Olympia, Waah., August 13. A
prtiHa rnjiiosontiitive haa juHt returned
from tlio burued diatrict ueur Suiiiinit,
woat uf here. Muuh timber io laid to
wiihUi, but uuluHg heavy winds spring
up the auttlura fuel ooulldunt that the
worst ia over. lu the logging camps
of Mason county tho niuu are still
guarding ugainat dying embers, while
othora are rebuilding Imrned-out
camps. Tho big fire hag readied about
twelve miles from here, where the
flames have full play and tiro raging
nil tho way t Klnni, over large terri
tory on both aides of the road. .Several
ranches are in (lunger and the occu
pants are using every meuns iu their
power for protection from the flumes.
Iu most canes they are fighting the lire
with fire, and many of Jthem have bur
ied their valuables, clothing, eto , in
order to save them iu cusej,thcy are
obliged to flue. Several shingle mills
are in imminent danger, the only hope
of salavtion being that the wiud will
not apriug up before raiu sets in.
The residents of Summit, a small
settlement supported by the shingle
industry, have had a most exciting ex
perience. They auy the flumes came
upon thorn with the speed of a race
horse, and in a bewildering whirl of
blazing bark, limbs and leaves, nil
houses, with the exception of the mill
and dryhoiiHO dissuppeared. The men
were foored into the mill to escape the
fierce heat, and hud the mill taken fire,
they all would huve been cremated.
They oonld not live out from cover.
One man tried to save his household
effects and stayed by the Are until
others had sought sheltor. He finally
started to retreat, but fell between the
house and the mill. Several men rush
ed out and dragged him inside.
Houses were burned to the ground be
fore the men could dig trenches to bury
clothing and personal effects.
The loss of the fine timber is indefi
nite and many large bodies of school
lands, belonging to the state are bumed
ovor.
TO PEOPLE THE DESERT.
Immeitau flchemn of Number or Kiiat
eru CnpltHllata.
San Francisco, August 13. The Ex
aminer says a number of Eastern capi
talists are iu this city bard at work on
a sohomer which, if carried out, means
the revolution of the fruit industry of
the country, and perhaps a business
boom such as the state has never seen.
The scheme is nothinsg less than the
reclamation of the Colorado desert by
turning the waters of the Colorado
river over it. But that is ouly part of
the great scheme. The compauy has a
grunt of 1,500,000 acres in Mexico.
Ulythe'g famous principality lies on
the western edge, uud it is proposed to
take part of the waters of the Colorado
river onto that immense territory too.
As outlined, the plan comprehends
the development of the greatest irriga
tion system in the two Americas and
in the end cheap fruit
The promoters evidently mean busi
ness, for they have just handed the
Southern Pacifio Compauy a chock for
11,500,000 iu return for its title to the
alternate sections of land in the Salton
basin. The land turned over foots up
something like 45,000 acres. The pur
chase was decided ou as the best meth
od of forever settling any question
that might arise over titlos. ,
Principally, Eastern capital is be
hind the scheme. John C. Beatty.who
has handled more land in the South
west than any two men on the conti
nent, is the general manager of the
scheme. He got the idea some years
ago by watching the efforts of Million
aire Blythe to colonize his big Mexican
grants. Interested with Beutty in the
enterprise are such men as James Lin
ton and Honry A. Pierce, of Provi
dence, R. L, and P. McLean, of New
York.
The scheme was started some ten
years ago and constant hard work dur
ing all that time has simply brought it
to the present stage, where the prelim
inary work of turning the soil for the
canal has only just begun. Over fo0,-
000 were spent in surveys before the
promoters were assured they could
carry out the irrigation system con
templated. Then a hard buttle had to
be fought in congress to capture cer
tain government lands which were ab
solutely essential to the success of the
plan. Agreements had to be made with
Mexico and big corporations that held
certain rights on the American side.
All those obstacles huve been cleared
awuy and now laborers are to work on
me canai. 11 hii goes wen me wawr
will be running iu it before the cud of
next year.
The company has figured that with-
in a few years it will have at least
300,000 farmers on the land. This
would mean the handling of an im
mense volume of increased business for
that section of the state. The company
is on the eve of sending agents through
all the Eastern states with a view to
inducing colonists to come out
Colonizing the irrigable land in ten-
acre patches or more does not end the
scheme by any means. A system of
stores will be opened through the val
ley and goods will be sold to the col
onists at a figure barely above cost
rates.

