others as well. Many of the marches which are meeting with the most favor are Creatore's own compositions. They are all on the order of the Italian military marches and have a dash and swing to them that is rarely attained by American writers.
