Comparative
Digestibility
of Food
Made with different Baking Powders
From a Series of Elaborate Chemical Tests:
An equal quantity of bread (biscuit) was made
with each of three different kinds of baking powder
cream of tartar, phosphate, and alum and submitted
separately to the action of the digestive fluid, each
for the same length of time.
The relative percentage of the food digested is
shown as fellows :
Bread made with
Royal Cream of Tartar Powder:
100 Per Cent Digested
Bread made with
phosphate powder:
684 Per Cent Digested
Bread made with
alum powder:
673 Per Cent. Digested
These tests, which are absolutely reliable and
unprejudiced, make plain a fact of great importance
to everyone : Food raised with Royal, a cream of
tartar Baking Powder, is shown to be entirely diges
tible, while the alum and phosphate powders are found
to largely retard the digestion of the food made from
them.
Undigested food is not only wasted food, but it
is the source of very many bodily ailments.

AT KING ALPHONSO
King's Presence of Mind Saves
Him From Death in
Madrid
Madrid. Kor tie third time in hi
reign, Kiug Alfonso narrowly escaped
being the victim of an anarchistic at
tempt against his life. Three shot
were fired at the king in the streets
of the capital by a native of Parcel
ona, Rafael Sanchei Allegro, who was
immediately overpowered.
King Alfonso owes his escape to hi
courage, quickness and skilled Horse
manship. Accompanied by his staff
he was ridir.g along the Calle de Al
. cala, returning from the ceremony of
I swearing in recruits, when a man
sprang from the sidewalk and seized
the bridle of the king's horse with
, one hand, pointing a revolver point
I blank with the other. " The king, real
I izing the situation with lightning ra
; pldity, dug his spurs into his horse,
i which readed violently.
His quickness saved his life. The
bullet, instead of burying itself in the
king's breast, struck the horse. So
I close was the range that the king
left glove was blackened by the pow
i der discharge.
llefore the assailant was able to
! pull the trigger again a secret service
man sprang upon him. The two men
fell to the ground locked in each oth
ers arms, strugglings furiously. The
assassin freed his revolver arm
and fired two more shots in rapid sue
cession, but the officer knocked his
arm aside and the bullets flew harm'
lessly through the air.

OF GENERAUNTEREST
Events Occurring Throughout
the State During the Past
Week.
Capsized Mlml Drops From View
Bay City. "Ships that pass In the
Light" was an expression which every
shoreman hereabouts recalled wheu
they awoke to find that the German
bark Mlml, which turned turtle, had
dropped out of sight completely.
Whether or not the high seas have
carried the ill-fated craft further to
sea is not known, as all hands have
given up the Idea of recovering Cap
tain Westphal's papers, or recovering
any bodies of the several sailors who
passed to watery graves.
SQUAW DEFIES CITY
Pendleton Water Source Held by We-
nix and Red Elk
Pendleton. Another chapter in the
famous case of City of Pendleton vs.
Wenix and her son. Red Elk Cayuse
allottees on the Umatilla reservation
was added when the city of Pendle
ton filed suit against the aged squaw
and her son, praying for immediate
ejectment of the Indians from the
property on which their tepees are
now pitched and where they are liv
ing, and for $250 damages.
Through condemnation proceedings
two years ago the city acquired title
to a small portion of the Wenix al
lotment, on which there is a spring,
and $2500 was given her for same by
the court. She has never drawn out
a dollar of the money awarded her,
nor has she made any attempt to move
from the Spot where she has lived for
a great number of years. Her son,
Red Elk, also has refused to move.
The same spirit of resistance ex
hibited from the time the first over
ture- was made for the purchaaing of
the land until the matter had been
settled in court Is still In evidence.

Criticism of the llfesavers was se
vere among the spectators during the
long watt between the turning over
of the Mlml, about 3 o'clock April 7,
and the rescue of the four survivors
26 hours later. It was said that Cap