CAMPOS IN HAVANA.
Veslf nliiy lla llevleweil a Itmly ut

Havana. August 13. Early
Vol
this
morning immonso crowds began to in
vii do tho Farquo do la Iulque to .be
present at the review of 15,000 Havana
volunteers who were going Into the
field. Tho oity was gaily deoorittod,
and thousands of ladies were 011 the
streets and on the balconies overlook
ing the route uf the parade. At 8
o'clock CiiDtuiu-Generul Martinez de
Campos arrived at the park, accom
panied by his staff. General Ardrius,
the governor, and his secretary, L'alvo
Mnnez, preceded the volunteers.
This was the first apieurttucu of Mar
shal Campos in public since the buttle
of Peralejo, the name by which the
battlo between Mauzauillo aud Bay
amo of July 13, iu which Gouoral San
toeildes was killed, has come to be
called. Marshal Campos is un enemy
of personal demonstrations. Neverthe
less, ho was received by all the oolo
uels aud officers of the volunteers, while
fifteen bunds played a grand march.
The police were not able to rostrain
tho crowds from rushing over the
troop barriers to greet the general,
cheering Spain and shouting acclama
tions for the conqueror of Pcralojo. The
enthusiasm was indescribable, and
General Campos was nover reoeived
with a more kindly demonstration by
the people.
After he hud received the volunteers
General Campos delivered a patriotic
speech. He said the volunteers were
going to protect tho plantations and
property which are threatened with
burning- by a mob whose ouly motto is
destruction, when they ought to be, as
native Cubans, tho first to defend the
property. The voluuteers left immedi
ately by express train for Villiar.
Lieutenant-Colonel Rodau, with 800
troops aud artillery, left Bayamo to
protect a convoy which was transported
by the river Cttute. In El Judio, near
Coralito, he surprised the insurgents
with a dischargo of rifle shots by the
vanguard and with five shots from the
artillery. The insurgents lost ten
killed and twenty-six wounded,
were dispersed to the mountains.
and
ANOTHER DRY SUNDAY.
So New Nor Interesting Features De
veloped In New York.
Now York, August 13. Many new
and interesting features iu the fight of
the saloon-keepers against the police,
which were promised last Sunday, did
not materalize and the day simply fell
in line with other Sundays which have
intervened since the reform polioo
board took hold of the mnnioipal ad
ministration. It was a pretty dry day,
but a shade pleasauter, for the thirsty,
who have learned the scheme, secured
drinks from an apparently closed sa
loon. For the stranger aud the unin
Itlated ttie day was as dry as any" Otfaettn'ylrJJtxl WKo out TouSTwTir ahe'fll
the past half dozen Sundays.
Few of the dealers took advantage
of the privilege of keeping their places
open which has lately been decided as
legal, provided liquors are not given
away or sold. The most notable in
stance was that of Steve Brodio, who
hud no end of trouble in carrying on a
charitable enterprise .in his saloon.
Brodie was giving away lemonade aud
taking a collection for a free ice f uud,
wheu the police arrested him for break
ing the Sabbath law, but was promptly
discharged by Magistrate Cornell.
Afterwards he was arrested twi 3e, but
each time was released and resumed
business.
Inillaii AUotmentn at floldendale
Goldendale, Wash., August 13. W.
R. Dunbar, United States land com
missioner, has been very bnsy of lute
making out Iudian allotment applica
tions, under the act of February, 1887,
and amended February, 1891. It seems
many of the Indians who entered laud
under the Iudian homestead law huve
defaulted and are now compelled to
avail themselves of the allotment act
Lnst evening Chief Bob Wah-we-ess,
who is the present chief of the Turn
water tribe of Klickitats, appeared be
fore the land commissioner aud applied
for entry under the allotment act. The
chief had to forfeit the homestead priv
ilege because be whs unable to raise
the fee for making final proof, which
wes less than $10. Mr. Dunbar says
under the allotment act no fees will
be required and he believes Uncle Sam
is growing to realize the helplessness
of the poor ignorant Iudiau, who is
fast passing away.
