The condition of affairs among the settlers of Grant county, Oklahoma, is one of desperate want. Hunger is their constant companion, and the situation is such that only instant aid will prevent actual starvation among those who are trying to hold the claims which they secured in the Cherokee Strip opening in September, 1893. Owing to the dronths which have prevailed since the opening, no crops have been raised. As a result the settlers are in actual want. They have no resources to exist on, and to make the situation more desperate and hopeless, they cannot get away. The destitution is so great and widespread that the county government can furnish no assistance, and the Territorial government has no money for such purposes. Slowly but surely the settlers have exhausted their resources. With actual starvation in sight, the people of Prairie township held a meeting and started the movement which resulted in the county sending out the Rev. Mr. Shane and Judge Nash to tell the story of their extreme want to the charitable people of Kansas and Missouri, and to beseech aid. The stories the two tions were necessary it was decided to commence the long journey at once. The friends of the bride and groom assembled at the hotel and the crowd was increased by a number of curious spectators so that when the last good-byes were said and the plucky little woman and her big husband took the first step out of doors they were greeted by cheers from an assembly of several hundred people. They bowed their thanks, and trudging along were soon at the city limits and fairly started on their way to San Francisco. San Francisco and Seattle being visited, then the road lies straight for the Orient. The undertaking is actuated by a desire for sightseeing and adventure, as well as by the $5,000 parue which is up on the venture. SURVIVORS OF THE COLIMA. Seventeen survivors of the ill-fated steamer Colima arrived in San Francisco on the San Juan. Hundreds of friends and relatives of those who went down on the ill-fated ship were on the dock, awaiting the landing of the passengers. Groups of women, with tear-stained faces, and knots of anxious men, implered every one on board for tidings of the lost, all hoping against hope that there might have been some mistake in the dispatches, and some name omitted among the sares. How keen was their disappointment even in the face of the inevitable assurance that there was no hope, was evidenced in their bitter lamentations. On the upper deck of the steamer were a few happy people whose pleasure contrasted sharply with the grief of the bereaved. There were the friends of the survivors, who were embraced and congratulated at their miraculous rescue. The survivors were a sorry-looking party. Some had their arms in slings, some their heads swathed in bandages. They limped as they walked, and their bruises were plainly in evidence. All looked weak and plainly showed the effects of the strain during the fearful hours when they awaisted succor. The stones of the survivors all confirmed the telegraphic accounts of the disaster. They agree that the cause of the founder was the top heavy condition of the Colima, due to the bulky deckload. From the beginning of the voyage south the steamer acted badly. ODDS AND ENDS OF NEWS. Exciting elections for School Trustees reported from many points on the Coast. Gen. E. E. Hewitt the well-known Angeleno died at his home in that city Saturday evening. It has been found necessary to coerce him from doing violence to himself, said that he has become hopelessly insane. Three men were hanged at San Quentin Friday—Amalio Garcia, the Mexican murderer an old Frenchman near Coon Anthony Azoff, slayer of Detective Harris of the Southern Pacific Company Boulder Creek; and Patrick J. Collins, stabbed his wife to death in San Francisco for refusing to support him. A firm of Stockton shippers have agreed for one hundred carloads to be shipped to Chicago, an been shipped. The East is looking to formoria for onions, the Louisiana and Florida crops, which have bitherto been relied upon to supply the market, being failures oo to the cold weather early in the spring. California crop is short. Minnie Destra, her two brothers and a man Renner, arrived in Cincinnati Saturday from Germany, and left their baggage went to Dayton that evening. Renner turned next day with a hard luck story he was engaged to Minnie and had entrusted $2,500 to her keeping. It was all his money When he got up at Dayton Sunday morning he found Minnie and her alleged brothel gone, and also his $2,500. The pair are hunting the fagitives, who have chosen for the baggage, but have not called for President Cleveland announces that following Cabinet appointments: Secretary State, Richard Olney of Massachusetts; toronto-General, Judson Harmon of California. The appointment of Mr. Olney to the vacancy caused by the death of Secretr of State Gresham was expected, The President having intimated that he would make such an appointment. Mr. Cleveland's lection of ex Judge Harmon was somewhat of a surprise, and he had not been placed on the gossips on the list of gentlemen likely be chosen. The opening, no crops have been raised. As a result the settlers are in actual want. They have no resources to exist on, and to make the situation more desperate and hopeless, they cannot get away. The destitution is so great and widespread that the county government can furnish no assistance, and the Territorial government has no money for such purposes. Slowly but surely the settlers have exhausted their resources. With actual starvation in sight, the people of Prairie township held a meeting and started the movement which resulted in the county sending out the Rev. Mr. Shane and Judge Naah to tell the story of their extreme want to the charitable people of Kansas and Missouri, and to beseech aid. The stories two messengers tell of the destitution are affecting in the extreme. The Rev. Dr. Shane draws a pension of $14 a month, and for the last three months four families have been existing on the pension money. Monday week he drew $42 for his last quarter. He paid the grocery bill and had $175. Just before leaving on his trip he asked credit for a sack of flour, but was refused it. Then the families had to face immediate want. His son-in-law and wife started away in their wagon Tuesday without a cent, and without provisions. They said they might as well beg and starve on the road as to