Immense Crowd at Skating Rink. The rapidity with which the A s sociated Press handled the news o f the attempted assassination of Francis J. lleuey will stand as a record for a long time to come. Heney was shot at 4:22 and in just two minutes after the shot was fired the Associated Press wires were flashing the news over the country. The first flash was re ceived in the Portland office at 4:25 and just IS minutes after the brief story was sent over the wire, the news, in the form of an extra, was on the streets. When the news o f Pope Leo’s death was flashed from Rome and reached Sail Francisco just .50 minutes after, it was thought a great achievement, but the swift Something Doing ness with which the attempted There will be something doing killing of Ileney was handled sets every minute at the big skating this record aside.

Housekeepers should bear in mind that when asked by canvas sers or grocers to purchase a phos phate baking powder, that, if they value their health they will refuse such powder. Phosphate baking powder is made from burning bones, gathered a t slaughter houses, whether from diseased ani mals or not. It is then mixed with a solution of oil of vitrol. Such baking powder usually contains more or less alum and sells for 25 cents per pound. Be on the safe side and protect your health by demanding the Pure Cream of Tartar kind, which is made from the purest of grapes.
