Fat Places Are Abolished.

Washington, July 1.-Postmaster
General Payne to-day issued an order
abolishing the position Of physician
in post offices at the close of business
June 80, 1908. This order wipes
out small list Of officials whose en-
ployment, without specific authority
OF law, has caused wide discussion in
connection with the Post Office in
vestigation.
Some, at least, OF these offices paid
81, 100 a year, and were sinecures.
One man was carried ON the rolls OF
the Washington Office for over year
at that salary and had practically
no duties to perform. The office was
finally abolished here, and recently
the Postmaster General held that
the employment of physicians should
be allowed only at offices in cities Of
100000 or more population. The
post Offices employing physicians up
to the close Of the fiscal year which
expired last night, when the Post
master Generals order took effect,
are: New York, Chicago Brooklyn,
Philadelphia and Boston.

beards-black, brown and strawber-

as many men to-day in thirty min,

hi Mario, who hangs out his sign at
No. AIS Pennsylvania avenue. Such
feat has never before been accom-
plished in Washington. just thirty
minutes after the lather was slapped
on the first man time was called and
eighteen men walked out OF Di
Marzo's shop meditatively rubbing
their chins.
The first beard up went down IN
one minute and thirty seconds.
WELDING his razor with long, swift
strokes, Di Mario increased his pace
until he shaved the sixth man in fiji.
ty-eight seconds. ,,....
The hardest boards came when all
the young men were used up and the
wrinkle-faced old fellows were tum-
bled into the chair. Two minutes
and twenty-five seconds was the long
est time given to any one man and
tie razor on his beard made a noise
like a good sized buzz saw.
While the fourteenth man was be.
ing shaved it was discovered that all
the invited guests had had their
boards removed.
A dive into the crowd and the own.
er Of a scraggy beard was rushed III
to the chair protesting that he did
not want to have his hair cut. None
was cut, however, not even clipped,
1t was with difficulty that one old
fellow was restrained from paying
for his shave.
After the hall hour contest was ov.
er Dio Mango gave an exhibition Of
what he could do on one man. In
the incredible time Of forty EIGHT sec
onds the barber cleaned his man and
dumped him out OF the chair.

Ohio Town Has a Tramp Mayor.
From the Indianapolis News.

From the indianapolis News.
The politicians of Amesville, o.,
learned that it does not pay to in
dulge in practical Jokes in the cleo
ton of mayor. They tried it, and as
result the town has for mayor a
man who was known as a tramp,
who had served time in the Cincin.
natl workhouse.
The politicians thought it would
be good joke to nominate the
tramp for mayor. The people
thought the joke SO good that they
followed the precedent and electt d
him. Then they all turned to the
governor and petitioned him to set
aside the election on the ground that
it was illegal. The lawyers and the
bestrepresenta'ives OF the town went
to Columbus last week to lay their
petition before the governor, and al
ter hearing them Governor Nash said
he could see no cause for his interior
ence.

San Antonio, Tex, uly2.-A cloud
burst to-day visited the southwest
ern section OF Texas, causing the
death Of several persons and entail
ing a heavy property loss. No accu-
rate reports Of the loss Of life can be
obtained, as the telegraph wires are
down In the storm swept section,
but enough is known to warrant the
belief that at least twenty people
persisted in the food.
At Beeville one Mexican was swept
away, Near Normana ten Mexican
farm hands are reported drowned
and twelve more are said to have
been drowned at Pettus.
The heaviest damage was sustained
by the San Antonio & Arkansas Pass

swept away.

office OF R NJ Love, state comptrol'
Ter, and killed him with two bullets
from a large caliber revolver. As
Hill turned to fee he was intercepted
BY Chief Clerk Stevens Of the depart

during which Hills revolver was ac-
cidentally exploded. The bullet en-
tered Hills abdomen, causing a
wound from which he died yesterday
afternoon.
As to what caused the shooting,
none can explain other than it was
the act OF a mailman. Hill had been
an employee of the comptroller's Of
flee for ten years preceding Loves
term OF office. He was discharged
by Mr.. Love VIII n the latter took
charge. and 1t is presumed this fact
preyed upon his mind. Yesterday he
went to the capitol, entered Loves
private Office, spoke to him cheerful
ly, shook hands, and handing him a
letter to read, sat down at the in
vitstion of the comptroller. No
sooner did Mr.. Love begin reading
the letter than Hill sprang to his
feet and fired two shots at Mr. Love,
one taking effect just above, the 9th

Love screamed, dropped the letter
and sprang hall forward towards his
assassin, then gasped and fell back
