A MILLION SAVED ALREADY. Three Big Steamers Just in Time to Be Too Late. The erroneous impression got abroad today that even if the Senate did pass the tariff bill it could not get to the President before Monday, and therefore ships that came in during the day in time to get goods entered at the custom house before 4 o'clock would save them from the new duties. Three big ships were due, the Paris, Umbria and La Touraine. If the President did not sign the bill before Monday it meant the saving of duties of more than $1,000,000. If he signed at once (as he did) it made no difference what time the ships got in, the goods aboard would have to pay the new duties. The uncertainty made things interesting. The Paris got to quarantine before midnight Friday, and by noon to-day the brokers had her cargo entered. At that hour it was reported that the Fire Island observer had seen the Umbria, and close behind her was La Touraine, both pegging away for port as if the "Old Man of the Sea" was after them. The brokers had the papers for the cargo all ready to file as soon as the captains could enter the ships, and sent tugs down the bay to hurry them. The Umbria's captain arrived at 3 o'clock and fifteen minutes later the steamer's papers had all been received, but La Touraine's captain was still missing. The brokers tore their hair as they glanced at the clock. Four o'clock came and still no captain. The crowd set up a hoot. "Hooray!" howled the crowd in derision as La Touraine's captain hustled up the steps. The hands of the clock pointed to seven minutes after 4. The captain was greatly worried when the collector refused to enter the ship. His face cleared later when he learned the cargoes of the Umbria and Paris were treated just exactly as La Touraine's. RUSH TO THE NORTH. Days of '49 Recalled By the Eagerness of the Multitude to Get to Alaska. SAN FRANCISCO, July 25.—The desire of the gold-struck throng for the rich diggings in the Klondyke district resembles the craze of Easterners to reach California in the days of old and the days of gold. More Medicinal value in a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla than in any other preparation. More skill is required, more care taken, more expense incurred in its manufacture. It costs the proprietor and the dealer but it costs the consumer less, as he gets more doses for his money. More curative power is secured by its peculiar combination, proportion and process, which make it peculiar to itself. More people are employed and more space occupied in its Laboratory than any other. More wonderful cures effected and more testimonials received than by any other. More sales and more increase year by year are reported by druggists. More people are taking Hood's Sarsaparilla today than any other, and more are taking today than ever before. More and STILL MORE reasons might be given why you should take Hood's Sarsaparilla The One True Blood Purifier. $1 per bottle. Hood's Pills cure all Liver Ills and Sick Headache. 25 cents. The Cost of Royalty. The royal family of England costs the British government, in round numbers, $3,000,000 annually. Of this sum the Queen receives nearly $2,000,000 a year, besides the revenues from the duchy of Lancaster, which amount to a quarter of a million. The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland receives $100,000 a year for his services and expenses, and the Prince of Wales $200,000 a year. The President of France receives $240,000 a year for salary and expenses, an enormous salary, when it is remembered that the republic is sweating under a stupendous national debt of over $8,000,000—the largest debt ever incurred by any nation in the world. Italy can have 10,000 men slaughtered in Abyssinia and still pay her King $2,600,000 a year. The civil list of the German Emperor is about $4,000,000 a year, besides large revenues from vast estates belonging to the royal family. The Czar of all the Russias owns in fee simple 1,000,000 square miles of cultivated land, and enjoys an income of $12,000,000. The King of Spain, little Alfonso XIII., if he is of saving disposition, will be one of the richest sovereigns in Europe when he becomes of age. The State allows him $1,400,000 a year with an additional $600,000 for family expenses. We are said to be the richest nation on earth yet our President's salary is only $50,000 a year.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 25.—The desire of the gold-struck throng for the rich diggings in the Klondyke district resembles the craze of Easterners to reach California in the days of old and the days of gold. There is little or no method in this longing of the masses to reach the El Dorado in the great unknown territory of the northwest. People who have had no experience in mining or have undergone none of the hardships incident to such a journey as will follow a trip to the Yukon country are clamoring for passage, and straining every nerve to secure the funds necessary on which to make the trip. Many are making sacrifices in order to visit the country that promises so much. Every steamship office in the city is literally overrun with people seeking information concerning the Klondyke country. Those who have the money have not hesitated to pay for the passage, trusting in many instances to good luck to give them the food on which to subsist during the coming winter. The Excelsior, which leaves Wednesday next, has a full passenger list, but big bonuses are being offered every day for a berth on the vessel. The steamer Umatilla left this morning for the north with 296 passengers and a full cargo of provisions. She left for Port Townsend, where she connects with the City of Topeka, sailing direct to Juneau. The owners of the Umatilla have applied to Inspector of Hulls and Boilers Bermingham for permission to carry all the passengers that the vessels owned by the company will hold. The Topeka, which is scheduled to leave Seattle early next week, has already more passengers than is permitted by the law. The same is true of the George W. Elder, which is scheduled to sail July 30. The people at Seattle are berging the steamship company officers to provide them with transportation. More people are anxious to go to Alaska and the Yukon country than osh possibly be accommodated at the present time. It is believed by many that the vessels now fitting at San Francisco and destined for Dawson City by way of St. Michaels, will never reach the former place. The river begins to freeze about September 10, and it is not possible for vessels leaving San Francisco after August 1 to reach Dawson City for at least five or six days after the extreme cold has set in. SEATTLE (Wash.), July 25.