The Asylum Tragedy,
Chicago, August 13. Superintend
ent Morgan, of the Cook county asy
lum for the insane, said today that he
had secured considerable new evidence
regarding the killing of George Pucik,
Friday, and that it pointed strongly to
the equal guilt of Attendants Ander
son and Oough. The superintendent
refused to make known what the evi
dence was, saying that if it became
public at this time it might have the
effect of quieting persons expected to
give further evidence. Morgan said
he proposed to leave no stone unturned
1 10 onvict Anderson and Oough, if
Hnfflci.;nt evidence could be secured
jf()r tnat pnrpo9e. Dr. McOrew, the
j hospital physician, savs that this is
; not the first time thev have been irniltv
ot gross cruelty to patients. He says
that he has reported to the officials,
but that political influence has always
prevented their discharge.
y
The Canadian Rehool Question.
Winnipeg, August 13. Premier
Greeuway stated today that the latest
communication from the Ottawa gov
ernment on the school question is that
j it is not be considered until after har
vest. It is inferred that should the
I harvest be safely gathered Greenway
I may appeal to the people on the ques
tion. In the present temper of the
j people such a move would assuredly
result in tireenway's being given an
other four years in offloe.
A .other Indian Hunt.
Boise, Idaho, August 13. Informs
t'"n comes from Owyhee county that
the Bannock Indians, together with
the Dock-valley Indians, are going into
Juniper valley to slaughter deer. They
killed 1,500 there last fall for their
bides, and trouble was only averted by
the Indians being called back to the
reservation. The settlers announce
that they will not permit the Indians
to bunt there.
UN ISSUE WITH JAPAN
Right to Search American
j Vessels During a War.
SITUATION AT ONE TIME 8ER10U8
JapaiiKs. t'llng to tli. Same Coutentlou,
. 1 roiiilalng Kerlous Trouble In tb
Kveiit ut Another War.
Washington, August 12. Iu the
event of a war between Russia and Ja
pan the United States may fiud itselt
an unwilling party, unless Japan re
treats from a position which it assumed
towards the United States during the
progress of tho war with China. It is
not generally known that just before
the declaration of the armistice, which
preceded the treaty ot peuoe, an issue
hud grown up between the Uuited
States and Japan that threatened to
lead to actual hostilities between the
two countries, aud that a hostile crash
was perhaps ouly averted by the con
clusion of the Chinese war.
.This issue arose through the asser
tion by the Jupauese authorities of the
right to search American vessels. They
insisted that they had the right to
board an Amoricau vessel, and, if they
chose, to take from her auy Chinose or
any enemies they might fiud, even
though they were but passengers. Our
minister promptly denied the existence
of such right on the part of a combat
ant uud a hot correspondence eusued.
The Japanese insisted on their right,
and even when Mr. Dun reminded
them that the United States hud goue
to war with Great Britain on just these
issues aud forced the abauduumeut of
any claim to such a right, thoy re
fused to abate their pretensions one
jit, though the minister intimated that
the first assertion of such a right would
be regarded by the Uuited States as un
unfriendly act aud therefore likely lead
to war.
The matter progressed to the peril
ous state thut when Admiral Carpen
ter Was about to escort an American
merchant ship out of a Japanese port
to prevent her detention by the Japan
ese, the latter, it is said, gave orders to
the shore batteries at the mouth of the
harbor to tire upon the American naval
vessels if they attempted to do so.
This fact came out after the oouulusion
of the armistice, which fortunately oc
curred at just this point in the uegotH
atious, thereby preventing an iuoideut
that would certainly have resulted in
war; but the significant point is that
the Japanese have steadily olung to the
same contention, promising serious
trouble in the event of another war in
the East
CLAIMS TO BE CHRIST.
Albuquerque, August 12. Francis
Scbluder, the "healer," now bluntly
and calmly announces thut he is the
Christ Among his cullers today was
the Rev. Charles L. Boyard, and iu the
course of their conversation the min
ister asked Schlader if he olimed to be
Jesus Christ returued to earth.
Schluder answered:
"I am, since you have asked me,
sir; l auy plainly 1 am; 1 am not nere
to give information, but will answer
direct questions."
"Do you claim to bo the Christ who
died on Calvary?"
"Yes."
"Do you believe in the tcachiugs of
the Bible?"
"Yes; it is the holy scripturo."
