boy met with serious accident last Satur-
day. The little fellow was playing in q
shed and accidentally knocked down a
drawing knife that hung on nail against
the wall, and in jumping down from box
on which he stood, struck the bottom of
his foot on the edge of the knife, cutting
it to the bone.
Mr.. F. L. Mackey, mayor of Norman, In
dian Territory, and a prominent merchant
of that place, and who is son-in-law to
Geo. L. Robinson, passed Washburn last
Tuesday for Coal Harbor, where his wife
has been visiting her parents this summer.
Mrs Mackey had left here Tuesday morn
ing for Bismarck, but met her husband on
the road and returned with him to Coal
Harbor that day.
It is now evident that the crop yield of
North Dakota this year will in nowise
reach that of 1891. In many parts of the
state the acreage is much less, and for
some reason the grain which is now in a
thriving condition does not promise such
an abundant harvest, and especially is this
the case with late sown fields. But short
crops are apt to give better prices, SO the
farmer may not lose much after all.
DR.. F. H. Chattell has given up his po-
sition at Ft. Berthold and he and his wife
have taken their departure for their old
home at Long Branch, N. j. Our old ty-
biographical friend, II. s. Wood, conveyed
the doctor and his household goods to
Bismarck last Monday, and Mrs. Chattell
followed in the stage on Tuesday. During
their stay in this section, DR.. and Mrs.
Chattell made many friends who will re-
gret their leaving us.
Jas. Bartron, ST., who has been in Bis
marck for the past week or so, returned
to Washburn Wednesday. He brought
with him full-blooded French Coach
stallion, which he purchased of Gerald
Pierce. The horse is bay in color, weighs
about 1000 lbs, and is years old. In
the certificate accompanying him his name
is Girondin, and he was imported from
France in 1887 by Savage g. Farnum of
Crosse Isle, Mich. He is trim-built ami
NAL and fine driver.
The republican county convention was
held here last Saturday, and John Satter
lund, J. P. Peterson and Henry H. Rohrer
were elected delegates to the state conven-
tion, and James Heath, Peter Miller and
Isaac Westman were chosen delegates to
attend the judicial district convention to
be held at Mandan on August 9th. The
convention was the most harmonious one
held in the county for years. A strong
resolution endorsing Judge Winchester
was passed by an unanimous vote, and
the delegates were instructed for him.
Rev. F. M. Wood of Fargo, the synodical
missionary of the Presbyterian church,
preached in Washburn last Sunday to a
large audience. His sermon was we'll re-
ceived, and his remarks in administering
the ordinance of baptism and the sacra-
ment we're particularly impressive. From
here he went to Coal Harbor, where there
was also large attendance. He was ac-
companied by Geo. Mckay, who assisted
in the services. Mr.. Wood has visited this
section of country on similar occasions
before, and is therefore not altogether a
stranger to our people, who hope to enjoy
another visit by him at no distant day.

Baking Powder Legislation.
The use of alum and ammonia in
baking powders has been carried to
such an enormous extent by unscru-
pulous manufacturers, anxious either
to swell their profits or to carter to
the demand for cheap goods, regard
less of the stomach of the consumer,
that bills have been introduced during
the past year in the legislatures Of
many states, among which are New
York, Minnesota, Illinois, Georgia,
Florida, etc., requiring such inferior
articles to be distinctly labeled.
Boards of Health and food Commits
sions in many cities and states have
been occupied with the same problem.
and in many instances have published
lists of powders containing alum or
ammonia, so that the public may
avoid them. Following is a partial
list of such powders: Royal, Calumet,
Forest City, Bon Bon, Chicago Yeast,
Snow Ball. Kenton and Pearl.
