The machinery of the law has not been put to work
too speedily against the fraudulent use of ammonia and
alum in Baking Powders. 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 tUe
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.

The game began at Tex ark an a.
It was the oddest one of the big

when four big ranchmen who
owned between them thousands
of acres and ten of thousands of
cattle in Texas met at the terminus
of the Iron Mountain road.

The value of the clips was stated
in unusual terms, a white standing
for a steer, a red chip for five
Bteers and a blue for ten steers.
From Texarkana to St. I-ouiB

although 100 hands were played
in that time. ui wnen iuej

every third hand the betting ran
high.
Luck turned in one oi the
players' favor the man who had
least rocks, by the way and when
the multiplying lights on the
nrairie showed that the train was
nearing Chicago the game ended -The
other three men had lost
every chip they had, had borrow

A dispatch from Midland, Texas,
cava that tha United States De
partment of Agricnlture rainfall
expedition has so far made two
successful experiments. One of
t bo nnrte in an interview Said to
day : "On Saturday and Monday a
preliminary trial oi pari oi ine
rain-makiDg apparatus was had
and about ten hours after the ex
plosion heavy clouds ga'herea
and rain fell over many miles of
surface. We do not think that the
explosions actually produced the
storm, but they were undoubtedly
instrumental in precipita'ing the
moisture which the clouds brought
to that locality and greatly increas
ed ' the intensity of the storm.
i ne amount ot precipitation was
greatest in the vicinity of the op
eration. We will continue to
make tests as to the density of the
atmosphere, so the bombs may be
adapted to meet every possible
condition. When sufiicently sat
isf. ctory upon these and similar
points a decisive experiment will
be made." The rain to day was
the first good rain in this vicinity
for several months.
TUB WAR IN CHILE.
Comer Reports Denied The Tree
Status or the Case.
London, Aug. 14. Cable dis
patches from Balmacedan sources
in Santiago de Chile have been re
ceived here denying the reports
that fighting had taken place be
tween the government troops and
the insurgent forces at Valparaiso
and Coquimbo. August o I, accoid-
mg to these dispatches, the gov
ernment torpedo boat Almirante
Coidell attacked the congressional
party s cruiser Esmeralda and a
number of transports at Caldera.
A number of torpedoes were dis
charged from the Almirante Con
dell, but as the attack was made
at night, and as it was very dark,
the results were not known. None
of the rebel vessels have since
been seen near the provinces held
by President Balmaceda. The dis
patches further state that reports
as to strained relations between
Chile and Bolivia, uroning out of
the latter s rec. giiitioti.of t tie in
surgents as belligetents, are un
true, and that the t-toiies ot cruel
punishments intlictcd by the gov
ernment are pure inventions.
1 anama. Aug. 0. Late Chile
mail advices from the southeast
bring but little news of interest
from the seat of war. here has
been slight fighting on land, which
in one case resulted in the con
gressional forces capturing a col
onel, and on the other hand, their
forces were driven out ot valleuar
and that town recaptured for Bal
maceda.
A dispatch from Iquique says
that the congressional steam trans
port Ma'.eo brought a large supply
of munitions of war, including
eeventy-uve Krupp guns of differ
ent calibers and 12,000 magazine
rifles, with a plentiful supply of
ammunition, it is not known
where they were embarked.
El Nacional. the congressional
organ, came out with a scathing
article against United states Min
ister Egan, who. in a letter ad
dressed to the Iquique junta, ex
pressed the opinion that it is im
possible for them to overthrow
Balmacjda. This incident, along
with the Itata business, has caused
a bitter feeling against the United
States.
WELL THRA8HEB-
Tlat was What Happtaed to a Brldegrooa
EiptottaU
A report from Marshalltown,
Iowa, says that one of the jiost
sensational domestic episodes that
city has ever known for years
occurred recently. Dr. Rosa
Upson, secretary of the State
Pharmaceutic? 1 Association, has a
daughter by a former marriage,
r,lla Martin. A young blacksmith
named George Brock has been
keeping company with a girl for
about a year clandestinely, owing
to her mother's opposition, and
they were engaged to be married.
Last night Brock went with a
hack to the Upson domicile to get
the girl and effects. Mr. and Mrs.
Upson assaulted Brock, got him
down on the flo r of the hall, and
while her big lord held him Mrs.
Upson beat him terribly over the
head with a buggy whip,
badly disfiguring his countenance.
Brock managed to blacken Upson's
eyeB and both were covered with
blood. Mrs. Upson then walked
the streets, wailing like one crazy
searching for her daughter, who
had slipped away during the en
counter. Mr. and Mrs. Upson were ar
rested at 1 o'clock this morning
and gave bonds for futber hearing
to-morrow. Brock is a son of
Claud II. Broc'c, clerk of
the Senate of the last General
Assembly.
It Should Have Been Done Before.
The subscription started by G.
Wingate at Clatsop beach last
Monday is to place two tin bouys,
secured by mushroom anchors,
400 feet apart at the Hue of ex
treme low tide. Lines are to be
run from the buoys with a suffi
cient number of floats on them.
Between tne side lines ethers will
be run from shore 50 feet apart, to
