CORONATION OF THE Czar Moscow, May 4.—The city is being rapidly filled up with visitors from many foreign countries to witness the festivities in connection with the fast-approaching coronation of the Czar. Many Americans are already here. The preparations for the celebration, which will be on an unparalleled scale of grandeur and magnitude, are virtually complete. Neither expense or pains have been spared in getting ready for the great occasion, and the illumination of the city, judging from the arrangements, will surpass anything of the kind ever before attempted here or anywhere else. Electric lights in globes of all the colors of the rainbow have been arranged to cast indescribable effects, and grand displays of fireworks have further been provided for, to add to the brilliancy and pomp of the occasion. Thousands of visitors from all parts of Russia have made pilgrimages to Moscow only to see the elaborate preparations. The police arrangements are believed to leave nothing to be desired in this respect. Alexander E. Olarovsky, Russian Consultant in New York, yesterday received the first copy to reach America of the official ceremonies to attend the life and property as the whirlwind which this afternoon made a graveyard of two of the most prosperous counties in Northeastern Texas. The cyclone at St. Cloud, the tornado which devastated the forests of Northern Wisconsin and obliterated for the time being Clear Lake from all maps, did not approach the one which to-night has made Sherman the saddest city in the whole Union. That a majority of the dead are colored people, the men, women and children of the field and plantation, has not softened the misery of the situation. The extreme heat, aggravated by the lack of rain for ten days past, has made Sherman and vicinity almost unbearable for human life. When in early May the temperature is 82 and 85 deg., in Northeastern Texas, the oldest darky in the field complains. He did this morning. By noon black clouds appeared in the southwest. They had early, fringed edges. On the crest they were black and yellow. Underneath was gray and yellow, with a steel blue sky, revealed here and there as the wind shifted the vapory masses beneath,urcharged with electricity. There were thunder and flashes of lightning but no rain. Children ran in from the roadways and streets, but the women in the houses paid little attention to the brewing of the whirlwind. The men in the fields thought it would be only a May-day shower. Even the children in the district schools of Grayson and Denton counties were not sent home. The bad weather conditions for the last fortnight might have forewarned the people that danger was at hand, but it did not. When the first blast of the cyclone was felt at Justine, in Denton county, more than a hundred miles from Sherman, the men, women and children were wholly unprepared for it. Justine was the first town to feel the blast. The work of rain was quickly accomplished there. From there the cyclone swept northeast throughout Gerald, Denton, thence to Mingo, to Gribble Springs, and on to Mustang. A hundred miles was traveled in an hour. The storm, after destroying the southwest section of Sherman, just missed the business streets. The balloon-shaped cloud, which whirled and twisted human beings out of shape, in a few minutes rose into the air when within three blocks of the business streets, which were crowded with merchants and traders, and disappeared in the direction of the Indian Territory, due north. A heavy rain followed and then a cold wave, Budd After the Bank SACRAMENTO, May 14.—The banks of California will be called upon this year to something that they have never been quired to do before. In the past they have made statements of the financial condition to the Bank Commissioners at some date subsequent to the first day of March, as as the law requires that assessments shall made upon property on hand on that day the different County Assessors could take the statements made to the Bank Commissioners by the banks as a basis of assessment. In this way hundreds of thousands dollars worth of property has escaped taxation. Governor Budd has directed the Bank Commissioners to demand of the bank statement of their financial condition on first Monday in March of this year Whether the Commissioners will comply with the request or, in case they do, whether the banks will meet the demand are questions yet to be determined. A letter written to Governor Budd by L Ortman, Assessor of San Josquin county was what formed the basis of the request which the Governor has made to the Bank Commissioners. In this letter Assessor Oman says: "The general impression seems to be that a very large amount of property has in past escaped taxation, and which should properly be assessed to the banks. I can no better way of testing the correctness falsity of this impression than to call for statement of the condition of affairs as existed on the first Monday in March, day fixed for assessment purposes." The Governor sent the Assessor's letters to the Bank Commissioners with the request to ascertain the condition of the affairs of S banks as they existed on the first Monday March. The Commissioners replied as follows: "We have the honor to report that on March 31st this Commission issued a call to banks under its jurisdiction to report to financial condition at close of business on March 28th. The banks have comp with this request, and a large portion these statements are already tabulated." THOUGHTS ST., ANAHEIM. city, consisting of fitts and Shoes, MATS AND CO.

