BODIES IN A BOX.

The Ss..astly Find of Missouri Farmer
While Hunting-Five Dead aud Decom-
posed Bodies Floating In the Missouri
River Furnish an Explanation of the
Mysterious Disappearance of Family
of Emigrants.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo-, March 22.-Compton
Mccoy, a farmer residing a few miles
south of this city, on the Missouri river
banks, was ducking on a sandbar yes
terday afternoon, when he discovered a
large dry-goods box floating with the
current. He fastened the box to the
shore, and, breaking it open, was nearly
overpowered by "a terrible stencil which
arose from the box. An investigation
disclosed that the box was filled with
dead bodies in an advanced state of de-
composition, the remains being so badly
decomposed that Identification was i'm
possible.
Coroner Reynolds made an ivestiga-
ton and found the remains were those
of four men and one woman, and APP
pearances indicate they had been muir
dered, the remains placed in the box
and then set adrift. The community
is in terrible state of excitement.
1t is supposed the remains are those
of a family of emigrants who disap-
peared in mysterious manner from
near Bulo, 40 miles north of this city,
last fall.

LITgHFIELD, ILL.,, March 2a.-The
Planet mill, owned by Kehlor Bros, of
ot. Louis, was burned to the ground
yesterday morning. 1t was the largest
winter wheat flour mill in the world

ground and smashed as though egg
shells The millwright, John Carvi,
was burned to death while attempting

exceed $1,000. The mill was insured
for s250,00O. The total loss, it is be-
lieved, will exceed s700,0OO

NUMBER II.
SERIOUS FACTS ABOUT BREAD
Which Housekeepers Should Earnestly
Consider.

Consider.
A serious danger menaces the health
of the people of this country in the
numerous alum baking powders that
are now being urged upon the public.
There is no question as to the detri-
mental effects of these powders upon the
system. Every Board of Health, every
physician, will tell you Of the unwhole-
some qualities they add to the food.
Some countries have absolutely prohib-
tied the sale of bread containing alum.
Even small doses of alum, given 10
children, have produced fatal results,
while cases of heartburn, indigestion,
gripping constipation, dyspepsia, and va
rious kindred gastric troubles from irri-
tation of the mucous membrane, caused
by the continuous use of food prepared
| with the alum or alum-phosphate pow
ders, are familiar in the practice of
every physician.
1t is not possible that any prudent
housewife, any loving mother, will
knowingly use an article of food that
will injure the health of her household,
or perhaps cause the death of her chill
dren.
How shall the dangerous alam pow
ders be distinguished? And how shall
the danger to health from their use be
| avoided?
Generally, alum powders may be
| known from the price at which they are
sold, or from the fact that they are ac-
compaEied by gift, or are disposed
of under some scheme. The alum pow
der costs but few cents q pound to
| make, and is often sold at 20 or 25 cents
pound. If some present is given with
it, the price may be 80, 40 or so cents a
pound.
1t is impossible to name all the alum
powders in the market, but any baking
powder sold at a low price, or advertised
as costing only half as much as cream
of tartar powders, or accompanied by u
present, or disposed of under any
scheme, is of this class, detrimental to
health, and to be avoided.
But the easy, safe, and certain pro-
lection Of our bread, biscuit and cake
from all danger Of Embellishments ID
in the use Of the Royal Baking Powder
only. This powder is mentioned be.
cause of the innumerable reports in its
favor by high medical authorities, by
| the U. S. Government, and by the of
| ticial chemists and Boards of Health
which leave no doubt as to its entire
| freedom from alum, lime and ammonia
its absolute purity and wholesomeness.
While its use is thus a safeguard
against the poisonous alum powders it
is satisfactory at the same time to know
that it makes the whitest, hghtest,
sweetest and most delicious food which
will keep moist and fresh longer, and
that can be eaten with immunity hot
or cold, stale or fresh, and also that
| owing to its greater strength 1T Is more
economical than others.
These facts should incline consumers
| to turn deaf ear to all opportunities
| to buy the inferior powders. II grocer
urges the sale of the cheap, impure,
| alum brands, it should be borne in
mind that it is because he can make
more profit on them. The wise house
keeper will decline in all cases to take
them.
Take no chances through using q doubt
fE article sohere so important q matter al
| the health or life Of dear ones is at Stdke.

Another Serious Explosion at Rome-A
Bomb Let Loose at the Entrance Of the
Marigold Palace.
ROME, March 21.--A bomb exploded
last evening at the entrance of the
Marigold palace. The explosion was
heard distin city in the middle of the
city, although the palace is in the
suburbs. The houses throughout the
neighborhood were shaken by the
shock, and for 200 yards in every direc-
ton windows were smashed and plas-
ter was. shaken from ceilings. In the
palace every window was smashed,
everything was thrown from the
shelves and much of the furniture was
broken. The stones at the entrance
were thrown out of place and deep
hole was driven in the ground. Hum
dreds of persons ran from houses in
the neighborhood and gathered at the
entrance A company of soldiers
cleared the streets. 1t was found that
no one had been injured, though the
damage to the property had been con-
siderable No arrests have been made,
and no evidence as to the identity of
the man who placed the bomb has been
obtained.

Satisfactory Tests OF Facsimile Telegraph
ing-Whatever is Written at One End
of the Line is Reproduced at the Other.
CHICAGO, March ga number of
newspaper men and invited guests
witnessed an exhibition of Prof Elisha
Gray's telautograph in the Home in
surance building yesterday afternoon.
The telautograph, as its name implies,
enables one to transmit instantaneously
by wire a facsimile of his handwrit-
ing to distance. An ordinary pen or
pencil is employed. As it moves pen
at the other end of the line moves and
forms the words and letters in precisely
the same way. Whatever is written
at one end of the line is reproduced in
facsimile at the other end. The tests
yesterday were entirely satisfactory,
many of them being made by the
guests. Writing, sketches, musical no-
tation and stenographic characters
were transmitted with equal fidelity.
The tests were made through artificial
resistances representing many hum
dred miles of wire. 1t is expected that
the telautograph will be generally
used as an adjunct to the telephone
and for business purposes generally
where private wires are employed.

LONDON. March 22-The federation
of cotton spinners held meeting yes
terday, and discussed the offer of the
Amalgamated Association of Operative
Cotton Spinners to declare off forthwith
the strike that has now lasted nearly
five months, if the master spinners
would agree not to reduce wages more
than ~ per cent
The discussion was protracted one,
but the meeting broke up without ac-
cepting the operatives offer, number
of the masters insisting that their
hands should not be allowed to return
to work except at the 5 per cent. reduc-
tion first proposed, which precipitated
the strike or lockout.

Refuses to Abandon All Hope.

New YORK, March 21.-Mr. FL. Matt
land Kersey, the New York agent o.
the White Star line, to which the Ma
ronic belongs, still has hopes that the
Naronic has not gone down, and says:
'The finding of the boats reported by
the steamship Coventry does not in any
way prove that the Naronic is lost. A
big sea may have carried these boats
overheard while the Naronic, perhaps
with her machinery disa bled, was la.
boring against the storm"
This opinion, however, is hardly borne
out by the facts as cabled yesterday
from Bremen, which show that the
boats had been occupied and navigated.
1t is quite probable that some vesse!
has picked up the occupants of these
boats, and they will eventually be
heard from and the fate of the Naronic
known.