the outer line. On the shore will
be a reel containing 1000 feet of
line with a belt attached to the
end, that can be placed about
the body of any person who is sent
out among the breakers to assist
in rescuing any bather in danger.
Within the life lines thus de
scribed the bathers will be sup
posed to go in, and always be
within easy access of good swim
mers. If the swimmer is unable
to return he will be pulled in by
1 those on shore. Astoria Talk.
CHURCH AND SATE
The Old Question Likely to Be
Received in England,
IBS CLERGY AKI ALARM KD
Clergymen Who Havs Beta OcnrlcUd of
InftiBOoi Crimes Still Ssrriag
la the Pnlpltt-
London, Aug. 14. The Church
of England clergy are much alarmed
by the evident anxiety of the radi
cat faction of liberals to make dis
establishment an issue in future
elections. The government and
clergy are surprised at the strength
of the optiosition in the closing
hours ot parliament to the clergy
discipline bill, and this opposition
is now reflected and reinforced in
the non-conformist and liberal
gatherings throughout the country.
This measure was intended to
make it easy for bishops to get rid
of a minister who has been guilty
of a degrading crime.
At present a clergyman con
vie: ted of an offense that may ut
terly destroy his usefulness, and
eerving in prison under sentence.
can still remain rector of a parish
and instances of the kind have
been witnessed. While the
church and government have de
sired to put an end to this scan
dal, the radicals have refused to
agree to the measure, ' preferring
apparently that the church should
sutler dishonor in order to make
the public disgusted with the
spectacle and anxious for dises
tablishment. At present there
are several disgraced clergymen
who have served time in the tread
mill, in charge of English pulpits,
and they cannot be got rid of
under the existing law. The non
conformist bodies also oppose the
free education act for a similar
teuson; they believe it gives too
iuucli authority to the clergy and
their schools, and that it would
tend to strengthen the hold of the
church upon the people. Mean
time the .clergy are not inactive
and preparations are being made
to carry on an aggressive cam
paign in behalf of the church at
the next general election, before
which it is believed that parlia
ment will have an opportunity to
pass the disciplinhbill.
A NOTED KMBKZ.LEk.
He Is to Be Released Frosn Prison
bnt Will Be Rearrested.
Peoria, 111., Aug. 14. J. Finley
Hake, Peoria's noted forger, was
released from Johet penitentiary
to-day, but the Merchant's Nation
al bank, of this city, has caused
warrants to be issued for his re
arrest. The Hake case Las be
come one of world-wide renown,
from the fact that it was through
it that extradition treaties between
the United States and Canada
were established. When Hake
embezzled $250,000 from the Mer
chants' National bank he escaped
to Montreal, where every effort
was made to keep him. The pro
ceedings in the Canadian courts
from the justice of the peace to
the high court of the queen's
bench, and it was finally ordered
that Hake should be returned to
the United States on a charge of
forgery. There are yet nineteen
other indictments hanging over
him.
Were he charged with any othei
offense than forgery the prisoner
would have to be returned to Can
ada, from whence he came, and
there is some doubt at the present
time whether this will not be the
case anyway. If extradition
papers signed by the Canadian
government covers more than one
case of forgery, then there will be
no doubt whatever as to the juris
diction of the United States over
the defendant, there will be a
hard legal fight before the status
ot the case is established.
Denmark Will Be at the Fair.
Copenhagen, Aug. 14. Fred
Peck, of the Chicago world's fair
commission, bas returned to Copen
hagen. Peck had an interview
with King Oscar at Gothenburg.
Three hundred exhibitors at the
Gothenburg exhibition have re
solved to send exhibits to the Chi
cago fair. The king of Denmark
gave a luncheon to the Chicago
fair commissioners vesterday. ine
crown prince and all members of
the cabinet were present. The
king, in toasting the world's fair
and delegates, said Demark would
be largely represented at the fair.
Balmaoeda's Arrogance ef Power,
Washington, Aug. 14. The
Chilian congressional envoys at
Washington have received advices
from Chili which they say confirms
their statements heretofore made
that President Balmaceda had
removed all the judges of the
country and had appointed other
persons to their places. The en
voys say this action of Balmaceda
is in direct defiance to the consti
tution of Chili, which provides
that these judges shall be appoint
ed for life, and shall be removed
only after being found guilty of
misdemeanor.
Tne Church Is Now Angry. .
London, Aut. 14. A Dublin
letter says that the prelates pro
pose to take some action in iew of
the repeated attacks by Timothy
Harrington,member of parliament,
on the church of Ireland. Mr.
Harrington bas of lata been very
bitter in kis language, and baa
:eflected on the motives as well as
the conduct of the Irish clergy in
opposing Parnell, He has also
denounced the federation as a
fraud, without solid organisation,
and practically maintained and
managed by the clergy. All these
and other similar assaults have at
length provoked the Irish hier
archy beyond endurance, and
Harrington will undoubted be call
ed to account, both as a punish
ment for bis own rashness, ana as
a warning to others.

