Thorowas somo discussion yesterday morning about that 300 yard wot test race, and tho manner that Capitals got connection at hydrant, but as tho judges awarded tho first prize to the Capitals that soltles it. Time was worth 1.039 a pecond yes torday. "We never realized more forcibly the truth of tho saying "Time is money" than when F. E.

The practical good resulting is best noted in the increased efficiency and skill of tho different com panies. By yesterday's express 31. C. Hatchings, of this city, received letters patent from tho Canadian government for his im proved method of testing sealed cans, re cently described at length in these col umns. This patent covers all the terri tory on this continent over which the English flag floats, and is for a term of 15 years. And now that it is all over a word of praise is duo to tho men who had charge of the tournament in tho city. It is easy to find fault and criticise and it is a thankless job at best to run anything of the kind, for somebody's corns are suro to bo stepped on. The managers did tho host they could according to their ability and the funds at their disposal. A New York youth who had prob ably been stuffing himself with cherries and swill milk died last Thursday, and straightway comes a sensational state ment that he died from eatWg canned salmon. Then the yarn goes aound that it was "Columbia river salmon," and gives tho name of the grocer from whom the salmon was bought. The account winds up with tho assertion that tho as tute doctor, who was called in, "be lieves" that tho poison was "from the do composition of the fish." Just se: last vcar it was tho solder that was poisonous. Scientific investigation knocked tho col oring of truth out of that, and now it is tho fish itself that is poisonous. The whole business needs confirmation, and every former report of the kind, when simmered down, was found to be na the baseless fabric of a vision.

Yesterday dawned cool and cloudy, and though the'great 2ow York contest was called for eight and advertised at nine o'clock it was ten before tho teams got ready for I he blai t. In this race the con testants were to run 200 yards to hydrant, lay 350 feet of hose, disconnect seventh oflast section, tako out third section from hydrant, replace with seventh sec tion; connect section removed to sixth section, attach pipe and throw water. This is something new in Pacific coast fire tournaments and attracted universal attention. The first prize was $200, sec ond prize $75. When the time was taken on Rescue's, one watch said 1:21. another 1.21K. a third 1:21 2-5. making the time 1:21 7-15. The result was received with cheers, for that is considered good time, in a con test; m practicing the boys had made it in 1:1-1. Capitals of Salem came next, and made a magnificent run, and when time was called on water, one watch in dicated 1:21, ,n sf-cocd 1:21 3-5. a third 1:21 1-5, making the time 151 4-5, beating IteFcaes just one-fifth of a second. Then began tumultuous cheering by the Cap itals and their friends, who had bet heavy on them, and were overjoyed at the resull. Albanys ran next, but scored no time, and were followed by Salem No. 3, made n run in 1:31 ", thus ending the contest. Tho last on the list was a sweep stakes foot raco for $50, run 150 yards, free to all members of tho associa tion; the following entered: Geo. S. Wright, Dick Pattou, Ferg Reed, W. Mctiee, and A. F. Reed, of Salem, Ed. Ferguson, Frank Itfulkey and A. Hough ton, of Astoria, F. Marshall of Albany, E. Cofliu of Eugene. The race was won by Dick Patlon of Capitals of Salem in 14 4-5 seconds. Tho tournament ended at noon, and after a hearty round of cheers and congratulations, tho prizes were paid, and at two o'clock the Tele phone started for Portland with tho re turning delegations, and so ended the fourth annual meeting, and the largest and most successful one of the kind ever held in tho state. Jia klkm: he its TimEE cu:r .-iomk. Alongside tho roadway near tho Jerome Park raco track a three card monto swindler set up his tripod. His chatter and his manipulation of the cards were uncommonly brisk, for there was mo mentary danger of a policeman coming to stop him. Passengers were being emptied from a train, and they surround ed the operator. But for a time his only betting was with his confederate, who, of course, won right along, James W. Keene, the Wall-streeter. arrived with several friends, and looked on at the game. JLue gamblers pal resorted to tho familiar trick of slyly bending a cor ner of the card by that means making it appear that tho winning ono could bo picked out to a certainty. Keeno sur prised the spectators by saying: "I'll tako you for $50 that I can pick out tho jack." Tho sum was above the gambler s capital, but ho got $10 out of his pockets, and the stokes were put into the hands of an honest bystander. "Now, "my fine, fellow," said Keene, "you think you've got a sure thing on me, but vou haven't. The chances are exactly even. I shan't choose the bent card, for, of course that isn't tho jack. You've smoothed tho jack in handling them, and bent one of the others. So tho jack must bo one of the smooth cards; and in taking this one," and here ho placed his hand on a card, "my chances are equal against you. See? Ah! Yes, I've won." He pocketed the stakes, and was cheered b' the instructed crowd. Vcw l er: JJispaich. During the second day's proceedings of the Oregon Medical society, in Port land, Dr. J. A. Fulton, of this city, read an interesting paper, entitled " Non-interference in regard to probing gun-shot wounds." The essayist took tho ground of opposition to probing after n wound wan inflicted, for the reasons that it irri tated tho wound, broke open tho blood- clot, caused tho air to enter the wound, renewed hemorrhage, and weakened and shocked the patient's system. A bullet, ho said, could bo cxtraoted six weeks after it lodged in the body with much more safety than in six hours. The es sayist was satisfied that in a great many cases a nance jeic lougeu in me system did no particular harm by remaining there. Ho thought that probing was practiced more to satisfy tho curiosity of the physician than to aid the patient, and cited several cases that came under his own observation where abstaining from the usa of the nroba had been ben eficial. This paper produced an animat ed discussion, several siding m with Dr. Fulton. Drs. Saylor, Fraser. Owens. Adair, Panton, AVilson and others par ticipated in the debate. Store Tor Rent.

