Science In Bread Making.

AT the recent annual meeting of the Amer-
can Chemical Society, held in Washington,
ID. c., the question of the value of carbonate
OF ammonia as leavening agent in bread, or
as used in baking powders, came up for dis
cussion, in which Prof. Barker of the univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, and president Of the
society; DR.. Richardson, late of the United
States Department of Agriculture in Washing
ton; DIR. VIM. McMurtrie, late Prot of
Chemistry in the University of Illinois; DIR. E.
H. Barley, late Chemist of the BROOKLYN, N.
Y, Board of Health, and Prof. of Chemistry
of the Long Island College, and others, took
part.
The concensus of opinion was overwhelm-
ing in favor of the employment of ammonia.
1t was stated as a fact that ammonia rendere d
the gluten of the -four 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 of ammonia and its
complete expulsion from the bread in the
process of baking, it 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 experiments
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 tarter and soda,
is not only Of uniformly better color and tex
ture, but product more wholesome, because
the ammonia serves to neutralize any organic
or Tactic acids present in the -four
An appeal has been filed in the United
States circuit court of appeals, in which
the United States government asks that
the decree of the United States circuit
court of Oregon in an action brought
against the Dalles Military Road Compa-
ny, the Eastern Oregon Land Company,
and others, be set aside. The court found
that the certificate OF the governor of Ore
gon, declaring the road TO have been con-
structed according to specifications, was
made in good faith and without fraud or
misrepresentation on the part of anyone.
1t found, too, that other defendants, pur-
chasers Of lands from Dalles Military
Road Company, did so without fraud or
misrepresentation, and it therefore dis
missed the bill of complaint against
them. In appealing, the government
claims that the finding of the court that
the certificate of the governor of Oregon,
declaring the road to have been fully con-
structed, was made out fully and without
representation, is contrary to the ad1nIs-
slons made in the defendants plea, and
against the evidence and contrary to law.
1t also claims that the finding that the
other defendants purchased the land in
good faith was contrary to law end the
evidence offered. The government, there
fore, asks that the decree be set aside and
that the land revert to the United oiates
for the non-fulfillment OF the contract for
the road.

The State Board OF Health.

DIR. Eggleson, editor of the Peoria
Herald, is exposing through his paper
the corrupt practices of the state board
of health. The doctor was formerly
connected with the board and is GER
tainly well acquainted with the matters
of which he writes. DIR. Rauch, who as
member or secretary of the board con-
trolled its operations for years, has been
more than suspected of corrupt prac-
tices. The legislature in 1899 attempted
to force Fifer to get rid of him and re-
fused an appropriation to the board un-
til it was agreed that Rauch should re.
sign as member of the board. He did
resign, but was Immediately appointed
secretary of the board, and continued in
it's control. Democrats and Republicans
alike all over the state have been dis.
gusted and alarmed by the methods Of
Rauch, and it has always been a mys.
terry why the administration hung on to
him. He is accused of giving and re.
ceiving bribes and of arbitrary and cor.
rupt use of the power placed in his
hands, and DIR. Eggleson certainly
proves these charges to be true. Rauch
was forced out of Office by the Demo
cratic house in 1891, but he is still sup
posed to rule the board through his sue
cesSor, DIR. Reilly.

aDuse. IL there is anything wrong and
anybody knows it complaint should be
made. The same is true OF the mistreat-
ment of children by parents or guard
ians.
''There is another feature which is
vastly more important, and that is this:
The state assumes the work of education.
Certain persons, generally adherents of
churches, do not wish to avail them
selves of this privilege of the state
schools. The state acquiesces and is thus
relieved of great financial burden.
Now then, suppose the state, tracking
the children into the private schools, de-
mands that teaching in these schools
shall be done thus and so and that the
parochial or private school must in fact
be made a public school. II that is done
the state becomes at once partner or
participant in the parochial- school SyS-
tenn. If the state goes that far the par
ochial school authorities are justified in
asking for money out of the state fund
to help sustain the school, and certainly
for enough to pay for those particular
features which the state required to be
added to the parochial school curricu-
lum. This, of course, could not be
granted"
''Why could it not be done?'
''Simply because the constitution for
lids the recognition of any church by
the state. For the state of Illinois to in
vestigate the parochial schools and then
have the inspector nail up over the door,
Inspected and accepted as a school by
the state of Illinois, would be to recog-
nize the authority and power behind the
school-a church. or religion. Control
of parochial schools is the first step to-
ward the recognition of church. But
it would be much less practicable to give
money out of the treasures of the state
to schools of sectarian churches. Such
proceeding would be stopped by the
courts"
''What about the teaching of foreign
languages i'll the parochial schools?'
There is not a parochial school in all
Illinois but gives instruction in the Eng
lish language. All the children are
taught English. The idea that the par
ochial schools can overthrow the English
language is absurd and nobody believes
1t. Among the Germans it is an amiable
fad to have the children speak the parent
tongue. If it is to be the purpose of the
state to prevent the teaching of foreign
language to the children the state officers
will have to go into the family circle,
where, in many instances, the English
language is not allowed to be spoken in
order that the children may be forced tC
speak the parents tongue. This and the
teaching of the foreign language as the
language of instruction in the parochial
schools indicate simply that the parents
and teachers realize that without such
instruction the children cannot be made
to learn and use the language of the par.
ents."

Real view. of the Great Crow-Enter.

A comparatively small percentage of
the immigration to the United States
comes from free trade England. and even
that is made up largely from the classes
not protected by the tariff ,and who can
not be regarded as seeking here the BEN
efits of high protectionism. Skilled oper-
atives in the iron and steel and cotton
and woolen industries find little induce
ment to leave their employment in free
trade England to seek higher wages in
the United States. On full inquiry they
find the promise of high wages delusive
and that the supposed advantage is off.
set by the increased cost of living. II
any such disproportion between the con-
dition of English and American opera
tives in protected industries as is claimed
by ultra protectionists existed it could
not fail to cause flood of immigration
of skilled operatives from England to the

SaIuting by the Way.

All the sacred sites of the east are points
of pilgrimage. Even the least significant
of them receive large numbers of visitors
during the season, when men and women
from all parts of the world make their
toilsome way to attend the Easter services
in Jerusalem or to battle in the Jordan.
Some curious characters are found in such
gatherings. The author of the volume en-
titled I'm Scripture Lands says that be

had come all the way from Morocco on
foot.
Although Mohammed was their prophet.
they were travelling according to the or
ders given by Jesus to the "other seventy"
when he "sent them two and two before
his face into every city and place, whittier
he himself would come" in so far as to
carry neither purse nor scrip nor shoes"
and according to the further injunction, to
''cat such things as are set before you"
a little experience with them convinced
me that the manners of the road had prob
ably not changed here since the seventy"
were commanded to salute no man by
the way" for a wayside salute required
considerable time. Thus it ran between
