Science in Dread Milking.

At the recent annual meeting OF the
American Chemical Society, held in
Washington, D. c., the question OF the
value OF carbonate OF ammonia as Il
lcavening 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
society: DR.. Richardson, late OF the
United States Department OF Asricul-
ture III Washington; DR.. William Nc
Murtrie,. late professor OF chemistry in
the University OF Illinois; DR.. L. IL.
Barley, late chemist OF the Brooklyn,
N. Y, Board OF Health, and professor Of
chemistry OF the Long Island College,
and others, took part.
The concensus OF opinion was over
whelming in favor OF the employment
OF ammonia. 1t was stated as n fact
that ammonia rendered the gluten OF
the flour more soluble that 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 tho bread in the process OF bak-
ing, 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. ]. W..
AIallct, 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 tar
tar and soda, is not only OF uniformly
better color and texture, but 4 product
moro wholesome. because the ammonia
serves to neutralize any organic or Tactic
acids present in the -four.

but that tho old wretch had sent for
him TO ask his pardon for the cruel
wrong he lad dono him by depriving
him OF his liberty md forcing him to
flee to Canada and England, and pay
the price--thc market price OF himself.
But no; no was mistaken. No such
thought had ever entenld the old
wretch's head. The moment ho rcncllcd

recognized tho old fellow, full OF tho
old pride, gasped:

neither ask nor can accept your par

ever" And he roso and left the room,
and never saw him again.
As he loft one OF the old mans daugh.
tcrs who was also very sick and expect.
ing to die, summoned Mr.. Douglass to
her bedside. He went kindly and sat
down by her, and took rer thin hands
in his strong friendly grasp. 10, Mr..

SlR:-l find paragraph concerning
a recent magnanimous action OF Fred
Douglass going the rounds OF thepapers,
and the most essential statement in it,
and the one which, does Mr.. Douglass
the greatest credit, is true. Ihave it
from my daughter, whoisalso employed
in the agricultural department, and I
know that it is true, that Douglass pro-
cured an appointment for tho daughter
OF the man who owned him Us slave.
But it is an error that Mr.. Douglass
was disposed OF at auction. He ran
away, and after earning the money him
sell bought himself and paid his old
master his price. This had from his
own lips, and am g lad to knowthat ho

and correct it Ii my memory is at fault.
He and i stumpcd Tor Garfield twelve
years ago, and were together for weeks
in 1880, and he told me the whole story

anyone to hear that story from his elo-
quent lips and ever forget a single de-
tail. n
Never shall I forget how his story Of
his last meeting with his master i'm
pressed me. 1t thrilled mo with all the
solemn and pathetic interest thatat-

saints OF old. Itwould make a fit sub

fifteen years ago his old master lay DIV.

and see him: He could not die in peace
until no had seen his old slave. With
that kind and forsiying spirit which al
ways characterized Frederick Douglass,
he FASTENED to the bedside OF his old
slave.owner. He said he had no thought

Between the state and Federal Author
ities-Dr. Jenkins and Secretary Foster
Can't Agree.
New YORK, Sept. f2.-The apparent
unanimity and cooperation between
the state and federal authorities which
existed Friday have been broken off,
and in the face of the dread epidemic
there is clash of authority, and a sud-
den cessation of friendliness between
DR.. Jenkins and Secretary Foster.
Secretary Foster said Saturday night
that DIR. Jenkins had visited Sandy
Hook in company with himself, DR..
Hamilton, DIR. Balch and other officials,
and agreed that it was admirably fitted
up for the purpose. He had now, how
ever changed front, and evinced sudden
hostility to all that the government has
offered.
Secretary Foster says that DIR. Jen-
kins has refused the medical assistance
of the marine service rendered him, and
refuses any federal aid, saying he is
amply able to cope with the emergency
without any assistance from the gener-
al government.
President Wilson, of the health board
of the city of New York, when told of
Secretary Fosters charges of bad faith
on the part of DIR. Jenkins, said: 81 can
hardly believe that DIR. Jenkins would
take such position, and it would
seem to be very unwise to reject any
proffer IN the face of so great an emer-
gency.
In the meantime the government is
going ahead with the work at Sandy
Hook.