"But the Bible says Christ was a
Hebrew; you are not a Hebrew."
"No; but this 1b my third life."
"Why do you oull upon the Master
for aid in your work?"
"X have not yet reached perfection.
When my forty days fast is ovor 1
have yet six days more 1 will be
stronger, and aoino time I will reach
perfection."
Nothing this strange man bus said
or done is so strange us this statement
he now makes. Mrs. Sommers, in
whose home Schlader has been for six
teen days, is willing to take affidavit
that he has not taken food iu that time.
Every day he is visited by throngs of
people, and every day stories have
been told of the cures he is alllegod to
have effected.
Another Mult Against Hetty Green.
New York, August 13. The Adver
tiser says today: Mrs. Hetty Green
may huve another law suit on her
hands. In November, it is said, site
will be sued in the United States su
preme court by the heir of George W.
Gage, who was prominent in Chicago
in the early '70s. While in financial
straits he harrowed $100,000 from Mrs.
Green, giving as security 450 acres of
his Chicago real estate. Mrs. Green
foreclosed after his death aud the prop
erty is now valued at from $3,000,000
to $5,000,000. It is alleged that the
estate was never settled and that the
lawyers for the claimant aim to gain a
favorable judgment.
Kerkeley'a Banner Year.
San Francisco, August 13. Five
! hundred and fifty freshmeu will be on
the roll when the university of Califor
nia opens tomorrow. This extraordi
nary large class will overcrowd the
university. For the first time in the
history of the institiutou, the regents
have been confronted by lack of room.
The classes have been growing year by
year, but the appropriations have not
kept pace with the growth of the
classes, and this year the regents have
found themselves unable to supply the
facilities and space necessary for the
new students.
It has been estimated that 300 new
students will be added to the popula
tion of the Berkeley this year. The
demand for boarding and living places
baa been so great that it cannot be
met, and many will be obilged to
room in Oakland.
May Oppose the Mora Claim.
Madrid, August 12. At a meeting
of Carlist and republican deputies to
day the members present pledged the
two parties to oppose payment of the
Mora claims. In addition it was de
cided to send a petition to the queen
regent against the decision of the gov
ernment to pay the claims, and if these
step were nut successful in preventing
the payment, the deputies decided to
issue manifesto to toe nation.
ONCE MORE IN COURT.
I rinre.s I'uloiiiia Suing for I'ossasslou
of Her Hoys,
Rome, August 12. The Princess
Colouuu, daughter uf Mrs. John W
Muckay, is again having trouble with
her husband, Prince Colouua, about
her children. She is now at Castle a
Mure, awaiting the decision ot the
Nuplet court
Last April, when the court at Naples
decided that the Princess Colouna
should have a legal separation and the
oustody of her children, the contract
also stated that Prince Colouna should
have the two boys for. six weeks dur
iirg the year. Princess Colouna re
mained at Naples from November,
18U4, until Juue, 18U5, wheu Prince
Colouna asked that the two boys might
have their six weeks' visit with him
then. As the princess was about leav
ing Naples for Germany she readily
agreed and left with her daughter,
iilauoa, iuteudiug to return to Naples
July 15 aud claim tho boys. Upon
her return to Naples the boys went to
see ber, aud she seut word to the priuoe
that, as she was to leave in three days,
she would like to have the childreu
ready. The priuoe then informed her
that be would not give the children
up. He took thorn to Sorrento, where
they are now.
The Princess Colouna has sent for
her daughter, who was with Mrs.
Muckay, near Hamburg, aud has again
appealed to the Naples court to give her
the oustody of her two boys. The
Princess Colouna has taken the Valla

DeLucey, a member of the Fruitvale
Presbyterian church, was sentenced by

against her, offering no testimony in
extenuation, and at the same time ask
ing to be sent to prison, refusing to al

aud spoke very intelligently. Not
long ago she entered Hyde's drug
store iu Washington street, intending
to buy a brush she said. An uuoou
trolable impulse to steal something
suddenly possessed her, aud she hur
riedly secreted in her reticule two
boxes of a oompound for the opium
habit, several boxes of snuff and other
articles. For all these things she had
no use. Nor did she make auy effort
to sell them. Apparently rational on
other things, she explained that she is
steal something. In Fruitvale she is
geuerally respected, although she has
served four terms in the bouse of oor
rection in San Francisco. Her fatal
mania is a great grief to her, she says,

Wrecked Off Cap. Hawk, aud
HUty I'.rsona Drowned.
