VALENSIN ESTATE.
The Mother and Niece of Deceased
File Claims Thereon.

The Mother and Niece of Deceased
File Claims Thereon.
Although the estate of Guilio Valensin
in Alameda Couty was appraised at $l75,
900, it is said that claims have piled up
against it to such depth as to bankrupt
1t.
In his will Valensin did not make any
reference to his debts. although the docu-
ment was drawn up and signed by him a
few moments before his DEATH He never
limited that he owed his mother large
sum of money or that he ever entered
into any kind of contract with his niece.
1t was, therefore, somewhat of a surprise
when Elena Nalensin. the mother Of the
decedent, brought suit in the Alameda
Superior Court on Wednesday, against
cover S4l ,325 60, claimed to be due for
money held by the Count for the benefit
of his mother. The defendants, of course,
are sued in their capacity as executors of
the estate.
Right on top of this suit another suit is
brought by Matilde Todesco, a niece, to
recover 1000, claimed to be due on a
contract. Both of the plaintiffs are in
Italy, but they have given power of at
torney to friend in San Francisco.
Referring to these suits, the San Fran
cisco Chronicle remarks that while the
executors are trying hard to get some
money into the estate the creditors are
trying just as hard to get it out, and, as a
result, the estate is about bankrupt. The
executors now have two hard contests to
fight, and it will be years before theprop-
erLy can be put in a condition tor final
distribution.

THE HIGHEST AWARD
Royal Baking Powder has all the Ho

Royal Baking Powder has all the Hon
ors-In STRENGTH and Value 90 per
cent. above It's Nearest Competitor.
The Royal Baking Powder has the en-
viable record of having received the
highest award for articles OF its class
greatest strength, purest ingredients,
most perfectly mbiued-whereve ex-
hibited i'll competition with others. The
result at the Chicago Worlds Fair is no
exception. In the exhibitions of former
years, at the Centennial, at Paris, Vienna
and at the various State and Industrial
fairs, where it has been exhibited. judges
have invariably awarded the Royal Bak-
ing Powder the highest honors
At the recent Worlds Fair the exam
lnation for the baking powder awards
were directed by the chief chemist OF the
Agricultural Department at Washington.
The chief CHEMISTS official report OF the
tests OF the baking powders, which was
made for the specific purpose of ascertain
ing which was the best, shows the leaven
ing strength of the Royal to be 100 cubic
inches of carbonic gas per ounce of pow
der. Or the cream OF tartar baking pow
ders exhibited, the next highest in
strength tested contained but I33 cubic
inches OF leaVenlng gas. The other pow
ders gave an average of Ill. The Royal,
therefore, was found Of 20 per cent. grealer
leayening strength than its nearest COM
petltor, and Al per cent. above the average
OF all the other tests. Its superiority in
other respects, however, in the quality of
the food it makes as to fineness, delicacy
and WholesomeneSs, could not be meas
ured by figures.
1t is these high qualities, known and
appreciated by the women OF the country
Tor so many years, that have caused the
sales of the Royal Baking Powder, as
shown by statistics, to exceed the sale of
all other baking powders combined.

partments. 1t really means, as Seneca
laconically said: "Deum sequi-to follow
/ God" which is the supreme rule of politi-
cal wisdom. The world has known q
passion for liberty, passion for equality,
| a passion for power, and has felt some
what the pressure of right, but it will
never be healed of it's disease until it
feels and knows the keenest passion for
holiness and universal justice. Let us,
therefore, never be guilty of building
affairs to an unknown God. and then
placing upon these altars the idols of de-
cayed and decaying empires, and then
finally sacrificing to them our liberty
and our manhood and carrying nothing
away but the heather oracles of doomed
race.
Rather let us follow hard by the three
great teachers of the universe, history,
conscience and experience, not leaving
out of sight the voice of Him who above
all others is worthy of our loving attach
ment and devoted discipleship.
AS Virgil has said: One good man in
a mop brought peace to tumultuous
crowd. Why not that matchless Being
/ with all the sovereign power and inn
mutable verities of God tranquilliZe the
| mob of human souls and lead our nation
| to triumphant success.
Why should not Christianity, with all
its vast moral force, its educated, intelli
gent leadership, It's influence IN politics,
art, science and literature, transform the
whole complexion of society? Our faith
Is that it Will. For time in the chang
ing periods of our history it's power may
| be suppressed apparently, and its glory
manitestly dimmed, but 1t will survive
as the tttest.
1t will be like the fountain of Arethusa
which pagan poets tell us about, that for
many league ran through the salt and
bitter sea, all the way from Peloponnesus
to Trinacria, and then came up pure.
sweet and sparkling water, far OFT IN IN
Oortegia, spreading greenness and growth
in the valley, where the anemOne and
asphodel paid back their beauty to the
stream which gave them their life. So
will flow the increasing streams of the
water of lite''; so will grow upon its
banks the perennial flowers and fruits of
righteousness and national prosperity.

