A Lucky Man.

From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette
1t is not always the man who suffers
for his country who reaps reward. At the
same time it isn't always somebody's fault
that men who merit reward are not re-
warded. The present governor Of the La
drone Islands did nothing to merit special
recognition but he happened to be at the
place when an American was needed and
being the only American or the ground
he was given the full, benefit of the cir
cumstance. Francisco Portusach was for
merly a resident of San francisco, and at
that time was employed for about year
as elevator man in the Chronicle building.
That was in 1892. Four Years ago, on the
Endorsement and recommendation of JUS
tice of the Peace Barry, he attempted to
secure the appointment as janitor in the
new city hall at San Francisco. but did
not land the position. lie thea departed
for the Ladrones. When the United States
took possession of thdt group o. islands On
June p last Portasact was the only resi-
dent American citizen, and was accordingly
put in charge of affairs after the Spanish
governor and garrison had surrendered and
had removed to the transports in which
they were taken on to Cayite. Governor
Portusach is a native of the Island Of
Guam of the Ladrons group, and IS about
thirty years of age. He became an Ameri-
can citizen during his residence IN Ca!ifor-
MIA. His father is q. full -blooded SFaniard
but his mother is native Islander.
Governor Portusach is very much in luck
