It renders the food more healthful and palat able and js most economical in practical use. Housekeepers are sometimes importuned to buy alum powders because they are "cheap." Yet some of the cheapest made powders are sold to consumers at the highest price. Housekeepers should stop and think. . Is it not better to buy the Royal and take no chances the powder whose goodness and honesty are never . questioned ? Is it economy to spoil your digestion by an alum-phosphate or other adultered powder to save a few pennies ? ROYAL, BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK FOUR-CAR MAIL TRAINS ORDERED A four-oar mall train carrying uo pafwenKerB, except porhapi a Pullman car, and deaiKiiud to clip off many houri lu oroHHiuft tlis oontineut from Chicago to Portland, will tie started hood by the Harrttrian yai.ern over the Union PaolUo.

CHARGE OF MURDER An indictment charging Paul Mnsa. who was arrested at the Stanley-Smith lumber carnp near this citv, with the murder of Julius Kubn, the east side saloon Tan, who was shot and killed in his saloon on William avenue on the night of February 17, was filed in the cricuit court by District Attorney Manning last week. The instrument charges murder in the first degree. Doth the police authorities and the district attorney admit that they have little confidence In their ability to convict the young Uermau with the evidence theyZhave, but lu view of what they have they propose to make him go before the court anyhow. Ibe attorneys for the accused prisoner feel confident that they wlil clear their man without the necessity of going Into any extensive defense. The still maintain that they will produce evi dence that will reveal startling facts a-i to the Identity of the guilty par ties. It was at first planned by the police to have Mnsa arraniged in the lower court, but because of the small amount of eivdenoe tbey possessed against him, it was finally decided that it would be better to file a direct indict ment in the higher tribunal to avoid exposing their testimony to the de fense before the final trial. "1 must admit.' said Captain of Detectives tirulu. "that our elvdence against Musa is rather weak and un satisfactory. . If he is guilty we want to hang him. ' If he is innocent we want to turn bim loose. 1 don't be lieve the evidence we have is enough to convict him beyond the shadow of a doubt," , , rheldutectires have endeavored to trace Mnsa's movements from the time lie is alleged to have purchased the re volver a id cartrlgna at the Northwest gun store, hut they have been unable to do so. I he ouly evidence upon which the olllcers are going into court consists of the atlidavit of Joe Miluer, the ludentlllcation or Musa by the pro- pr etor or the gun store, the fact that Musa knew Kuhn had a large sum of money in the saloon and that he quit ins joii suddenly after learning ttjl lattei fact. The prisoner's attorneys say that will prove positively that Musa was not in the vioinity of the saloon at the time the murder was committed.

The rnnt buds that are tstill alive have made themselves so manifest now that an exact estimate can lie made of the damage resulting from the recent oold weather. It Is gratifying to know that there Is not a total loss of the fruit crop, and tho estimates made by the fruit men in the last few days aie that theie Is something left of every variety 1 1 fruit grown on tb river, except ti,o apprioot crop, which is a total loss, and that the loss is less comparatively on the lower river than in Lewlstou and Clarkson. being greater here because of the larger pro portion or tender early varieties giowu. E. A. White, ot the firm of White Bros. & Crum, has just made a oareful comparison of the results on the river and in Clarkitou and Lewiston and gives out th extent ot damage as fol lows to a Lewiston Teller reporter: Ion per cent of the peaobes, 20 per cent of thefpears and 25 per cent of the cherries aie still alive. All the apricots as far as known . aie killed more is no loss at all on the prunes and plums. There will be an Ztixtia heavy crop of these because ot th light crop last year, which gave the trees extra vigor. Last Oregon. Fruit Not Hurt Much. Investigations this week show thst pears are not much hurt by the cold snap, but peaches and early cherries nre badly killed. The half dormaut buds may yet make a partial crop, but the prospect is that it will be short this year. Fruit men are now begiu uiug to think that the oold snap was not much damage after all. It is thought that it killed many of the San Jose scale and while It may have kill. ed many fruit buds there are plenty left on most ot the treei. Forest (J rove Times. , drip Quickly Knocked Out.
