Both health and the pocket of the people are demanding protection. The legislatures of New York, Illinois and Minnesota have taken this matter of adulteration up, and especially that of Baking Powders. It will be in the interest of public health when their sale is made a misdemeanor in every State in the UNION, and the penalties of the law are rigidly enforced. There is no article of human food more wickedly adulterated than that of Baking Powder. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is the only pure cream of tartar powder having a general sale that is free from ammonia, alum or taint of any kind of impurity. It makes the sweetest and lightest bread, biscuit and cake that are perfectly digestible whether hot or cold. It costs more to manufacture Dr. Price's than any other baking powder. It is superior to every other known and the standard for forty years. Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder is re ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia, Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, the purity of this ideal powder has never been ques- tioned. Notice ti Witter Conauinera.

I dodged in the cellarway for pro tection, and with the door partly open saw the fellow reach behind tne screen and take all the money there he could reach, amounting, as near as I can guess, to 1.200. and he deliberately put it in bis pocnet and walked out."

A telegram re ceived in 1'aris fiom Brazzaville, in the French Congo country, seals the late of the t'aul Crampel ex pedition, and places the young explorer among the martyrs of science a'nd exploration. This telegram, dated July 17th, says that Crampel was assassinated on April Oth, with Mohammed lien said, the Arab interpreter, and two Senegal skirmishers, in the wilderness toward Haghirmi. Crampel left Franco a ' year ago last inarch with the hope of open ing up the way from the Congo to Lake Tchad across the unknown country to the rich lands of llag- lurmi, Corno and bokota. Cramiiel, who was less than .'!0 years of age at the time ol his death, first went to French Congo in 1S88 as secretary to le urazza. The following year he obtained authority to explore all the region lying between Lastourville on the Ogowe, and the rivers Benito and Cauipo, a district completely un known and witli which it was iinKrtaiit for Fienchmen to be better acquainted. ii August i, 1S.SS, his little company, in which he was the only Kur p -an, led l.afloiu ville aii'l penetrated into the country of the piguii-s.

Urand Duke Alexis In liliig. 1'auis, August 11. There is Scarcely a doubt the non-arrival here yesterday of the Grand luke Alexis was entirely due to his dis inclination to be the recipient of the enthusiastic welcome the citi zens of I'aris had prepared for him. The crowd learned that he would not arrive vesterdav, but they did not learn when be would reach laris, and consequently when the train rolled into the station this morning no one was present, officially or unofficial', to receive him. As he reached the platform be was recognized by a crowd of at least 1000 perjoi.s. The greeting they gaye the grand duke was enthusiastic. The grand duk, bowing and smiling at the warmneBS of his welcome, despite his attempt to avoid it. entered a carriage and was immediately driven to a hotel. Fire at Fresao, Cal.

NEWS CONFIRMED The Steamship City of Panama Was Detained. 9TAKTED WITHOUT FIR1IIT Ttat Was the Excuse for Stopping Eer - The Real Cams Wat That 8ame Refugees Were oi Board Ni:w loRK, Aug. ll.-T-The re port that bus come up from San Salvador that the Pacific Mail steamship City of Panama has been detained by the authories of San Salvador at La Libert ad was confirmed last night by Superin tendent H. J. Bulley, of the Paci fic Mail company. "We received a dispatch this merning from Captain White of tha City of Pan ama, said Mr. JJullay, "which gives us vary meager information, nd has evidently been through the hands of the San Salvador authorities. We gather from the dispatch, however, that there were some political refugees aboard the City of Panama, either citizens oj Guatemala or San Sal vador, whom the San Salvador government wanted to get hold of. 1 he Citv of Panama left I -a Union ou August i without the regular permit of clearance papers. Capt White had waited long after the allotted time foi his papers, and so be started oil' without them, as is often d .ne in special cases and iu case of stress of weather and the like. Our steamships cannot alford to be delayed at one of the Central American ports over time. e have a contract with these Central Ameiican republics to car ry their mails, and if our ships are held iu one place the other coun tries sutler. hen Captain White cot to La Liberlad.anotberdemand was made for the refugeos, appar ently, and then the vessel was s-.-ized. Whether it was on ac count of the failure to give up the refugees or on account of Captain White's leaving La Union witnout a permit, does not appear. At last accounts the United States war vessel H mger was at La Lib ertad, and, altluugh she is not a dangerous craft, 1 think she will suswer the purpose in the case of the San JSalvadoriana if necessary. We will probably have more deli nite intormation fiom Captain White in a day or two." Trying to Iestroy (rasalioppers. San Francisco, August 11.

The Swiss government has nearly completed the work of fortifying Mount St. Got hard, thereby making it im possible for a hostile force to de scend into Switzerland from that ijuarter. This renders the country secure against invasion at a point which has heretofore been vulner able, and an army endeavoring tc pass through the gaps of the mounts would lie exposed to an exterminating fire. DKESS KEFOKM Kite Field a Ideas On The Propsed Scheme. Miss Kate Field, when asked what she thought about the pro posed Chautauqua dress reform for women, she said that she hardlv knew what the Chautau . ... qua ieopie were driving at. t here is one tiling sure. Miss Field said, "the projected change in woman dress won t be carried out unless the fashionable leaders say so and set the example, no matter how much the reform is agitated at Chautuaqua or any where else. Take shop girla, who perhaps as a class are the silliest of business women. They cer tainly need the free use of all their muscles, but do you think that they would adopt any dree but a conventional one? "The reform, as I understand it is more particularly for profess ional and business women, but they are by no means heedless of fashion. But the fact remains that our dress naturally and by the pre vailing styles hampers us. We all know that our own girls' waists are too long and too small." " Would you do away with cor sets to make a beginning of the reform?" "Oh, no; that could never be with the present fasiaon-makera. Why, the leading dressmakers will not make a garment for a cus tomer unless she wears a corset, and they dictate just the kind of a corset abe shall wear, too. . If . these women reformers propose a sort of embroidered bathing" suit for a walking dress well, all I can say is that I have eeen some very pretty bathing suits." TOO 8HAKP FOR Til EM. Tried to Catch Blna With Decoy Letters bat Failed. Omaha. Aug. 11. Three thous and dollars in gold has been stolen from the Merchants' .National bank and the thief has not yet been ap prehended or definitely located. It is a mysterious case, that has been causing the Merchant!' Na tional ban it no end of trouble. Suspicion fell upon Paul Tate, a young bookkeeper, w ho has been working tor the bank, ana it was only a few days after the loss of tne money that young late in formed the bank officers that he was going to leave their employ ment, having secured a better sal ary. His resignation was accepted and he left the city. A detective found that late had not gone where he bad aunounced. A year or so ago he met a young lady from San trancisco, whowasvisit- ng in Omaha w ith the family of a prominent banker, and fell in love with her. He has been corres ponding with the young lady since her return home. This fact came to the knowledge of the detective and he at once began to lay a trap into which the young man might be led by bis affections. Decoy letters were sent inviting him to California, and a nice little scheme tixed up for the young man's bene fit, but it has not worked as yet. THE CKbEI.
