The witnesses aay he did; aay he didn't. All of which Impelled Municipal Judge Stevenson to remark yesterday. "What a peculiar verdict," when a Jury stated that It did not believe J. S. McKay, an Irvington dairyman, had delivered milk from his large cans to the individual small receptacles of his customers, although the court thought the point was plainly demonstrated in the hearing. The verdict given was "not guilty, by reason of insufficient evidence," McKay being charged with bulk de livery of milk to customers when the city ordinance provides for glass bot tles or sanitary paper cartons. Another complaint will be riled im mediately against the dairyman, as the matter at issue Involves one of the most vital points of the ordinance. Yesterday's Jury consisted of N. F. Brady, W. A. Lovett, W. D. Jameson, G. W. Dixon, E. I Howe and C. W. Borne. URY ARMSTRONG CASE IS STILL OUT Unconfirmed Reports Say Vote Stands 10 to 2 and 7 to 5 for Conviction.

"Before you go," said Hewston, Til snap these handcuffs on you to show you how they work," and suiting action to word he snapped one on her fair wrist and one to his own. Tve lost the key," then said Hews ton by way of a Joke, but the Joke waa on him, for the key waa missing. The p611ceman on the beat was called, but his key was too large. Desperately I Hewston dissected an alarm clock for a piece of steel spring. This attempt failed. As the clock ticked on past the hour of eight Hewston picked and picked and picked, succeeding in re moving the pesky cuff after an hour of genuine hard work. It la understood the engagement was not kept.

Concerning the I Baking Powder Controversy and The Pure Feud Squad! .The Baking Powder Trust, in their desperate efforts to secure business and DRIVE OUT ALL COMPETITORS, are resorting to the mostques-, tionable methods of ATTACK ON THE PUR ITY ANDWHOLESOMENESS OF CRESCENT BAKING POWDER. These attacks are being maido by a soMcallecI PURE FOOD SQUAD, visiting the residenal. districts, by the distribution of anonymous (un- signed) circulars and by misleading advertise ments. The fact of the matter is, the Trust Bakfng Powders object to the growing popularity of Crescent, which remarkable growth and popu larity is due entirely to the PURITY OF ITS INGREDIENTS, ITS CONFORMITY TO THE PURE FOOD LAWS, ITS FAIR PRICE, ITS WHOLESOMENESS AND ITS ABILITY, TO "RAISE THE DOUGH BETTER." f -. U We admit that this is a pretty hard combina tion for the Trust hence their desperate jittempts to discredit Crescent Baking Powder.. ; : We also admit that it has been hard to com-, bat the UNDERHAND, MISLEADING AND VICIOUS METHODS adopted by the Trust and. its allies in territory where Crescent Baking Pow der is being sold, which territory extends from San Diego to the coast of British Columbia and thence East, including New Mexico, Nevada, Idaho and Montana. THE BEST BAKING POWDERS IN THE WORLD CAN BE MADE TO RETAIL AT 25c PER POUND. The Trust wants you to believe otherwise, because their product sells for 45c and 50c The difference represents Trust profits.; We ask you to try CRES CENT BAKING POWDER at oiir expense. You can do this because if, after you try it, it is not entirely satisfactory," your grocer will refund your money. CRESCENT MANUFACTURING COMPANY SEATTLE A .
