W. H. Ziegler, F. Swisher, j. Nc
Roberts and James Swisher composed
the jury. The jury could not agree
upon a verdict. and at n late hour
they recommended that the case be
settled by each party to the suit pay
ing one-half the costs.

THE lLLINOIS LEGISLATURE
Looking After the Alum and Ammonia
Baking Powders.
hicago Inter &c an.

hicago Inter &c an.
A bill for an act entitled IAN Act
to Regulate the Traffic in Baking
Powder" has been introduced in the
legislature at Springfield, by Mr..
Nohe. The bill is intended to pre-
vent the authorizations of baking pow
ders with Ammonia or Alum, impos-
ing proper penalties to enforce the
law, etc. This shows an earnest de-
sire on the part of our representa-
tives to protect the constituents.
The Chicago Tribune referring to
the question of legislation on alum
and ammonia baking powders, says:
1T deals in direct manner with an
evil that must be cut down"
Following is partial list of the
names of the brands sold in this state
that have been examined and found
to contain either ammonia or alum.
Many of the alum and ammonia pow
ders are labeled and advertised as
absolutely pure to mislead the pub
lie.
Calumet Forest City" Chi
cago Yeast" Grants Bon Bon =
Hotel '.Taylor's One Spoon
.Unrivaled, Snow Puff" ''Snow
Ball ''Zipp's Crystal. Climax, >
Monarch Western Prince,
Town Talk" Grown" Van
Zandt's." Milk. Giant.
In addition to the above list there
is Il multitude of brands sold with 4
prize. 1t is safe to re iect all baking
powders sold with prize, as the
tests show they are composed largely
of alum and cost but a few cents per
pound. Also refuse any baking
powder sold at % cents pound, or
less: it Is sure to contain alum.
Surely nothing but their cheapness
could induce the public to experiment
with these impure powders at the
risk of health. Aside from the ques-
ton of health or the wholesomeness
of these condemned powders. and
viewed from the standpoint of econ
omy alone, a pure cream OF tartar
baking powder like DIR. Prices, >
from its greater known strength and
unquestioned purity, will prove more
economical to the user in every way.

Blatne,s N-uspaper Work.

Congressman Boutelle an old and init
mate friend of Mr.. Blaine, recalls distinct
ly the late secretary's early newspaper
work
LAS long ago as 1850" said he, when
Mark II. Dunnell, recently congressman
from Minnesota, was member of the
Maine state senate, he had occasion to make
q speech that was fully reported in the
state papers. Two accounts in particular,
those in the kennebec Journal and the Au-
gusta age, pleased him. Upon investigat-
ing to ascertain who had written them, he
discovered that the report in The \ ye had
been prepared by Melville w. Fuller, now
chief justice of the United States supreme
court, and that in The Journal by James
q. Blaine, then active young newspaper
man. Mr. Blaine and Judge Fuller used
frequently to compare notes on these old
newspaper experiences and enjoyed many
pleasant chats together on the subject
Mr.. Blaine was very fond of his news
paper work." continued Mr.. Boutelle. An
old partner of his, Mr.. John l. Stevens,
who is now United States minister to Ha-
waii, WAS associated with him in managing
the Ecnnebec Journal for several years.
Mr.. Blaine was editorial writer of great
force, and believe Mr.. Stevens attended
to the general management of the paper.
Mr.. Blaine was one of the fastest writers
ever knew and he would frequently choose
a subject a short time before the paper
went to press and dash off brilliant edi
torial in few minutes
Mr.. Blaine was very fond of going into
newspaper offices in his earlier years. and
whenever he had anything to communicate
would usually write the matter himself ]
have often seen him sit down at a report
er's desk and examine the paraphernalia
upon it with great interest. He had an in
innate knowledge of newspaper needs and

give out important pieces of news, owing
to the slackness Of routine matters on that
