AFFAIRS OF THE ASSOCIATION.

There is under consideration an amendment to the constitution of the Association that will probably be offered at the next meeting. The proposed amendment would establish a small initiation fee for the fellowship and lower the annual dues of fellows to the general level of two dollars. The fee for life membership would, of course, be correspondingly lowered.

The annual meeting of the Texas State Historical Association was held at Baylor University, Waco, April 21, 1903, 2:30 p. m. Vice-President F. R. Lubbock occupied the chair.