THE ELECTORAL COLLE The number of electors chosen by State equals the number of members it to Congress. Thus California has two Congressmen and two Senators, and have nine members of the electoral colle. The ratio of representation in the House under the apportionment made by the eighth census is one to every 273,901 people the State, which gives a total of 357 senatives. There are 90 Senators, makes the total representation in branches of Congress 447, and the elec college will therefore be composed of members. The appended table shows vote which each State will be entitled to the choice for President: Alaoma... 11 Nevada... Arkansas... 8 New Hampshire... California... 9 New Jersey... Colorado... 4 New York... Connecticut... 6 North Carolina... Delaware... 3 North Dakota... Florida... 4 Ohio... Georgia... 13 Oregon... Idaho... 3 Pennsylvania... Illinois... 24 Rhode Island... Indiana... 15 South Carolina... Iowa... 13 South Dakota... Kansas... 10 Tennessee... A TINY MOON'S INHABITANTS. The inner moon of Mars is named Phobos and is a tiny satellite only eight miles in diameter. Let us suppose that everything on earth, which is nearly 1000 times larger than the little Phobian planet, is to be found on the surface of this miniature moon, reduced proportionately. We find, to begin with, that a terrestrial man of six feet, if transferred to Phobos, would be 0.72 of an inch in height. A good microscope would be necessary to determine the true shape and form of this speck of humanity, and it would be wholly invisible to the unaided eye at a distance of three feet. A ship of the dimensions of the Great Eastern would be seven and one-half inches in length if reduced to the Phobian standard, and a duck pond would be a "fathomless ocean" to the liliputian inhabitants of this Marsian satellite. A whale would be as small as a cheese mite, and a real sea serpent, which would be a terror to the Phobian mariner, would be like a section of a hair-worm five-eighths of an inch in length. The largest rivers cannot be more than a few feet in breadth and not more than two inches in depth. A railway train like the "Chicago flier" could be carried in an earthly cardcase, and a city the size of New York could be covered with a blanket! AWFUL CYCLONE IN TEXAS. SHERMAN (Tex.), May 15.—The bodies of dead children are hanging on the branches of the ash, oak and orange trees of Denton and Grayson counties to night. A cyclone, the most terrific Northeastern Texas has ever experienced, dashed out lives and wrecked homes in the village of Justince and the cities of Denton and Sherman to-day. The dead and wounded exceed 250. The combined cyclone and tornado which swept New Ulm, Minn., out of existence fifteen years ago, wrought no such ruin to an appetite and digestion competent to consume all that the rural population of the United States, under the present system of tillage, can produce. In view of these facts foreign markets must be invaded and held by American producers. Demand for a commodity creates value in that commodity. What California needs is foreign demand for her fresh fruits and for her dried fruits and for the products of her vineyards. No system of advertising or exploitation can create the demand and make it permanent, but the fruits and wines themselves, if honestly put up and placed in the market so that they shall be true to name, will create a demand equal to her wonderful capabilities of production in all the civilized markets of the globe. No citizen, fruit grower, packer or vintner in this State can afford to ship an inferior article abroad. Only the very best fruit, properly and carefully packed, and only the very best wines and brandies, unsophisticated, can alure and secure demand abroad. Competition in all lines of trade is constantly intensified in every market of the earth, and as in the prize ring or on the race course only the best muscle can legitimately win, so in the world's markets only the best commodities can be profitably sold. The American producer should therefore, be honest from policy if not from principle. With the world in a condition of profound peace, there is a constant strife as to who shall invade and hold its markets. Business everywhere is being done on smaller and smaller margins of profits. Political enonomy has generally been written from the standpoint of the producer. Those periods during which prices are high have been generally called good times, but the economic millennium will be when all humanity