THE NINE HORROR.
seyenty-two supposed 20 Have Besn
kilIed--The work OF Recovery.

WELLINGTON. b. G. Jan. 27--Vla Vic
torin. The exploring party In the Dun.
smuir colleries worked all Tuesday night.
A number of bodies, both white and
Chinese, were located In the slope,
but II was not until this "wednesday
afternoon that the work OF bringing the
bodies TO the surface was begun. In
about an hour the bodies Of seven whites
and eight Chinese had been raised to the
surface. All were terribly mangled and
blackened beyond recognition and the
only means OF knowing them were by the
locations In which they were found. The
report in circulation that many more
than was first supposed were killed. Is
happily untrue. Every individual In the
east slope, where the explosion occurred
was killed. Those In tho west slope
were badly shaken up by the conclusion
and had II not been for the presence OF
mind exhibited above In Immediately
repairing the air fans many would un.
doubtedly have been suffocated by after
damp. The resistance OF the force OF
the explosion Is shown by the manner In
which the eightinch pipes were snapped
and the heavy tmbers were reduced TO
splinters. One Of the heavy iron cages
was blown completely out Of the shaft.
At 9 o'clock tonight "wednesday eight
cen white men and twenty-five Chinese
had been taken out Of the pit, while
seven more bodies hayc been found In the
slope. There remained at that hour
thirteen white men and ninteen Chinese In
the mine. A correct estimate Of the
casualties show that thirty.one white
men and forty.one Chinese persisted In
the cast slope. The officials Of tho
colliery company have done everything
In their power to hasten the removal OF
the bodies In the mine and see that they
are properly cared for. Such miners as
belong to the Masons or other societies,
have been taken charge Of by their broth.
rem. while the other bodies were taken to
their homes. All the collicries have
been closed since the accident occurred.

DefecGS Of the Phosphate Baking Pow
ders-Their large and Unwhole-
some KexIlu,tu1-


We have already commented upon the
dangerous proposition advanced by the
phosphate yeast or baking powder max
ers to daily dose the entire community, ir-
respective of its physical needs or ailments,
with lime sulphates and phosphates, i'm
purities that are found in their powders.
1t seems almost incredible that any sane
person should put forward as an argu-
ment in behalf OF an article of food intend
ed for daily use, the claim that it contains
amongst its impurities a drug which I'M
der certain conditions If properly prescrib-
ed by physician might be useful as
medicine Physicians will at once see
that to endorse any such theory as this is
even more dangerous than to recommend
to their patients the indiscriminate use of
the various patent medicines advertised on
every hand as specifics for all the diseases
which flesh is heir to.
la the recent examination of baking
powders made by the Ohio State Food
Commission the phosphate baking or
yeast powders were found to contain large
quantities Of lime phosphates, lime sui
plates etc, which appeared as impurities
Their manufacturers have so far found it
impossible to get rid of these impurities,
and this probably accounts for their re-
markable claim that such impurities are
good for us to eat.
Tie preposterous character of this claim
is evident from the fact well-known to all
physicians that the body gets with its ordi-
nary food more lime phosphates than it can
assimilate. The vital organs are taxed,
even in health to throw this excess off.
Pure and wholesome baking powders. as
is well known, are made from highly re-
fined cream of tartar. In phosphate bak-
ing or yeast powders phosphate acid is
used as a substitute for cream of tartar on
account Of its eheapness. The ingredients
and process used by well known manu-
lacturer iii the preparation of phosphate
baking powders are found in the records OF
the patent Office at Washington. This
is the formula
500POUNDSBURNEDA AND GROUND
BONES are placed in
400 POUNDS SULPHURIC ACID (oil
OF Nitrol), freshly diluted with
900 POUNDS WATER, and stirred from
time to time for three days. The
paste is mixed with farinaceons ma
terial, or with freshly burned gypsum
or with stearine, and dried and pull
verified This pnlverized acid
| Is to be used with bi-earbonate OF
| soda in baking powders.
| Bones of defunct animals are gathered
| from. in and about the great cities, on bat
| tie fields, and wherever else they may be
found in quantities. These bones are re-
duced to a powder with sulphnric acid and
| this powder is tile substitute used in the
cheap phosphate baking and yeast pow.
| ders in lieu Of the wholesome and more eX
pcnsive cream of tartar.
The sulphuric acid, with the lime and
phosphorus of the bones, produce the sui
plate and phosphate of lime found in the
impurities OF the phosphate baking Of
yeast powders.

the Christian vote.

Are Prohibitionists stingier than the
average, and why does prohibition, tri-
umphant in every debate and trial, even
before the war-yes, thirty years ago
why does it make such slow Roadway to-
day? Oar answer to both questions is
Christian prohibition; souls, tongues and
purses are enslavad to tyrant majority
of pro. slavery --eycuse me, | should have
said pro-license church members and
managers. Under present pro-slayery-l
mean pro license sway Prohibitionists
pay their inll quota Of church, state and
social taxes, and many find it difficult to
meet those levies; after which poor Pro
hibition must take up with the crumbs
that fall under the itch license masters
table.
What | wish TO know is why Christian
Prohibitionsts, ithont protest, hand over
so much prohibition money to support
pro license Sabbath services, churches and
preachers? Pay your slars Of money aud
attendance, Of course. But why do it so
mutely, dnmbly, deaf and blind to the
woeful cries and IN iseres Of drunk wreck
ed IA Tiers, mothers and children of rum
starved laborers, of Borrowing, rum crimi-
nalized prisoners? At the last presidential
election, out Of 3, 900, 900 protesting Chris
