The War on Parnell.

A dispatch from London dated tho

Stewart Parnell are distributing all
over Ireland, as we'll as in the Irish
centers of population in England,
handbills containing fac-simile of

Walsh in response to d question from
a priest as to whether the marriage OF
Mr.. Parnell and the former wife OF Mr..
O'Shea has altered the moral aspect
of the situation resulting from the rev.
elatlons in the divorce court. 1t is
said that over 100000 copies of
this handful have been put into cir

ny and the others who lost their lives
in the Park Place disaster was COM
menced today. Mrs. Grain, the owner
of the collapsed building, was repre-
sented by counsel. Acting District at
torney Bedford and assistant District
attorney Townsend were present
to aid Coroner Hamly. Policeman
Lenny, who discovered the fire ana
sent out the first alarm, was the first
witness. It is expected that at least
a hundred persons will be called to
testify before the coroner. The testl-
mony OF the witnesses so far examined
confirm the theory that there was no
explosion; that the building collapsed
from the great weight of presses and
other machinery on thevarious floors.

AMMONIA OR ALUM
Baking Powders.
HOW TO DETECT THEM.

Ammonia and alum are the most
common adulterants used in the manu-
facture of baking powders. The Gov
ernment report shows that large
percentage of the baking powders on
the market contain either one or the
other or both these pernicious drugs.
Ammonia particularly is in very gen.
eral use.
This wholesale use in an article of
daily food, of one of the most injur-
ious poisons is simply criminal. Slow
ammonia poisoning produces diseases
of the stomach and is particularly in.
furious to the complexion. The pres.
ence of ammonia in q baking powder,
however can easily be detected.
TO DETECT AMMONIA.
Mix one heaping teaspoonful OF
baking powder with one teaspoonful
OF water in tin cup; boil thoroughly
for q few moments stir to prevent
burning and if ammonia is present
you can smell it in the rising steam,
or place a can of the suspected pow
der top down on a hot stove for
minute or two then take off the
cover and smell.

TO DETECT ALUM.

Alum powder can be tested by put
ting couple of teaspoonfuls OF the
powder in a glass OF cold water. If no
efferevescence that is bubbling or sim
mering, takes place, condemn the
goods and return them at once

THE FIGHT WAS A FIERCE ONE,


though it only lasted few moments.
Then one OF the masked men placed
the cold muzzle OF a revolver against
his temple, and under pressure of a
hreat against his life, he opened the
safe. The highwaymen took SO, 500
from the strong box. Horses were IN
readiness and. us soon as the robbery
was accomplished, they fled to the
Wet Mountain valley.
They did not disturb the passengers,
evidently not wishing to stay longer
on the ground than the actual neces-
sity OF the occasion demanded.
A posse was summoned by the sher-
iff and left for the scene at once. The
sheriff got together all the men he
could summon on such short notice

LIVELY CHASE AFTER THE BRIGANDs.
Trinidad has been wired for the
blood hounds that have been instru-
mental already in running down sever.
al criminals. They are to be hurried
to the scene on q special train and
put on the trail as soon as possible.
With the efforts being made it is not
thought that the daring robbers can
escape.
COWBOYS TO HUNT DEsPERADoEs.
The news was received at the Union
depot considerably after midnight last
night. The first dispatch received
stated that No. 4 had been held up by
seven masked robbers between mile
posts 1873 and 100, between Cotopaxi
and Reas Creek. 1t stated further that
all the money in the messengers car
had been taken from him as vel! as
the fireman's watch. The second dis.
patch stated that one OF the robbers
was a man possibly about in his 10th
year and who wore very dark stiff
hat and there was another heavily
built man about the same age; one OF
them, however, was q smooth-faced
boy not over twenty years old, and
had on n checked shirt and was in his
shirt sleeves. J. A. Eddy has offered,
it is said, the service ot his cowboy
band of round.ups to hunt the desper-
ADDE'S down.
Pinkerton's detective agency was at
once called upon, and a hackful of men
was soon on hand ready to start with
Detective Kramer, oil the Rio Grande.
A special train was hurriedly put to-
gether, and about 4 o clock this morn
ing they departed for the scene of the
robbery, accompanied by the chiefsur-
geon OF the road.

GRENADIERS GRUMBLING
THE TRIRD BATrAL ON KICK ON
THEIR RATIONS.