is often fed and best clothed at the smallest possible cost to each individual. As Cain and Abel offered the fruits of the earth, so now all the nations are offering them in all the markets. And in fraternal contention those who offer the best at the lowest prices will capture and control. No legislation, no edicts and no trusts can overcome honest quality in the commodities offered for sale. Nowhere is the law of the survival of the fittest executed with more unrelenting vigor than in the markets of trade. Therefore, California has a patent, by virtue of her climate and soil, for becoming the imperial purveyor of luxuries to all civilized peoples. Her fruit growers and viticulturists are in partnership with a soil and sunshine which makes them almost invincible against competitors from whatsoever source, provided that their commodities go unsophisticated, unadulterated and in all their natural lusciousness to their consumers. An enlightened selfishness will stimulate this people to placing only pure and honest articles on the market, and this will finally give success, satisfaction and enormous income to her people. Avoid pneumonia, diphtheria and typhoid fever, by keeping the blood pure, the appetite good and the bodily health vigorous by the use of Hood's Sarsaparilla. Hood's Pills have won high praise for their prompt and efficient yet easy action. Any one who has ever had an attack inflammatory rheumatism will rejoice Mr. J. A Stumm, 230 Boyle Height Angeles, over his fortunate escape of that distressing ailment. Mr. S is foreman of Merriam's confectionary lishment. Some months ago on leave he heated work room to run across the stair an errand, he was caught out in The result was that when ready to get that night he was unable to walk, own inflammatory rheumatism. He was home, and on arrival was placed in front a good fire and thoroughly rubbed Chamberlain's Pain Balm. During this ing and night he was repeatedly bathed this liniment, and by morning was raised of all rheumatic pains. He now take cial pleasure in praising Chamberlain's Balm, and always keeps a bottle of it house. For sale by Derge. NAVIGATORS OF THE ARCH The ancients had record of two machines—one a dove of wood made Archas propelled by heated air, another a brass fly which was said to make a short flight. Bladud, Brittain tried to make wings like a dove's, we know of his attempt is that he above his city and fell upon a temple, by killing himself. Bladud was the author of Shakespeare's King Lear. Another who lost his life for his flying machine monk called Elmer who had foretold vason of William the Conqueror; therefore taunted by the people for not needing beforehand that he would fall wipe machine and break his legs on taking from a high tower. He is said to have 125 paces. A hundred years later a repeated attempt and was killed. After the Banks MENTO, May 14.—The banks of California will be called upon this year to do what they have never been ready for before. In the past they have statements of the financial condition of the Bank Commissioners at some date, but now requires that assessments shall be on property on hand on that date, current County Assessors could not statements made to the Bank Com- by the banks as a basis of assess- in this way hundreds of thousands of worth of property has escaped taxa. Nor Budd has directed the Bank Commissioners to demand of the banks a list of their financial condition on the Sunday in March of this year. The Commissioners will comply with any request or, in case they do, whether they will meet the demand, are questioned to be determined. Her written to Governor Budd by C. Van, Assessor of San Joquin county, that formed the basis of the request the Governor has made to the Bank Commissioners. In this letter Assessor Orders: General impression seems to be that large amount of property has in the captured taxation, and which should be assessed to the banks. I can see no way of testing the correctness or of this impression than to call for a report of the condition of affairs as they happen on the first Monday in March, the need for assessment purposes." Governor sent the Assessor's letter to the Commissioners with the request to the condition of the affairs of State that they existed on the first Monday in Commissioners replied as follows: Save the honor to report that on March Commission issued a call to all under its jurisdiction to report their condition at the close of business on 28th. The banks have complied