NEWS NOTES.

The betrothal is announced of the
czarowitz, Grand duke Nicholas, to
Princess Alix Victoria Helena Louisa
Beatrice of Hesse.
The creditors of G. L. Webster & Co.
are disposed to help Mark Twain. He
is in his Goth year, has aged rapidly the
last few years, and his fortune is greatly
over-estimated.
1t is proposed that the United States
congress, in the name of the people, COM
plete the explorations of the north and
south polar regions and make an
annual appropriation Of $25, 900 for this
purpose.
The reported discovery of wonderful
deserted city in remote section of the
Sierra Madre mountains, in Durango,
has been verified by Maurice Lentow
and party of explorers. They found a
secret entrance to the city and made an
exhaustive exploration. They returned
laden with curiosities from abandoned
residences and temples. The population
of the city could not have been less than
$4,000.

ORIGIN OF DEATH VALLEY.

An Indian Legend Regarding Queen as
Beautiful Cleopatra
The Indian legend regarding the
origin of Death valley, in. Mayo county,
California, is an interesting one.
From the outer edge of this vast
furnace-it is three hundred miles
square and one hundred feet below sea
level-one may see far off, tremulous
through the shimmering waves of
heat, a sort of butte that has the form
of ruined castle. The story goes
that in the old days. before the Amar-
gosa river ceased to water the valleys,
the place was the site of powerful
city ruled by princess as beautiful as
Cleopatra and as imperious as Eliza
beth. An ambassador to the reigning
Aztec monarch described to her on his
return the glories of the kings palace
in the City of Mexico.
Resolving to equal the magnifcence
of her neighbor she began the erection
of vast building. All the laborers
and artisans of the city were employed
and the work was pushed night and
day. for within twelve months the
Aztec ruler was to be her guest, and
she wished to welcome him to pal
ace as splendid as his own. She ex-
hausted the resources of her realm,
men went mad with toll and hunger,
and at last the high priest protested.
He was ordered to execution, and, dy-
ing, cursed the city for the princess
sake. That night the earth shook and
sank, the river dried up and the
morning sun poured down a flood of
heat. All perished, and now the ruined
walls of the palace alone remain.
The Amargosa, by the way, is
most erratic stream. It flows south
ninety miles from it's fountain head in
the western Sierras, vanishes at Rest
ing Spring mountain, is in evidence
again for fifty miles, disappears for
space, then bobs up and runs along tur-
bulently for one hundred miles. All
trace of it is lost at Death valley.

GaIinrer on the Tariff.

WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Gal
niger spoke on the tariff bill. Galinger
denounced the bill as one nobody un-
qualitiedly approves except the senators
from Missouri and Indiana, McLaurin
and Turpie. Even the author entered
an apology for the measure. 1t is
strictly Southern bill, and most of the
New England money invested in the
South is forever lost if it becomes law.
He took up in turn the various industries
of New England that would be injured
if passed, and said the increased tax on
spirits would benefit alone the whisky
trust. Free wool will ruin this industry,
and the income tax was denounced as
sectional and unjust. The laboring
masses of the Nor. h hxd set the seal of
condemnation on the bill and no longer
stick to the ticket they voted last year,
but ally themselves with the party that
stands for protection, good wages, happy
and comfortable homes.

NEWS OF THE STATE.

A barber in La Grande named Ankeny

note posted on the Wallowa bridge stat
ing that he intended to jump into the
river. The note reads: "Notice-To

SO much whisky, making myself and
every body else enemies, have come to
the conclusion I would end my life by

Excess of Etiquette Kn,ea Him.

The rigid etiquette of courts has
more tEan once come near making a
martyr of the person whom the rules
prevented from aiding off-hand In
Spain these notions of etiquette were
carried to such an extent that Philip
III. met his death ia direct conse-
quence of them. The king was one day
grayely seated by a chimney where the
frernalzer of the court had lsindled so
great a quantity of wood that the mon
arch was being suffocated with heat.
His grandeur would not suffer him to
rise from the chair to call for help; the
oHicers-in-waiting were not within call,
and the domestics could not presume
to enter the apartment, because it was
against the etiquette. At last Mar
quis de Pobat appeared, and the king
ordered him to damp the fire; but he
excused himself, alleging that he was
forbidden by the etiquette to perform
such function, for which Duke
d'Asseda ought to be called upon, as it
was his business. The duke was gone
out, the fire burned fiercer, and the
king endured it rather than derogate
from his dignity; but his blood was
heated to such degree that erysipelas
broke out in his head the next day.
which, being succeeded by violent
fever, carried him off,

SAN FRANCISCO, April IS, 'e4.


SAN FRANCISCO, April 16, '94.
Editor CHRONICLE:
Sometimes we are compelled, no mat
ter how much we resent it, to take back
what we have said SO often that we have
come to believe it tie whole truth and
nothing but the truth, and such is the
case at present. The Dalles is not
the windiest place on earth. for if yester-
days wind storm is a fair sample of San
Francisco breezes. no place on the globe
can compare with it. However up till
yesterday we had fine weather and
ought not to complain though we were
so "blowed." Well, we have not
changed our minds in regard to the
merits of the Mldwinter fair, and the
more we see of it the better are we
pleased. Through the influence of Mrs
Barton, who is sister of Mrs. French
and in the Office of Mr.. DeYoung, and
the kindness of the executive secretary,
Mr.. Badlam, was allowed a pass into
the grounds without other recommended
ton, SO have had good opportunity to
see all that is to be seen. The best plan
is to spend day at a time on the
grounds, so that you may miss none of
the fine music by Sousa's band and also
enjoy watching the illumination in the
evening, which is grand, all of the prin-
cipal buildings being fringed with cleo
trio lights. The principal object of in
terest is the electric tower, about 200
feet high, and on which are arranged
different shaded lights TO represent
shields, stars, diamonds, etc., and on
the very top is powerful search light.
This tower is in the center of the court
flowers and plants. Directly in front of
the administration building is the alle-
gorical fountain, which do wieh could
describe, for think it one of the most
interesting things to be seen. One
statue particularly took my fancy, that
of a mining shaft, in front of which are
two miners at work, one holding in his
hand large hose from which flows
powerful stream of water. Near the top
of this fountain, below beautiful statue,
are the 9rds, california, the land of
sunshine and flow ers." The electric
fountain is situated in front of the liberal
arts building and plays at about
O'Clock every evening, when all other
illuminations are suspended for the
time. 1t must be eseen to be appreciated.
for it cannot be described. Those who
attended the worlds fair say this is one
OF the things which fully come up to
what was to be seen there.
The exhibits of the different counties
in California of course have sameness,
but are none the less interesting. The
orange exhibits of Southern California
are especially fine, comprising among
other things honses, arches, Ferris
wheels. etc., Of oranges.
The Examiner and Chronicle of this
city have offered prizes to be given by
vote to the county having the best ex-
hiiit. Saline county so far has the most
votes for the gold cup to be given by the
Examiner, hut as usual, it Sc ems to me
does not deserve it az much as many
others.

ing every day, bnt in spite of the efforts
