enthusiasts are dropping in from the North
west Manager John S. Barnes of the
Spokane Club arrived yesterday morning,
accompanied by q number of kindred
spirits.
That the opening game will be a pretty
contest is conceded by those who claim to
know. and the cranks will be given an op-
portunity to decide as to the respective
merits of pitchers Harper and McNabb.
Both are stars and will be called upon to
face an array of untried batsmen May the
best man win, Some time ago it was stated
that McNabb had offered to wager that If
Frisco won the pennant Nick Smith would
not be able to get two hits of him in seven
games.
1t now seems that this statement is in
correct, so far as coming from the pitcher ls
concerned. Some ardent admirer of Ne
Nabb may have offered to put up money on
this proposition, and in the course Of It's
travels 1t came to pass that the statement
was made to appear as coming from tn Q
pitcher when 1t did not. Should a twirler
thus declare himself and afterward be
everlastingly walloped, his sensations would
not be of the most pleasant nature.

A Boy Accidentally Shot Through the Head
by His Mother.
PRESCOTT (AriZ.), Nov. pa fatal shoot
ing accident occurred here at noon to-day,
resulting IN the instant killing of the nine
year-Old boy of Il. n. Palmer, a well-known
mining and mill man of the Pacific Coast.
Mr. Palmer has been employed at a mine
about fifty miles from Prescott, his wife
and son living in Prescott. On Saturday
Mrs. Prescott had trouble with a man and
his wife who occupied rooms in her house,
and fired two shots at the former with a 45-
caliber Colts pistol. To-day she got man
who was working for her to remove the
empty shells and reload two chambers. In
mediately af er doing so she commenced to
oil the pistol when her son stopped down in
front and remarked that the pistol was not
loaded. simultaneously with his doing so
the pistol was discharged, and the ball en-
tered the boys forehead above the right
eye, ranging downward and coming out be-
bind the left ear, scattering his brains on
the floor. 1t is supposed that when Mrs.
Palmer received the pistol after it was
loaded the hammer was raised, and in turn
ing the chamber the revolver was dis
charged. The mother is frenzied with grief
over the sad affair, and officers took the pis-
tol away to prevent her from killing herself.

having no intention to fight anybody are
erroneous, as there is $1,000 uD in a New
York paper since June In behalf of Sullivan

said, had never challenged man in his life

AMMONIA In BAKING POWDER.
Discussion Before the American Chemical

Society.
tChicdgo Tribunal
To the Editor Of The Trtbune:-I have lust
seen he report in your issue OF September 80 Of
the discussion at the Washington meeting Of
the American Chemical Society, August 18TH
relative TO the use OF carbonate OF ammonia In
baking powders.
his report is Incomplete and incorrect In
many particulars, and as the paper which pre-
cipitated the discussion was read by me, and
was based upon my own experiments 1 desire to
make certain corrections In the interest Of the
truth and for the benefit Of the large number of
your readers TO whom The question is one of
great moment.
The paper as read before the society related
that ammonia In baking powder is retained In
the bread by reason OF its affiniiy TO the gluten.
The consensus OF opinion as expressed during
the discussion was against the use OF carbonate
OF ammonia In baking powder with the only ex-
caption OF DIR. McMurtrie, who Is now an en-
pioye OF a baking. powder company which uses
carbonate OF ammonia In its baking powder.
VI me otner parties mentioned as having taken
part In The discussion was Professor DR.. Bar ker
Of tho University OF Pennsylvania, who Is the
President OF the society, and one OF our highest
sutaorities: In answer 10 pleading by Pro-
lessor McMurtrie that only small quantities Of
ammonia were used in baking powders, he
must decline TO be dosed medically without nv
consent when taking my meals"
DIR. L. II: hartley. formerly chemist OF the
Professor
Chemistry at the Long Island College. Ikewise
named, did not, believe. take active part In tbe
discussion, but Is already on record as strongly
opposed to the use Of ammonium Carbonate in
baking powders.
DIR. Richardson volunteered only the question
WHITTIER the -four used In the ex periments was
Of good qualify, of which assured him by stat.
ing that 1t was the best. and the -four used In my
family.
Professor Mallet was not present.
Your article Is misleading, in SO far as it gives
tho impression that ammonia disappears on bak.
Ing. My actual tests agree with those made by
others. showing that ammonia remains IN the
bread. My Investigations simply assign new
cause for Its retention. II. ENDEMANN, PHI. ID.

After the contest the large gathering dis
persed satisfied that Sullivan is as good a

the spectators by his quick hitting powers.
