Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1884-06-17

Yesterday was the day set 70,
the return of the writ Of habeas
corpus in the Bergman case. The
writ was made returnable before
Chief Justice Hawley. 1t seems
that when the petition for the writ
was fled in the Supreme Court,
the Sheriff of Washoe Co., had
Bergman in actual custody, but
subsequently and before the re-
turn day named in the writ he was
released by the Sheriff and when
the case was called on yesterday
the Sheriff in answer to the writ
replied that he did not have the
doctor in custody and that he was
not depriving him of his liberty,
but that he was free to wander
whithersoever he might. His Hon
or Judge Hawley suggested that
since there was no ''bodd before him
to be released he did not see how
any order could be made in the
case, and upon this view of the
case the writ was dismissed.

Shad in Walker Lake.

Two years ago 1000 shad spawn
were planted in Walker Lake for
the benefit of the people Of Haw-
thorne. The citizens did not realize
what sort of fish the shad was un-
til the restaurant keepers attempted
to serve them on the table. The
miners who were nearly choked to
death with the bones surrounded
one of the restaurants and threat
ened to hang the proprietor if any
more shad were served. This con-
strained Jack Campbell Of the
Bulletin to write the following:
When IN angel made shad
II e devil WAS mad,
For it seemed such . feast of delight,
SO, to ruin the scheme
He plunged in the stream
And stuck in the bones out Of spite.
When strawberries red
First illumned their bed,
The angel looked on aud was glad.
But the devil. it's said,
Fairly pounded his head,
For he'd nsed all the bones for the shad.

It is melancholy reading to look
over the mining stock report pub
lished daily in the Carson APPEAL.
Mining shares that were formerly
worth from hundreds to thousands
of dollars are quoted from ten cents
up to 81 s. the highest. What
were formerly the best shares in
the Comstock now appear to have
only a nominal value. - Kern

We admit that these stock reports
difuse much melancholy in this

ously agitated that it necessaril.
arouses the curiosity of the publi'
at large, and leads them to ascer
tain, if possible, what is it al
about. In the first place the ques-
ton arises, what is ammonia
whence comes it?
Quoting United States Dispen
satory." 1T was probably origin.
ally prepared from putrid urine.
Other sources are "coal-soot, stale
urine, guano, ETC. The Encyclo.
padia Britannica" says of it: Car.
Donate Of ammonia is obtained in
largest quantities by the putrefac-
ton of the urine of animals, or the
dry distillation Of animal matter. y
''Roscoe's Chemistry" states that
when ''hornes or clippings of hides
are heated, ammonia is given off;
hence ammonia was known as
spirits of heartshorn." ''The name
ammonia is derived from the fact
that a compound containing am
monia was first prepared by heat
ing camel's dung Ammonia is
mainly obtained, from the ammon-
iacal liquors of gas works. Guano,
the dried cxcrement of sea birds,
and the urine of animals, likewise
contain large quantities of am
monia." Farmers know its value
as a fertilize, and physicians know
its value as a counter-irritant and
powerful stimulent. All physicians
class it among drugs, and as a drug
it is a question whether it is not
better to let it remain in the hands
Of physicians and druggists, and
leave it out of our food. A recent
article called a Baking Powder
Trick condemns as a scheme or
trick the simple method which has
been given through these columns,
a housewife may ascer-
tain. without the aid of chemists or
chemical apparatus, whether she
is using an article free from dis
gushing ingredients; and after once
convinced of the true source of am
monia, and its presence in an ar
ticle Of food,it is her option wheth-
or the use of it is continued or not.
The test may be a simple one, but
by its means the unsuspecting find
that cans of Baking Powder"

Pure" contained ammonia, and
certainly no refined person who has
,nce read some reliable authority
IN ammonia would be likely to
,ring home for use an article con-
aiming so inferior substance.
Baking powders have become a
useful, and important
rticle in millions Of homes. and

nd sell it only as conforms to we'll
,nown conditions which insue
lealth and safety, There is no
ifhculty in procuring a baking |
owder that will stand the test of

lonia. If an article has merit, and

a place there, but if product of

zen it is, any means, however sim
lie, by which its inferiority may be
