SHE USED AN UMBRELLA.
One WomaD's Way Of Avenging an
Insult.

Passers by in the vicinity Of + and 9th streets
we're treated to somewhat unexpected sensa-
tionai scene this morning. middle-aged man
was heard to address lady of rather prepos-
sessing appearance in decidedly uncomplimen-
tary terms, TO the effect that he would have her
In the Police Court yet and that she was low
woman. The words were scarcely uttered
when the woman brought her closed umbrella
down with q couple Of resounding whacks upon
the back Of the mans neck and then appealed
to persons near to protect her from the insults
Of that scoundrel" There was no need of
interference, however, for the Inundated man
picked up his hat, which had been knocked of
in the scrimmage, and disappeared. and the
avenger Of her good name continued her
way nnmolested. The witnesses we're
quite at loss to account for
the spirited meeting, but a STAR reporter
learned that the immediate cause Of the diff
Guilty was scurrilous postal card received from
the man by the woman, who is q widow. She
couldn't prosecute him here. because il was
surrepttiously mailed and there was no way
to prove that it had passed through the
mails. The Candier-Swset horsewhipping in
cident attracted the indignant womans
attention, and she sent her defamer q marked
copy Of TIE STAR containing an account of
Mrs. Candler's proficiency with the horsewhip
and wrote on the margin of the paper that II
he wasn't csrsful he would be treated In the
same manner as Mr.. Sweet There the corre-
spondence ended. but caused the belligerent
meeting this morning.

Offices. There are forty-fve post Offices under
the system. Examinations ere held at these
twice year, the grades being clerks, letter
carriers, messengers and stamperr. Registers
are kept at the loca! offices and certificates
made by the local boards, who are supposed 70
keep the commission informed as 10 every step.
Owing to the lack OF clerical force at Washing
ton the commission has not been able to keep
abreast OF this department so as to know
always whether the work is being carried on
properly.
CENTRAL BOARD.
Mr.. Lyman here proposed plan for the bet
tering Of the service, which, he said, the COM
missioners considered Of great importance and
which he hoped the committee would seriously
consider. He thought there should be organ
lied at Washington board of examiners large
enough to examine and mark all examination
papers.
This board he thought would require twenty
examiners, and in case it was established the
help of the men detailed from the departments
and also in large measure the local boards
could be dispensed with.
Mr.. Lyman also went into the plan brought
out by Mr.. Roosevelt in bis statement that the
rule regarding local boards be SO changed that
the commission could appoint on them men
not in the public service.

SUFFERING IN OKLAHOMA.
The President Suggests to Congress q
Measure of Relief.

A very sorrowful story IL that which the
President yesterday transmitted to Congress-
But few months ago the restless of the land
made wild and uncomfortable rush for Okla
homa. Hundreds of wagons bore the mod
srnized announcement, Oklahoma or Bust"
today there are thousands who have succeeded
in getting On to both horns Of the dilemma
They reached Oklahoma and are 'busted."
To such an extent does distress exist that Gov
Steele Of Oklahoma communicated with the
President and showed that hundreds Of fami-
lies were in danger of almost immediate star
walton because they have had no opportunity
to raise sufficient crops on which to live and
because they have no funds on which to sup
port themselves until crops are possible. Gov.
Steele states that the legislature was helpless,
and he, therefore, had to turn to Congress for
relief.
In transmitting Gov. Steele's communication
to the Senate the President says:
Information received by me from other
sources leads me to believe Gov. Steele is alto
gether right in his impression that there will
be, unless relief is afforded either by public APP
preparation or by organized individual effort,
widespread suffering among the settlers in
Oklahoma. Many Of these people expended in
travel and In providing shelter for their families
all OF their accumulated means. The crop pros
poets for this year are, by reason of drought,
unfavorable, and the ability of the territory
itself to provide relief must be inadequate dur
ing this year.
Il am advised that there is an unexpended
balance OF about $4,000 Of the fund appro-
priated for the relief of the sufferers by flood
upon the Mississippi river and Its tributaries.
and l recommend that authority be given to
use this fund to meet the most urgent uecessi-
ties OF the poorer people in Oklahoma. Steps
have been taken to ascertain more particularly
the condition Of the people throughout the
territory, and if larger relief should seem to
be necessary the facts will be submitted to
Congress. II the fund to which have referred
should be made available for relief in Okla
homa, care will be taken that so much of it as
Is necessary to be expended shall be judiciously
applied to the most worthy and necessitous
caees"

How Canyassers at Two Cents Q Name
FAled up Their Lists.

A business man had q rather amusing expe-
rience the other day. A man came into his
office with petition to be presented to Con-
gress urging the retention Of the Pennylvania
railroad station in its present place The bus
mess man stated that he could not sign the
petition
But" persisted the visitor, as he unrolled
the petition and laid it down on the desk, II
get two cents for each name"
The gentleman glanced over the names and
he saw one that he was unfamiliar with, but
the address was the same as his place of bust
ness. Seeing through the scheme at once he
said to the man: If you want names like that
can give you several"
So he wrote down q number of fictitious
names and the man went away evidently very
much satisfied. A few days later another man
came in with similar petition and the gentle
man in looking it over saw that before coming
upstairs he had persuaded all the boys down
stairs to sign their names.
The boys, also to be accommodating, had
written a number Of fictitious Names
One Of these men told the gentleman later
that no had turned his petition over to the rail-
road company and had received two cents O
name, as had been agreed upon.

held the wire he was completely blind.
