Pay the Price of the Royal for Royal only

Royal Baking Powder is shown by actual chemical tests absolutely pure and 27 per cent. greater in strength than any other brand.
 Many second-class brands of baking powder are urged upon consumers at the price of the high-cost frst-class Royal.
 These powders, because of the inferior quality of their ingredients cost much less than the Royal, besides being of 27 per cent less strength. If they are forced upon you, see that you are charged correspondingly lower price for them.

Condon globe. (Condon, Gilliam Co., Or.) 189?-1919, 1894-04-20

When off the island February 26 che
sighted q small schooner, which after q
great deal Of effort ran under her lee
and showed flag OF most peculiar de-
sign, the like OF which was never seen
before. 1t was in two pieces, and the
lower half was from the American flag,
while the upper half looked like black
pennant. The vessel had been white
once, but her sides were covered with
grass. The mainsail appeared to be new,
and as for the foresail there was only
half OF one, and that was all patches
and holes. The name OF the little craft
could not be made out, as she kept re-
spectful distance from the bark. Cap
tain Luttrell thought he recognized in
her the twenty-fve-ton schooner Ebon,
whose skipper, Captain Cameron, disap-
peared from the Gilberts early in 1893,
leaving some heavy creditors. Cameron
and his schooner were afterward heard OF
in the Marshall Islands.

The Alaska Survey.

SAN FRANcIsco. When the United
States steamer Patterson leaves this port
on the 21st OF this month she will have
on board four parties from the coast sur
vey bound for Alaska. The parties con-
sst of surveyors and astronomers, who
will devote themselves to making sur
veys on the boundary line between
Alaska and British America. These
surveys have been in progress for several
seasons, and are now completed from
the Arctic regions to Mount st. Elias.
This year work will be finished from
this point south. The United States
steamer, Captain Harder, viii be placed
at the service OF the surveyors for the
purpose of communication and the car
rying out of the chronometers.

A NEW SCHEME.
Chinese Deported to China Landed In
British Columbia.

Chinese Deported to China Landed In
British Columbia.
VICTORIA, B. C.-Yee Lee, Yee Chung
and Fong Chong Yuen, deported from
the United States and shipped to China
by the steamer Tacoma, have been land
ed here with habeas corpus sworn out
by friends before Justice Drake. On the
arrival OF the ship the head tax of $50
was paid for each, and they presented
the receipts to Captain Hill. He re-
fused to recognize them, holding that he
had contracted with the United States
government to deliver them in China,
and that as such he was acting as agent
OF said government. A writ of habeas
corpus was then obtained and an order
for their release made. The steamship
was delayed nearly all day. This is the
first case of the kind, and will either
lead to a speedy understanding between
Washington and Ottawa or TO the depor-
tation OF all Chinese from San Francisco.
If sharp lookout is kept, the three
Cinnamon will probably be caught en-
tering the United States again.

FUHRMAN ACQUITTED.
Krug's Bondsmen Declared Not to be
Guilty of Crime.

krug'S BOndsmen Declared Not to be
Guilty of a Crime.
SEAgTLE.-The trial of Henry Fuhr-
man, the rich broker, for using the city
funds as an accessory to Adolph Krug,
the defaulting City Treasurer, ended in
q verdict for the defendant. The trial
lasted five days, and was closely con-
tested. The specific charge was concern
ing the $4,000 which Fubrman was al
lowed by Krug to take. Krug was con-
victed on this same Indictment a few
days ago. Fuhrman's defense was that
he took the money on deposit the same
as the banks did. 1t was shown that he
returned every dollar borrowed and has
made up the shortages OF several other
borrowers by putting up about three
times his proportion of the defaulting
Treasurer's official bond. Ex- United
States Senator John B. Allen and E. G.
Hughes conducted the defense, and
made eloquent pleas for the defendant.
The jury was out but little over an hour,
and returned verdict Of mot guilty"
Several other prominent citizens were
indicted on similar charges, and this ac-
quittal is supposed to greatly relieve
them.

the city OF Astoria from collecting GER

tie surprise here, not unmixed with dis
satisfaction. Many of the property
owners interested refused to pay until
the case was heard in the lower court,
but as soon as the decision was learned
a majority OF the assessments were
promptly paid, the opinion being pretty
general that Judge McBride's ruling
would hold good. Those who took the
case to the higher court were only inter-
ested to the extent of few hundred
dollars, and in consequence the loss to
the city will be small, as none OF the
property owners paid under protest.
The grounds upon which the ruling Of
the Circuit Court was reversed have not
yet been learned, but it is surmised that
the ordinances providing for the inn
provement OF the street were illegal, by
reason OF the fact that there was no
Mayor, the President of the Council
having signed all measures passed after
the resignation of Mayor Crosby in 1892
and until the election of Mr.. Elmore by
the Council.

THAT NAUGHTY DANCE.
Jury of San Franciscans to Pass Upon
the Question of Its Morality.

SAN FRANcIsco.--The trial of Belle
Baya and bevy of the Cairo street
dancing girls, instigated by the Society
for the Prevention OF Vice for the pur-
pose OF securing legal determination
Of the question as to whether the danse
du ventre is immoral, was called this
afternoon by Judge Conlan. The de-
PENDANTS after their arrest several days
ago demanded jury trial, and the aft
ernoon was passed in fruitless effort to
secure the jury. Nearly all those sum-
moned confessed they had seen the
dance, and because of previous bias of
mind or judgment already fixed or for
other sufficient reasons were dismissed
as incompetent. After much trouble a
Jury was finally secured, and the case
went over till next week. There was a
great deal of disappointment on the part
OF q large crowd which assembled at the
courtroom because the door was barred
upon them, the Judge proposing to con-
duct the trial only before the jury, at
torneys and witnesses. 1t is probable
the young women will be called upon to
perform the dance before the jury that
the case may be determined upon its
merits,
