who tried to hold him up and rob him on
Thursday night. Mr Scnnlan left his butcher
shop on Upper Broadway late In the evenIng -
Ing to go to bin homo near Plainer street.
Ho carried ijulte. n largo sum of IMOMCJ In
his pocket , but nothing In the tiliapo of u
weapon of defense. As he passed the Hroad-
way Methodist church ho observed n couple
of men lurking In the shadow of the build
ing. When ho turned up Stutsman street
ho noticed that they wcie following him.
IIu walked rapidly for the distance of a block
and made the unpleasant discovery Unit
they had walked mill more rapidly and were
close behind him. Ho then took the middle
of the street for It and n foot race had be1-
gun. The thugs were two large , powerful
men , and It was fair to presume that they
were well armed. The ox-chief of police Is
by no means a man who will retreat before
01 dinar } odds , but he did not court an en
counter In the dark with two desperadoes
mid run the chance of losing his money and
1'ls life. The race continued for n distance
of several blocks , when Scan Ian made a
quick turn into a dark side street , where
several rapid strides plated him behind a
large post that completely concealed him.
'the footpads reached the cornet an Instant
later and looked carefully for their victim.
They were standing ltlilrn few feet of him
"Whero did the go to , anywav ? "
"Ho must have dodged Into the side door
of that house. Ho lives there and we've IOM

The footpads sized up the house and after

ued his way home. Ho now carries a gun

NlllUi-H Col lee I II.
In the months of March and April during
the rainy fic.ibon one sees bus > life in the
native towns of the French Congo , relates
the New York Sun The iren are preparing
to go to the hush to cut rubber. Every
women nnd child stems to have something
to do , ami oven the men do not lounge about
a.i usual , hut are sharpening their knives
ami machetes and putting their guns Into
proper trim. The women are digging
cassava , mid some of them are washing It
and preparing chlgunnga or native In cad
Others nn > cleaning the cassava with knives
nnd fjing It Into mattets made from palm
leaves This kind of tathava Is roasted
over the lire nnd entcu warm , while the
bread U eaten cold and Is mostly used on
thp road. The men carry their guns so
they may kill the game which abounds In
the forest.
When all is ready a drunken carousal and
dance arc given the night before the start
by way of saying farewell to the villagers
left at home. Sometimes a good place with
plenty of i libber plants Is found after a
niircli of two or three days , but oftener the
Journey takes n week or more. In this case
the men keep carriers on the road w Ith food
for them , because there Is nothing to ho had
In these parts with the exception of game.
The rubber In central Africa Is not n tree ,
but a vine , often thrco or four Inches In
diameter. This vine generally elliiiKn up the
tallest trees , and tin. natives often use one
of the vine to ascend the ttco. After the
branches are reached , which In most cases
are at least fifty feet from the ground , the
men proceed to cut the vines away at the
top , Icav Ing only one for their descent and
this one * , If possible , not a rubber vine It
seems strange that the natives cut away
the rubber plants and so destroy them In-
sttad of tapping them , but they arc too lazy
to learn miy other way.
After the vines have fallen they are cut
Into lengths of three or four feet , and the
Jitlco Is collected Into Iron pots. This Is a
tedious Job. The pleco of the vine Is held
over the pot , first by one end , then by the
other until the Juice eeni.es running. Then
the pleco Is cut again to get at any Juice
which may hs o been left In the middle.
After a pot Is nearly full a rest Is taken , and
this Julco Is boiled for nearly two hours and ,
during the boiling proeecs. Is mixed with the
Julco of other vines nnd some lime Juice , so
that the mixture Is more sticky and easier
formed Into balls.
As soon as It cools down sufllclently to be
handled the hardening rubber Is shaped by
winding It at ) first around n stick. Aftci a
bit the stick Is pulled out and the ball Is re
wound to Mulsh It off In some places these
balls weigh three pounds or more each , in
others , five or them make ,1 pound. The
purlt ) of the rubber depend ! ) much upon
how much other Juice has been added The
best and purest Is that obtained from the
Julco without boiling. This Is only found In
the shape of bracelets , because the natives
wind the Julco as It runs out around their
wrist and let It dry there When perfectly
dry It slips off easier. This would be trans
parent rubber If the skin and fingers of the
natives were not so very dirty.
The natives often used to put foreign mib-
stnnceM , such as small stones , palmnuts. nnd
llttlo bullB of grass Into the rubber balls to
make It heavy. They were noon f on nil out ,
and every ball Is now cut through the cen
ter to rovenl Its mixture. Often the rubber
Is burled for name * dnvs because. It draws
thu molsturn from Iho ground , which adds
to the weight. Cheating Is resorted to be-
cnuso the pay Is so poor. It takes a party
of eight or ten men and bovn six lo eight
weeks to gather from eighty tcNlOO pounds of
rubber The valueof this , If nil Is first-
class , Is from 00 to 2f > U yards of cotton cloth
or forty gallona of rutu or three or four
nintlmk RUIH Surclv this Is poor pnv for
this kind of woik
Still , the natives rejoice greatly If the men
from one town return with 100 pounds It
seems like n fortune to them , because they
need no little that civ lilted people crave nnd
pay for. When this little fortune Is spent
nml the weather permits , another trip U
undertaken lo the rubber region.

