In (ho probslillltles or llio hoy found at
Spriiigfield, Ohio, bclnj; liis son Charlie,
Mr, Christian K. Uom replied, tnosl emphat
ically : "There's nothing in It at all," aud
then went on to say that lie had advUcd the
parties having the boy In charge not to bring
him to rhlludelphla. In spile of this nd
monition Mr. Terry llcchlel, who was In
strumental In having the boy arrested, start
cd on Friday evening from Springfield, ac
companied by Sheriff Collin, In whose cus
tody the child had been placed by llio Pro
bate Court, and the boy himself. A tele
gram preceded tho party, and, In conse
quence, at 10 o'clock on Saturday evening
there was a multitude of people, gathered at
the Berks street depot. When the train ar
rived, over the Lehigh Valley ltoad, there
was n grand rush to get a glimpse of tho lit"
lie fcltDw, and when tho party landed they
were so jostled and crowded that it was with
difficulty they reached a street car. They
finally reached the Continental Hotel, were
shown to a room, aud then commenced the
questioning and cross-questioning, the pull
ing of hair, investigation of scars and the
many other tortures the poor boy has been
compelled to submit to since his arrival.
Mr. Hoss was not at the depot to meet the
party, nor did he come at all to tho hotel.
Chlel of Police Jones visited the room, and
as Mr. Dechtel puts It, "stepped up to the
child, put his hand on his head, bent it
back and looked directly at the scar over
his left eye, and then stepped back. The
officer who was with him luLed If the scar
was there, and the Chief said yes, and then
took his departure."
The Ohio visitors were up bright and ear
ly yesterday morning, and after breakfast
took the carj for Mr. Henry Lewis' resi
dence, on Walnut street, where there was an
old housekeeper the family being absent
who had known Charlie Hoss from liis infan
cy. "CHABLIE'' IX (innMANTOW.V.
When tho child was shown to her she was
at once struck with the resemblance, but
when sho asked him his name and he re
plied '"Gustus Levering," she immediate
ly took tho ground that it could not be
Charlie Uoss, and tho cars were again taken
for the Oermantown depot, Ninth and
Green streets. It was no sooner reached and
the boy taken through the main entrance to
wards the train than some keen-eyed gamin
shouted at the top of biishrill voice, "There
goes Charlie Itoss I" This was the signal,
and seats had hardly been taken before the
crowd began to assemble and the question
ing aud pushing commenced again. Every
body seemed to be impressed with the idea
that it was certainly the right one this time.
Nobody thought of calling him anything
but Charlie. Pennies, nicklcs, cakes and
candy were pressed on him, until he had
stock enough for oue small store and cash
euough to start another. The youngster was
delighted with the novelty of his 'position,
accepted all presents and shouted at the boys
at the top of his voice. Many Oermantown
people gathered around inside the car and
one and all without exception pronounced
the likeness a wonderful one. Colonel
Miles, who resides a short distance fiom the
Boss mansion, asked to look at the boy's
ears, and quickly said : "Those are Charlie
Boss' ears. I can see where they have been
bandaged." Mr. Bechtel brightened up at
this remark and replied : "Yes, sir, and that
ain't all ; he has all the marks that have
been described as being on Charlie Boss,
and if this aint the right one bo' will never
be found by photograph or description."
Soon after the train steamed out and sped
on its eventful trip, amidst a general waving
of handkerchiefs and cries of "good-bye,
Chailie." "God bless you, I hope you are
going home." The boy seemed greatly ela
ted and returned all courtesies shown vith
much vigor and enthusiasm. Germantown
was reached'and here another crowd bad as
sembled. The train stopped but a few min
utes and passed on to the Washington Lane
station. The decisive moment was now
r.lnsA nt hftnrl. nnd or thpv nllirhtMl (mm tli
cars the, entire party, with the exception of
little Gus. plainly indicated their unMual
interest and nervousness.
TRYING TO MAKE HIM ROCOGNIZE.
A procession was formed, Colonel Miles
electing himself as chief marshal, and deci
ding that it would be best to let Gus toddle
along up the hill and past the entrance to
the grounds of the Boss residence to Bee if
be would recognize in anyway the surround
ings. It may have been a good idea, but
the men, women and children, who came
from all quarters, scampering down lanes
and across fields, soon became so thick that
the boy, even if he bad been ever to much
disposed to look for the place or instructed
as to its appearance, could not see jive feet
from him in any direction, and passed by
the gate without giving the slightest sign of
recognition. He was then taken further up
the line to the residence of Mr. Homer, of
Homer, Collady & Co., and here tho crowd
became so aggressive in their pushing to get
a look at bim that he becamo frightened and
lost his temper. He burst out into a hys
tericle fit of crying and would not be coin
forted. The ladles at Mr. Homer's tried to
pacify bim, at the same time scanning his
features closely and expressing tho view
that it was Charlie Boss beyond a doubt,
Mr. Boss, Mrs. Boss and the children in
the meantime were taking matters very
calmly and coolly, sitting on the porch, the
'lady of the house conversing with Mr. Bora'
brothers about family matters aud society
gossip in general, while Mr. Boes himself,
was explaining that he did not meet the
8pringfield gentlemen at the depot because
he knew, they would not be satisfied unless
his wife had Been the child. As fur hinuelf
he knew that it was not bis boy, the clrcum
stances attending bis discovery satisfied him
that it could not be he. About the marks