with this request, and a large portion of statements are already tabulated and flight over a lake and on trying to repeat the float fell in a square of Porrgia. It is not known what kind of wings these adventurous men had, though they were stiff and immovable. Leonardo da Vinci, besides being a great painter, architect and engineer, left note books which show he, too, had figured on a flying machine, which he abandoned when he discovered the difficulties in the way. A French locksmith thought that practice was the great thing and when he had made his wings he jumped first from a chair, then from a window and lastly from the roof of a small house. In the last experiment he sailed over a cottage roof and then sold his wings. Another Frenchman, who happened to be a man of title, tried an air route across the river Seine. A washerwoman's boat was near and he was not drowned. BATTLESHIP OREGON. GREETED WITH A DEMONSTRATION ON HER RETURN TO SAN FRANCISCO BAY—HAS THE WORLD'S SPEED RECORD FOR A BATTLESHIP. SAN FRANCISCO, May 16—To-day was the greatest gala day ever seen in the Potrero, because the Oregon steamed up to the Union Iron Works in a blaze of glory, with the world's speed record flying in bold letters and figures at her masthead. To the thousands dependent upon the Union Iron Works, the music of her gongs was sweet, and the sound of her great whistle called the residents from their homes. The air was rent with patriotic cheers, flags were flying and thousands stood at convenient view points to welcome Irving M. Scott as he was drawn by a hundred workmen in a carriage covered with flags and wreathed with flowers. Then every bell in the neighborhood rang, and all the whistles blew in concert, that of the Oregon rising above them all. The carriage was desked and ornamented until it looked like a chariot. The workmen from the shipyard took it in charge and seized the ropes and pulled their employer through the streets. They carried shovels and hammers as emblems of soil and stopped at the shops after a tour of several trees. The greatest damage was at the State Hospital for the insane, where many of the largest buildings were unroofed. The damage will be very heavy. The inmates were excited, but the guards averted trouble. The damage in the city will probably not exceed $40,000, though it may be much heavier, as the suburban districts are yet to be heard from. Mrs. Dion Duval and daughter were given a public demonstration at Nashua station, N. H., on their departure for California to join their husband and father whom they had not seen in twenty-one years. Twenty- Commissioners replied as follows: give the honor to report that on March 28th, the Commission issued a call to allenders its jurisdiction to report their condition at the close of business on March 28th. The banks have complied with this request, and a large portion of statements are already tabulated and ranks of the State Printer for publication. This will make the three states be furnished by banks during the provision in the Bank Commissioners of the Assessor of San Francisco county when these statements as a basis, and it easy to verify the statements to the Assessor on March 2d. The calls for by the Bank Commissioners are always at the close of business on last date, while those called for by us are for noon on the first Monday in March. Some banks have many as five transactions daily; to give an abscort statement of their financial status at no time of any given day, if not able, would be impracticable. The Bank Commission to now call either statement from banks to their union on March 2d would serve no purpose as the Commission is concerned, none, would be for the purpose solely being some assessors to perform duties of them by law, and which they simple facilities for doing. The Assessor Francisco county has found no difficulty using the data of March 28th, in and inexpensively obtaining information which he has acted." Governor directed Secretary McCabe over this letter and to reiterate his re-statement from all banks on the Monday in March. In Stockton, Cal., some time ago, F. Langan, of Los Banos, this State, knew very severely with cramps and sores. He chanced to meet Mr. C. M. who was similarly afflicted. He says: "him of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera Store and procured a bottle of gave Mr. Carter prompt relief and I much for its having cured me." For Derege. ELECTORAL COLLEGE. A number of electors chosen by each equals the