vices he succeeded in enlisting
were the Bailey sisters. They
knew their parents would object,
so a scheme was fixed by which
the girls pretended to be taking
music lessons from Mr. Williams.
The family home is in the extreme
eouth end of the city, and the
girls easily deceived their parents
by pretending to visit mends up
town, The company was organ
ized and a tour arranged of small
near-by Illinois t wns. The par
ents thought their daughters were
with some acquaintance in tne city
until they received a letter an
nouncing that Miss Alice had mar-
illiams, the manager oi tne en
terprise, and Julia had married
Harry B. Morgan, the tenor of tte
troupe. The father started "after
them, and to-night it is said that
the girls will leave their husbands
and return borne with him. The
weddings were duly and religiously
solemnized by a minister in Flora,
111. Williams is said to have
brought good credentials with him
but nobody seems to know where
he comes from, except indefinitely
from the East. Morgan seems to
be unknown. Julia is 21 yeais
old, and Alice is 19.
Doe Not Believe la It,
San Francisco, August 14.
Lieutenant Farley, signal officer,
does not believe that the govern
ment rain-making party in Texas
has yet demonstrated its ability to
cause rain artificially in any in
stance. A series of barometic
troughs have been forming on this
coast and have been moving east
ward ever since Julv 15, fringed
with rain on both sides. On the
dates of the experiments indi
cated by the ram-makers, rain
would have fallen in Texas with
out fail if there had been no rain
making machines in existence.
He is carefully watching the
weather maps and forecast and
reported progress of the experi
ment. When rain fell in Texas it
also fell in showers over a wide
area, coverf ng thousands of square
miles.
Freak ef an Oakland Girl.
Oakland, Cal., Aug. 14. A
young woman walked into a newt
paper office to-day and left a notice
to the effect that Miss Minnie
Frates, of North Oakland, would
be married to James Fair, son of
Senator Fair, at St. Ignatius'
church in San Francisco, at 8
o'clock on the evening of August
15th. Inquiry was made and the
girl found. She is acting as a nurse
girl. She denied the story, aid
finally said it was her cousin wbe
was to marry Fair. She is regard
ed as a victim of delusions. Sev
eral years ago she filled the news
papers and the public admiaistra
tor with stories about a mythical
estate which that official worked
to recover for her till he found it
had no existence except in her
mind.
A Young King Badly
London, Aug. 14. A Vienna
dispatch says that amid all the
gaiety of his reception in Austria,
the young King Alexander, ef 8er
via, did not fotget the czar's
daughter, Xenia, to whom he sent
repeated telegrams, in care of the
czarina, telling of his progress.
The boy king seems to be deeply
smitten with the young imperial
beauty, and none of the array of
young Austrian child princesses
nave been able to efface Xenia
from his mind. There appears to
be a rivalry between the Russian
and Austrian courts as to who
shall capture the youth, and with
him royal influence in Servia. Bo
far the Russians are ahead.