stay there and starve. He has not heard from them since. The Kansas City Live Stock Exchange has appropriated $50, and a movement has been started to send immediate relief to the destitute. WARSHIPS IN THE BALTIC. War vessels from all the great powers are hurrying to the Baltic to take part in the naval demonstration, to take place on the 19th and 20th, attendant upon the opening of the canal joining the Baltic to the North Sea. The canal was eight years in building and cost $38,500,000 and was built by Germany out of the war idemnity paid by France after the capitulation of Paris in 1870. The canal intersects the peninsula of Schlewig Holstein, a distance of about fifty-nine miles. The entrances at both terminals are provided with dock-gates, each of which is twenty seven and a half yards wide. The lowest possible depth of water is at the Brunabuttel end and is five fathoms, and at Holtenau the water is a trifle deeper. The dock-gates are operated by hydraulic power and the whole canal is lighted by electricity. Steamtugs will be stationed at each main gate of the canal in order to assist in the passage of vessels. At several points the canal is crossed by large bridges which when opened, leave a free space of fifty-four yards. There are also a number of ferries and two finely-constructed permanent railway bridges. The military advantage of the canal lies in the fact that henceforth in time of war the German navy cannot be divided and the provisioning of either the Baltic or the north岸 cannot be interrupted or rendered impassable. The agitation in France against the French warships at Kiel hoisting the German imperial flag bearing the sinister date "1870" has induced the Emperor to decide not to visit any foreign warship during the celebration of the opening of the canal, as if he visited any of them he would be compelled to visit the Hoche, the French flag ship, which would thereby be bound to hoist the standard. The cause of the French objection appears to be due to the fact that Prince Bismarck during the course of a speech, made in reply to the address of a deputation in April last, said that the canal had been proposed by him in 1867, but that nobody would listen to him until the French war idemnity gave him wherewithal to carry out his scheme. Fourth of July Rates. The Southern California (Santa Fe Route) will sell tickets July 3rd and 4th to all points in its area. The survivors were a few happy people whose pleasure contrasted sharply with the grief of the bereaved. There were friends of the survivors, who were embraced and congratulated at their miraculous rescue. The survivors were a sorry-looking party. Some had their arms in slings, some their heads swathed in bandages. They limped as they walked, and their bruises were plainly in evidence. All looked weak and plainly showed the effects of the strain during the feaful hours when they awaited succor. The stones of the survivors all confirmed the telegraphic accounts of the disaster. They agree that the cause of the foundering was the top heavy condition of the Colima, due to the bulky deckload. From the beginning of the voyage south the steamer acted badly and would not answer her helm. The storm which sank her was encountered about 4 o'clock on Monday night, May 27th, and blow furiously during the next fourteen hours. The vessel lost steerage way, awung shoreward in the teeth of a furious southeastern gale, when she lay helpless, battered by the mighty tidal waves. The steamer lay helpless on her side torb about fifteen minutes, and then tipped over and sank. The women and children were drowned in their staterooms, where they were confined during the gale. Those passengers who had been on deck were thrown into the sea. Many were killed and horribly mutilated by the lumber on the Colima's deck, blown down by the wind and hurled on the heads of the struggling men in the water. A raft upon which five survivors were afloat, drifted about for twenty four hours They gave up all hope until the San Juan hove in sight. They attracted her attention by hoisting a red piece of cloth and waving their clothes. On the raft with the passengers were two sailors. One seized a small cask of claret, of which they drank until he became drunk and quarrelsome. To save lives of the rest, the men were obliged to push one sailor into the sea, where he drowned. There was no time to launch boats or to put on life-preservers, when they realized the serious plight of the Colima, and besides fury of the storm made it impossible to launch or man the boats successfully. Those who see cured life-preservers got them in water, and those in the boat picked up by the San Juan clambered into her as she floated near them struggling in the sea. The captain stayed by his post to the last. Just before the explosion he was seen clinging to the railing of the bridge, and as the survivors were whirled away in the waves, he gave two faint blows of the whistle, but he never left the bridge. He sank with his ship. Cicago is in a predicament in relation to its $5,000,000 of debt. Efforts to devise ways and means to extinguish this indebtedness and start with clean books are many, but no plan so far presented seems feasible. Mayor Swift has been laboring with the financial problem for weeks. As a result he has offered as a solution in the way of meeting present warranties by anticipating tax levy of 1895, by passing necessary ordinance authorizing the borrowing from the banks of 60 per cent of that tax levy, and issuing seven millions worth of 4 per cent bonds, six millions of the proceeds to be devoted to the old indebtedness and one million to be retained in the funds. With this object in view a bill has been drafted, to be presented in the Legislature, authorizing the Mayor's idea. Speaking for this class, Oran Smith said: "The bonded indebtedness of the city is already sufficiently great. What we want is, not more bonds, but more economy." To all this the Mayor says that economy in salaries would be but a trifling item, far inadequate tothe demands,and thatthe debts must be paid. Four men were suffocated in the Alpine tunnel at Pitkin, Colorado, Saturday afternoon. An engine had run into the tunnel, which is 1,776 feet long, with a crew of men to syphon out an accumulation of water held in by a dirt cave. The ventilation in the tunnel was poor and smoke and gas fromthe engine made air so stifling that theymen soon prepared to leave.

