A MAN FALLS 100 FEET.

BLOOMINGTON, Nd, May H.
Passengers on Baltimore and Ohio
trains passing up and down the IL
mile grade often look down into the
ravines and wonder what would be
the fate of man if he were to fall
over the steep bank. James Boohan,
the Baltimore and Ohio Waterman at
the cut above Bloomington, fell over
the bank at the steepest place about
2 O'Clock this afternoon. He was
picked up alive, but can hardly live
until morning. Boohan, who is aged
about go, lives near Bloomington and
Patrick Foley, track walker, aged
about IS, who married Boohan's
daughter, lives some distance west,
near the first tunnel. This afternoon
the two men were together on the
track a short distance below the Loeb
lei lumber mills and became engaged
in an alteration, it is said, on domes-
tic matters. They finally came to
personal collision and the result was
the old man, Boohan, went over the
bank, sheer distance of 100 feet, fall
ing to the bed of Savage river, When
he was picked up he was alive and
but had three broken ribs,
a dislocated shoulder, badly cut
head and internal injuries, which will
probably cause his death. Foley was
arrested by constable and commit
ed by Justice Moody to Oakland Jail,
to await the result of Boohan's injur-

A WARMING.

The modes of deaths approach are
various, and statistics show conclusively
that more persons die from diseases OF
the Throat and Lungs that any other. 1t
is probable that everyone, without excep-
ton, receives vast numbers of Tubercle
Germs into the system and where these
germs fall upon suitable soil they start
into life and develop, at first slowly and
is shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue
their ravages they extend to the lungs
producing Consumption and to the head ,
causing Catarrh. Now all this is dan
gerous and if allowed to proceed will In
time cause death. AT the onset you must
act with promptness allowing cold to
go without attention is dangerous and
may lose your life. AS soon as you feel
that something is wrong with your
Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain bot.

LARGE FUNERAL.-The funeral of
Mr.. Sterling A. Woodruff, on Tues
day, WAS the largest that has been
witnessed in this city for long time.
The sad circumstances surrounding
his death, and the high esteem in
which he was held combined to draw
forth large crowd of sympathizing
friends. There was full turn out of
the Masonic fraternity, of the Broth

the Royal Arcanum. The spacious

CONTRIBUTING A BAKING pow
DER.

The public is too well informed as
to the danger from alum baking DOW
ders to need any caution against
using them. 1t is, nevertheless, a fact
that many of our most prudent and
careful housekeepers are, without
knowing 1t, using these deieterious
articles daily, and from them prepar-
ing for their families food which, were
they made aware of its nature, they
would not offer to a beggar. Baking
powders made from burnt alum cost
less than four cents a pound. When
these can be worked offin place of the
Royal Baking Powder, and sold for
forty or fifty cents pound, there are
many manufacturers and dealers I'M
scrupulous enough to do it.
A favorite method of selling these
poisonous alum baking powders is by
placing them in an empty Royal Ba-
king Powder can and weighing them
out in small quantities when the Roy.
al Baking powder is called for by Gus
TONERS. The grocer, If questioned,
claims that he buys in large packages
at lower rate, and is thus enabled to
sell below the price of the goods in
small cans. All baking powders sold
In this way are entitled to suspicion.
Analyses of many of them have been
made with view to a prosecution,
and in all cases they have been found
largely adulterated and generally
made from poisonous burnt alum.
This is selling counterfeit goods, and
is, of course, an offence against the
law. We are glad to know that the
Royal Baking Powder Company has
taken the matter in hands, and is
acting in way that will protect the
public from swindle.
The surest protection from this
fraud is for the housekeeper to buy
the baking powder of the brand she
wishes in the original unbroken pack.
age, looking carefully to see that the
label has not been tempered with.
The Royal Baking Powder Company
announce, what is we'll known, that
their goods are packed for the conven-
fence of consumers in cans of various
sizes, but are never sold in bulk, by
the barrel or loose by weight or meas
ure. The cans are securely sealed
with the company's trade mark label,
and the weight of each package
stamped on the cover. Any baking
powder being peddled out by weight
under the name of Royal they de-
nounce as bogus and to be avoided.
Consumers should bear these facts in
mind if they do not wish to have i'm.
posed Upon them the poisonous alum
stuff that is being profusely distrib-
uted throughout the country under
the name of baking powder. If, how
ever, they buy the Royal in cans with
unbroken labels, they are always sure
of using a baking powder perfectly
pure and wholesome, and of the high
est test, strength and efficiency.

A COMPLEMENTARY Thursday of

the number of 125, attended, accom-

much to the regret of our people, who
had INDUCED the hope of witnessing
the best demonstration, with the fin

purpose to have in the line of process
sion, In addition to the visiting breth-
ern, three of the local companies-the
Vigilant Hook and Ladder, Good
Will and Cumberland Valley Hose
companies, which, with the Juniors,
would have been an imposing parade.
All these companies were at the
fair however and nothing was left un-
done to make it pleasant for the es-
teemed Martinsburg visitors, who
were the observed Of all observers and
the lions of the evening. The band
gave a delighted concert from the
stage. They sustained well the admit
ration of our people for their exquis-
lite performances which was shown
plause and again in the rapturous APP

Delighted features of the evening
were two presentations-one from the
Martinsburg Fire Department, being