Toniler made Action of the Xeir York State Hoard of Health. Under the direction of tho Xew York Stato Board of Health, eighty-four different kinds of baking powders embracing all the brands that could be found for sale in the State, were sub -milled to examination and analysis by Prof. C. F. CnAN'DLcn, n member of tho Stato Board, and President of the New York City Board of Health, assisted by Prof. Edwabd G. Lovn,tho well-known lato United States Government chemist. Tho official report shows that a large number of the powders examined were fod'anto contain alum or lime, many of them to such an extent as to render them seriously objectionable for use in the preparation of human food. Alum was found in twenty-nine sam ples. This drug is employed in baking powders to cheapen their cost. The presence of lime is attributed to the impure cream of tartar of commerce used in their manufacture. Such cream of tartar was also analyzed and found to contain lime and other impurities, in some samples to the extent of ninety three per cent of their entire weight. All t ho baking powders of the market, with the single exception.of the "Royal" (not including the alum and phosphate powders, which were long since discarded as unsafe or inefficient by prudent housekeepers) are made from the impure cream of tartar of commerce, and con sequently contain lime to a correspond ing extent. Tho only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to be entirely free from lime, and absolutely pure, is the "Royal." This perfect purity results from tho exclusive use of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared by patent process of the N. Y. Tartar Co., which totally removes the tartrate of lime and othes impurities. The cost of this chem ically pure cream ot tartar is mncn greater than any other, and on account of this greater cost it is used in no bak ing powder but the "Royal.' Prof. Lovb, who made the analyses of baking powders for tho New York Stato Board of Health, os well as for the Gov ernment, says of the parity and whole someness of "Royal": "I have tested a package of Ro3'aI Baking Powder' which I purchased in tho open market, and find it composed of pure and wholcsomo ingredients. It is a cream of tartar powder of a high degree of merit, and does not contain cither alum or phosphates or any injurious substances. E. G. Love, Ph. D." TAIt ASI) FEATHERS. llou a Urnte tias Punl&hrd Tor StriMnhfr lTIfc. Lafatltte, Ind., June 3. I was seated in tho corridor of a hotel this evening when a gentleman read aloud to a group of friends a telegraphic account of tho tarring and feathering of Roy S. Hatha way, tho city editor of tho Toledo un- duy Dispatch. I observed that they all laughed and seemed to consider tho thing exquisitely funny. The fact is. tarring and feathering, so far as public sympa thy goes, is placed in a good deal tho same category as haying a tooth pulled, or falling down on a banana skin. I used to laugh at it myself, but I altered my opinion two years ago last fall. This change of heart did not come about through my being tarred and leathered myself, but through an enisodo of which I was j spectator. It was in 1882 and took place at a littlo Colorado mining camp called Carbonville. TAC AND FEATHEES IX COrOEADO. Carbonvillo lies just over tho conti nental divide on tho Pacific side, in Lake county, about twelve miles from Lead- yillo as the crow flies. It wa3 a mush room city, and at that timo was in the hectic heyday of its prosperity. Its bus iness portion was made up largely of saloons and faro banks, and the fact that its population was mamlv gentle men exiled from Leadville for various offenses will give an idea of its moral satus. Ono of tho very few "respectable" women in tho camp was a Mrs Jako uory, who ran a little lunch room and restaurant. Sho was sweet-faced and sweet-tempered, and had an abiding iunu ot patience, mat enabled her to put up with tho vagaries of one of the worst hurbands in tho world. We in the camp thought that Jake Cory was absolutely the worst on tho face of the earth. He was a drunken, foul-mouthed, brute who divided his time between the gambling houses and worse re sorts. At these places he spent every aonar nis wne earnea, ana an ne could borrow on her good name. He once went so far as to pawn her furniture down to tho cookmc stove, over which she supported him. I mention these tilings to show that the sequel was not altogether unprovoked. FOE STEIKIXQ X WOMAN. One evening Cory came into tho res taurant drunk and struck his wifo sav agely in the face. He escaped through tne bacKuoorana sue came in scarred and bleeding nnd told the story to some of the boarders. An impromptu indig nation meeting was hold among tho "boys" and it was decided to tar and feather tho fellow and run him out of town. Tho phrase sounded well in tho mouth of the man who suggested it .and everybody agreed that that was the cor rect thing to do. No time was lost. A couple of men ran over to the refining works and got a uig iron duckci. oi pucu, ana oiuers pro cured an old feather tick from a lodging house. Then a committee started out to get Cory. The found him asleep in a saloon and hustled him over to a vacant lot in the rear of some buildings. Ho