—No greater crowd ever assembled on the wharves of Seattle than that which witnessed the departure of the steamer Mexico for Dyea this morning. On the Mexico were 283 passengers, who left to seek their fortunes in the Klondyke district. The advertised time of sailing was 9 o'clock, but it was considerably after 12 before she left the wharf. Long before that time the wharf was completely blocked with people, who were on hand to witness the departure, and the crowd spread out along the wharves and docks to the north for nearly a mile. At a conservative estimate, there were fully 8000 people on the wharves twice as many as had assembled to bid adieu to any preceding steamer nation in the world. Italy can have 10,000 men slaughtered in Abyssinia and still pay her King $2,600,000 a year. The civil list of the German Emperor is about $4,000,000 a year, besides large revenues from vast estates belonging to the royal family. The Czar of all the Russias owns in fee simple 1,000,000 square miles of cultivated land, and enjoys an income of $12,000,000. The King of Spain, little Alfonso XIII., if he is of saving disposition, will be one of the richest sovereigns in Europe when he becomes age. The State allows him $1,400,000 a year with an additional $600,000 for family expenses. We are said to be the richest nation on earth yet our President's salary is only $50,000 a year. It was $25,000 from 1789 to 1873. Thousands Celebrate With thankfulness their restoration to health by using Hood's Sarsaparilla. Think of the vast army who have been cured by this medicine—Men, women and children, who have suffered the consequences of impure blood, who have been the victims of scrofula sores, eruptions, dyspepsia, nervousness, sleeplessness. They have tried other medicines and have failed to obtain relief. They tried Hood's Sarsaparilla and it did them good. They persevered in its use and it accomplished permanent cures. Do you wonder that they praise it and recommend it to you. Near Capay, Yolo county, Constable W. A. Moore shot and killed W. C. Cook, who lived at Loomis, Placer county. Cook and a little son had been on a camping trip in the coast range mountains and were on their way home. Near Capay Cook shot a turkey belonging to Mrs. Ben Duncan and carried it away in his buggy. Word was sent to Constable Moore, who pursued Cook on his bicycle. Overtaking him, the officer told Cook to consider himself under arrest for stealing the turkey. Cook offered to pay for the turkey, but the money was refused. A quarrel ensued and it is said Cook took the officer's pistol from him and beat him over the head with it. Regaining possession of his weapon Moore fired, the bullet striking Cook in the head and killing him instantly. Moore surrendered himself to the authorities. Southern Pacific Local Time Table.

In addition to her passengers, the Mexico carried some eighteen hundred tons of freight, consisting almost entirely of the outfits of the gold-seekers. She has also on board forty-eight horses and one burro, to be used in packing these supplies over the Chilkoot Pass from Dyea to Lake Linderman.

Prairie that rolls for leagues, Duky and golden pale, Like a stitched sea of waves, Unbroken by ship or sail. The hollows are dark with brush And black with wash of showers And ragged with bleaching wreck Of the ranks of the tall sunflower. No cloud in the blue, no stir Save the shrill of the wind in the grass, And the meadow lark's note, and the call Of the wind borne crows that pass.

From the Republican, Columbus, Ind. The Hartsville College, situated at Hartsville, Indiana, was founded years ago in the interest of the United Brethren Church, when the state was mostly a wilderness, and colleges were scarce. The college is well known throughout the country, former students having gone into all parts of the world. My physician prescribed for me for some time, and advised me to take a change of climate. I did as he requested and was some improved. Soon after, I came here as professor in physics and chemistry, and later was financial agent of this college. The change agreed with me, and for awhile my health was better, but my duties were heavy, and again I found my trouble returning. This time it was more severe and in the winter I became completely prostrated. I tried various medicines and different physicians. Finally, I was able to return to my duties. Last spring I was elected president of the college. Again I had considerable work, and the trouble, which had not been entirely cured, began to affect me, and last fall I collapsed. I had different doctors, but none did me any good. Professor Bowman, who is professor of natural science, told me of his experience with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and urged me to give them a trial, because they had benefited him in a similar case, and I concluded to try them. The first box helped me, and the second gave great relief, such as I had never experienced from the treatment of any physician. After using six boxes of the medicine I was entirely cured. To-day I am perfectly well. I feel better and stronger than for years. I certainly recommend this medicine. To all doubt Prof. Barnaby cheerfully made an affidavit before LYMAN J. SCUDDER, Notary Public. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are sold by all dealers, or will be sent postpaid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box, or six boxes (250) (they are never sold in bulk or by addressing Dr. Williams' Medicine Factory, Schenectady, N.Y.