number of members it sends congress. Thus California has seven senators and two Senators, and will nine members of the electoral college. ratio of representation in the House of the apportionment made by the elevensus is one to every 273,901 people in state, which gives a total of 357 representatives. There are 90 Senators. This is the total representation in both houses of Congress 447, and the electoral will therefore be composed of 447 voters. The appended table shows which each State will be entitled to in voice for President: Maine 11 Nevada 3 Massachusetts 8 New Hampshire 4 Nebraska 9 New Jersey 10 Idaho 4 New York 36 Ontario 6 North Carolina 11 Arkansas 3 North Dakota 3 Oklahoma 4 Ohio 23 Texas 13 Oregon 4 New Mexico 3 Pennsylvania 32 Rhode Island 4 South Carolina 4 North Dakota 4 Tennessee 12 A messenger conveying orders from Weyler to General Bernal, directing his course, was captured by Macco's forces. Macco inspected the dispatches and considered them practicable and absurd, and immediately released the messenger. It was presumed by General Bernal that Macco had not been able to read the cipher dispatches, so he proceeded on the course laid out for him. Macco belived General Bernal would not be able to reach the battlefield at the time indicated, and so he directed his whole force against General Inlan as he came up to attack Colonel Delmago. General Inlan was easily defeated, and then Macco directed his forces against General Bernal, defeating called the residents from their homes. The air was rent with patriotic cheers, flags were flying and thousands stood at convenient view points to welcome Irving M. Scott as he was drawn by a hundred workmen in a carriage covered with flags and wreathed with flowers. Then every bell in the neighborhood rang, and all the whistles blew in concert, that of the Oregon rising above them all. The carriage was decked and ornamented until it looked like a chariot. The workmen from the shipyard took it in charge and seized the ropes and pulled their employer through the streets. They carried shovels and hammers as emblems of soil and stopped at the shops after a tour of several blocks. After cheerers for the Oregon, for the president of the Union Iron works, and the nation, Irving M. Scott, greatly moved, stood up in the buggy and made a simple speech. "Boys," he began, "I cannot let this occasion pass without calling your attention to an event that occurred on Thursday. I want to thank you for making it possible for us to beat the world in building ships. It was only a few years ago that they said we were only an affair on paper; that we could not build a battleship on the coast, but we got the Charleston and increased the speed half a knot; then we got the San Francisco and the Olympia, and now comes the Oregon, grander than all." (Cheere). "Boys," continued the speaker, "I have but a few years left. I feel old age creeping upon me. I have given my life to this work, and when I must say farewell to the scenes long familiar with me, it will be with the thought that with fair treatment the men of the Union Iron Works will never be beaten." (Prolonged cheers). The remarkable performance of the great ship was the one theme of conversation in naval circles to-day. A CARD FROM THE GIRLS. EDITOR GAZETTE.-You no doubt read the little piece in the Independent concerning the "demoralizing effects" of a "chivaree," and judging from the article we think business must be very slack in that office if its editor can't find anything better to do than run down the character of the girls. We would like to inform noteworthy gentleman that there was not a "lot of boys" in the crowd with the girls, but there were several more girls than boys, and they did not "yell and howl" and carry on disgracefully, as stated by that moral and ideal man; but they behaved as they should. If he thinks the girls were in the last crowd he is very much mistaken, and he will do well to find out what he is talking about before he goes to running down the girls for wanting to have a little fun; and furthermore, what does he mean by saying, "If the people know how they carried on!" This means to imply that they acted improperly, and we would like to say that the girls who helped in this bit of innocent fun were ladies enough to know how to behave, even at a "chivaree," and we would like to know when he was appointed guardian of us. If he will mind his own affairs in future he will greatly oblige. THE GIRLS OF THE CHIVAREE.

