Washington, , D. C May 18. An tm
porlant change Jn naval circles takes
nlace this week, when : Kear Aamiru
Willard H. Brownson. recently In com.
. mand of the Asiatic station, assumes his
new duties M chief of the bureau ef
navigation. , Bear Admiral Brownson
succeeds Rear Admiral George A. Con-
. ; verse, who wag retired for a gej nearly a
year ago. Rear Admiral Converse asked
to be relieved of his official duties at
the time of his retirement, but the pres.
ident asked him to remain for a time,
as it was deemed inadvisable then to
withdraw Rear Admiral Brownson from
the command of the Asiatic station.
Rear Admiral Brownson, the new chief
of the bureau of navigation, has a high
reputation in the navy for efficiency.
He was born In New Tork and graduat
ed from the naval academy In ls(.
Since then he has seen all kinds of serv
ice. He has done scientific work for the
coast survey, was in the hydrographlc
meeting of the police committee of the
exeoutlve board last Saturday ana uur
ton was the only one who did not put In
an appearance. , -
. Chief Gritsmaeher, acting on the the
ory that the notification to Burton may
have , gone astray, again addressed
communication to him.- The Insurance
agent came to police headquarters yes
terday morning, and Informed the chief
that he was in a quandary wnat action
to- take. He : had won' his bet without
difficulty, but was undecided whether
to give up his present vocation for that
or a policeman. i
.'That man would make an excellent
officer,"' -said Chief Gritsmaeher, in
discussing the matter," and I have given
him a few. days to. consider the matter."
Jn Mi application .filed with Secretary;.-
Mcpherson of the civil - service
commission , Burton .declares . that he
"baa been a student 'of human nature
for a number of", years, and as a com
mercial . traveler ( haa , come In contact
with all .classes .of people" to demon
strate his fitness for ; the police busi
ness. "Burton also stated that ne was
earning 1100 . "salary per-' month ' and
commissions. i . - '. -."..."'

V Tough With Pirates.
Tew off icera now in the '. navy have
had more stirring adventures than haa
. Rear Admiral Brownaon. When he was
. a midshipman in the old Mohegan, on
the Pacific station, he had a brush with
a gang of pirates that was quite aa ex
citing and sensational as any. chapter In
yellow fiction. The Mohegan was cruis
ing near Maatlan, Mexloo, when the
cltisens of that port appealed to Cap
: tain Lowe, her commander, for protec-
- tlon against a freebooter who waa kill
. Ing Innocent cltisens, looting unprotect
ed towns and committing depredations
all along the coast 1 ;
V Lowe promised to look after the pi
rates, and soon located them somewhere
In an almost Inaccessible cluster of la
goons. When Captain Lowe discovered
the . snug harbor of the pirates he de
tailed . Midshipman ' Brownson, with a
boat's crew, to hunt them down. When
Brownson reached their refuge the pi
rate schooner appeared to be deserted.
She looked aa if ahe had been abandoned,
but the moment the Tankee sailors clam-
- bered Over the side of the . vessel tney
were attacked by a volley from the
limbs of the trees and other dense vege-
- tatlon around them. The pirates, find'
Ing that they were pursued, had ar

where they could command the deck of
their schooner.
. outlaws Marooned.
Realising he could not capture the
culprits under such a disadvantage.
Brownson conceived a plan that was
equally effective and much aafer. He
ordered his men below decks to escape
the galling fire that waa pouring down
upon them, and in a few momenta start
ed a doxeri or more fires in the hold of
. the vessel. As soon as they were fairly
ablase Jie gathered . up : his dead and
wounded, hurried them Into hia boat and
got away from the scene aa rapidly aa

ing the vessel waa a mass of flames and
the pirates were marooned in the swamp
witnout ammunition or rood. All their
auppllea and the booty they had brought
away from their looting expedltlona
were consumed with the ship, and the
local authorities were able to capture