The temperature will go down 10 or 12 degrees. This custom is practiced in eastern VOICE OF THE PRESS. WAS LONG ON CRACKERS. From the Santa Ana Standard. A daily paper that comes to our office this week published a list of articles for an outfit for an Alaska adventurer. It reminded us of the outfit of the four Kentucky colonels who went to St. Joe to get an outfit for Pike's Peak in 1859. They sent out one man for supplies. He soon returned. "Well, what did you get, sah?" said the leader. "Two barrels of whiskey and a box of crackers," was the prompt reply. "What in thunder did you want with so many crackers?" was the response, and the Kentucky caravan moved on. GAY WILSHERE'S LOAN. From the Los Angeles Express. Money is not so tight if one knows how to loosen the screws that bind it. Gay Wilshire, I am told, had a $50,000 loan called a few days ago, and replaced it in twenty-four hours, much to the chagrin of some interested financiers who thought that he could not. GEORGE PETER'S CONUNDRUM. From the Santa Ana Blade. George Peters staggered the county officials at the court house today with this conundrum: "What is the difference between a black and a bald headed woman?" No answer being forthcoming, Mr. P. explained the riddle by saying, "One's hair is crowshade and the other is nit." Next. A GLENDORA ELOPEMENT. From the Downey Champion. J. A. Swanner, a laboring man who makes his home in Los Angeles, in company with Mrs. Bower, his mother-in-law, of Pomona, were in this city on Thursday morning looking for Mrs. Swanner, who eloped from Glendora, Tuesday with Budd Lewis, a person well known in these parts for his not very savory reputation. The sole object of Mr. Swanner's visit here was to get his children—a boy three years old and an infant girl eight months of age. His wife, he says, he has no further use for, but the children he will have at all hazards. The husband's story is that soon after the birth of the last child his wife became acquainted with Lewis at the residence of her parents, where she was stopping after her confinement. The result of that intimacy was the elopement on Tuesday. Budd Lewis was seen in Downey on Tuesday and it is supposed that Mrs. Swanner and the children were somewhere in this vicinity. The 16-year-old brother, Dave Bower, came with the runaway couple, stating that he proposed to stay by the children to see that no harm came to them. THE SUGAR CAMPAIGN AT CHINO. A lump of soda laid on the drain pipe will prevent the pipes from becoming clogged up with grease. It is well also to flood the pipes once a week with boiling water in which a little soda has been dissolved. Drinking water should be kept in a pitcher in the refrigerator. A draught from water thus cooled is more healthful and satisfying than when poured over pieces of ice. To cool a hot room, wet thoroughly a large sheet and hang up. The temperature will go down 10 or 12 degrees. This custom is practiced in eastern lands. A stale loaf of bread may be freshened by wrapping in a clean cloth and dipping in boiling water for thirty seconds. Remove the cloth and bake the loaf for ten minutes in a slow oven. The addition of a little powdered borax to cold starch tends to give the linen extra stiffness and a little turpentine put into the boiled starch adds luster. If the white of eggs do not beat to a froth readily add a pinch of salt and place in the refrigerator until they are thoroughly cold, then they should beat light very quickly. A small dish of fine charcoal kept upon a shelf of a dark closet or in the refrigerator and renewed every week will absorb all odors and help to keep things fresh. When you suspect what you are cooking has been scorched because you have neglected it for just one moment too long, lift the vessel holding the food from the fire and stand it in a pan of water for a few minutes. In almost every case the scorched taste will entirely disappear. The water in which potatoes have been boiled is very effective in keeping silver bright. It can be bottled for use. If nauseous medicine has to be taken, the unpleasant taste will be prevented if a tiny bit of alum is first put into the mouth and then the dose taken at once. Skim milk added to twice the quantity of warm water cleans graining or any varnished woodwork easily, and injures the varnish less than any other preparation, as proved by many years' trial. It brightens up oil cloths to wash them over with skim milk after cleaning. To clean willow furniture use salt and water, and apply with a coarse brush, drying thoroughly. Cold sliced potatoes fry and taste better by sprinkling a tablespoonful of flour over them while frying. Kid gloves that have a tendency to rip may be neatly mended by turning wrong side out and pasting a bit of court plaster over the rip, bringing the separated edges closely together. A spoonful of vinegar added to the water in which meat and poultry are boiled makes them more tender. New tins should be set over the fire with boiling water in them for several hours before food is put into them. Two or three thicknesses of newspaper laid on the floor before laying matting will treble the length of life of the matting. Cloth and felt hats can be cleaned with a