The WIFE OF
AN EMPEROR.
Boston Italians Fooled by an
Austrian Fraud Claim
a Throne.
HAVE PAID HIM CASH.

BOSTON, May 15.-A woman who
claimed to be Carlotta, the wife OF
Macmillan, former emperor of Mexico
n brother of Francis Joseph, present
emperor of Austria, has, it is reported
here, left the city after securing some
$4,000 from members of the Italian
colony on the pretense that she was
the rightful claimant to the Austrian
throne.
She is, it is said, being sought by over
100 residents of the north end district,
who for almost eight years have been
paying her money to enable her, as
they supposed, to gain possession OF
the Austrian throne, upon which event
taking place she promised that those
who helped her would be made minis
tates. One woman, the wife of a prom
inent Italian, gave her $4,000 on the
strength of the promise that h should
be made a duchess. An organ grinder
contributed a few hundred dollars, all
his savings, on the understanding that
he should be made court musician.
Others contributed tens and hundreds
on similar assurances.
Many Italian residents secretly visit
ed her at her royal headquarters. a
handsomely furnished room in q dwell
ing house on the corner of two south
end streets, where the pseudo queen
sat Oh IN imposing throne, r~esplendent
in red cloth and tinsel and graciOusly
allowed them to kiss her hand on the
occasions on which they brought her
tributes of money. At each side of the
throne stood fake courtiers and q body
guard who clanked stage arms.
Italians m fairly familiar with Aus
trian history, and when they were told
that Carlotta had come here to collect
a few faithful followers on whom she
could rely and enough money to return
to Austria and use in connection with
her all powerful secrets and that those
who aided her would bask when she
gained the throne in her royal favor
they believed their fortunes were made.
Recently the Italians were getting
rather suspicious and began to hint
openly that Carlotta and the henchmen
were delaying matters. Recent visits
to the throne room disclosed that the
birds had flown.

The first biennial report of Labor
Commissioner Hoff, of oregon, shows
that there are about $500 japanese
in the state, divided by counties, as
follows: Baker 2O5, Benton G, Clacka-

He reports that he has investigated
all the living quarters of the Japan
ese and find them cleanly and health
full and peculiarly free from the OBJ
noXious Mongolian odor noticed in the
homes of Chinese.
The Japanese are mostly employed
on railway grades, although many of
them are domestics and janitors and
all are temperate and intelligent. The
one peculiar feature of the japanese
population is that nearly all those in
the United States are under 80 years
of age. Scarcely an old man is found
among them.
The average wages of the japanese
laborers on farms is from $26 to $S5
per month; on railway work, from
$2S to $35; and cooks and domestics,
from $40 to $35.
The Japanese mission in Portland
is attended by about 20 pupils, and
there are two night schools, where
from so to 60 receive instruction.
The proportion of women and chill,
dren among the Japanese population
in oregon is only per cent.
The average cost of living of the
Japanese laborer is $3.50 per month,
while the Chinese live on an average
cost of $40. The Japanese con-
sumo SO per cent American manu-
factures, while the Chinese consume
but 40 per cent American goods. The
japanese purchases all his clothing in
this country.
There are nine Japanese in school
in Oregon to one Chinaman.

quick consumption at the county hos
pital Saturday afternoon, and was
buried in Olney cemetery today, Rev

services being conducted at the RAIDER

Callju was swedish boy, and came
to this city from Pasco several weeks

nue., Chicago, but the money sent him
this week was sent to a former ad-
dress given by the son, and conse-
quently went astray.
He was i'm the city last week and
inquired for his mail, but received
none at the postoffice, as a register
ed letter had been sent to a former
street address given by him, and was
then waiting for him.
A railroad ticket had also been
sent to him, but this also he failed to
receive and died without hearing
from the letters written home, al
though all his letters had been an
swered by his parents, but went
astray.
