KILLED AT ANACONDA.
Nine Men Fail From an Ascending Cage,
and Are Horribly Mangled.

A frightful accident occurred at the Ana
conda mine at Butte on the 4th inst. At
midnight the engineer gave the signal as
usual for lunch. The last cage was lowered
to the l ,00Ofoot level, where a partial load
was obtained. and then was raised to the
800. At hat level a large number OF men
were waiting to be raised to the surface for
their lunch. and there was a rush. The
cage has an upper and lower deck, and the
rules IRE that only nine men shall be al
lowed on each deck. In this case, however,
the men rowde into the cage, and it is
believed that not less that twenty started
ON the terrible ride to death. All went
well until some point between the o and
loo loot levels. Then James 0'Donnep,
who was on the upper deck. lost his self
possession and fell over the side OF the cage.
He fell between the cage and the wall of the
shaft down to the lower deck of the cage,
where he struck the men crowded there in
such a way as to KIN ock almos all of them
off. Altogether eight men were knocked
from the cage down to the stump, which is
1000 feet below the surface. Two Others
were brought to the surface badly injured,
and one of these died in "a short time. The
bodies brought to the surface were so
mangled as to scarcely recognizable except
by their clothing. In some cases the bodies

A Pure Baking Powder.

A baking powder that can be depended
upon to be free from lime and alum is a de-
sideratum in these days of adulterated
food. So far as can be judged from the
official reports, the Royal" seems to be
the only one yet found by chemical analy-
ses to be entirely without one or the other
of these substances, and actually pure.
This, it is shown, results from the exclus-
i've use by its manufacturers of cream of
tartar specially refined and prepared by
patent processes which totally emove the
tartrate of lime and other impurities. The
cost OF this chemically pure cream of tar
tar is much greater than any other, and it
is used in no baking powder except the
Royal" the manufacturers of which CON
troll the patents under which it is refined.
DIR. Edward q. Love, formerly analytical
chemist for the U. S. government, who
made the analyses for the New York state
board of health in their investigation of
baking powders, and whoseintimate knowl-
edge OF the ingredients of all those sold in
this market enables him to speak authori-
tatively, says of the purity, wholesome
ness, and superior quality of the Royal"
81 find the Royal Baking Powder com
posed OF pure and wholesome ingredients.
1t is a cream OF tartar powder, and does
not contain either alum or phosphates, or
other injurious substance"
Prof. Loves tests, and the recent official
tests by both the United States and Cana
dian governments, show the Royal Baking
Powder to be superior to all others in
strength and leavening power. 1t is not
only the most economical in use, but
makes the purest, finest favored and most
wholesome food.
