Respe NATHAN-DOHRMA' —_———————— PILAR'S BROTHER. Wrecked on the Barbary Coast and Appeals to Uncle Sam. A. B. Pllar, representing himself to be a brother of Gregorio del Pilar 1pino general, told Secret Service Agent Hazen yesterday a weird story of adven- ture on the Barbary coast His tale was to the effect that having a 20-dollar piece In his pockets and ex- periencing a consuming thirst, he drifted into a dive at the corner of Jackson aud Kear streets, where he met some ange ladies, who made themselves so ble that he opened three bottles of 4 wine and succeeded in spending The bartender, finding that Pllar was a ~good thing,” gave him a counterfeit dol- lar and a counterfeit half-dollar in change and refused to exchange them for good money. Pllar wanted the bartender arrested, hut Mr. Hazen did not think he could make out a case, there being no witnesses to prove that the bad money was actually passed. Operator Cronin, however, went to the saloon with Pilar and h saloon m to give Pilar good : the coun Pilar say.

R. J. | Hancock, & well-known business man, was the victim and is congratulating him- self over the fact that he did not recelve the full tremendous force of electricity with which the wires are charged. He was standing on Kearny street and touched, unintentionally, the lower por- tion of an arc lamp with the steel rod of his umbrella, The circuit was completed instantly and he received a shock which felled him to the ground. He recovered from the shock quickl but as a re- minder of his narrow escape from death there {s a furrow seared in his thumb. The umbrella he carrled had a small steel rod. This made a splendid conduc- | tor, especially when the sidewalks are | damp.