In beautiful Brussels , in the great palace

that he served In company A , First Michi

been Killed In action , the Kansa ? applicant

company A , he asked If ho Did not rccognirc
him It chanced that the conductor had
been very well acquainted with Hrewer , and
ho at first told the Impqstcr that he did
not know him. Hrower had been born In
Massachusetts , but the lmi > ostcr talked with
a strong Oerman accent. When asked
about this after he announced that he wns
Hrewer , nnd slid that since the war he
had llvel among Hermans so Jong that he
had fallen Into their manner of talking
His long absence since the \\ar he ex
plained by saying that In the second battle
of Hull Uun ho was shot In the head , and
( lint r.fter falling to the. ground ho was
rendered unconscious ; that he was subse
quently found on the battlefield bv some
rebels and forwarded to a hospital at Illch-
mond. but that ho did not knm how Ipng
ho remained there , ' , as he 4iWrr lecovorcd
consciousness until one daj ; , while walking
along a sidewalk , he stumbled and struck
his head with sulllclont force to arouse him
from his stupor. He then discovered , no-
coidlng to his story , that ho was In the
town of Qnlncy , Mich.
USES WHISKY FREELY.
The alleged Hrewer , duilnp the conversa
tion , gave freclv to the conductor of the
contents of i , bottle , nnd when he bavv that
his victim was In a fit condition to make
any sort of acknowledgment that might
bo required , ho'iomovexl any further doubt
that might linger In the clouded brain cf
the conductor by asking.
"Don't jou remember that pig wo killed
while * out foraging nt In West Vlr-
glnln' "
Of course the tipsy conductor remem
bered It , nnd said there was no further
do'ibt In his mind that his genial compan
ion was really his old comrade * . Hi ewer
Ho was then Induced to make affidavit to
this effect , and fiom pointers concerning
other survivors of the company which the
conductor gave the Impostor , the latter was
enabled to procure similar aflldavits from
them , removing any doubt that might ex
ist In their minds by adopting practically
the same tactics which had bc-en no success
ful In the ca3c > of the conductor , only vary
ing the story to one man , uhcm ho told
that ho had been taken prisoner at the second
end battle of Hull Hun.
The affidavits thua obtained were for
warded to the War department On the
atrcngth cf them the iccords of the de
partment were amended as bcforo stated ,
and the alleged Hiowcr was given a regu
larly Issued certificate of discharge. Then
the case , following the customary pro
cedure , was turned over to the pension bu
reau , nnd ur.fi finally referred to Special
Examiner POMICS for investigation.
EASILY EXPOSED.
After an extended and tedious Investiga
tion , the dctall.s of which need not be
enumerated here. Examiner Fosnes thor
oughly exposed the Impostor , whose real
name wau n&ceitnlned to be Fred Hrunlng.
Ho had never been a soldier. The ex
aminer went to N'cw York state mid found
Hrunlng's brother and fnmlly , nnd upon a
pretext Induced the brother nnd another
man to Identify the Impcator. Although
they had not ficen Ilruntng for many years ,
ho hnvlng ran away from homo In 1855 ,
when he crossed tha street dlazannllv .1
short distance away , one nudged the other
and pnld "There goes Fred. "
Hrunlng had a largo scar on his fore
