"As the result of my tests I find the Royal
Baking Powder superior to all the others in every
respect 1t is entirely free from all adulteration
and unwhoesome impurity, and in baking it
gives off greater volume of leavening gas than
any other powder. It is therefore not only the
purest but also the strongest powder with which
am acquainted.

Americas Oldest Lady Orator Visits Red

Americas oldest Lady Orator Visits Red
wood Fails
We are to be favored with avisit this
week from the venerable Mrs. Van
Cleve, of Minneapolis, the oldest, and
ia many respects the most accomp-
lished lady orator of this country.
Mrs. VanCleve was born between sew
enty and eighty years ago at Fort
Smelling, where her father was for a
time commanding officer. Fort Shell
ing was erected for the purpose of reg
ulating the affairs of the Indians, and
the population of the whole surround
ing country at that time was purely
Indian. The first white baby therefore
which honored Minnesota for birth
place, was the lady we are to have in
our midst on Saturday.
Bye and bye, Minnesota's first baby
was married to Colonel Van Cleve, a
distinguished officer in the army
Col. VanCleve had retired from active
duty some years before the Civil War
broke out in 1861, but when he saw
the need of it, he offered his services
once more to the government, and was
readily accepted. By his skill and
bravery during the four years of that
war he attained to high military
rank, and retired as Brigadier General.
After his second retirement he and his
wife settled down in Minneapolis, and
gave themselves up entirely to church
work and works of benevolence. When
Gen. VanCleye died some years ago.
his wife, instead of giving up work
seemed as if she meant to do the wol
herself which they both had done
hitherto. At all sorts of ladies' meet
ings, at meetings of Synod and meet
ings of Presbytery, Mrs. VanCleve is g
we'll known speaker, and powerful
pleader of the cause she likes best tc
advocate, the cause of missions. It il
questionable if there is in the world al
the present moment another publ,
speaker, except Gladstone, who retains
intact, at so advanced an age, all tn,
mental faculties, and all the vigor o
youth. Every one who reads tn,

AS showing the healthy demand for
lands near Lamberton and Sanborn,
q. w. Shelton told the writer at the
time of the campfire, that for a quar-
ter-section for which he paid 5000 a
little over year ago, he had lately
been offered $1,000. AS Mr.. Shelton
had harvested 900 bushels of wheat
from the land last year, it would APP
pear that, had he sold at $1,000, he
would have realized nearly 100 per
cent on his investment But Mr.. Skel-
ton refused this tempting offer, be-
cause he thought the land was worth
more to him to keep. This is only one
of many evidences that might be pro-
duced in almost every township in
Redwood county, showing the strong
upward tendency of real estate prices
The Gazette ventures the prophecy
that within five years from this time,
good farm lands in the vicinity of our
large towns will sell for from thirty to
fifty dollars per acre as easily as they
now do at from ten to twenty-five.

WASHINGTON. April 2l.-The letter from
General Boynton, in which he cited specific
instances in which the very senators now
most loudly clamoring for secrecy had
placed at his disposal documents from the
confidential files, and furnished him ex-
ecutive news, naturally excited wide atten-
ton at the Capitol. 1t may be supple
mented by an incident which occurred on
the very day that the vote which deposed
Mr.. Young was taken. A certain western
senator left the executive session, and in
the lobby outside gave to a correspondent
the proceedings which had occurred inside
the closed doors with reference to nomi-
nation in which he was interested.

When he had concluded the relation of
the details, he said: "Now, if there is moth

Young"
WHAT" asked the correspondent, and
the exclamation was echoed by another
correspondent who was in the group.
You certainly do not intend to declare
Young guilty of betraying secrets after
what you have just done."
"Wel," said the senator, "the case is Just

A Criminal Trickster who Fooled the
spanish Police.
MADRID, April 21.-It is learned that
Munoz, who has been considered the arch
conspirator of the anarchists in Spain, Is a
trickster and humbug, who has been hood
winking the police while pretending to act
as their tool. The recent so-called plot to
blow up the cortes. it seemed, was arranged
by the police through Munoz for the pur.
pose Of entrapping Delboche, Ferrecia, and
the other anarchists who are now under
arrest for placing the bombs in the build
ings.
Worst Kind of q Plotter.
Munoz represented to the authorities
. that these men were dangerous characters,
always plotting mischief, and that it
would be well to lead them into some
nefarious scLeme. get them to hopelessly
compromise themselves. and thus obtain
an excuse for putting them out of harms
way. He procured the booms, induced
Delboche and the others to place them
where they were found by the police, and
then told the police where the guilty
could be found.
The Police Learn Something.
The police have now come to the con-
clusion that the prisoners were harmless
fellows so long as left alone, and that but
for Munozk urgings they would never
have attempted the crime of which they
are accused. Ii is even suspected that
they did not realize the seriousness of
what was beng done, and perhaps did not
know the nature of the weapons which
MunoZ had placed in their hands.
