NEEDED LEGISLATION.
Baking Powder Bill Passed by the
Minnesota Senate.

Baking Powder Bill Passed by the
Minnesota Senate.
The recent newspaper discussion of the
dangerous qualities of ammonia comes
from the alarming increase of its use in
baking powders. People who absorb it
in small quantities from day to day suf-
fer from slow ammonia poisoning. Taken
internally in sufficient quantities it eats
away the coatings of the stomach and in
testines and causes death. Slow am
monia poisoning produces various, forms
of stomach trouble.
Not one woman in ten. thousand would
use an ammonia baking powder if she
knew it. Such powders not only under
mine the health, but ammonia impartS
sallOw and blotched complexion.
Following is the bill recently passed
by the Minnesota Senate. It's the danger
signal which the law throws out for the
protection Of the people:
A BILL FOR AN ACT TO REGULATE THE
TRAFFIC IN BAKING POWDER.
Section /. Any person who shall knowingly
sell or procure the sale, or offer for sale of any
package or can of baking powder, containing
amy ammonia in it, not distinctly, legiby ana
durably branded, stamped or marked in
conspicuous place with the words in the Eng
hsh language, ''This Baking Powder Contains
Ammonia" in letters of great plea or any
letters equivalent thereto in length shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor, and punished by
Tine not less than $50 nor more than 500:
shall be confined in the County Jail not less
than ten nor more than twenty days or by
both fine and Imprisonment, at the discretion
of the court.
Section 2. The sale or offer for sale of the
substance mentioned in the foregoing section
in PACKAGES not stamped, marked, branded
or labeled as therein required, shall be prima-
facie evidence of knowledge of the character
OF said substance, on the part of the person so
selling or offering for sale and his employer.
Section 3. This Act shall be in force on and
after its passage.
NoTE.-An incident occurred in the
House when the Senate bill came up for
passage, in reference to an amendment
proposed by Mr.. Diment. This was op-
posed by several members. Mr.. Feig
said that if the bill as it came from the
Senate was all right then the amendment
was all wrong. The amendment COM
polling the printing of the word ''am-
monia" on the label only affected the
Royal Baking Powder, aud no wonder
they felt the Senate bill was blow at
them.-St. Paul Dispatch.

ST. PAUL'S LOSS.
A MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF
PROPERTY BURNED.
The Fire Department Have Hard
Time Getting the Flames
Under Control.

Special TO the RECoRD-UNIoE.
ST. PAUL, Nov. lS.-St. Paul last night
suffered one Of the most disastrous fires
in its history, the buildings damaged be-
ing those Of Griggs, Cooper d Co., whole
sale grocers, and Farwell, Ozemun, Kirk
tE Co., wholesale hardware merchants.
The total loss is estimated at from $780,.
600 to Sl,000,00O. The losses are covered
by insurance.
The building occupied by the two
firms is brick and stone structure, five
stories high, and has frontage on Third
street 300 feet, and on Broadway 200 feet.
GriggS, Cooper IL Co., occupy tWo-thirdS
of the building.
The flames first made their appearance
at 1l:4 O'Clock, in the fourth floor of
Griggs, Cooper IL Co.'s building. Within
less than five minutes the Fire Depart
ment was on hand in force, but general
alarm had to be turned in soon afterward.
The rapidity with which the flames
spread, the binding volumes of smoke
which filed the streets surrounding, the
cold weather and the inability of the fire.
men to get at the fire, rendered their
work very hard. In half an hour from
the time the alarm was sent in the flames
leaped through the roof and communi
Gated to the adjoining building, where
they made rapid progress.
The hremen turned their attention to
saving the floors below and by hard
work for time succeeded in confining
most of the damage to the upper floor,
though the loss in this department alone
would reach fully $500, GOO.
The flames crept downward in the
hardware building through the elevator
shaft, and one by one the other floors
succumbed.
The fire IN Griggs, Cooper & Co.'s
building at this time turned downward
to the ground floor. The fire department
fought valiantly against terrible odds,
and at $3.50 the walls fell.
The flames set fire to the frame build
ing used by the Northern Pacific News
Company. Soon the walls of the Far
well, Ozemun 6c Kirk building fell out
ward.
Several attempts were made to save the
stock in the less-exposed parts of the
buildings, but without avail, and the
complete destruction of both stock and
buildings was inevitable.
The building belonged TO d. c. Shep-
hard. 1t was estimated to be worth
100000. The losses are estimated as fol-
lows: Farwell, Ozemun IL Kirk, S400, 900,
with an insurance of S350,000; Griggs,
Cooper & Co., on building and stock, loss
$550,000; fully insured. The total loss is
$950,OO0.
The flames were under control at 4:30
this morning, but they were fast consum-
ing what remained of the stock.
No definite information is obtainable
as to the cause of the fire, but it is thought
to have originated in some unknown
manner in the packing-room on the
fourth floor.
Both firms will continue business with
out interruption. Their books and ac-
counts were saved.

One of the advantages of the Merino
sheep is that it will forage better than the
large breeds, being more active. The
Merino and Southdown can be kept in
larger f1ocks than can some other breeds.
The Merino stands at the head of the
wool-producing breeds, and the South
down is considered the best of the NUT
producing breeds for quality of flesh,
though it does not attain as large size as
the Shropshires or Oxfords.
