WASHINGTON, Sept. IA rival Tichborne
claimant, who lives in California, served in the
federal army and navy during the late war, has
fled an application in the Pension Office for a
pension on account Of wounds received while in
the army. He has friend in town who says
that with the money which he hopes to obtain as
arrears of pension, if he should be granted a
pension--some 50, 900 or So, 5O0-he hopes to
establish the fact that he is Sir Richard Itch
borne. At the request OF this friend the claim

The story the claimant tells is that while on his
way to Australia, after he left home he was
shpwrecked an island, from which a passing
ship took him and his companions to San Fran.
cisco. Thence he drifted to New York but did
not attempt to go to England being half unwill,
ing, half ashamed to 60 home. At the breaking
out of the war he enlisted under an assumed
name in the navy. As a man of intelligence
and unusual refinement he was we'll regarded
by all of the officers except the captain
Of his ship. The latter treated him
so badly that he deserted. He then married in
New York city respectable but uneducated
girl Of the lower class. Feeling still more
estranged from his home he again enlisted. this
time In the army and under another assumed
name. which he still bears. He was twice
wounded, once all the fingers of his left hand
we're shot away, and then shot in the body The
result of his wounds was a temporary aberra-
ton of mind, during which he wandered back to
New York. and the war was over before he
could return to his regiment. So he stands a
technical deserter from the army. After the
war he took his wife and went to California
There he hired out as day laborer or ranches in
Southern California, and there he has been ever
since. he Is now skilled laborer, and has
charge of the work on certain ranch. He
told nobody his story. He mad given up all idea
of ever returning to England. His health was
shaken, his habits had changed his wife and his
poverty were obstacles. But few months ago
q lady visiting at the ranch learned his secret.

Congress passed an act authorizing the Post
master-general to lease buildings occupied by
third-class postofices. The amount of the ap.
preparation for leasing postofice buildings, how
ever, was only $3.50, 600. or just about enough to
defray the expense of leasing buildings for

consequently the Postmaster-pene has

There are 1,728 thirds class Offices, and it is
