kept their courses and struck. The shock

TWO OF THE LOST CALIFORNIANs.
OAKLAND, Jan. 3I.-There is no doubt
that -. NJ. Brunson and Ida Brunson,"
whose names appear on the roll of the
EIbe's steerage passengers, are the young
military Captain and wife who started for
Berlin on December 18th last to present
their claims TO a 100000 share in the es-
tate Of Baron Won Barnekow. All the
circumstances of time and travel, and the
knowledge OF the young peoples inten-
tions in the event of failure, prove their
identity.
BrunsOn was we'll known as news
paper reporter, and for nearly year had
been connected with the Oakland office of
San francisco paper. His wife, whom
ne married last May, was only 10 years
| Old.
The story of Mrs. Brunson's short life
Is a romantic one. Twenty years ago
Baron Won Barnelson, the heir to an i'm
mense estate on the Baltic by virtue of
| being the oldest son in the family, came
! to California. In San Francisco he met
and married Mrs. Katie Green, who is
! still residing there. For some years the
| noDleman and his wife lived together,
and Ida Won BarnelsOn and twin sister
were born. Ida, who alone survived, is
! the girl who subsequently adopted the
name of Green when her mother resumed
! II. The marriage of Mrs. Green to the
Baron was not happy one. Ida was
placed IN the Convent OF the Sacred
| Heart, San francisco, and was educated
at her fathers expense.
Baron Won BarnelSOn returned to Ger
many to claim his estate at the death of
his father, and there he died without
making any provision for the support of
his wife or daughter, though he had been
exceedingly attached to the little one.
| He lived with his wife up to the time of
| his departure, and it was his attention to
return to California. Litigation over the
estate followed the baron's death, and it
was in the hope of favorably ending the
/ case that the young couple started for
! Germany less than two months ago, with
! little money, to push their claim.
! 1t is evident from the fact of the sud-
! den return that either the case was COM
promised with the opposing heirs, or that
| the prospect was hopeless, and the circum-
stances of travelling in the steerage tells
! plainly Of failure.
