Reply to A. E. Judevine.

Mr.. EdtOr.-I notice that A. r. Jude
vine has seen fit to deny the correctness
of my statements contained in the Hard
wick items of three weeks ago and to pour
out his walls of wrath " upon me in his
characteristic style. In reply, 1 will say
that it is true that the gentleman claims to
have made a will in which he devised a por-
ton of his estate to the town of Hardwick
upon certain conditions. Also, it is true
that he told at least one of the listers, prior
to their appraisal of real estate, what he
proposed to do or had done, provided he
was well treated by the town. Also it is
true that, in making statement before the
board of civil authority at the meeting of
July 18th to hear and consider appeals
from the listers apprasals, he referred to
the will matter and apparently sought to
use it as menace or argument to influence
their official action. Also, it is true that he
appeared angry at the decision of the board
of civil authority in not yielding to his
he claims to have made a codicil to his will
two days subsequent to the said meeting of
the board of civil authority, revolling his
bequest to this town, and which he brought
to public notice by causing to be filed a copy
of the same in the town clerks office, where
it has since been posted up for public in
spection Also it is true that some citizens
of this town believe this whole will matter,
so far as it relates to the town, to be only a
scheme of its author to influence the reduc-
ton of his real estate list, for which it has
apparently been made public and used. In
reply to the gentleman's threat embraced in
the closing words of his note, we will say
that the evidence proving the truth of the
foregoing statements appears both abun-
dant and conclusive.

refined cream of tartar of the market used
by manufacturers of other baking powders,
and Of most of the substitutes therefor which
enter into the composition of many powders,
and in this important respect, as well as in
its general purity and whoesomeness, the
Royal baking powder is superior to any
other powder which have examined. The

RENSSELAER, PoLYTEcHNIc INSTITUTE,
Troy, n. Y, July IL, 1SS6.-After careful
examination of the Royal baking powder, as
sold in different cities, | find it to be com
pounded of carefully prepared, wholesome
materials. The cream of tartar used in its
manufacture lis refined to an extent greatly
in advance of the ordinary commercial ar
ticle, and the result is the obtaining of a
product much purer than other baking
powders which have come under my obser-
walton. The main objection to inferior
grades of cream of tartar Is the presence of
a large percentage of tartrate of lime, and
this the new and perfected refining process
of the Royal " succeeds in overcoming.

from the Albany Evening Journal
In the interest of the many thousand
housekeepers of this city and state who look
to the journal for information relative to the
live topics of the day, two of the most promi-
nent chemists of this vicinity, Professor
Tucker of the Albany Medical University
and Professor Mason of the Rensselaer, In
stitute of Troy, We're some time since re-
quested to make a thorough analytical eX-
animation upon a much-mooted question of
baking powder supremacy. These gentle
men are well-known as chemists of high
standing and for their extended services as
public analysts, and the journal recognized
the fact that any report to which they affixed
their signatures would stand without ques-
ton as to the correctness and impartiality
of its statements. The claim made by the
Royal Baking Powder Company that it man
ufactured the only absolutely pure baking
powder in the country, and that all others
contained either lime or alum was very
sweeping one If true large number of
housekeepers who were using other baking
powders, relying upon the statements of
their manufacturers that they were pure,
had an interest in knowing the facts. If the
claim was an eXtraVagant one, that the
public might feel assured of the safety of
using other goods, and for the credit of our
local manufacturers, that fact it was felt
should also be made known. Professors
Tucker and Mason were therefore especially
directed to procure from the dealers of AL
bany and Troy packages of the Royal baking
powder to analyze, and critically examine
and compare them with other brands on the
market and report, without bias and without
prejudice, whether these claims Of the Royal
Baking Powder Company that their goods
were superior to all others and exclusively
pure were true or not. The matter of
purity and cleanliness in human food is one
of the most important, affecting as it does
the health and comfort of every one, that
can engage our attention. The reports which
we publish below should settle beyond dis
pute all question with reference to the use
of one of the most largely employed of all
our culinary articles.
