Science in Bread Making.

At the recent annual meeting of the
American Chemical Society, held in
Washington, ID. C., the question of the
carbonate of ammonia as a leavening
agent in bread, or as used in baking
powders, came up for discussion, in
which Prof. Barker, of the University OF
Pennsylvania, and President of the So
ciety; DR.. Richardson, late of the United
States Department of Agriculture in
Washington; DIR. VIM. McMurtrie, late
Prof. of Chemistry liz the University of
Illinois; DIR. Z. H. BARLEY, late Chem
Health, and Prof. of Chemistry of the
Long Island College, and others, took
part.
The consensus of opinion was over
whelming in favor of the employment
of ammonia. 1t was stated as fact
that ammonia rendered the gluten of
the flour more soluble than the original
gluten, and that the bread in which this
action was produced by carbonate of
ammonia must be more digestible and
hence more healthful, and because of
the extreme volatility of carbonate +
ammonia and complete expulsion from
the bread in the process of baking, 1T is
one of the most useful, most healthful
and most valuable leavening agents
known.
These conclusions are borne out by
the very elaborate and exhaustive eX-
periments made by Prof. j. w. Mallet,
of the University of Virginia, which
show conclusively that bread made
with baking powder in which one per
cent of carbonate of ammonia is used,
in connection with cream of tartar and
soda, is not only uniformly better color
and texture, but-a product more whole
some, because the ammonia serves to
neutTaliZe any organic or Tactic acids
present in the flour.

wave. First Officer Smith was Oh

the big mountain of water and the
next minute everything was floating
on deck. 1 barely saved myself from
being washed overheard. The steer
age steward who was forward was
caught by the wave aud washed the
whole length of the ship, and was
taken out of the steering gear with
his leg broken. The iron door of the

A Family Poisoned.

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 24-The ex-
termination of an entire family, save
one member, by poison, is case that
has been discovered here. One year
ago ThOs. Austin, his wife and five
children lived at 106 Eleventh street.
One by one the children died until
one remained. The father and the
remaining child were reported dying
yesterday. In each case the symp-
toms have been exactly the same. A
slight fever, accompanied by vOmit-
ing and severe pains in the stomach
were the first Indications. Then the
patient grew rapidly worse, and in a
day or two death would ensue In
each casa the regular physician gave
typhoid fever as the cause of death.
Each child which had died had
been insured and the money was paid
by the insurance company immedi-
ately after death. The amount of the
insurance on each ranged from 5000
to $500. The neighbors began to talk
and finally the attending physician
called in a well-kuoWn doctor, d. c..
Smith. DR.. Smith made q diagnosis
and concluded that the cause of the
illness of the father was arsenic.
poisoning. The Coroner will be aske d
to have the remains of the Austin
chi dren eXhumed and an analysis of
the stOmachs made. DR. Smith il
firmly convinced that arsenic has
been used in every case. The mother
is alive and we'll. The insurance
policies were all made out in her
name. She refuses to talk.
