Under Arrest.
(By United presS.)

SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.
Lieut.. Frank T. Evans, son
Of Fighting Bob. proved
early today that he IS chip off
the old block when he stood off
70 thugs and loafers in a dance
hall in the Barbary Coast dis
iriet and rescued two sailors of
Tie l. 5. S. Louisiana, who had
isilen into the hands of the
denizens Of the tendefloin.
When young Evans saw his
fellow sailors in trouble he
waded into .e crowd. using
his lists vigorously. and when
he was surrounded drew a re-
volver and told them he would
shoot the first man that got in
his way.
lie made his way to the
men he wanted 10 protect and
forced three thugs to take their
hands off them and allow them
to go with him.
The crowd was angry at the
interference Of the Young lieu
tenant and was preparing TO
rush him when the police ar
rived.
Not Recognized.
Evans wore civilian clothing
and was not recognized as a
sailor. The police at once
placed him under arrest on tho
charge OF carrying a concealed
weapon and ordered him TO
60 with them t. the city prison.
Having seen that his comrades
were safe. he readily surrender
ed and did not tell who he was
until he arrived at the central
station. There he quickly es-
tahlished his identity and was
released on his own reeogri-
rance 10 appear 10 answer to
he charge Of carrying a pistol.
The sailors rescued by Lieut..
Evans were Nm. Edmundsen
and John Walliek.
The trouble started at the

The sights, and was On the out
skirts of the crowd when he

He saw the woman take so
from the sailor. and the blue
Jacket at the same time realized
that he was being robbed and
grabbed the woman. pushing
her against table, knocking It
over. This threw the dance
hall into wild disorder, and the
labitues quickly surrounded

WAR ON ANARCHIST PAPERS.
Postmaster General Meyer to Prose-
cute Them With Renewed Vigor.

Beginning July / Postmaster Gen.
eral Meyer will continue with renew
ed vigor his crusade against anarch-
istic newspapers.
Following his order denying the
use of the mails to a Patterson an
archist paper, Mr. Meyer instructed
the third assistant postmaster gen.
eral to formulate an order providing
that papers of an anarchistic or So
cialistic character, printed in a for
eign language, would be equired to
print with it translation in English
of any matter that was incendiary or
advocated anarchy.
An examination of the law, how
ever, disclosed that such an order
could not be based on it, and accord
ingly Mr. Meyer suggested to the post
office committees Of congress an
amendment to section 1898 of the re-
vised statutes, which prohibits the
carrying in the mails of indecent
matter. The amendment Nsbich was
inserted and upon which v5will be
based the forthcoming order of the
postmaster general is as follows:
"And the term indecent within the
intendment of this section shall in
clude matter of a character tending
to incite arson, murder or assassina-
tion."
This amendment will become active
July l. and at that time 1t is the in
tention of the postmaster general to
detail law officers of the department
to examine carefully a score or more
of papers, some of which are printed
in the English language, to see If they
are violating the new order.

a friend of the junior senator, thus
aptly termed the recommendation
made by Senator Borah for three
branch offices of the Boise postof-
flee,
Pressed for an explanation he con-
tinued: THAT is a good scheme, for
with the creating of three branches
of the Boise office, the appointment
of % assistants in the office will be
necesitated and in this way the band
wagon will be enlarged upon. Boise
has not yet reached that point where
three branch offices are needed. The
free dlivery will be maintained and
money orders and mail will be ham
died at the branch offices.
Appointments to the branch office
will be made upon recommendation Of
the senator and greater prestige thus
gained for the office holders will be
dependent upon the senator for rap
pointment and candidates for the Of
flee will likewise require the support
of the senator"
The movement for three branch
offices was started last February by
Postmaster Fenton, who it is rumor-
ed will soon be removed and a sue
cessor appointed. The matter was
taken up by Senator Borah and rec
ommendation made for the establish
ment of the branch offices.
The location of the proposed branch
offices as discussed. are for an office
at or near the intersection of Main
and Sixteenth streets, probably the
corner of Thirteenth and Eastman
streets; and on east Warm Springs
avenue. The carriers, under the plan
proposed. will make their headquar-
ters in the branch office in which
their territory is located.

the commissioners and is % be made
a special and distinct feature of the
show which Oregon will put on dis
play for the pleasure of the world.
The yard surrounding the oregon
building, which lies in one of the most
commanding positions on the grounds,
Is to be planted with rosebushes, all
from Portland, and they will be plenti-
full enough to make the place look like
a veritable bank of roses, always In
full bloom. This Is to be arranged by
planting certain roses according to
the season, and in order that they will
be in blossom continually during the
entire summer.
On the interior of the building Mr..
Wright says, preparations are to be
made for the exhibit of cut flowers.
Every inch of available space not used
for other purposes is to be converted
for the display of cut flowers which
are to he sent from Portland daily.
With the yard full of growing roses
and the building decorated with the
cut varieties, the commissioners be-
lieve that the sight will be one of the
prettiest and most attractive on the
grounds.
Mr.. Wright says that the Oregon
building as well as all Of the other
buildings are rapidly being construct
ed, and that the exposition will be in
readiness to open on time next
spring.
