There is no reputable citizen of Penn

the correspondence of the late City
Treasurer Bardsley, Auditor General
McCamant and the former State Treas
urer, and more recently Cashier Livsev,

dignation. IeSteiday'S Ledger.

The Massachusetts Republican
platform declares that "the removal
of duties on sugar has proved a great
boon to the cosntry." True, and it
has proved a great object lesson as
well. The people have learned that
the tariff is tax paid by the con-
sumer, and they will help themselves
to other "boons" by untaxing other of
their necessaries.-Ne York. World.

Edward Mcmillan. who murdered his
wife at Sturmersville last February, and
who was found guilty of murder in the
first degree at the last term of court, was
refused new trial by Judge Woodward
and sentenced to death, The murder
was most horriable one. Mcmillan
returned to his home on Sunday after
noon overcome with liquor. His wife
was sick and had also been drinking.
Mcmillan beat her, and, when she was
insensible, heated Il long iron poker until
it was red-hot, and then thrust it into
her body in several places. Notsatisfed
with this, he forced redhot Goals into her
flesh. He was captured Immediately
after the murder.

A Pure Baking Powder.

A baking powder that can be de-
pended upon to be free from lime
and alum Is desideratum in these
days Of adulterated food. So far as
can be judged from the official re-
ports, the "Royar' seems to be the
only one yet found by chemical analy-
sis to be entirely without one or the
other of these substances, and abso-
lutely pure. This, it is shown, re-
suits from the exclusive use by its
manufacturers Of cream of tartar
specially refined and prepared by pat
emit process which totally remove the
tartrate of lime and other impurities.
The cost Of this chemically pure
cream of tartar is much greater than
any other, and it is used in no baking
powder except the "Royal," the manu-
fBcturers Of which control the patents
under which it is refined.
DR.. Edward G. Love, formerly ana
lyUcal chemist for the u. s. Govern
ment. who made the analysis for the
New York State Board of Health in
their investigation of baking powders
and whose intimate knowledge Of the
ingredients of all those sold in this
market enables him to speak author
itively, says Of the purity, whole
someness, and superior quality of the
"Royal:"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder
co imposed Of pure and wholesome in
gredlents. It is a cream OF tartar
powder, and does not contain either
alum or phosphates, or other injurious
gu bstance."
Prof. Loves tests, and recent official
tests by both the United States and
Canadian Governments, show the
Royal Baking Powder to be superior
to all others in strength and levening
power. It IS not only the most eco.
nomical in use, but makes the purest,
finest favored and most wholesome
food.

A Raise In Individual Taxes.

The State Board of Equalization
has raised the taxes OF Individual tax
payers OF Storey county in large
amounts, and there is much kicking
In consequence. Those whose prop
erty has been raised have been mott
fed that the State Board will be in
session here next Tuesday to hear all
complaints. The wailing that will
then ensue will be terrific. There
seems to be large-sized "nigger in
the fence."1Virginia Chronicle.
The people of Elko county are in
the same boat. Ninety-seven OF our
citizens are now cursing the Legisla-
ture that bowed to the corporations
OF the State and placed this law on
the statute cooks. The motto of the
State Board seems to have been Let
the railroads escape and ciuch the
people. Will there ever be day of
reckoning? ..a.. d.

Safe Crackers.

Yesterday morning when I. N.
Bakeless opened bis store on Virginia
street he discovered that it had been
entered some time during the night
and the safe broken open and robbed
OF about $3.50 in money and $4,000 IN
notes and other securities. The
burglars effected an entrance through
q window in the rear OF the building,
and drilled a hole 10 the safe door
near the lock. A bolt was inserted in
the hole, with which the lock wac
broken. The tools used by the bur
glars, with the exception Of the drill,
had doubtless been taken from eome
Blacksmith shop, and were left In the
store by the burglars. Some OF the
stolen funds belonged to Washington
Lodge No. %, A. o. u. W.. and had

Too Good TO be True,

Hon; M. p. Foley returned last
night from SHIT Lake and brings the
glad tidings that Salt Lake parties
have succeeded in placing two-thirds
OF the railroad bonds in France to
build road west from that city to
Deep Creek, this State, distance of
200 miles, and that a local company
would build the road the coming year.
Mr. Foley says the general feeling
among bankers, merchants and bus
ness men generally in that city is that
the time has come to send the steel
rails across Nevada and on to the
western sea coast at an early day, and
that they all express themselves as
Icing certain OF its construction

BUFFALO, March 1t.-A large and
disastrous fire oeeurr d yesterday af-
ternoon at the corner Of Court and
Pearl streets, in the new six story build
ing occupied as clothing house by
Forbes dG Co, on the northwest corner.
Half an hour after the fire began the
walls of the building fell with crash,
and it was thought that several persons
had been buried IN the debris 1t was
found, however, that all had escaped.
One man was slightly hurt. The fire
spread to the Dental complny's build-
ing and Crowley Bros. undertaking
store, and they were soon one mass of
flame. The walls fell in shortly after
ward. After burning two hours the fire
was got under control and its extent
was comprised within the buildings
named. Loss, about 100000.

PTTsBURe, March 1t.-There is great
excitement around Elizabeth, twenty
miles up the Monongahela river, over
the discovery of petroleum. The
pioneer well is being worked as a
"niystery." The derrick has been
boarded up, and no one is allowed to
enter. The community is overrun with
oil operators and land scalpers who are
anxious to get territory, and farmers
are demanding exorbitant bonuses for
the right to drill. If it is really new

greatly, for he is the owner of large

to be good for 200 barrels day.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, March 1.-THE

is expected to rise at least foot yet
when the water from the upper river
reaches this city. From all low lying
portions Of the city the cry of distress is
heard, and the streets are filled with
wagons loaded with the goods Of those
who are able to move. The less for
tunate are compelled to carry their be-
longings to higher ground and there de-
posit them under shelter.
Fully one thousand houses have been
vacated on account Of the rising waters.
The greater part of those who have
been forced to move were unable to re-
trun to their houses and have taken up
temporary abode among friends and
neighbors. Reports from surrounding
districts show that the creeks are out Of
their banks and great damage has been
done by the washing away of fences,
bridges and inundating the whole fields.
