tity of ammonia in the dough is effcc-
tive in producing bread that will be
lighter, sweeter, and more wholesome
than that risen by any other lenvening
agent. When it is acted upon by the
heat of baking the leavening gas that
raises the dough is liberated. In this
act it uses itself up, as it were; the
ammonia is entirely diffused, leaving
no traces or residum whatever. The
light puffy tlaky appearance, 50 desirable
in biscuits, etc, and so sought after by
professional cooks, is said to &c i'm.
parted to them only by the use of this
agent.
The bakers and baking powder man
ufactures producing the finest goods
have been quick to avail themselves OF
this useful discovery, and the hand
some and best bread and cakes are now
largely risen by the aid of ammonia
combined of course with other lcaven
ing material.
Ammonia is one of the best known
products of the laboratory. If, al
seems to be justly claimed for it, tn
application of its properties to the pur
poses of cooking results in giving u
lighter and more wholesome bread
biscuit, and cake, it will prove a bool
to dyspeptic humanity, and will speedil..
force itself into general use in the neN
field to which science has assigned it.

EGAN, the wife murderer, was
hanged at Sioux Falls, yesterday.
Nearly two years ago he most foully
and cruelty murdered his wife, with
whom he had lived for nearly quarter
of a century. From evidence produced
at the trial it would appear that they
had frequent quarrels which at length
eliminated on this fatal morning in
her death. He deliberately sent the
children away, and while she was
washing dishes at the table came be
hind her, and after throwing a rope
around her neck and strangling her,
pounded the life out of her with a
club. The body was then thrown
through a trap door into the cellar,
where it was found three days after,
horribly mutilated. The skull was
fractured and the head was covered
with frightful gashes made by the
club. 1t appeared also as if she were
not dead when thrown down, as she
was discovered partly reclining
against the wall of the cellar, which
added to the horribleness of the
crime.

THE USE OF AMMONIA IN BAKING
POWDERS.
Its Importance as Culinary Agent.

Q'rom Scientific Amcrican.)
The recent discoveries in science and
chemistry are fast revOIutionizing our
daily domestic economies. Old meth
DDS are giving way to the light of mod
ern Investigation, ard the habit and
methods of our fathers anu mothers are
stepping down and out, to be succeeded
by the new ideas with marvellous ra-
piditv. In no department of science,
however, have more rapid strides been
made than in its relations to the prep
aration and preservation of human food.
Scientists, having discovered how to
traverse space, furnish heat, and
beat time itself, by the application Of
natural forces, and to do hundred
of other things promotive of the COM
fort and happiness of human kind, are
naturally turning their attention to the
development of other agencies and
powers that shall add to the years dur
ing which man may enjoy the blessing
set before him.
Among the recent discoveries in this
direction, none is more important than
the use to which common ammonia can
be properly put us a leavening agent,
and which indicates that this familiar
salt is hereafter to perform an active
part in the preparation of our daily
food.

cccdingly volatile substance. Place a

Immediately be entirely developed into

thus formed is II simple composition Of

have accomplished its objects. The

too late, that discretion is the better
