The constantly growing demand for Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, the standard cream tartar powder for forty years, is due to two causes. FIRST: The extreme care exercised by the manu facturers to make it perfectly pure, uniform in quality, and of highest raising power. SECOND: The recent investigations exposing the fact that certain other brands of baking powder contain ammonia and still others that were found to contain alum. These unscrupulous manufacturers are being found out, and the consumers are giving them a wide birth. Nothing is left to chance in the manufacture of Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. Chemists are employed to test every ingredient as to purity and strength. Hence; its marvelous purity and uniformity. Each can is like every other. It never dissapoints. BEST is ALWAYS the CHEAPEST. 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 questioned.

ECKOI'KAN NATIONS WATCH, They Want a Haid la tba Mudili, Pro- . Tiding They Oaa Qala Vantage Thereby. m&mBAi, AM. W.--The situa tion at rekin is grave. I he mm isters of England, Franco and (terinany, in behalf of others, have daity interviews witn lrung L,i Vamen. Hunan is the center of trouble. The bulk of the army is composed of Hunan men, and they uety tne authority ot tne rs kin government. The ministers insist that secret societies shall be suppressed, that Hunan shall be opened to commerce, that the mandarins who were implicated in the riots shall be degraded, and full amends given for outrages, with assurance for the Jiiture, or the powers will take immediate action. The government recognizes that the old tactics of playing the pow ers against each other is futile and is aghast at their unanimity. The emperor is anxisuj to avoid war. He drsads attempting to coerce the provinces, doubting the loyalty of high officials. The Chinese openly favor a pure Chinaman for emperor, and advo cate expell ng the Tartar dynasty. The attitude of many of the vice roys is suspicious. Li Hung Chang is sitting still, keeping away from the scene of the trouble. The cost of twenty foreign war ships in the Yaitg-tze-Kiang is heavy, but if they are moved out rages will be repeated. An English missionary named t!ay was nearly murdered by sol lit rs at Kiran. Unless active steps are taken all the missions will cease operations. The central government's usual tac tics are to temtorize, and to re fer matters to local officials, but the ministers decline to accept a change of venue from l'ekin. They have gone too far for retreat without a total loss of prestige. Ths government is utterly par alyzed, and is afraid to display its rottenness by attempting any action. The hnusn, iviissian anu French fleets are awaiting orders within easy distance. China is in a dilemma with re gard to the movements against ? 1 ic ....u:-... Ti. tier reoeiiious niiojeutn. anc im perial dynasty's refusal would render foreign intervention inev itable. It is believed, however, that at the first sign of force the present obstinacy of the govern ment would give way.

The American Agriculturist, in its an aumI reviewof the harvest, to be published in its September issue, estimates that the farm profits this year will bo $1,000,000,000 more than during the recent years of depression. On the basis of present prospects the corn crop of 1891 is estimated to he 2,000,000, 000 bushels; wheat, 500,000,000 bushels ; oats, 622,000,000 bUbhels. In 1890 the wheat crop was 1,500,- 000,000 and oats 24,000,000 bush els. The total yield of wheat,corn and oats on the basis of this esti mate will be 28.8 per cent, greater than last year, and 14.7 per cent. above the average of the preceding eleven years. On this basis the value of the corn crop will be to farmers, $1,000,000,000; wheat, $500,000,000 and oats, $2j0,000,000. This is $450,000,000 more than the value of these crops in 1890, and $625,000,000 more than the value of the average of these crops from 1880 to 1890 inclusive. Cotton and rice will coinuicnd better prices than last season. Cattle are worth one-third more than 18 months ago. with other live stock in proportion. Tobacco is advancing Heavily. Hops are firm at good prices. Winter fruit will command large values, and all vegetables are yielding lairly, with every indication ot a reuiu- neiative market. The export outlook was never better. Immensely increased sums will be sent to the United States for our produce. Of course, ulterior influences may interfere with these brilliant predictions, but it is almost certain that farmers will receive better profits on their crops than ever belore. How to PIU a Hotel. Anything, they say, is fair in love, wan or politices. To this should now be added in hotel keeping especially Mimmer ho tels. One of those hotel-keepers whose hostelry is in Southern New Jersey found the season wan ing, his house only half full and expenses runnin up to the limit. Unless he could till up the last weeks of August be saw bankrup cty staring him in the nose, and no banknicty law yet passed by Congress. Something must be done to avert the calamity. A clever young journalist, with chalked bat, was abiding with him. He was anxious to earn his b.'ead and listened to bis host's appeal, and presently there ap peared in leading metropolitan newsbapers a letter harping upon the re Jiarkable fact that the young men guests actually o.ttruinbrreil the ladies two to one ! Such a condition of affairs had never been known to exist in the mem ory of the oldest natron of summer resorts. Every mamma with mar iageable daughters, every spinster ho stilled hoped lightning would i rike her way ; every widow, grass o: otherwise, old or otherwise, im mediately telegraphed for rooms, engaging them for the balance of the seasoD, and within eight and forty hours the lonely summer resort was filled to ovet flowing and the threatened bankrupcty averted The bouse is still full all the eligibies waiting for the return of the army of young meu who are exjiected daily. , Tlornets. Roseburg Plaindepler: On last Thursday night while the south bound overland train was waiting near Lake Labish for another engine, a well-knowu engineer, very much annoyed at the delay, was in bad humor, and in stopping around disturbed a co'ony of horn ets. The war sentinel deftly crawled up his trousers and made vigorous attack where it was difficult to reach him, causing the gentleman to execute an entirely new dance, .very much to the amusemens of the bystanders. The gentleman will be more care ful in the future about slopping at stations not down on his card. Cerea Admlre'a TJs, .San Francisco, Aug. 19. As sistant Engineer T. W.

