Pathetic Story of the Bru nsons.

Oakland, CAL, Feb. There Is no
doubt that B. NJ. Brunson and Ida Brun-
son, whose names appear in the list of the
Elbo's storage passengers, are the young
military Captain and wife who started for
Berlin in December last to present their
claim to S26O.OOO shares in tie estate of
Baron Barnekow. All the circumstances
of tine and travel and the plan of the
young couples intentions in the event of
failure, prove their identity.
Yhe story of Mira. Brunson's short life is
a romantic one. Twenty years ago Baron
von Barnekew, the heir to an immense
estate IN Germany by virtue of being tbs
Oldest son in the family, came to Cali.
fornia. In San Francisco he met and
married Mrs. Green, who is still residing
here. For some years the nobicman and
his American wife lived together, and Ida
Won Bnrnekow and twin sister were born.
Ida, who alone survived, is the girl who
subsequently odopted the name of Green
when her mother resvmed it. The marri-
age of Mrs. Green to the Baron was rot
happy one. Ida was placed in the Convent
of the Sacred Heart, San Francisco, and
there and at Miss Lakes private school
she kas educated ut her fathers expense.
f/baron von Barnekow returned to Ger
many to claim. his estate at the death of
his father, and there he died without max
ing any provisions for the support of his
wife or daughter, though he had been ex-
coedingly attached to the little one. He
had lived with his vito up tu the time of
bis departure, and it was his intention to
return to California. Lit,gotlon oyes tho
estate followed tho Baron's death, and it
was In the hope Of favorable ending the
csse that the young couple started for Ger
many less than two months ago with little
money to push their claim. II is evident
(fom tho fact of the Sudden return that
aishsr tho cass WAC compromised wish tine
~. y.,...,y heirs or Tint tho prospect was
hopeless, and The CIRCUMSTANCES of thoir
traqeling In the storage tells plainly Of
allure.

A SPLIT PROBABLE.

The indications if We are to
Judge by the press of the differ
ent sections of the state, are that
the state nominating convention
will not be very harmonious and
a split is probable. The silver
and ballot reform will be the we'd
ges of dissension.
The silverites will insist on q
silver platform and the reformers
will want reform plank.
The tendency of split is alrea-
dy shown in several parishes
where q division is made, and a
double delegation will go to the
convention.
The dissatisfied and defeated
candidates will be too glad t.
split the party and join forces
with the Republicans and Popu
lists, who seem determined to pu
out full state ticket composed o
men better than the present stat
administration.

THE WHITE rIAN's PARTY MIXED,

Some of the country papers,
whose editors, undoubtedly, are
among the ms, and are fearing to
be with the outs, after the coming
election, are loud in their cries of
the white mans party, when re-
fering to the Democratic party.
This is a most ridiculous esser-
ton, not to say absurd.
We believe the Sugar, or The
Lilly Whites as they are ironical-
" called, are whittier than the So
called. white mans party. Every
man who has little bit of sense
knows that in several parishes in
the northern part of the state,
the Democrats have had mixed
primaries, Of negroes and whites,
hnd in many cases, the whites
have voted for negroes, and it
would not surprise us to see some
negro delegates at the so-called
white mans convention.
On the other hand the Sugar OF
Lilly Whites, have positively aud
squarely refused to combine oil
have anything to do with the ne
groes, and have refused all pro
position to combine. Which Ii
the Winter?
Those of our brother editors
who are in, or want to 60 II
should try to do SO on their owl
merits, and should drop that ridi
culous claim of the White Man.
Party their wilderness is tainted
and very much SO, by pretty dec
black spots.

Norwegian Linnor sxstem.

The address on this subject delivered
 in our city by Dr. Moxom two months ago elicited decided interest. Discus sion in the daily papers showed that people were thinking on the matter and wanted to know more about it. There is probably no man in the country so well informed on the subject as John Graham Brooks, the Massachusetts state commissioner of the Norwegian system MT. Brooks has made pro- longed investigation in Norway, and the Brooks Reports" constituted a basis of facts used for argument by friends and foes of the system. He has studied not only the working of the plan in Norway, but the problem of its adaptibility to American cities. The Mems club of United church has secur- ed his services for an address next Sunday evening at 7:30. He will not appear as an advocate, but to give in- formation as to the way this liquor system is working in Norway and the of it that are now engaging attention in America. MT. Brooks is a forceful and telling speaker The Mems Sunday Evening club are doing a service to our city in affording New Haven people the opportunity of hear ing the Norwegian liquor system dis eussed by a man who has studied 1t as he has.
