STRANGE "REMINISCENCES.
The Part that Stephen A. Douglas Expected
to Take in the War.
Letter from Chicago.

Letter from Chicago.
When Stephen A. Douglas returned to this
city from Washington, after having given in
his adhesion to Mr.. Lincoln's administration and
its war policy and programme, he sent message
to Mr. Merrick. the recently deceased Washing
ton lawyer, to the effect that he desired to see
him in hi room at the fremont House. When
the latter presented himself, he was very cor
conversation with him on the condition Of the
country, closing with an offer to the young
lawyer-who had commanded company in the
Mexican war-of brigader generaship in the
Union army. Mr.. Merrick, however, refused
the offer, saying he could not fight against his
tate-Maryland-or the South Upon his
continued persistence in his refusal,
Senator Douglas rose from his seat and,
striking the table with his clinched hand, while
his countenance presented the aspect of uncon-
querabe hate and determination, SAID: '.Mr
Merrck, am to have high command in the
Union army, and with it such power as will
enable me to put both you secessionists and the
Abolitionists to the sword l am determined, sir,
to exercise this power to the fullest extent at the
proper opportunity" Mr.. Merrick's theory was
that Douglas intended to play the part of
Napoleon in the war, and, after one or two great
battles, unite the more moderate men of both
sections in an attempt to restore the Union
through compromise on the slavery question.
Nor was Richard T. Merrick, the only Chicago
politician to whom the dead Senator offered a
command in the Union army, in which common
fame gave him the prospective rank of leuten-
nt-general,

housekeeping Pests.

There were already sufficient front door Eui
sances to annoy good housekeepers and make life
a burden without the addition of the female bak
ing powder tester. This individual, or rather
these individuals, for they travel in bands,
directed by an agent of the other SEX as ex-
planned by several ladies who have been victim
lied, operate as follows: Calling at private
residences and manoeuyering to get access to the
kitchen they introduce the subject of baking
powders inquiring the kind used in the family.
Being shown the can, perhaps fresh, full one,
they volunteer to ''test" it to ascertain it's quail
ties. Their test consists in placing the can on
hot stove over lamp gas jest. If the
baking powder is good for anything the heat will.
OF course expel the gas, which, being ammoniacal
or carbonlc, is apparent to the sense OF smell.
The claim is then made that this odor indicates
something detrimental although, as a matter of
fact, a baking powder that would give off no gas
when subjected to heat would be without leaven-
ing power and valueless. Circulars are left with
the hcusekeeper condemning the brand of bak-
ing powder tested, and putting forth the claims
of some other brand as the ''ony pure" ETC.; or
ders taken for it to be turned over to the
family grocer.
Were this the whole of the trick housekeepers
would not often be deceived. Every intelligent
person knows that baking powder is not made to
be used in this way but in a mixture with flour
and water, where it's action is entirely different
from that produced by dry heat. But the chief
object of this jugglery is to destroy the baking
drive off Its leavening gases, and so weaken it
that when used it will fail to work. At the next
baking there is heavy food, of course, and the
tramp probably gets the credit of having told
the housekeeper valuable fact instead of hav
ing spoiled her baking powder, as was actually
the case. The average tramp" will, in this
way, destroy from fifty to seventy five pounds of
baking powder day.

ing powder in kitchen where they are not per-

throwing in small quantity of salt soda

to be no baking powder in the house, the opera
tors will produce, of the kind used by the
family, sample that has been purposely adul-
terated Or ''aoctored' to make such an exhibit as
they desire under the so-caled test.
The only way 10 protect food from being con-
tamnaled by tramps of this kind is to turn all
persons who wish or attempt to tamper with it
unceremoniously from the door, and TO use those
articles, only. which experience has proved satis-

as United States district-attorner for southwest