short, hard brush dipped in ammonia. They should be brushed until the grease spots have disappeared. A good way of using stale bread is to bake it well in a moderate oven, then roll finely with a paste tin. This saves buying rasp for ham, fish, etc. STATE OF OHIO, CITY OF TOLEDO LUCAS COUNTY. THE HARBOR LIGHTS OF HOME. I set my shallow on youth's shining sea That smiled up at the sun. "Hurrah!" I cried. "From home a rover free, I'll breast life's waves alone." And storm and night seemed faint and far away And old wives' hints of wreck. Like fairy tales, the while the sunshine lay Like gold upon the deck. But when upon the canvas of the cloud, Ink black in onward rush And hoarsely monthing of the thunder loud, The jagged lightning's brush Limmed me my folly with each vivid stroke, Then, in the driving foam And stinging spindrift as the tempest broke, "Home! Home!" I cried. "My home!" And through the inky curtain of the gale There comes a thread of light, And o'er the slitting of the useless sail Home voices cheer the night. For, see! Across the outer bar that lies Smothered in creamy foam There shines the welcome of a woman's eyes, The harbor lights of home! -J. L. Heaton in "The Quilting Bee." The Songs of the Navajoes. With the phonograph we may note down what is exactly the musical sequence in original songs. In "The Land of Sunshine" is an article entitled "Songs of the Navajoes," and there are notes of the music, as recorded on the phonographic cylinders, accurately scored. Mr. John Comfort Fillmore writes: From the standpoint of the scientific student of folk song, all these Navajo songs which I have had the opportunity to study are extremely interesting. This interest, too, is of several different kinds. The Navajoes, like all other makers of folk music, use their songs as a medium of poetic and emotional expression, and it is very interesting to note the quality of melody they employ for this purpose. One may note the range and kind of intervals, the kind of rhythm and meter and the quality of tone which these people find appropriate to the expression of certain ideas and feelings in song. A comparison of the Navajo songs in these particulars with the corresponding songs of other tribes and races would be a most interesting ethnological study, especially as the innermost life of all our aboriginal tribes is embodied in their music. So far as I know, all their prayers and expressions of religious feeling find outlet in song. So do all the deeper social emotions, and the historical records of the tribes, the traditions of noble deeds, the memories of good and bad fortunes received at the hands of the gods, all are recorded and handed down in the songs of the various societies. About the Same. "By the way, where is the major nowadays?" asked the mutual friend. "He is in an institution for the treatment of the feeble minded," said the colone., with a trace of acrimony in his voice. "You don't say!" Well, sah' don't call the place. She is a helpmate in very truth, though she may not be able to make a loaf of bread and has the most extraordinary ideas on domestic economy. She is a sort of mental bracer, the effervescence of the sunbeams brightening all within a radius of their influence. Life to her is never so gloomy but it could be gloomier. She revels in the very joy of living, and even when physical misfortune pursues her the beautiful soul smiles forth from the patient eyes until inwardly remark, "God bless her," and know that the world would be better if there were more like her. THE SUGAR CAMPAIGN AT CHINO. From the Champion. The sugar campaign is in full swing. Beets are being received by trainload and by wagon load, and fine white granulated sugar is being sacked for the market. According to program, last Saturday morning the elevators and slicers were started and the first beets of the crop of '97 were carried to the upper hopper, weighed and dropped into the slicers, where they were quickly reduced to cossettes. All moved along smoothly and successfully, with the exception of a little trouble in boiling. For the first few days the sugar turned out was not up to standard, and it will be remelted. First quality sugar is now being sacked, however, and no more difficulty is anticipated. The harvest on the Chino ranch commenced Monday morning. Only a few orders were given, however, and the deliveries have averaged but about 106 tons per day this week. In a few days the orders will be increased until the Chino fields will send in 500 to 600 tons a day. The total delivery from Chino fields to this morning is 524 tons. An average of 25 carloads a day are coming in from Anaheim and neighboring points. The sugar percentage of the Chino beets is very satisfactory. We append the daily average: SUGAR PURITY Monday.....15.4 80.4 Tuesday.....15.9 81.3 Wednesday.....15.7 81.0 HAVANA, Cuba, July 22.