several weeks aeo ho met Kd. Shlndel,
formerly of Tnmaqua, and who was one ot
tho pionoors of tho Pike's I'cak gold
hunlore. Ed. was well to do at ono time.

to-day a poor man and is now poddlinu
linwaro. lie married a charming young
lady in his rirosueroui days. Sho was the
aiuhter of a once prominent coal operator
of Pennsylvania. Such is fato.
Mr. Fowlor also met Detective Mo
Pailan while in Denver and was treated
royally by him. McParlan inquired bs
to the wolfaro of many Schuylkill county
boys. In speaking of tho Mollle Maguire
murdors ho told Mr. Fowler that John P
Jones' life could havo boon saved if certain
police had attonded to thoir business, as
the filet rs wore notified in lime that Jones
had been picked out lor a victim.
In 18G1 Col. Fowler, in company with
his cousin, N. D. Fowlor, and two others,
visittd Washington. In ordering dinner
tho" Colonel called for chickon. Aftor
waiting some time ho hoard a commotion
in the back yard. Upon making inquiries
as to the causo ho learned that tho chicken
had objected to being killed and cookod
and that II he desired to dine on "chick"
ho would havo to wait until a shoriff't
Dosse could get tho fowl within tho doad
lino: The Colonel counter mandod the
ordor.
At tho inauguration of Lincoln on March
4th, 1801, thoipokesman of tho Now York
Bepublican delegation sfked Andrew
Johnson, tho newly olected Vico President,
his opinion of James Buchanan, lie ro.
plied that "ho novor Bpent ammunition on
dead ducks." Col. Fowler hoard this con
versation and is worth recording since it
has boon asserted, and is belioved to this
day by many, that this remark was intended
for the late lion. John W. Kornoy.
Bcforo tho wsr Col. Fowlor was captain
of ono of tho best cavalry companies in the
st'ile, connectod with tho militia. It com
prised some of tho leading citizens of
Tamaqua. Col, Fowler tondorod the
services of tho company to Simon Cam
oron, but the offer was declined, on the
ground that it would tske too long to drill
tho horses and otborwico prepare the com
pany for active service. Tarasqua had
three infantry oompanies, tho German
Light Infantry, Coptain Beck: Scott
Kiflof, Captain Lobo, and Jackson Guards,
Captain Uiggins, nnd tho services of all
wero accepted. They servod threo months.
A story is told of tho German Light In
fantry. During a parade on battalion day
tho company appeared in white breeches.
Tho manoouvros took place on Dutch Hill.
Thero was always plenty of boor an tap on
such days. On ono occasion somo one put
croton oil in tho beer and the result was
most disastrous.