Macco inspected the dispatches and considered them impracticable and absurd, and immediately released the messenger. It was presumed by General Bernal that Macco had not been able to read the cipher dispatches, so he proceeded on the course laid out for him. Macco believed General Bernal would not be able to reach the battlefield at the time indicated, and so he directed his whole force against General Inolan as he came up to attack Colonel Delmago. General Inolan was easily defeated, and then Macco directed his forces against General Bernal, defeating him also and driving the whole Spanish forces to Bahis Honda. The Spanish officers now say that at the time the official statement was published that seventy-two of the Spanish troops were killed and wounded in that battle, it was known at Weyler's headquarters that there were thirty-two officers and eighty-one soldeirs killed and one Lieutenant-Colonel and over 400 soldiers wounded. Whooping Cough. There is no danger from this disease when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is freely given. It liquefies the tough mucus and aids its expectoration. It also lessens the severity and frequency of paroxysms of coughing, and insures a speedy recovery. There is no least danger in giving the remedy to children or babies, as it contains no injurious substance. For sale by Derge. Li Hung Chang's coffin, which he carries with him on all of his travels, arrived in London Thursday and curious visitors have been allowed to inspect the grewsome last resting place of the great Chinese at Albert dock. The famous viceroy, with admirable taste, refrained from taking the great casket to Moscow with him, because its presence would be too suggestive among the gay scenes of the coronation. No doubt it is felt, also, that he is more likely to have use for the big box in solemn London, which he will visit later, than in the festive capital of the Czar's dominions. It may be interesting to note that the massive casket is of the heaviest mahogany, cut from a single tree trunk. It measures eight feet nine inches by three feet, and is two feet ten inches deep. It is heavily gart by huge bands of brass with mighty handles, all brazen. Its contents are said to be forty suits of clothing for Elysian use, an opium pipe and a piece of gold to pay the ferryman over the Styx. Li Hung Chang will be the recipient of any amount of honors and flattery when he comes to England. The aged Oriental is said to be susceptible to this sort of influence, but nothing that the ingenuity of the British government can conceive will be omitted to win the shewd old man away from his Russian attachment.

Postmaster J. P. Hopkins of Rhonerville, Humboldt county, has been suspended from duty for opening letters addressed to I. Horlein. Hopkins is quite well along in years, and not long ago wooed and won a young and decidedly handsome wife. He was deeply infiltrated with his bride, and she relocated his affections. For a time the couple lived happily. Hopkins showed his bride every attention, and showered upon her everything possible that might add to her pleasure. But there came a time when her love for him began to wane. The difference in age was too much to overcome, and when Horlein began to visit the home and spend considerable time in the company of Mrs. Hopkins she soon forgot her first love and turned to the new. To make matters worse Horlein began to write in most endearing terms to Mrs. Hopkins, and many secret meetings were thus planned. The postmaster then began to suspect that all was not quite right, and in order to ascertain whether or not his wife was corresponding with Horlein opened a letter addressed to him. The truth was discovered, and Hopkins lost not only his wife but also his position. Jack Trice, a negro, fought fifteen white men at Braidentown, Fla., killing James Hughes and Edw. Sanchez, fatally wounding Henry Daniels and dangerously wounding Albert Buffum. The battle occurred at the negro's home near Palmetto, and he fought to prevent his fourteen-year-old son being "regulated" by the whites. Trice's son and the son of Town Marshal Hughes of Palmetto fought, the white boy being badly beaten. Hughes was greatly enraged, and he and fourteen other white men went to Trice's house after midnight to "regulate" the negro's little boy. The whites demanded that the boy be sent out. Trice refused, and the whites began firing. Trice returned his fire, his first bullet killing Marshal Hughes. Edward Sanchez tried to burn the house, but was shot through the brain by Trice. Then the whites tried to batter in the door with a log, which resulted in Henry Daniels getting a bullet in the stomach which will kill him. The "regulators" then ran, a final bullet from Trice's rifle striking Albert Buffum in the back. The whites secured reinforcements and returned to the home at sunrise, vowing to burn father and son at the stake, but their intending victims had fled, and only Trice's old mother was in the house. The old woman was driven out, and the house burned. Possess with bloodbounds are chasing Trice and the boy, and they will be lynched if caught.