-The financial distress of the Spanish government in Cuba is shown by the following figures: $40,000,000 due since January to the regular army and $18,000,000 to the navy. It is estimated that the ordinary budget will close this year with a deficit of over $20,000,000. Not only is money lacking for paying the soldiers, but also for buying provisions and clothing. Food may be taken by force in the country towns, as Weyler is doing now, but clothes are more difficult to obtain. The Spanish soldiers now present pitiful spectacles. They are dressed in rags and resemble an army of tramps. In the streets of Havana they beg coppers from passers-by and enter the houses asking for bread. In many cases their misery has compelled them to steal and, as in Santa Clara a week ago, to assassinate. In that city they killed a man who threatened to inform the officers of their lawless conduct. Spanish merchants are the proprietors of all grocery banks and meatshops, and they are the first victims of the poverty of the army, for they are compelled to supply food to the soldiers even if they are ruined by these forced contributions. They begin to realize patriotism costs too much, and just as last year Cuban families emigrated by thousands to the United States, Mexico and South America in Bee County. New tins should be set over the fire with boiling water in them for several hours before food is put into them. Two or three thicknesses of newspaper laid on the floor before laying matting will treble the length of life of the matting. Cloth and felt hats can be cleaned with a short, hard brush dipped in ammonia. They should be brushed until the grease spots have disappeared.

THE SUNSHINY WOMAN ONE OF THE GIFTS OF GOD. The sunshiny woman, who always greets you with a smile that warms you to the heart, is one of the divinest gifts of God to man. Her name is not legion, neither is the priceless gem found in vast numbers, but like the diamond, she scintillates the more brilliantly amid dark and gruesome surroundings. The sunshiny woman as a girl is the particular star in the circle of classmates who in-after years, perhaps, forget the others, but who always dwell lovingly on the name, even in memory, of the gentle being who turned away the shadow and made the presence of the sun more evident. In the home she is one to whom mother looks for joyous sympathy and in whom father finds a restful delight after the fatigues of the day. If cook is cross, the children fretful or the financial bureau in a state of depression the sunshiny woman can always find even in such a doleful triumvirate something of a cheerful character, something which, once brought to light, raises the spirits of the household in proportion to their depression theretofore. When the sunshiny woman becomes About the Same. "By the way, where is the major nowadays?" asked the mutual friend. "He is in an institution for the treatment of the feeble minded," said the colone., with a trace of acrimony in his voice. "You don't say!" "Well, sah, they don't call the place by that name, sah. But you can see for yo'self that it amounts to the same thing. It is a water cure establishment, sah."—Cincinnati Enquirer. South African Chivalry. The following interesting little dialogue was heard last week at a wedding in a west end church. Parson—Who gives this woman away? Voice at Back of the Congregation—I could, but I won't.

Pfahler & Son. [m27-tf] In the streets of Havana they beg coppers from passers-by and enter the houses asking for bread. In many cases their misery has compelled them to steal and, as in Santa Clara a week ago, to assassinate. In that city they killed a man who threatened to inform the officers of their lawless conduct. Spanish merchants are the proprietors of all groceries, bakeries and meat-shops, and they are the first victims of the poverty of the army, for they are compelled to supply food to the soldiers even if they are ruined by these forced contributions. They begin to realize patriotism costs too much, and just as last year Cuban families emigrated by thousands to the United States, Mexico and South America, so now Spanish residents are closing business and emigrating by thousands to Spain. Spanish steamers leaving the island were never so crowded as they are today. The newspaper El Pais, official organ of the autonomists, which in time of peace was a daily organ of great importance, has no readers now. Its director, Del Monte, and leading editor, Montoro, told Weyler a month ago that the lack of revenue of El Pais would compel them to stop its publication. As the government entertains the hope that home rule and "reforms" may end the war through the influence of the autonomists it was resolved to subsidize El Pais. This was done and the expenses of the autonomist newspaper are now a burden upon the impoverished Spanish treasury. But even with its subsidy El Pais prints only 500 copies—a striking example of how unpopular the autonomy idea has become. Weyler says that with men and ammunition he can stand against the insurgents two years longer. When appealed to for money he exclaims: "Do the rebels ask money from their leaders? If they can fight without salaries may not Spaniards do the same?" Heavy desertions of Spanish soldiers make a general revolt by no means improbable, and such an event may be the end of Spain's rule in Cuba. Mr. C. L. Hasbrouck, a druggist at Mendon, Mich., says all of the good testimonials that have been published by the manufacturers of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy could be duplicated in that town.
