She Will Get Mail
In Rural Bird CAGE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 9.--The
intercession of Mrs. Roosevelt in be-
half of destitute widow residing in a
western state was the cause of the issu-
ance by First Assistant Postmaster
General Wynne recently of an order
forbidding any postmaster or rural
letter carrier from condemning or de-
clining to serve any letter box on a
rural mail route which does not COM
ply with the requirements of the post
Office department.
Mrs. Roosevelt received a letter some
time ago in which the writer said that
she was a widow, the sole support OF
her children, and was very poor. Be
| ing unable to purchase steel box OF
the style authorized by the President
she had taken a wooden bird cage from
tree, which, she thought, by the ad-
dition of a slit at the top, would answer
the purpose of mail receptacle, but
the postmaster at the rural free deliv-
cry office had ordered the rural carrier
not toleave mail in the bird cage,

Change.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 9.-The
alarming reports sent out from Balti-

| Vests eyes are not taken very seri-
ously here. The Senator for many
years has had trouble with his eyes,
and occasionally has to consult an
oculist
His trip to aBlitmore is one of these
periodical consultations, and does not
indicate anything more alarming than
usual in his case. The fact that he
was not accompanied by his wife
shows that the Senator is not in ex-
treme danger Mrs. Vest remained at
her home in Washington.
This morning she received note
from her husband. saying that he Is
doing very well, and that his treat
ment is satisfactory and producing
good results.
To a stranger Senator Vest would
appear very feeble and of failing eye
sight, but to those who have known
of his condition for the last four years
there would appear no alarming change
for the worse. either in his physical
strength or in the condition of his eye
sight.

YUM INDIlN'S HAIR
VALUED VERY HIGHLY

Locks at Two Thousand Five

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct "a COM
plaint has been filed in the County
Clerks office by Aqua His, a Yuma In
dian, against J. S. Spear, in which
the plaintiff asks for damages in the
sum of $4,000 and costs.
The complaint alleges that on July
q, 1902, at the Yuma Indian Reserva-
ton, in San Diego county, thedefen-
dant, J. S. Spear who is the govern
ment Indian Agent at Fort Yuma,
forcibly imprisoned the plaintiff in the
reservation Jail and kept him therein
until August $50. For this, he asks
through his attorney, G. N. Wilson,
damages in the sum of $4,000.
The complaint further AYERS that
while thus forcibly detained against
his will, the said j. s. Spear cut, or
caused to be cut, all the hair on Aqua
Hiss head wholly depriVing the
plaintiff of a healthy growth of ma
tural hair. highly priced by the plain
tiff" because he is entitled by the laws
of his tribe ito wear, use and enjoy
said hair and to keep it ON his head
and shoulders as protection from
the hot SUM-"
Aqua His represents that by this
outrage his standing among his own
people and among the whites has been
irreparably injured.
To get out of Jail he had to get a
writ of habeas corpus which cost him
$40, and also pay lawyer $40. These
additional amounts he desires includ-
ed with the larger item.

WON EN- VICTIMS
One Died This Morning and the
Other is Expected to Die as the
Result OF Extended Spree
With Two Men.

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa, Oct. g.
The st. Elmo restaurant was the scene
of tragedy last night which involved
the death of Miss Agnes Tompkins,
aged Is years, and the serious illness
of her companion, Mrs. Merlotte Ho-
henlogler, of 26 Boyd street, Pittsburg
Both women, who were employed at
the st. Elmo restaurant, had. been
drinking during the evening from a
bottle furnished by two OF the board
ers-L. M. Miller, travelling sales
man, and AL Weber, a lumber mer-
chant of Dayton. Pennsylvania. When
the bottle was emptied they left the
restaurant and visited a number. of
saloons. Weber did not accompany
the trio on their rounds.
At each place visited Miss Tomp-
kins ordered whisky, as did also the
other woman, while Miller drank beer.
Suddenly the young girl fell in con-
vulsions. She did not recognize those
who were near her, and called inco-
herently for her brother She was
removed to her room and medical
assistance summoned. Physicians re-
sponded and every effort was made to
relieve the girl, but to no avail. While
the physicians were working with the
unfortunate girl her companion, the
Hogenlogler woman, was suddenly
stricken in much the same manner.
Both women suffered terribly.
All night the physicians worked. but
at 7 o'clock this morning Miss ompkins
died. suffering great agony. The other
woman was finally resuscitated, and at
noon the physicians have some hope
of saving her life.
Miller was arrested at once and
placed in the lookup toawait an in
vestigation. Two men who were work
ing with him were held; as witnesses.
The coroner's jury has not yet returned
verdict An autopsy was held this
afternoon. and the eoroner's jury will
meet again tomorrow afternoon. Both
women were in perfect health, and it
is generally supposed that they were
given knockout drops. although no mo-
tive is known for the deed. When the
Tompkins girl was dying her screams
could be heard a square away, and ner
arms and chest were beaten until they
were black and blue.