Williams Jr. and his bride of a week are walking to San Francisco this evening, their first stage on a trip around the world. They left the Russ House, on First and Los Angeles streets, late this afternoon, without luggage, or money, or food, with nothing but the clothes on their backs and a few things in their pockets. Mr. Williams is a son of Deputy District Attorney W. T. Williams, who is a brother of Judge Williams of Ventura. Like his father and uncle, he is a big, stalwart man, capable of withstanding all sorts of hardships. Some ten days ago he surprised his friends by announcing his intention of getting married, and about a week ago turned up with a lovely bride, and spent his honeymoon at the Russ House. The story now goes that he made a wager of $5,000 with his uncle that his wife had courage enough to undertake a journey around the world without either of them having any money or luggage. The condition was imposed that not more than two years should be occupied in the trip, and that the travelers must not receive any help from friends, but must earn every cent they get from the time of departure until they return. The conditions were promptly agreed to, and as no particular preparation has induced the Emperor to decide not to visit any foreign warship during the celebration of the opening of the canal, as if he visited any of them he would be compelled to visit the Hoche, the French flag ship, which would thereby be bound to hoist the standard. The cause of the French object appears to be due to the fact that Prince Bismarck during the course of a speech, made in reply to the address of a deputation in April last, said that the canal had been proposed by him in 1867, but that nobody would listen to him until the French war idemnity gave him wherewithal to carry out his scheme. Four men were suffocated in the Alpine tunnel at Pitkin, Colorado, Saturday afternoon. An engine had run into the tunnel, which is 1,776 feet long, with a crew of men to syphon out an accumulation of water held in by a dirt cave. The ventilation in the tunnel was poor and smoke and gas from the engine made the air so stifling that the men soon prepared to leave. As the engine was backing out a man was discovered lying across the track and the engineer reversed, running further into the tunnel, where all the men were overcome by suffocation. Streous efforts were made to rescue them, but it was impossible, as the air within had become so impregnated with gas and smoke that for several hours no one could enter far enough to reach the victims. The superintendent of the mine, and the engineer and fireman, all married, are among the killed. Teams were sent to the tunnel Sunday morning to recover the remains. A special train came from Gunnison carrying friends and relatives of the victims, and went on to the tunnel to meet the teams and brings the bodies to town. The June number of Tales from Town Topics presents as its leading feature a daintily-told story of metropolitan social life, by L. H. BICKFORD, entitled "A Very Remarkable Girl," which is a very delightful morsel of light summer reading. Despite the spirit of airy cynicism that pervades the story, the contrast that it affords between sterling strength of character and the emptiness of fashionable life is admirable. Cynthia Platte, a girl full of the life and vigor of a Western bringing-up, but brilliant in mind as she is daring in her defiance of the conventionalities, captures the reader's affections at once, and there are other characters equally well drawn, and quite as entertaining. Following the novelette comes the customary array of spicy tales, sketches and bits of humorous and sentimental verse gathered from early numbers of Town Topics—Town Topics Publishing Company, 208 Fifth Avenue, New York.

Fritz Emmet,the actor,son of J.K.Emmet,the German dialect comedian,s shot wife in San Francisco on Saturday evening Young Emmet was around town all three afternoon and went home drunk in the evening.He drove his wife out of the house and chased her about the streets,firing pistol.Two young men seized him and vented the murder of his wife.She was taken to the Receiving Hospital,where she refused to allow the surgeons to examine her,saying she was not hurt.The surgeon thought she was wounded in the head;there was a slight wound of some sort from which the blood flowed.Emmet was arrested.The Emmets have been on the coast several months,and recently concluded an engagement at the theater,swhere your Emmet played Fritz,the character mad famous by his father.

An Italian flag streamed over the Italian benevolent society's building at San Jose without an American streamer at the masthead. The flag was not down for four days and the citizens were much wrought up over the matter. A police officer stepped into the store of Louis Cavallaro and told him he thought it would be better if the flag were taken down, as a great many persons were objecting to its presence. Cavallaro gave a very insulting answer, and the flag remained. The A. P. A.'s met, several hundred being present, and decided that the flag had to come down.

Crudely mixed from low-grade, impure ingredients, such powders cost but half as much to make as the highly refined, absolutely pure Royal Baking Powder, although retailed at the same price. They are unwholesome and lacking in leavening strength: Royal Baking Powder gives the greatest value for its cost, and there is no other powder or preparation that will give such satisfaction, or make such pure, wholesome and delicious food, or which in practical use will be found so economical.