The Barometer Still High, and Pros
pect of Less Rain.
The Weather Bureau reports show the
highest and lowest temperatures yester-
day to have been 620 and 54o with gentle
to fresh southerly winds and showery
weather prevailing.
The barometrical readings at A. NJ.
and P. NJ. were 1925 and 1924 inches,
respectively.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were $50 and 4So,
with $50 of an inch of rain, and one year
ago to-day $40 and 40 and .02 of an inch OF
rain.
The rainfall yesterday was rs of an
inch, and for the month 2.S2 inches.
while the seasons precipitation amounts
to 3.l6 inches. as against 7.48 inches to an
equal date last year.
There appears to be prospect of better
weather, as the barometer is still high,
but the clouds were last evening moving
from the northwest and very little rain
falls when the clouds move from that
quarter.

An Exciting Race In the Mud at Ag-
riculturnl Park.
A good-sized crowd from the vicinity
of Freeport and the Union House
gathered at the racetrack yesterday after
noon to witness the race between the
driving horses owned by MunrOe Nor
gan, Paul r. Sims, George Hamilton,
Fred Kirkland and q. Conlan, for SlOO
stake. The owners drove their own
horses, with the exception that w. D..
Hack drove for Morgan.
The track was in a very muddy condi-
ton and after each heat the drivers re-
sembled tirst-class football players on a
muddy field. The Judges were Messrs.
Goddard, Hunt and Wiley.
Morgan's PAGER was the favorite until
it began storming, when it became a
question OF endurance, and the popular
choice shifted about.
The PAGER took the first heat, with a
close finish for second place between the
horses of Sims and Hamilton, the latter
getting the place by nose.
Sims mare then took the race in three
straight heats. The following is sum-
mary OF the heats:

ELECTION CERTIFICATES.
The Candidates Elected Must Go I
the Courts Therefor.

1t is understood that several of the sue
cessful candidates at the recent city cleo
ton intend to at once sue out a writ of
mandate against the City Board of Trus-
tees to compel that body to issue their
certificates of election.
The presumption is that the majority of
the board will contest the suit and thus
bring on the issue of the validity of the
charter. In this way the city becomes
the real contestant on behalf of certain
defeated candidates, while those regu-
larIy elected must go to the expense of a
costly lawsuit to secure their rights.

ALONG THE wHARVES.

The week has been free of sensational
events. The tides and the Mattano con.
tinue to go on.
The need Of a fire boat Is generally &C
knowledged along the river front. The Dis
trict needs a new police boat and she
might also be fire boat. The Joe Black
burn does not fully meet the demands made
upon her. and the absolute necessity of q
fresh boat is only the question of little
time. The shipping of Washington has nc
protection from fire. When a boat begins
to blaze she is doomed. If she is tethered
at the dock, she will at once be cut loose in
order to save the surrounding property
Then fire boat could be Of service over a
wide range Of the city; it could play mighty
streams of water on any object within foul
or five squares OF the river
The steamer Mattano is running now un.
der the management of George r. Sheriff
ana G t. Jones. She is doing a good bust
ness. The River View steamer Samue
j. Pentz is at Baltimore undergoing sub
stantial repair. She will be much improved
In speed. and the tussels for supremacy be-
tween the River Queen. the Manchester and
the Pentz will be resumed next season.
The Mount Vernon travel is slim. Yester-
day was the best day of the week, when the
passenger list footed up about $50.

be as fine as either the Washington or the
Norfolk. and will be several tons larger
She will have one hundred state rooms and
increased freight capacity.

The Blackburn has had new pumps and
The kanawha lies idle and unclaimed by

The Buena Vista steamer Is laid I'D for

the last storm. is slowly improving.
Capt Geoghegan Of the Washington. who
has been i'll, has returned to his ship and
relieved Capt. Tulle.
The River Queen is laid up for the season
at the o street wharf.
She-iffs wharf has been repaired.
Extensive improvements have been made
to the Eastern branch houses of the Great

The ice trade is slack.
Oysters have been discouraged by the
warm weather.
Reuben II. Plass, cousin to Hermann
Plass. owner of the late W. w. Colt, was at
the wate- front this morning with a mis-
sion. What II was he did not say. The
wreck of the burned boat still obstructs
navigation.
1t is said that the underwriters have de-
termined on raising the Ella.