head , ono arm was broken and one leg was
shorter than the other , being fitted out with
an Iron stump Instead of these being evi
dences of In juries received In battle , as ho
had always claimed , they were the result
of his being caught by a belf In a sawmill
in Illinois , where ho was employed aftci
the war. On the day of the second battle of
Hull Hun ho was In jail at Pontlac , Mich ,
for theft. Ho Ilist heard nf Hrewer while
in jail. The authorities finally agreed to
liberate him If ho would shako the dust
of the town fioni his feet , To this he
gladly agreed , ami upon being released went
to the extreme southern part of Michigan ,
where ho was thought to bi a deserter. He
at first bald ho had bcctu litho | | , army , but
when asked in what company and regiment
could not satisfactorily anpwjcr This con .
firmed the suspicions ofthp people and the ]
piovost marshal at Lansing was notified
This oltlcer came and playc l him under ar
rest. When asked his iiaiu ho replied In
broken English
MISTAKE OF AN pFFICEH.
This , although It sounded , like. Drowcr ,
was unintelligible to the officer , who ex
amined his Hut and , finding the name of
Charles E. Hrower , asked the prisoner If
that was his name. Hrunlng , glad to bring
the Inquiry to an end , answered In the
affirmative.
Hrunlng afterword drifted west , finally
bringing up In Kansas In order to maud
well with the residents of that region , where
old soldiers were BO numerous after the
war , he declaied that he had been In the
army , and In tlmo could tpeak of the de
tails til urm > life as glibly arid readily as
nil ) old veteran Many of his now-found
friends had received or were applying for
penalona , and thinking he was all that he
claimed , encouraged him to do the name
Then he- decided to do so and assumed the
naino of Charles 12 Ilrnwer
The case ngalr.n him was tried at To-
pcka and attracted wide. Interest at Iho time
Among the \\Itr.cEsen wan a brother of the
dead holdlcr fiom Connecticut , who testi

KEPT UP UNTIL THU LAST
Hrunlng nttiuuptcd to keep up the decep
tion until the last and during1 the. trial Iho
prosecution exhibited n photograph of the
real Hrewer. who did not nt all resemble the
Importer , the prisoner without limitation
snld"Tint's me" The evidence ngalnsi
him wns o damaging and convincing that
he finally naw that It wns u clr w to longer
deny his Idct'lltv and confessed that ho bad
attempted to defraud the goveinment. Ho
was sentenced to n suitable term In the peni
tentiary.
A rather amusing Incident occurred In con
nection with the application of D.ivld Hed-
dlck for a pension Heddlck wnu n coil

Ono of his corroborating wltnidies was an

which had 300 men OH board-tied up nt n

supei-ior force of rebels and driven back to
the boil. The pursuers stood on the shore
and fired nt the men ns the gtmluat was
forging out Into the stream. Heddlck claimed
that during the firing ho had a finger dhot
off. For this ho wanted a pension
The case was referred to Examiner Fosnra.
In course of time he visited the San Fran
cisco witness and required him to furnish
an additional affidavit detailing In narrative-
form the Incidents connected with the nl-
leged main ing of Heddlck This wns readily
given In accordance with a story which had
doubtless been previously committed to
memory , and then the examiner naked n

"Oh , nbout the same as vours , " replied
