The New Minnesota Capitol.

In an interview yesterday Gov. Hubbard made
some revelations concerning the new capitol and
the prospects of its completion Work, which has
been suspended during the winter months will be
resumed on Monday, when Contractor Burris will
begin laying the brickwork. An unexpected diff
Guilty has arsen owing to deficiency in the appro-
priation and the wording of the act passed at the
extra session of the legislature making the non
completion of the building in all respects with the
sum appropriated a misdemeanor. The outstanding
contracts according to the architects estimates
amount to S'245, 900. while the sum available is
only 81 81, 900, showing deficiency of $4,000.
100000 requires that this sum with the former
appropriations shall finish and furnish the building
The governors opinion is that fully $25, 900 will
be required for the complete furnishing of the
whole building, which makes total deficiency Of
$4,000. It is impossible to expend the available
funds making them go far possible, as the act
referred to prohibits such action, by requiring the
entire completion of the building with the amounts
heretofore appropriated. The existing contracts
will be carried out, and by the close of this
the building will probably be under roof, but 10
part of it will be in condition for occupancy.
1t is too late to modify the plans contracts in any
for material for the mali. superstructure have
nearly all been made, with SO much material On the
ground that changes that would lessen the cost can
not well ue made. Under the law it is impossible
for Gov Hubbard! to complete the building until
further appropriations ere made at the next session
of the legislature. There seems to be doubt but
that the State officers will have to occupy their
present quarters in the market building for long
unexpectedly until the fail of 1888.

Death of a Slamese Court ELEPHANT.

The Siamese nation has been plunged in
70 mourning by the death of Ellis Sublime
Grandeur the Court and body Elephant of
the King" Says the Indian Herald: eve
regret to learn that the animal departed this
life in highly sensational manner, fraught
with irreparable disaster to the staff of his
household. One morning, after a hearty
breakfast, he went mad quite Unexpectedly.
and trampled five of his attendants to
death. To shoot him would have been sac
rilege. An attempt to tranquillize his per-
turbed spirit by encircling him with huge
ring of holy bamboo, especially blessed by
the High Priest of his own particular tenn
pie, proved worse than Intellectual, for he
broke through the ring aud all but termin-
ated the High Priests career upon the
spot. He was then with great difficulty
driven into q close court of the pa ace,
where, after several furious endeavors to
battle down the walls with his tusks, he
suddenly toppled over on his side and ut
tered last cry Of rage. Naturally enough,
this heavy calamity was attributed to GRIM
inal carelessness on the part of one or other
of the attendants intrusted with tho sacrea
elephants feeaing. The king thereupon
Intercepted the members of His Sublime
Grandeur's household in person with re-
spect to their treatment Of the illllstrious
deceased, and failing to elicit any in livid-
ual confession of delinquency, decree
that one and all be punished. Having thus
vindicated propriety, His Majesty assum ed
the garb of woe, and is understood to be
still inconsolable for his loss."

The Iodine Trick.

tits astonishing to what peculiar metho ds
people will sometimes re sort to endeavor to
advance their own and injure others inter-
ests. One of the latest and most unfair ex-
pedients is that of certain manufacturers Of
baking powders, who are endeavoring to
prejudice consumers against all other prep
aratlons than their own, by exhibiting from
house to house test purporting to show
the quality Of various powders, The facts
are, this So called test, which We are told
simply consists in adding little iodine to
sample, can in no way reveal the true value
OF baking powder, and is only calculated to
deceive and prejudice the minds of the ig-
norant and unwary, Some powders are
injurious, but this can only appear by
analysis. The true value of baking pow
der consists in the amount Of leavening gas
which is given off when heat and moisture
are added to the -four, and it is only the
chemist, with the aid of chemical applis-
ances, who can determine the volume of gas
which any powder can envolve. We will
venture to say that there is not an article
prepared for food that might not be manip-
ulated by chemical tests to prove that some
thing was wrong aboutit, and when person
goes into kitchen, or before b ouse-
keeper, who is not to be presumed to IN
derstand chemical relations. and performs
an experiment of even the simplest charac-
ter, it is not difficult to impress one that
something awful is the matter. AS
to baking powders, we could suggest
dozen tests that would be as ridiculous in
giving fair idea of their relative merits to
an unrestricted mind as the one here men
toned. The truth is, that the best test to
make of baking powder is to try it in
making bread, and see which makes the
most and best. To this practical test all of
the established brands of powder have been
put, and housekeepers have very generally
made up their minds which they prefer, and
the iodine testers will find ultimately that
households that have for years used favor
ito brand will not BIZ apt to make change
on the test proposed.-Americon Grocer.