The Officer OF the Day Pronounces the
Food Good, and Orders the Men to
Eat It-Thereupon They Throw It Out
OF the Windows.
LONDON, Oct. 2S-Military circles and
the public in general were startled to-day
by the publication in the columns Of Trath
OF the details of another mutinous outbreak
on the part of the Grenadier Guards. Ac.
cordin to Truth this fresh mutiny, "while
not an event OF the first magnitude" is
still Every serious" 1t is safe to add
that ali the military men look upon the
event as being OF most decidedly serious
nature. in view of the three previous acts
OF mutiny, in which the Grenadiers and
Coldstrea1 Guards have been implicated
within about a year and a half.
COMPLAINING OF Poon FOOD.
This last trouble, it appears, is from re-
peated complaints made in regard to the
quantity aud bad quality Of their rations
by the privates Of toe Third battalion OF
the Grensdier Guards. whose colonel,
noninally, is the Duke Of Cambridge. The
Third battalion Of the Grenadier Guards is
now stationed at Windsor, where
their particular duty Is to mount
guard at Windsor castle, and generally to
ornament that handsome old edi6ce. These
Grenadiers are the same men who on April
81 OF the present year, while quartered at
Chelsea and St. Georges barracks, London.
were SO insubordinats that they for some
time positively refused to turn out for pa
rado in full marching order.
THE WHOLE ARMY GRUMBLING.
The whole British army is full Of COM
plants as 10 small pay, excessive drills aud
too rigorous punishments. The immediato
cause of the outbreak was d complaint
made about insufficient and unpalatable
rations, which the men claimed were served
TO them for their meals on Sunday, Oct. H.
These rations, they claim. were especially
bad and caused the smolderlng feeling of
tns lbordinatton to break out into fame.
THE LIEUTENANT PRONOUNCED 1T GOOD.
The privates Of No. 1 company made
formal complaint 30 Lieut.. Cotton, the Of
ticer Of the day, Of the quantity and quality
of the food served out to them. Lieut..
Cotton examined the food complained
Of, and then said that the food
was good. and ordered the Gren-
Rdiers TO eat it. To his dismay the Grena-
diers of company No. went to the win
dows of the mess room and hurled the un,

AN EXPRESS CAR ROBBED.

The Safe Thrown From the Door in

ATcHIsoN, KAN, Oct. 28.-The express
car of the Central Branch railway train
No. 403 was robbed at Leonora just after
midnight this morning. George Garner,
the express messenger, runs from Downes
to Leonora. When the train ar
rives at Leonora he performs
the duties Of brakeman and
helps the crew in switching, the conductor
usually remaining in the express car. When
the train arrived at Leonora this morning
Garner hurried out to help switch the train,
leaving the conductor in the car. AS the
car passed the station the conductor
alighted to transact Some business there and
the car was then left alone. When the train
was ready to proceed on its way
again the express messenger discovered
that the safe was missing. Il is supposed
that while the car was being switched rob-

the Cars Realm Explained.

The Departure of the Teutons from
the Cars Realm Explained.
New York, Oct. 2s.-Among the passen-
gers on board the Majestic to-day was DR..
Walter Kempster, special immigration
commissioner, who has made an exhaustive
investigation of the Russian phase of the
subject. Germans are being expelled from
Russia in great numbers. This
is being done in spite Of the fact
that there has been no ukase issued
ordering the expulsion of Germans. They
are being forced out by system which the
people in this country cauuot understand.
Hitherto small villages have been allowed
to elect their own president for petty
affairs. After the election last fall an order
was issued that hereafter all persons having
been elected to such positions should
before proceeding to enter on
their office kiss the Russian
Christ" All these Germans being
Roman Catholics have naturally declined to
do this. 1t is also dc ne by compelling plans
to be submitted for 81. 900 every time a 500
German church is to be built.
THEIR LANGUAGE RULED OUT.
Then here is another point: The Ger
mans living In Russia have always taught
their children in the Russian language, but
part OF the curriculum mas De@n devoted 10
the German language. There are no public
schools in Russia. 'I may mention by the
way that an order has now bern issued that
hereafter no German should be taught In
the schools. This is method Of persecution.
IL is the same method by which the perse-
cution of the Jews commenced. 1t is
nothing more than religious persecution of
the worst kind. The consequence is that
the Germans, who are wretchedly poor,
are now selling out their small
buildings at any price and leaving Russia
by hundreds. Many are going to the Argen-
tine Republic while Others are coming here

Speaking of the forthcoming report Of the
immigration commission Dr.. Kempster
said: when our report is published it will
be text for every newspaper, a text for
every pulpit in the land, and for every
orator. It will contain material cannot
tell you anything about because official duty
forbids it. We have q mass Of documentary
evidence which was obtained at very con-
