THE VISIT OF THE PRINCE OF WALES
TO IRELAND.-The Prince of Wales and
the Princess Alexandria left London last
night for Ireland and will land at Kingston
to day,-Wednesday The urney
through England will be private, the
Prince having refused all offers of address
es and receptions by the authorities of
towns along the road. The reception at
Kingston will be the official beginning of
the Princes Ir sh tour. A special carriage
for reporters will be attached to all the
royal trains during the progress through
Ireland! The Prince is enthusiastic over
the trip, and is taking the greatest interest
in all the preparations. He promises to do
everything that is asked of him by his en-
tertainers, and an immense programme is
already laid out. He will attend innumer-
abs shows, theatres aud bazars and visit
docks and harbors; will open various hos
pitfalls and other charitable institutions;
will personally acknowledge all addresses
presented to him, and will make speeches
whenever and wherever required. He
says that he is prepared to work every day
from A. NJ, to midnight. He seems
really anxious to win the affection of the
Irish people. He has refused all arrange
ments calculated to give his visit a political
aspect or to commit him to any party OF
faction.

The Aspinwall Affair.

The prompt and vigorous manner in
which the government has acted in the
Aspinwall affair shows the advantage, says
the Baltimore Sun, of having new chiefs
as heads of departments. If Command er
Kane, lying off Aspinwall with the Galena,
had acted at once when the steamship
Colon was seized by TIE rebels, plundered
OF her arms and the American consul i'm
prisoned, the subsequent burning of As
pinwall might have been prevented. One
OF the manifest episodes in our naval his
tory was the act of Capt. 1ngraham in lay
ing his ship alongside the Austrian vessel
OF war in Turkish port and demanding
the release OF Kosta. 1t might have served
as lesson to Commander Kane, but he
failed to seize his opportunity. The firm
and peremptory orders sent him by Secre-
tary Whitney as soon as the news of the
seizure of the Colon was received have not
only the true ring, but they settled at once
for Commander Kane the question as to
what his duty was. They will teach the
Central Americans that the lives and prop
erty of American citizens will be protected
hereafter by force of arms if necessary
In this Aspinwall business the case was
too clear to admit of doubt. Secretary
Bayard, on being called into consultation,
pointed out that we had bound ourselves
by treaty to guarantee uninterrupted tan
sit across the isthmus By the Panama Rail
road, and to protect Panama and Aspin-
wall as the ocean terminal of the line. 1t
is all that we can now do, but the quick
action Of the government, following imme-
diately after the orders sent by Secretary
Whitney to Commander Kane, and strength
ening and enforcing them, may be taken as
a notification to the Central and South
American States that, while we are not dis
posed to interfere in their internal broils,
we are determined that the protection of
the government will hereafter be promp ly
given to every American citizen whose life
or whose property may be unjustly put in
jeopardy.

no made as TO carry highly Injurious II
not rankly poisonous elements Into our
daily food, II would seem TO be the duty
of the press aa well M of the criminal
authorities TO take c0gnizlnce OF II.
In the fight for pure food made by the
Royal Company some time ago, when
ils guns were particularly trained
against the alum baking powders, II was
noticed that the most Trustworthy sclen'
tihc authorities were emphatically upon
its side. 30 In the recent contest with
the lime and other Impure baking pow
ders the result has proved that every
statement made by the Royal h king
Powder Company, both as TO the purity
Oflits own and the adulteratiOn Of other
baking powders OF the market, was fully
authorized by the most competent
chemical and medical authorities OF the
country,
In this contest two facts have been
pretty cOncluslyely settled In the minds
OF the pUblc-the first, that the Royal
Company has found the means, and uses
them, TO make a chemically pure article
Of food, and the other that the average
baking powder, no matter how strongly
endorsed by Commercial" chemists, IL
an exceedingly doubtful preparation.
Pure baking powders are one OF the
chief aids to the cook In preparing
feet and wholesome food. The recent
controversy In the press has left II no
longer a question with those who desire
purity and whOlesOmenese OF food what
baking powder they shall use.

Tho State Peddling License Law Declared
Unconstitutional at Youngstown.
Last Saturday, at Youngstown. Judge
ArTel, OF the MahOning county Common
Pleas Court, rendered very lmportont
decision, which materially affects Can
ton 40 well aa every other city and town
In Ohio In the matter OF compelling ped
dlers TO pay license before they can
ply their vocation. The declsIon was
given In the case Of j, II, Sharpe, OF
Cleveland, who was arrested to test the
peddling license under city ordinance.
For long time the Mayor has not
permitted any peddling In the city with.
out license. Sharpe travels for the
Metropolitan Manufacturing Company
OF NewYOTk and was sent TO Youngstown
purpOsely TO test the cOnstltutIonali' y OF
the ordinance,
The point at lsshe was that the State
OF Ohio under the constitution OF the
United States had no right TO discrim
inate In favor OF any State, Sharpe no.
cured his release from jail by q writ OF
habeas corpus, and the argument was
on the discharge OF the prisoner.
rhe Judge decided that the ordinance
was unconstitutional, and that the pris.
oner should DO discharged, TbiS decis
lon annuls two sections OF the State
statute; that is, II declares section 1906
unconstitutional, and also appendix A
