How to Detect Them.
In view of what the Minnesota senate
has done. it is hoped that legislative
bodies in other states will soon take up
the subject of food adulteration. The
subjoined list of baking powders con-
tanning ammonia and alum, compiled
from official reports and published in a
recent number of the Scientific Amerl
can, is given below. 1T deals in di-
rect manner with an evil which must be

commenting on the Scientific American
report. Following is the list of

Helena Policeman Shot.

Word was received in this city yester-
day that Policeman Grogan of Helena
had been shot and probably fatally in
jured Thursday night. The assailant of
the policeman is supposed to have been
the same individual who held up Con-
ductor Richardson Tuesday night and
relieved him of his watch and silver, as
the shooting occurred in the same local
ity and the description tallies with that
given of the highwayman by Mr.. Rich
ardson. Particulars are neagre, but
from information received, it appears
that Policeman Grogan was approach
ing Seventh avenue and Ewing street
when he no ticed man standing in the
recess of a building, and interrogated
him as to what he was doing there.
Receiving no answer and noticing that
the man had both hands in his pockets,
Grogan demanded that he remove them
and deliver up his gun which the police
man rightly conjectured he was at
tempting to conceal. The man appar-
emily complied with the request by turn
ing over one revolver to the officer, and
ct the same time disengaglng his other
hand, in which he also had a gun, began
firing. Four shots were fired, all OF
which took effect in the officers abdo-
men, after which the foot-pad made
his escape. 1t is believed the wounds
of Grogan will prove fatal. The people
of Helena are thoroughly aroused over
this affair, following as it does so closely
upon the. bold hold-ap of Richardson,
and if The policeman's assailant is dis
covered and identified threats are made
that swift and summary justice will be
meted out to him.