THE cn0WI AT Sill. ROSS' HOUSE.
Before they got thero 300 or 400 people
had entered the grounds, nnd, trampling
over flower-beds and the lawn, were stmg'
glina; for a eight, and as Uus wat taken up
tho walk on all sides could be heard, "that's
him ; that's Charlie, Boss." Upon reaching
tho porch Mr. Bos was apparently moro
Intent upnn keeping tho Intruders back than
In looking at tho boy, and when he was In
troduced to SherifTCoinu, invited him, Mr.
Uechtcl aud n few others up stairs to see
Mrs. Boss. The mother was found seated
at the second story front window, and as the
boy entered turned slowly towards him, nnd
without displaying any emotion whatever
simply looked at him, Mr. Bos took him
by the hand, and pointing to his wife, ques
tioned: "Do you know this lady?" Gns
hung his head, put up his arm mid did not
answer. "Don't you know this little girl ?"
meaning his daughter Sophie, nnd still no
reply. "Don't you know this little boy,
Walter?" Uui looked up, and with a know
ing Bhako of the hcad.retorted, "He couldn't
beat mo running." Mr. Boss continued his
queries, and tho boy in reply said ho had
three sisters, Helen, Jennie and Mollle, and
two brothers, Clam and Johnny. That they
lived at Aunt Tlllle'snnd that he lived there
too. "I lived in a big old log hut, nnd in
another hut. That was In St. Mary's. My
namo is Gustus Levering. I ain't got no
other name." Mr. Boss asked him whom
he lived with, and ho replied: "I live with
Mr. Coffin now. I used to livo with Mrs.
Wilson." "Where Is your mother?" con
tinued Mr. Boss. "I ain't going to tell you
everything. I told you once before my
mother lived in St. Mary's," and then tho
little fellow broko down and began crying.
While ho was being quieted Mr. Bechlcl
asked Mrs. Boss if it was her child. "No,
sir," sho answered in n decided tono, "it is
not. I knew it was not as son as I saw him
It looks a little like him. The cheek bones
are ni t his, bis fico is too wide, tho eyes nro
a great deal lighter than Charlie's. Charlie
had very small wrists, and this boy's are
large and thick." Mr. Boss was of tho same
opinion, and went down stairs and told tho
crowd that it was not Charlie Boss. Th:s
was within twenty minutes after the child
had been brought to tho house. When Gus
had been pacified Mr. Boss continued his
questioning, but failed to elicit any reply
that showed in anyway that the boy had
ever been iu Germantown or knew anything
of the Boss family. His recollection did
not go back further than St. Mary's, and,
nfter nearly an hour's stay, the Sheriff and
Mr. Bechtel returned to the Continental
with the boy, who was in high glee at tho
thought of leaving the Boss house.
WHO THE BOY IS.
Mr. Bechtel, who has borne the expense
of this trip, stated last evening that it was
at his instance that the .Levering child was
arrested. It was living In Springfield with
a woman named Mrs. Mary Wilson for
about six months, and his suspicions had
been aroused for some time that it was not
her child, and obtaining a picture of Charlie
Bos3 be saw a most decided resemblance.
He at once communicated with Mr. Boss,
but could not get his consent to have an ar
rest made. The woman Wilson told this
story about tho child : "I have had it for
five months. He was given to me by a man
named Levering. He was a widower, and
had this child, when he married a friend of
mine. They knew I bad no children, and
gave me Gus, and since that time I have
never had a scratch of a pen from them, and
don't know where they are. Levering came
from St. Mary's Ohio."
"I most undoubtedly think that it is Char
lie Boss," continued Mr. Bechtel, "and I
am convinced more and more of it since I
have seen Mr. Boss. Why he seemed to bo
so thoroughly impressed with the idea that
this was not his boy, before he saw him,that
It looked to mo as if ho wasn't much inter
ested. Mr. Boss' principal, as he says him
self, is that there must be some chain of ev
idence connecting any child with the dead
Mosher and Douglas before ho will believe
it is Charlie. Ho has an idea that his boy
is still somewhere near the sea, and that's
where be wiJI be found. Mr. Boss says
that Charlie had no mark nor scars. Now,
when they had a by ou' ?r la8.t
" ""
by marriage with the Rosa family, received
word from Mr. Ross that there were two
marks that he had reserved for identifica
tion, and these were a little scar, about a
half-Inch lorg, over the left eye and both
ears lopping over at the top and pressed in at
the base, as if they had been bandaged. You
can see for yourself that Gus has both these.
Look at that cowlick dropping over his fore
head, and at the light, curly hair, darker at
the roots, as Mr. Ross himself described in
his circular. If this ain't Charlie Ross he
will never find him, Of course the boy
after three years, wouldn't know him, and
I don't believe ho would know the boy."
Sheriff Coflin and Mr. IJechlel were both
a little nettled at the manner in which they
had been received by Mr. Ross, and said
that although he had been very gentlemanly,
it wasn't Western hospitality to keep a
dinner table standing until visitors had left,"
and they thought that the child should have
been kept by the family for a few days, so
that they could fully determine whether he
was Charlie or not; but ''Mr. and Mrs.
Ross were so listless about the whole aUair
that we didn't care about making the ofl'er."
The Springfield gentlemen are undecided
when they will return, but say that they do
not desire to see Mr. Ross again. Timet,

Last Christmas Scroti! U made its appearance In
my system, large running ulcers appearing on me,
as follows : oue on each of my arms ; emu on my

which ate Into the skull bone; ono on my left leg,
which becamo so bad that two phys.lcl.ins came to
amputate- the Umb, though upon coiwultatlon con
cluded not to do so aa my whole body waa full of
Scro.uta ; they deemed It advisable to cut tho sore
which was painful beyond d script Ion, and theie waa
a quart of matter run from the tore.
The physicians nil gave me up to die, nnd said
they could do no more tor me. Doth of my legs were
drawn up to my seat, and It was thought if J did. get
