A concern trying to introduce new
baking powder has adopted methods to
bring it before the public that are liable
to get its members, as well as its en-
ployes, into trouble. One of their
schemes Is to send women from house to
house to defame other brands and falsely
charge that they are adulterated. This
charge being untrue, the women ere per-
forming an illegal act for which they are
liable to arrest and punishment. The
character of baking powder that would
be sold by men who, for mercenary pur-
poses, will employ women to do such
dishonorable and dangerous work as this.
can be imagined.
There is more serious difficulty, how
ever, in view. These agents personally
and i'll advertisements assure the public
that all the ingredients of this new pow
der are printed upon the label of each
can, and sell it upon this guarantee. Some
purchasers have learned from the Gov
ernment reports that this powder has in
its composition other things, notably
lime and sulphuric acid. It is not pure
powder, and being sold by means of false
statements and Misrepresentation, its
agents are already in trouble A false
label upon any package makes the sale of

The Flesh Dried as Hard as Sole

A dispatch from Selma says: DIR. e. E.
Brown, Coroner of Fresno County. has
returned with the body of the dried man
found about forty-fve miles west of Sell
ma by J. H. Hall and Robert ELLINGTON.
The body is just what Hall said it was.
only the mummitication has been more
perfect than the imagination could picture
from verbal description. The flesh has
dried as hard as sole leather and is as
dark as the Egyptian mummy Of old.
The only sloughing about the body is
about the stomach, the skin on the hands.
legs, arms and face never having been
broken. The eyes are dried up, but the
features are so natural that one knowing
the man in life could easily recognize
him now. The corpse had been living
out in the weather at least month or six
weeks, and it is so dried and preserved
that it would keep in it's present condi-
ton for years.
The man had on pair of overalls. a
striped flannel shirt. black necktie and
heavy boots. He wore a beard white on
his chin, three inches long, and closely
cropped on his checks. He had an extra
pair, OF overalls,-a gray flannel shirt,
black neckhe and cardigan jacket. A
white cotton hat, wide brimmed, was
found near him, and blank book and
a carpenters rule were found in his
pocket. In the book the only writing
was Pat Riley, care of E. 3. Low, Cali
enta." The book appeared to have been
dipped in grease, showing that the suns
rays had powerful effect on the mans
body.

FOR REDUCED FRE1aHTs
The Southern Pacific Endeavors 10 Ac-
commodate the Fruit shippers.


- EMarysville Appeal, October 2othl
J, c. Stubbs, Vice-President of the
southern Pacific Company, wired &. H.
Baird, agent in this city, yesterday, that
he had succeeded in carrying through
the Transcontinental Association meas
ure providing for car rate of 81 on
canned goods and 81 40 ON dried fruits.
Ihls Is to transcontinental points and is
subject to the acceptance of the lines en-
braced within the Western Freight AS
sociation, Southwestern Railway and
steamship Association, the Central Traffic
and the Trunk Line Associations.
THE Southern Pacific Company said
a railroad man to an Appeat reporter yes
terday, lis doing everything possible to
induce these associations to make the re-
ductions which the .fYuit and canned
goods men are asking, but as it depends
upon the actions of q number of traffic
associations there is material element of
uncertainty. 1t will, however, be no
fault of the Southern Pacific if those
shippers fail to get the benefit of what
MIR. Stubbs has repeatedly urged upon
the members of the Eastern traffic organ
iZations."

Bulldozing Tactics.

LEVthIng Bee, Uctober 2Uth.
1t seems to be more than probable that
the newly-organized Merchants Traffic
Association of San Francisco has been
formed, not SO much for the purpose OF
encouraging a rival overland road, as to
induce or compel the Southern Pacific
Company to give San Francisco advan-
tages in freight rates and facilities which
will enable her to hold the interior towns
in her grasp as she did years ago. San
Francisco, with all her advantages, is the
least enterprising city in the State, and,
IN consequence, has seen her great trade
gradually wrested from her by the enter
prising merchants of the interior. She
has before tried to stem the tide through
bulldoZing tactics, and it is not improb-
able that the present movement is in the
same direction.
