Several additional particulars have
been developed within the last few days
about the rascally, swindling methods of
Ascher and Loewy, the fugitive Ger
man comedians. In the story published
about them Friday morning, it was
stated that Loewy had secured 5000 of
$400 borrowed by a poor widow on Orange
street, by mortgaging her little home.
This was mistake. Loewy got away
with the whole $780, and had previously
borrowed $3.50 from the woman, so that
she loses $500. The mortgage transac-
tion was not consummated until the day
before he left. Then the woman gave
Loewy the check for $4OO which she
had just received. She had endorsed it
and asked her dear friend to have it
cashed. The check was cashed all right
on Saturday morning, but the coin left
town on the noon train, never to return.
The widow, who was infatuated with

drels had left. When, however, she
was convinced that she had been robbed

her. She dressed, rode down town, and
went to the soap and picture store on
Fifth street, which Ascher and Loewy
made their headquarters. She managed
to obtain the key. entered the shop, and

laundry compounds, as we'll as the pict-
ure samples, scrupulously in order. One
of the engagements was made from a
photograph of Bernard, showing the fu-
gitive reprobate. This picture the wo-
man took with her and left it at a
framer's to be placed in sumptuous
frame and passepartout. She said she
would hang it in her parlor. It is sup
posed from these curious actions, as we'll
as other eccentric behavior, that the un-
fortunate woman has suffered greatly
from the shock of discovering the man
ner in which she had been duped.
The poor little fellow Wild,

savings, was gulled in a finished man

self-esteem by telling him that he had
great talent for the stage. At the same
time the comedian promised to develop
that talent if Wild would place himself
under his tutelage. In this manner he
wormed himself into Wild's confidence
and pocketbook. The young man was
forever trotting around with Ascher.
When the climax approached, and the
plans had been laid to run away Satur-
day noon, the question arose how to get
rid of Wild, whose presence had become
bore and danger. Ascher's fertile
mind did not hesitate for solution. He
made out bogus bill for $50 against a
bogus man at bogus address in Pasa-
dena, told Wild that the account was
still outstanding from the theatrical
venture, and that it ought to be col
lected. Wild at once offered to go to
Pasadena, especially when Ascher prom
ised him the greater part of the
money as q part payment on his in
debtedness. While Wild was wearing
out his own shoe leather and the pa
tience of other people looking for the
imaginary debtor, Ascher and Loewy, at
their leisure, packed their trunks and
silently stole away.