Philadelphia, August 10. The Brit
ish ship Prince Oaour, from Liverpool,
Captain Henderson, collided in mid
ocean, July 18, with an unknown sail
ing vessel. Both ships sauk in less
than ten minutes. Six members of the
crew of tho Priuoe Oscar and all on
board the unknown vessel were lost
The survivors, seventeen in number,
were rescued by the ship Dharwar,
after being in an open boat with
neither food nor water for three days.
They were transferred to the steamer
Capac, from Pisaqua, and brought to
this port tonight The names of the
lost are:
William Kuight, cook; Oscar Nel
son, seaman; K Petersou, seaman; Au
gust Carton, L Relup, 3. Anderson,
steward; the entire crew of the un
known vessol.
The disaster occurred soon after
midnight, in latitude 8:80 south, lon
gitude 28:20 west
The Prince Oscar was bound from
Shields, where she left May 9, tor
Iquique, ladeu with coal, aud was
going at a clipping gait, on the port
tack, before a brisk wind, aud all can
vas was set It is estimated by the
crew that she was making about 6 1-2
knots an hour, when suddenly there
loomed up directly under her bow a
four-masted vessel. The mate asserts
that the stranger had no lights burn
ing, and after she was sighted, it was
impossible to alter the oourse of the
Prince Oscar. The iron , hull of the
latter struck the unknown ship full
amidships, knocking her almost on hor
beameuds, aud crashing through the
woodwork until her prow was half
buried. The stranger went over at
once ou hor beameuds, as the Priuue
Oscar backed away Loin the rebound.
Afterward the Prince Oscar stood
by. Through the darkuess, her offl-
oers saw the stranger right herself, and
then she rapidly sank. They listened
iu vain for some sign of life, but not a
ory for help nor a word of command
came from the stricken vessel. In less
than four minutes from the time she
was struck, the stranger keeled over
and plunged item first into the depths
below.
Captain Henderson, of the Prince
Oscar, who was below in his berth,
rushed on deck just iu time to discover
thut his shin was also sinklnir. Tho
pumps were tmtnned, lAf fulosir Tfihtfri:'S;
than it takes to tell, it was discovered
thut tliero was uo hope from that
source. Lifeboat wore ordered cut
adrift, and the men told to jump and
swim for their lives. They all went
overboard, and with the exoeption of
two unfortunates, reached the small
boat
Captain Henderson, who was . the
last to leave the ship, went over in his
night garments and swam fully two
miles before being picked up.
Both boats cruised about the scene
until daylight in an effort to rescue the
two missing members of the Prince
Oscar's crew aud any members of the
crew of the stranger, who might have
been fortunate enough to have kept
afloat They found no one, however,
and nothing to indicate the name,
homo or destination of the strange
ship. Finally they left the scene and
headed they knew not exaotly whore.
Four hours later a heavy sea struck
the boat commanded by Mate Lynch
and capsized it The oooupauts, eight
in number, were thrown into the sea,
aud the already overcrowded craft,
which Captain Heudorson commanded,
put quickly to the rescue. They were
successful in taking four . men on
board, the rest drowning.
There wore now seventeen men in
the small lifeboat, with nothing to eat,
nothing to drink and barely room to
Btretch their limbs. Toward evening
of the second day one of the crew dis
covered a small case of fishoil stowed
away iu the lifeboat This was dealt
out to the survivors in small doses, and
they used it to moisten their parched
lips and tongues. Most ot the men
were partially naked, having bad no
time to secure clothes.
For three days they floated, and just
as they were about to abandon hope
they sighted the ship Dharwar, from
London, bound to Melbourne. They
succeeded in attracting the attention
of those on board, and were soon on
her deck. Four days later they were
put aboard the Capac for this port All
of the survivors still bear evidence of
the sufferings which they endured.

SIMMOMCV
VREGULATOR?
Reader, did you ever take Simmons
Li vbr Regulator, the "Kino of
Liver Medicines?" Every body need
take a liver remedy. It is a sluggish or
diseased liver that Impairs digestion ,
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou
bles, and give tone to the whole sys
tem. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is better than Pills. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
