CAT CHES RGDBER. THEN GIVES HIM
 PRESENTS
and Suffering Offender ArouSes Pity of People, Who Clothe Him and Give Him Plenty of Food.

LOS ANGELES. June 1S To Miss Maude Raburn. daughter of Walter Auburn. station agent of the South ern Pacific at Acton, belongs the cred it for the capture of Brick Lunaman, husky young Norwegian, with a shock of reddish hair, charged with the robbery of the store of Gabriel Houser at Acton last Friday night.
 Lundman now is in the county jail, and Miss Raburn is a heroine in the eyes of the Aeton-Laneaster people.
 Housers store was robbed Friday night. an unknown barefoot thief talk ing away a quantity of shoes, socks, groceries, cheap jewelry and other ar ticles of merchandise.
 An alarm was spread through the countryside, and at Lancaster, seven miles distant. Lundman was arrested the next day and placed in jail.
 The stolen goods were recovered and returned to the storekeper.
 Saturday night. Lundman tipped up the jail at one corner and crawIed out to freedom. For the second time the alarm of robber loose was bruited abroad. Every one for a radius of twenty miles was on the qui yive, and when Miss Raburn, who has a chick en ranch near Lancaster. saw a sus- picious looking character hanging around her pens she went for help. She summoned a posse in Lancas- ter, and led them back for the man hunt.
 Lundman, warned by their approach. ! fled to the hills, and only after a 1 couple of hours chase was he captur- ed near the summit of Mt. Parker. i where he was surrounded and caught 1 at the point of shotguns.
 | Taken back to Lancaster, Lundman 1 broke down and wept He was pare | footed and his feet were bleeding from ! the chase over the rough hills. With half the town around him, he spoke | his confession and expressed sorrow for his misdeeds.
 l With one accord the townsfolk a moment before eager for his capture, J turned their maledictions to commis- seration. A millionaire autoist driv- i ing through the town. and attracted | by the commotion, started the ball rolling by buying back from the store keeper for s3.50 and giving to the prisoner the shoes which he had stol- en a few nights before, and which had been recovered when he was arrested Another contributed pair of socks, another a hat, and to cap the climax Mrs. Houser. wife of the man who had been robbed, furnished him a square meal
 Houser himself, catching the spirit of the occasion, ended the festivities by treating the captured robber and the rest of the crowd to soda pop.
 Lundman was landed in the county jail in this city last night and will be taken to Lancaster Thursday for preliminary hearing on charge of burglary.

DECLARE PUTNAM NEVER USED
 THE RAZOR
Mean lconoclast Stirs Up a Lot of Bad Feeling Among the Daughters of the American Revolution in Connecticut.

GREENWICH. Conn, June ls.- Members of Putnam Hill chapter. Daughters of the American Revolu. tion, and others who take pride in the existence of the Putnam cottage here, maintained by the D. A. R. as a tea room and museum for Putnam ladies. are much put out by the declaration made by Isaac L. Mead, that Putnam never stopped at the cottage.
 The indignation is added to by further declaration that the old razor which was picked up at the top of Puts hill, and which is now in the possession of Tree Warden HotelIing. was not used by Putnam, and that he was not shaving with it and did not put it in his pocket hurriedly when word came that the British were ap- preaching. dropping it as ha and his horse dashed down the hill
 MT. Mead advances three raason x why he believes that the razor was not Putnam's. In the first place. he says he does not believe that Gen. Putnam ever stayed at the Knapp tavern, now the Putnam cottage Knapp, the keeper of the tavern. he says, was a tory, and that it is not at all likely that when many patriotic families would have been only too proud to entertain the general. that he should have stopped at a hostelry kept by loyalist.
 The second is that in his opinion Putnam never rode down the steps near whose former location the razor was found. His grandfather. Rev. Mark Mead, was told by Gen. Eben- ezer Mead, who witnessed the escape that Putnam went down the incline near the point where the monument to Putnam, which was erected by the D. A. R. now stands.
 The third is that since the general had attended the dance at Pecksland the evening previous. he probably would have been then closely shaven, and would not have had to shave in the morning of his escape It was customary then, says Mir. Mead, for. men to shave only once a week, and that he would have then been en- gaged in removing beard which he probably did not have is ridiculous.