was half dazed and confused with drink, nnd thought the affair war a joke, until the men began to strip off hl3 clothes. Then he fought like a madman in truth I be lieve he was mad with terror. His shirt and nnderclothes had to be literally torn off of him, and it was a good fifteen min utes work before he stood, shivering and stark naked in the moonlight. APPWINO TnE TAB. I can see him now his bleared eyes di lated and his shock of yellow hair bris tling on his head. His nude body stood out in bold relief against the group that surrounded him, and the chill, pene trating air must have struck the wretch to the bone. At any rate he crouched down and somebody called eut: "Give it to him now!" At the s?me instant the bucket of tar was lifted ind about a gal lon thrown with a swash over his bare shoulders. He sprang erect at the cold touch of the pitch, and whirled around just in timo to receive the rest of it on the head, face and chest. For a moment he stood petrified, the black stuff trickling down hia body and Iega, and uniting with a great puddle of it on the ground. Then he slowly raised his hands to his eyes and tried to brush them clear, but as his fingers had received a good share of the pitch, he only made matters worse, and dropped his arms again. Ho did not seem to realize what had happened, and wagged his head blindly from side to side: As ho stood thus, ono of tho men took the upper edge of tho tick and inverted it over him. I suppose it was as com plete a job of tho sort as was ever under taken: at leasi, nothing was overlooked to make it a success. Corv looked like nothing human, but some strange species of monster blotched all over with fluffy white. His head seemed about tho size and shape of a bushel basket, and his features were obliterated in the general blackness. rr was a colp night. When the work was done he was mve fifteen minutes to get out of camp. He was made to understand with difficulty, but was finally started on the trail and the crowd dispersed. Early next morning some miners, go ing to work, found Cory back of a build ing lying on tho ground and moaning. Tho tar hod by this timo rubbed all over him and partly solidified. As it grew hard it contracted, and every contraction had dragged with it tho thousands of mi croscopic hairs with which tho body is covered. In places it had broken the skin, nnd the men who carried him into a shed found blood on their hands. A fmysician then located there, and now iving at Greely, Col., was called in and attempted to remove tho stuff with ben zine. It was an ntter failure as was everything else tried from grease to am monia. I saw him in tho caurso of the morn ing. The lower portion of his body was covered with a blanket, but his face was a spectacle not easily forgotten. The hard pitch was cracked all over it, like alligator skin, and had caked so solidly around one eye it was impossible to re move it. The other oyo was opened, but dreadfully inflamed and suppurating. Atplacc3over tho surface wero sodden splotches of feathers. Business called mo away from Carbon ville for about two weeks.'and a few days after I returned Cory died. Meantime most of the tar had been removed by successive washes, but his skin was cov ered with minute black specks like tho shaven chin of a "man who has a heavy beard. They wero tho choked-up pores of tho skin, and this was probably tho real cause of tho death. A short time after tho punishment ho had been taken with n raging fever, and then symptoms of a singular blood disorder set in. The fllan over tho chest, neck, cheeks and outsido of the arms roso in hard ridges, totally devoid of feeling. These rapidly sloughed off, leaving open ulcers. I shall not enlarge upon these details, which would only parhap3 interest a medical man, further than to say tho symptoms wero in all save one respect identical with leprosT. This sole difference was the frightful rapidity of their develop ment. Tho distorted remains were hur ried into a coffin nnd hurried into tho ground. THE CAUSE Or DEATH. A wise physician of Denver told me afterward that this closing up of tho pores prevented tho system from throw ing off its impurities, nnd when the poi son that every instant escapes in per spiration is held back or driven inward the blood is vitiated with inconceivable swiftness. Ho took down a book and showed me a case quoted from a French government report of 1762, where the col lege of surgeons, as an experiment, cov ered a boy with gold leaf. In six hours ho was seized with a fever, then a torpor, and then died. The principle, ho said, was identical. A man could no more livo with his pores closed than he could with his mouth and nostrils hermetically sealed, and if any considerable number were stopped up blood disorders of tho most dreadful character wero absolutely certain to cusne. I had seen enough, however, without tho aid .of science or history, to tell me that covering a man with tar was one of the most horrible punishments that cru el ty has ever devised. I have no impulse to laugh when 1 hear of a caso of it. but rather to walk away with a picture float ing before my eyes of a hideously gro tesque iiguro shivering in tho cold night air and a bloated corpse in a rough pine coffin.
