Ammonia in Baking Powders.


Among the recent discoveries in science
and chemistry, none is more important than
the uses to which common ammonia can
be properly put as a leavening agent and
which indicate that this familiar salt is
hereafter to perform an active part in the
preparation of our daily food.
The carbonate Of ammonia is an exceed
iDgly volatile substance. Place a small
portion OF it upon a knife and hold over
flame, and it will almost Immediately be
entirely developed into gas and pass off into
the air The gas thus formed is simple COM
position Of nitrogen and hydrogen. No resi-
due is left from the ammonia. This gives tits
superiority as leavening power over soda
and cream oftartar used alone, and has in
duced its use as a supplement to these ar
ticles. A small quantity of ammonia in
the dough is effective of producing bread
that will be lighter, sweeter and more
wholesome than that risen by any other
leavening 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 itselfup, as it were; the ammo
MIA is entirely ditfused, leaving no trace or
residuum whatever. The light fluffy, tlaky
appearance, so desirable in biscuits, ETC.,
aud so sought after by professional cooks, is
:sid TO be impaired TO them only by the
use of this agent.
The bakers and baking powder manu-
facturers producing the finest goods have
been quick to avail themselves OF this use
III discovery, and the handsomest and best
bread and cake are now largely risen by the
aid Of ammonia, combined, Of course, with
other leavening material.
Ammonia is one Of the best known pro-
ducts of the laboratory. II, as seems to be
Justly claimed for it, the application of its
properties to the purposes of cooking results
in giving US lighter and more wholesome
bread, biscuit and cake, it will prove boon
10 dyspeptic humanity, and will speedily
force itself into general use in the new fed
to which science has asSignedit,

PITIABLE CONDITION.

Not until 9 or 10 o'clock this morning
was the outrage discovered At that hour
Jacob Keller passed and heard groans he
secured Mr.. Wharton, another neighbor,
and the pair entered the house A pitisble
light met their eyes. In the midst Of the
Sreck and ruin there was the old man hang.
iug by the cords Of the bed, his burned and
ivid body EXPOSED, his head bleeding, and
himself nearly perishing with cold They
released and placed him on the bed, heard
bis story, and procured physician to dress
his wounds. His condition is considered
dangerous, and reports from there vary as
to the extent of his hurts.
Last night a REGISTER reporter had a
conversation with two farmers who had Just
come from the scene They told the story
as given and showed pieces of the rope with
which he was tied. The affair became gen.
eral street talk, last night, and the greatest
indignation prevailed wherever it was
heard. If the scoundrels could be caught,
their Csrcasses would surely ornament the
nearest trees and all agreed that such treat
ment would be none too good for them.
While it is believed the gang is identical
with that which visited the Workanauer
house, there is, Of course, nothing definite
known and absolutely no clue.
