A KIND JUDGE.
A Man Whom Every Reporter and
Editor Liked.

Editor Liked.
Chicago Herald.
The late Judge Drummond will ever
be remembered by many newspaper
men for his consideration for them and
the attention he was always willing to
give them, no matter how busily he
might be engaged. One incident is
related by Charlie Fay, which occurred
when Mr.. Fay was city editor of one OF
the local papers. The great East
Chicago fiasco was then in the courts
before the judge. Allan c. Storey
and James r. Doolittle were
the counsel, one on each side of the
case. Fay had reporter on the case,
but the scribe bungled up the report,
and, as it was very important, Fay hus-
tied over to the court room himself in
the hope of getting the matter right.
The lawyers were busy and Charlie
could find no one to help him out. He
was worried, for time was flying, and
he buZZed around in an uneasy mann er
until Judge Drummond caught sight OF
him and motioned for him to come to
the bench. Charlie did so, and the judge
asked him what was the matter.
'Oh. L don't want 10 DOtner you,
judge" said Fay.
Haven't you got this case?" abrupt
ly inquired the judge. "YOu had re-
porter here, for saw him."
Eyes, had one," said Charlie, "but
he got things mixed, and l am in a
hole"
Leaning over to his clerk, Judge
Drummond said: II am going into my
chambers for short time" and then he
beckoned to Charlie to follow. He took
him inside, sat down, and actually die
tated all Fay wanted OF could use OF the
case.
II never could forget that act of Judge
Drummond's," said Charlie.

GOVERNMENT FOOD TESTS
Baking Powder Facts Of Interest
to All.

The most important investigation i'm
its relation to the health of the public
through the quality of its food that has
been undertaken by any government is
that which has been in progress during
the past two years in the chemical divis-
ion of the Agricultural department at
Washington, ID. c., as to the purity or
adulteration of articles of food, drink
and drugs found for sale throughout
the country.
The latest report gives the constitu
ents of all the baking powders analysed.
The cream of tartar powders comprise,
probably, two-thirds of all sold. The
best of these are compounded from
cream of tartar, carbonate of soda and
small portion of carbonate of ammonia.
The report quotes the highest authority,
showing that the ammonia adds to the
leavening power Of the powder without
detracting from its healthfulness, while
it makes purer food, as it leaves no re-
Siduum.
The purest powder is that which
leaves the least reSiduum in the bread,
and the least residuum results from the
powder giving the largest amount of
leavening gas.
The comparative value or genera use
fulness and purity of the cream of tar
tar powders examined will, therefore, be
seen from the following figures given in
the report, showing the strength of
each. The table shows the cubic inches
of leavening gas per ounce of each of
the powders named:

ENDED AT LAST.
After Many Years the Crossings
Case Is Settled.

Yesterday the final agreement in the
crossings case was reached, and there
only remain few nominal changes to
be made before the agreement will be
finally signed and the long contested
legal battle between the Manitoba and
Minneapolis & St. Louis roads will
be a thing of the past. A few
Eastern shareholders will have to
append their signatures. and the
papers will be taken East at once for
that purpose. Immediately upon the
final signing will follow the bridging of
the tracks. The cases pending in the
United States supreme court will be
dismissed, and the legal aspect of the
affair will be ended. Before another
year passes the railroad company ex-
poets to have the various streets bridged
that have been so long a subject for
dlSsensiOn between the companies and
the city.
The outline of the plan for settle
ment was decided upon about month
ago, when President Hill, of the Mani
toba, accepted Judge Youug's PROPOSE
ton. Since then the various legal
lights have been busy upon the details,
which were quite lengthy and required
much time in perfecting. All parties
are at last perfectly we'll satisfied, and
the legal battle, which has been on for
over four years, is at last amicably set
tied. The papers will now be for
warded for acceptance by the trustees
of the roads, the Central Trust COM
pany, the Farmers Loan and Trust
company and the Fidelity Insurance,
afety Deposit and Trust company, Of
hiladelDhia.

One Plain Drunk.

Katie Spencer was before the NUM-
cipal court yesterday morning charged
with drunkenness. She claimed that
she had taken dose of laudanum the
night before because she was tired of
life and wanted to die. According to
her story she ran away from her hus-
band in New York last winter and came
to Minneapolis. She also stated that she
followed literary pursuits and had writ
ten articles for the Pioneer Press, for
which she had received no pay. From
appearances the woman had once been
lady, although she has fallen to be a
physical wreck. Her language showed
that she was possessed of good educa-
ton. She was no stranger to the court,
and was given ten days in the work
house to think over her past life.

THE CONFERENCE ENDS.
A Mammoth Ratification Meeting
at the Coliseum.


The great Scandinavian Lutheran fes-
tival at the Coliseum last evening was a
fitting finale to the long labors of the
conference, which have resulted in such
momentous action by the Lutheran
church. For years it has been the
dream of the leaders to unite the three
factions, and the crowd that filled the
immense building last night bore wit
ness to the fact that the work of the
various committees has received the I'M
qualified sanction of the people. The
congregation filled the building. and
was not lacking in enthusiasm. The
large stage was crowded with the men
who have been conducting the affairs
of the conference for over week past,
and the immense ratification gave them
infinite satisfaction, and proved to them
that their labors were not In vain, and
that the United Lutheran Church of
America was fixture.
The programme opened with an an
them, in which the people joined as if
their hearts were in the work, and Rev.
Mr.. Hoyne, the president of the new
society, delivered an eloquent address.
The Trinity church choir followed with
a selection, and Vice President l.. M.
Biron gave short address. A song.
written especially lOr lllo OCCdSlou NY
Rev. Mr.. Biron, was then given. Rev.
C. ]. Olson followed with stirring adj
dress. One of the pleasant features of
the evening was the song given by the
chorus of 200 trained voices, which was
splendidly sung, and showed the effect
Of careful training. Prof. G. Svendrup,
the president of Augsburg seminary;
Rev. P. A. Rasmussen. one of the lead
ers in the unity movement; Rev. H. G
Hahn and Rev. M. Falk Gjertson adj
dressed the large audience, and short
speeches followed by other members of
the conference committees. A hymn
was also sung by chorus of clergYmen.
This practically ends the conference,
although there will be a few church
meetings to follow. The next meeting
of the conference will be held next year
in Minneapolis at date to be an
nounced later by the committee.