BREAKER FARLEY IN
 DISGUISE
Wears a Wig In San Francisco and Poses As Capitalist Try ing to Buy the United Rail- roads From Calhoun.


 SAN FRANCISCO, June 1s.-The mystery surrounding the identity of James Farley, the professional strike breaker, has been solved at Iast He may be found around the hotels and public places of the city in the per. son of Frank Birch, reputed New York financial agent, who came to San Francisco in April last for the osten- sible purpose of negotiating in be- half Of an eastern syndicate for the purchase of the United Railroads avs tenn. James Farley is bald. whereas the cranium of Frank Birch is well matched. But upon close scrutiny if IS seen that Birch's hirsute covering IS wig or toupee, the removal of which produces stratling change in the wearer's appearance.
 The discovery of the identity of Frank Farley was made at a we'll known restaurant A man who had met Birch more than once and who had discussed with him all sorts of current topics, from strikes to specu- lations, sat at the next table. A treacherous electric light revealed the outline of the wig and in an instant the picture changed. under challenge Birch. or Farley, admitted everything.
 It is the greatest joke on the town that has been recorded in years. This same Farley, in the guise of Million aire Frank Birch for two months past, has been familiar figure at the pop ular cafes and has pEcticed his de eeption in the presence and under the very eyes of that coterie of wisest men about town. He has been ac- companied almost everywhere by Thorndyke Mullally, who has acted as his guide and sponsor; yet he has es. capped detection. James Farley New York detective and strike breaker, through the simple exercise of his wits with the assistance of a wig, has fooled all san Francisco from one end to the other.
 AS Frank Birch, the strike breaker arrived here the last week of April He was accompanied by Judge D. H Agnew of the surrogate court of New York" Robert J. Clark and a man named Spencer. There is no Judge Agnew of the surrogate court of New York, according to an eastern dispatch and no judge of that name ever pre-. sided over any New York court
 They brought letters of introduction to John D. Mackenzie, the eX-harbor commissioner, and Rudolph Spreckeis, and pretty soon it was noised around that they were out here to negotiate for the purchase of the United Rail- roads. They saw Calhoun, Mullally and the other street railroad officials, of course, and these men helped out matters by not attempting to deny the speculative suggestions put to them by the inquisitive. They hired automobiles. bought wine everywhere they went and made friends at a rapid pace. Once it was rumored that they represented Thomas r. Ryan and that the multi-millionaire controlled an eastern syndicate which desired to

Gibson Copper Company.

There is something almost sensa- tional in the operations of the Gibson company. The company. whose rise in mining circles has been something phenomenal, expects to earn close to s120,000 during the present month. Since this time last month shipments of ore to the Old Dominion smelter have been doubled and there are now thirty-seven teams, or 225 horses, haul ing ore from the camp, eighteen miles away from the smelter. Daily ship ments average about eighty tons of ore, which runs better than 9 per cent copper, and it is all sulphide, which makes it more than welcome to the Old Dominion.
 The Gibson company is working 150 men at the mines, where more ore is being daily extracted than can be shipped, while development is open. ing new bodies of ore on three levels. Work on the new three-compartment shaft is well under way and if the large supply of hoisting machinery is not delayed on the road too long the shaft will be completed in several months.

principal consideration in most cases.
 It should not be forgotten, however, that this is not the only road that is comparatively, if not wholly, free from accidents, although it probably heads the list. On some of the big double tracked lines of the Atlantic Coast serious accidents are not common and trains are generally on schedule time. As a matter of fact, the elimination of the single track may remove much of the danger, though not all, not only by rendering the head-on collision inn possible, but by permitting the elimi- nation of the face-point switch. On a double track the functions of the con ductor are hardly so great, as there are not so many dispacher's orders to handle. But here. also, efficient care ful help is needed.

Aluminium.

Aluminium, it is generally known, Is
a metallic element found in clay and
Is the same material Of which rubies,
sapphires, emery and alum are made.
1t enters into the composition Of a
large number of other materials, and 1t
is estimated that in its various COM
pounds aluminium forms about one
twelfth of the crust of the earth. Every
brick in every building is said to be 80
per cent aluminium. 1t is produced by
the decomposition of clay, which is a
salt composed of silicic acid combined
with aluminium. The aluminium is
separated from the silica by the appli-
cation of electricity. Separation has
never been successfully done in any
other way. Boston Globe.
