she noticed Fred SGJtt, a eolored boy, in
the act of shooting a gun off at q tin can,
which was between her and Scott. When
she saw the gun pointing at her she stopped
down. The shot WAS fired, when she felt
a sharp sting on her head and then the
blood began to run down all over her lace,
and she began to scream. She said it made
her sad to see her and papa cry:

Maud Perkins Accidentally Shot
by Fred Scott, a Colored
ROOfh1ack-

Yesterday afternoon about 1 O'Clock a
shot was heard in the diggings between the
two bitches on Arizona street, when irlme-
diately cries were heard from little Maud
Perkins II am shot. I am shot.' The
frightened mother, who heard the cries, ran
at once to the little ones rescue, and
clasped the child to her breast while the
blood trickled down its face from its fore
head. As soon as the child saw the tears
falling from the eyes OF the grief-stricken
mother she said: Don't cry, mamma, l
amt hurt very badly and stopped CRYING
NJ. c. Bonney, who was close by, took
the child from the mothers arms and car
ried her to the house and summoned the
father. Or. 0. B. Whitford was sent for,
and on his arsival he probed for the ball,
but was unable to extract it, as it had Just
struck on the center OF the forehead and
along the top of the skull about

no vital part had been touched. and left
some directions for the little sufferer. A

SICK REPUBLICANS.

1t was conceded by Democrats long
before tho meeting OF the Republican Terri
torial Convention that Mr.. T. C. Power, OF
Fort Benton, was the strongest man the
opposition could put up against Mr.. Toole.
That he was not nominated can be
accounted for only upon the hypothesis
that the Republican party is welded to it's
idol and like Ephraim of old is given up to a
hardness OF heart and a reprobacy of
mind that it may be damned. Mr.. Power
would have polled about the full strength
OF his party vote and made it ~uncomforta.
bly, warm for Mr.. Toole. His experience in
public life is limited TO q few daysIYeryice
in the Territorial Constitutional Conven-
ton in which he made a fair record, and
but little could have been urged against
him on that score. HeA6uld have made a
splendid run in northsra Montana where
he is firmly entrcnched in the affections OF
the people. Speaking of this matter the
River Press OF the 18th inst. says:
The nomination Of Col. Sanders fell fiat
in Fort Benton. TIC. Power was the ia.
vorite, and had it been known that he was
in the race the Choteau delegation would
have been solid for him. The fatal fifteenth
ballot fell like a wet blanket in this COM
munity. A sicker lot of Republicans would
he hard to scare up"
And it may be said that this sickness of
Republicans extends throughout tho Ter
ritory. 1t is epidemical, and one can
scarcely find q Republican whs is not more
or less affected with nausea and disgust by
the candidacy Of Col. Sanders, His pro.

ANOTHER case Of almost fatal shooting
is reported in these columns. This time it
is a little girl who is the victim. Had the
leaden messenger struck her two or three
inches lower it would have entered her
brain through the eye, producing death.
The shooting, though accidental. savors
strongly OF crime in the face OF the many
instances OF injuries received and narrow
escapes from death lately through the care.
less use of firearms in the suburbs of the
city. This handling OF guns by boys should
be stopped before some life be sacri-
feed to the practice. There is a law
upon our statute books, we believe,
prohibiting persons from shooting upon
the premises OF another without the con-
sent Of the owner OF such premises, and at.
taching a penalty for its violation. It is
possible that under that or some other
statutory enactment parties who indulge |
in promiscuous shooting around the city
may be arrested and punished. 1t is high
time the practice should be stopped.

Cricket Game.

There was played last Sunday a friendly
game OF cricket between the Butte Cricket
Club and an eleyen from Burlington. The
Burlington Club was sent first to the bat.
1t was apparent to a close observer from
the start that the Burlington Club was no
match for the Butteites, for in a short
while the Burllngtons were bowled out with
only 2S runs to their credit for the first
inning. The Butte Club now went to the
bat and commenced knocking the ball first
in Ole direction and then in another until
they retired with a score OF 70 to their
credit, which beingtwice the amount made
by the Burlingtons. who now went to the
bat determined to do better. At the end
OF their second inning the score stood only
68 for the %Rurlingtons in two innings,
while the Butte Club had one inning and
five runs to spare. This in all probability
will be the last cricket match played this
unless the Burlingtons should want
when they will be accommo-
dated. So far the Butte Cricket Club is the
OF the Northwest.

FOOD FRAUDS.
The Shameful Use oil Lime and Alum
in Cheap Baking Powders.

Many food frauds, such as chicory coffee
swindle in a commercial sense, are often
tolerated because they do not particularly
affect the health OF the consumer, but when
an article like baking powder. that enters
largely into the food OF every family. and
is relied upon ior the healthful preparation
of almost every meal, is SO made as to
carry highly injurious, il not rankly poison.
Gus, elements into the bread to the immi.
nent danger OF the entire community. it is
the duty of the press to denounce the prac.
tlce in the most emphatic terms.
Among recent important discoveries by
the food analysis is that by Prof. Mott. OF
the United States Government Chemist,
large amounts Of lime and alum IN the
cheap baking powders. These are, one the
most dangerous, and the other the most
useless, adulterants found in the low grade,
inferior baking powders. 1t is a startling
fact that of over one hundred different
brands OF baking powder so far analysed,
comprising all those sold in this vicinity,
not one OF them, with the single exception
OF the Royal Baking Powder, was found
free from both lime and alum. The chief
service OF lime is to add weight. 1t is true
that lime, when subjected to heat, gives off
a certain amount OF carbonic acid gas. but
Il quck-lilna is left-a caustic so pow
erful that it is used by tanners to eat
the hair from hides OF animals,
and in dissecting rooms to more quickly
rot the flesh from the bones OF dead sub
jects. A small quantity of dry lime upon
the tongue, or in the eye produces painful
effects; how much more serious must these
effects be upon the delicate membranes OF
the stomach, intestines and kidneys. more !
particularly OF infants and children, and
especially when the lime is taken into the
system day after day. and wit almost
every meal. This is said by physicians to
be one OF the chief causes OF Indigestion, /
dyspepsia and those painful diseases of the
kidneys now so prevalent. Instances OF
the most serious affections OF the latter
from drinking lime waters found in
sections Of the West are noted in
every medical journal.
Adultrations with lime is quite as much
to be dreaded as with alum. which has
heretofore received the most emphatic con-
demnation from every food analyst, ply
sician and chemist, for the reason that.
while alum is probably partially dissolved
and passed of in gas by the heat of bak-
it is impossible to destroy or change
he nature IF the lime in any degree, so
bat the entire amount in the baking pow
Ter passes, with all its injurious proper
les, into the stomach. When we state
hat the chemists have found twelve per
.ent., or one-eighth OF the entire weight OF
'ome samples of baking powder analysed,
be lime, the wickedness OF the adultera-
ion will be fully apparent.
Pure baking powders are one OF the chief
ids to the cook in preparing perfect and
wholesome food. While those are to be
obtained OF w~ell-established reputation,
ike the Royal, OF whose purity there has
ever been and cannot be a question, it is
to avoid all others.
