AdvcntiStS' Meeting,

The Second Adventists, as they
call themselves, or Millerites, as
they are called by others, are hold
ing a camp meeting at
the Reno circus grounds. The
meeting will continue uutil Sep
TENDER Sth, or longer if the preach
ers seem to be making any impress
sion on the hardened hearts Of the
Reno sinners. The Adventist be-
lieve in the speedy second advent Ct
Christ and the end of the world.
They owe their origin to William
Miller, a native of Pittsfield, Mass,
who in 1893 began to preach on the
second coming of Christ, and in
few years converted 10000 or So
600 people to his way of thinking.
The time set by Miller for the world
to come to an end was October.
1912. As the play did not take
place az announced on the bills,
the date was changed to 1913, then
to 1917, 1913, 1857 and 1861 re-
spectively. Having been deceived
in their calculations so often, they
wisely concluded not to fix any
specific time for the catastrophe to
lake place, though they believe it
will occur in the near future. As
the Renoites are not prepared to
appear for judgment, and nearly
all of them expect Office at the en-
suing election, only those who
we're defeated for delegates at the
primary election last Saturday
think Of joining the Adventists.

Kowin: Rinenaen.

The controversy over the rifles to
be used at the California-Neyada
match at Carson is daily growing
more heated, says the Post. The
rifemen of each State are. to use
a prize-ring phrase, ''sparring for an
opening" The Nevada men have
six Remington epborn rifles, pur-
chased at an expense of $4O9, and
desire to use them. The Califor-
mans have but two. and therefore.
do not wish to shoot with this rifle.
Consequently. they assert that it is
not military rifle, admissible I'M
der the rules Of the C. r. A.
It looks as if the Californians
were already anticipating their de-
feat. At the same time it seems
odd that two rifle teams cannot
meet and shoot a match without
this unseemly wrangling.

Advice to the Afflicted.

Ed. APPEAL. Yesterday after a
large batch of bread had been
baked at my house it was discov-
cred that some one had upset a
can of coal oil in the -four and the
bread was strongly impregnated
with petroleum. What would you
do; can recover damages from the
grocer? A CONSTANT READER.
I'VE advise you to send the
loaves TO Chairman Barnum of the

ascertain if they cannot be used in
torch light professions and ask
him if the putting in practice of
his Free Trade decisions would not
make bread and kerosene cheap
enough for fre-wood--ED. Ap-

Tribute to Canayan.

Major Dennis in the Times-Re-
view closes a glowing tribute to
Canavan as follows:
Nothing less than inspiration
could guide a pen to trace words
which would lessen their grief in
this the hour Of their dire affliction.
That must be left to the softening
hand Of Time, which can alone ap
ply the healing balm. Old Friend,
farewell. May the sod Of Lone
Mountain rest lightly on your breast
and may God in His infinite mercy,
grant to those you held SO dear,
that consolation which implicit
trust in Him can alone inspire.

A Close Call.

Roger Brunick's little girl, s or 9
years of age, came near being
drowned Wednesday afternoon by
falling in the river above the Lale
dam. She was in company with a
little brother, who, without a mo-
ment's hesitation, plunged into the
water to rescue his sister. Forum
ately the father was working on the
dam near by and succeeded in rescu-
ing both children before any dam
age was done beyond q cold bath
and q pretty big scare.

The BAKING POWDER WAR.

The Royal Baking Powder Company is still making
enemies among those who manufacturing and selling
impure articles for eavenng purposes land their is
egon) and this fact shows that it is continuing its Wig
orous work in the interests of the public.
This Company set out some time ago to expose the
character and far possible to break up the sale of
adulteraed baking powders. Having found from
animation of number OF specimins procured from gro
that they generally of inferior character
and many Of them actually poisonous it brought the
matter before the public denounced the makers by
in the press and to the health authorities.
The affair speedily taken up by physicians,
Boards of HEALTH and Legislatures throughout the
try; chemists employed to make scientific tests Of
the various powders in the market, and the Government
Itself directed analyses be made before it would pur
chase the supplies needed for army, navy and Indian
uses
The result more than justified the charges so boldly
made by the Royal Company Not only the
icrity Of baking powders IN the market found to he
largely aduerated, bat many Of them ascertaned
to contain lime alum and other poisonous ingredients
to such extent as to render them positively unsafe
for use in human food The information spread through
out the country and created profound sensation AS
result many of these injurious mixtures driven
out OF the market and the sale Of all of them seriously
interfeTcd with
No occurrence of recent date has been so faroaching
as this in its beneficial influence upon the public health,
and the action Of the Royal Baking Powder Company
in the inauguration OF such warfare, and in carrying
it forward with such important results, were universally
commented upon anu appreciated III making the
charges they did not hesitate to enter into competition
with every other baking powde, in the country, and il
is public satisfaction that in al the tests and anal Uses
made the Royal Baking Powder placed at the head
of the list and declared by Boards of Health and by
the Government chemists Drs Mott and Love, to be
superior to all others in strength and absolutely pure
and free from all inferior substances
In continuing this warfare against the adu,teraed
food more particularly the alum, lime, and otherwise
impure and inferior baking powders which unscrupulous
manufacturers endeavorng to force upon the market
in this locality, the Royal will undoubtedly meet with
the old-time opposition and abuse. We confident
however, that the public will appreciate, heretofore
both the object of the stop thief cry and the work of
the Royal Company in its attempts to protect it and to
rid the market of these dangerous articles of food.

The Butchertown Senator.

It is topic of conversation in
Nevada, and the papers comment
on it, that Dunphy, one of the
Butchertown monopolists is going
to run for Senator from Nevada,
and that he is to disburse the con-
tents of sack to that end. The
sack is estimated to contain a mil
lion dollars, ormore. This must be
pleasant news for the meat consum-
ers in San Francisco, when they
think that million dollars
squeezed out of their pockets is to
be used to debauch Nevada politics
if such thing be possible.
1t will take a good deal more
than a million dollars to send an
other nonresident of Nevada to the
Senate.

The Butler Meeting.

NEW YORK, August 28.-The
Sun in a leader says: The most no.
| table meeting of the compaien will
probably be that held here Satur-
day evening on Union Square. In
the full blaze of electric lights and
with Butler present, what an as
semblage it will be. At least 100
600 souls will throng the square
and its approaches. The enthusi-
asm and ardor of the crowd will be
glowing. The Sun predicts the
new organization for Butler known
as the People party" will display
more vitality than either of the old
parties in the approaching aggressive
weeks of the campaign.
The ''Rowdy West has never
been responsible for such atrocities
as have just come to light in Penr-
sylvanis. In that gray old State
one lunatic was chained to stake
for thirty years, and another for
sixty years, both under the care
of relatives. 1t is believed that in
vestigations will bring to light more
such cases in Pennsylvania. We
blush for the inhumanity of the
East. What meanness can there
be more despicable, what cruelty
more damnable, than this of chain
ing poor idiots to stake for scores
Of years? The West has many
bloody deeds to answer for, CON-
mitted in the heat of passion, and
for trivial cause, but what are these
to the devilish crimes
that blacken the fame Of Pennsyl.
7ania? The West may be a little |
'ough in speech and quick in quar- |
rel, but its heart has always been |
,pen and generous, and its treat |
nent of the unfortunate insane |
ever kind ahd liberal.-Bee.
