causing "A great deal Of discussion at
the present moment, AZ II Is revealed
that alum is being used AS "A substitute
for cream Of tartar In baking powders.
story Il told that very large per-
centage Of the baking powders sold on
the market contain either alum or am
monia, and many Of them contain both
these pernicious drugs. Much timely
alarm IL felt at the wholesale use Of
alum In bread biscuit and pastry. To
young children, growing girls, persons
Of weakly frame, alum bread eaten
morning, noon and evening II the most
harmful. II II the small quantities
taken at every meal that do the mis-
chief Alum h cheap, costing but two
or three cents pound, while cream Of
tartar costs thirty cents, and the high
| price Of cream Of tartar has led cheap
baking powder ~ be made Of alum. If
the reader wants to know Of the corro-
sive qualities Of alum let him touch a
| piece TO his tongue then reflect how IL
acts on the tender, delicate coats Of the

Seized AT OUNALASKA
Oscar Holm, of the Poacher
Challenge, Returns to New
Whatcom
Story of the Seizure and Con-
hscation of the Sealing
Schooner
Captain Ridderbjelke Still Held
at Sitka For Poaching in
Bering Sea

Oscar Holm, who sailed from here in
the schooner Challenge on a sealing
expedition, and has long been supposed
TO be lost, returned from Tacoma on
Sunday last. He came down from
Sitka on the City Of Topeka on her last
trip, and has a very interesting story
or his adventures 10 tell. Captain Rid
derbjelke, whose family live in the
York addition, and who sailed as master
Of the schooner, Is still in Jail at Sitlza,
where he will be for some time, but Is
expected TO return here az soon a. re-
leased.
Mr. Holm, who was part owner Of
the schooner, sailed in her AZ the Dusi-
ness man Of the expedition, and relates
the following facts Of the seizure Of the
sealer at Ounalaska:
"Our crew had deserted and we
shipped "A crew Of British sealers from a
British Columbia vessel and made a
fairly successful cruise through the sea.
On our return we secreted all the skins
we had taken and ran snto Ounalaska
for water and provisions. Here the
sailors reported TO the custom authori-
ties the true character Of the business
In which we were engaged, and our
vessel was seized and detained. The
crew were all placed under arrest on
the 18th Of January, but in the absence
Of u Jail were allowed to sleep aboard
the vessel. We remained under the
charge of the authorities until April
lS, when the mail boat arrived and we
were sent TO 5itka for trial. The trip
consumed eleven days, and on our ar
rival we were convicted of unlawful
sealing within the Bering sea. The
crew received a sentence of thirty days
In Jail, while the captain received
ninety days. We were well treated
while in Jail, and for good behavior the
term Of our imprisonment was reduced
five days, and upon being released we
took the first boat down.
"We had on our previous trip cap
tured fOrty-two seal otter, which sold
for 500 each, and l37 seal skins, which
are worth $40 each. These skins had
been safely disposed Of, and on the trip
during hich we were captured the only
skins we had secured were the few
which we secreted on the islands be.
fore going into Ounalaska. The loca.
ton Of these was reported 10 the Gus.
toms authorities by the same men who
betrayed the schooner, and they will bc
sold with the vessel which has alreany
been condemned"

It is just possible that you were too
busy during the holidays TO think about
jewelry. II that was the case, we can
give you a hint that will be Of service to
you. Many of the daintiest little gems
included in our holiday display were
virtually lost sight of in the hustle and

will make no mistake If you come and
look at them now that you have little

After the celebrated Winsted bull case
was ended ON Friday the bull was deco
rated with ribbons and flags and led
through Main street. Upon the upper
part of the bulls appendage the animal
had handsome bouquet made of white
ribbons; his horns We're garlanded with
yellow ribbons, around his body was a
surcingle, and each of his sides was
ornamented with an American flag. He
was gaudy looking bovine, and his ap-
pearance drew plenty of attention from
the crowd of people on the streets.
He is small animal, not worth at the
outside over twelve dollars-he was sold
a few months since for ten dollars-but
this lawsuit, occupying nearly a week
before q jury, with about sixty witnesses
on both sides, has brought his total cost
up to about $50O-that is, reckoning the
costs on both sides, including lawyers
fees. The man who lost the suit not
only loses the bull, but as one dollar was
given to the plaintiff with the bull, the
