He is Doing.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.
The whereabouts of George M. Pinney,
ex-Clerk in the Naval Paymaster's Office in
| this city, is as puzzling as his wonderful
success in swindling everybody with whom
he came in contact, except General La
Grange, and even he, after Pinney's hegira,
succumbed before little memorandum
book presented by the latter's wife. Pin
ney having been variously located, since
his disappearance from San Francisco, in
divers South American States, in Montana
and elsewhere, it became amatter Of public
| interest to know just where he is. The
Chronicle has therefore made it its disty to
discover the wanderer if possible. The
| following letters show the measure of sue
cess that has attended the efforts that have
been made in this direction

seven different languages. He is an Amer

war" Yours, SLEEPING BEAR.

Pearson calls on him frequently, and they
have wine, cigars and other luxuries for