Queeu Vic toria will go to Balmoral after the French entertainment. There is said to be some doubt whether she will be accompanied as usual by the Battenburgs. Prince Henry and Princess Beatrice are perfectly willing to go, but the queen has of late been very much annoyed by the latest Battenburg baby, aged 2 years and 2 months. This baby is named Prince I.eojold, after the queen's departed son, and like LeotKild he is already showing an alarming propensity to tits. The queen thinks the infant should re main in J-.nuland to be doctored, and that his father and mother should slay too. Battenburg wants so go to Scotland and do some grouse shooting ; as for Beatrice, she also wants to go with her mother, who has been her life long companion. The truth is said to be that the queen is lired of the Battenburg babies, of whom there are three born in about as many years, and wants a rest. WIFE ABDUCTING. For Which He Is Arrested and Under Bonds. Hackkxsack. N. J.. Aug. 19. Justice Cummings, of this place, has issued a warrant for the arrest of David 11.

Tl ie steamer Ell wood has ceased to run on the Salem route, cause, water too low. The Three Sisters is now the only Doat on me route. Otto Novotnav, the 8-vear-old son of John Novotnav, of Water and Market streets, met bis death at J o'clock last eveuing by falling off a log on the north side of Smith s mill. Mr. Myers, fish commissioner. who has been over on the Sound making observations, says that the Sound will have a much larger salmon pack this year than last, and as for tbe Columbia pack he says it will be 55,000 cases larger than last year instead of 75,000 cases less. As Mr. Myers in his capacity as fish commissioner has every opportunity to investigate the salmon industry, lie can come pretty near making a correct guess. PENNSYLVANIA FOR BLAINE, The ftepnbllcaa Convention Enthu siastic In His Support, If arkisbi eii, Pa.,,Aug. 19. The republican state convention met to-day. The platform which baa been' adopted heartily endorses -the administration, President Harrison and Postmaster-General Wanamaker, and approves of the course of tbe republicans in the last congress, especially to the passage of the Mck inley bill. In regard to Blaine the resolutions declare: "In view of his mag nificent achievements in diplo macy and statecraft, we earnestly hope the republican national con vention of 1892 may place in unan imous nomination for the presi dency, which nomination we feel assured will be followed by a tri umphant election, James U. Blaine, of Pennsylvania and Maine." Bimetallism was favored, and the action of the last congress in providing for the purchase and coinage of all the silver produced from American mines was indorsed and such tariff duties recommend ed as will protect the country and its currency from the debasement which will surely follow if the nation is made the dumping ground for all the silver the world produces. Devotion to the welfare of the Union soldiers was reaffirmed and unscrupulous partisanship was strongly denounced. Governor Pattison was compli mented for vetoing the appoint ment bill passed by the republican legislature, and in negativing other legislative measures, particularly the compulsory education bill. Such amendment to law was favored as will absolutely prevent the use of all public funds for the persoual benefit of public offi cials. BLOODY PISTOL. It la Made the Tool for a Wretches I'erOdv. New Orleans, Aug. 19. While dancing at a ball at Sandy Creek, in Jackson parish, Miss Ma tilda Addison was shot by William Murray, her partner in a waltz. He tried repeatedly to get her to dance with him, but she excused herself on various grounds. Mur ray became angry and told some young men present that if she treated him like that again he would shoot her. To pacify him, Miss Addison, toward the close of the ball, accepted him as a partner. They were in the middle of the room and had just begun waltzing, when the re port ot a pistol was heard and Miss Addison fell. Murray had fired the pistol without taking it from his pocket, and the latter was set on fire by the discharge.
