The isotherm Of tho part of southern
Germany herein mentioned, and it's tenn
perature, does not differ very materially
from those of central and northern New
Mexico, except that our climate is much
drier, as we'll known, and it is the alleged
ability of this new plant to Withstand
prolonged drouth which has especially at
tracted my attention. !.
It certainly deserves a careful trial ia
our so-called dry zone, and if, as there ap-
pears good reason to believe, it can be
successfully acclimated in this territory,
its introduction, even if it should show
here only one half of the valuable pro-
perties ascribed to it, may yet result in
clothing many localities in our territory
with an expanse of verdant pastures and
green meadows, forming Pleasant con-
trast to the sere and yellow appearance
of our mesas and Tomas, and affording an
important accession to the meagre food
animals now find on these.

THEILIINOIS LEGTSLA1'UitE
Ae0lsing After the Alum ami Ammo
min Baking Powders.
Chicago Inter-O Ocean.)

A bill for an act, entitled San Act to
Regulate the Traffic in Baking Powder"
has been introduced in the legislature at
Springfield, by Mr.. Nohe. The bill is in
tended to prevent the adulteration of
baking powders with Ammonia or Alum,
imposing proper penalties to enforce the
law, etc. This shows an earnest desire
on the part of our representatives to pro-
tect their constituents.
The Chicago Tribune, referring to the
question Of legislature on Alum and Am
monia baking powders, says: cit 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 Powders are
labeled and advertised as 'absoluly pure"
to mislead the public.
"Calumet," "Grant's Bon Bon," "Hotel,"
"Taylor's One Spoon" "Chicago Yeast"
"Climax," "Monalch," "Mokaska," "Man-
haitian" "K. G" "Loyal," Forest City.
In addition to the above list there is n
multitude of brands sold with prize. It
is safe to reject all baking powders sold
with prize, as the tests show they are
composed largely of alum and costs but a
few cents per pound. Also refuse any
baking powder sold at twenty-five cents
pound, or less; it is sure TO contain alum.
Surely nothing but their chapness
could induce the public to experiment
with these impure powders at the risk of
health. Aside from the question of health
or the wholesomeness of these condemned
powders, and viewed from the standpoint
of economy alone, pure grape cream of
tartar baking powder like "Dr. Price's,"
from its greater known strength and un-
questionable purity, will prove more
economical to the user in every way.

Treasury Gold,

WASHINGTON, June 21.-Gradually and
in the absence of export, the gold in the
treasury.is increasing. To-day it is $685.
7l9,546, and increase since Saturday OF
more than 100000, and gain of nearly
$5,OOO,OO0 during the past three weeks
The fact that American grain ia now
finding foreign markets is given as the
reason for the cessation of gold exports
and the fact that the west Is receiving
large quantities of money from the east
accounts in large measure for the build
ing up of treasury gold, as gold is being
deposited in New York in exchange for
currency delivered by the government st
western points.

An Opinion.

BERLIN, June 21.-Herr Liebkecht, the
we'll known Social Democrat leader, in an
interview upon the army bill and other
matters pertaining to Thursday elections
admitted the government would get a ma
iority of the members of the reichstag to
vote for the army bill by effecting COM
promise with certain class of the politi-
cal factions. This compromise, he de-
clared, would consist of increasing the
numeral strength of the army 10000 and
reducing the period of service to two
years.

New BEDFORD, June 20.-Lizzie Borden
was acquitted yesterday of the murder Of
her father and step-mother. Friends
crowded around her, weeping and shower
ing their congratulations upon her, and
she walked out of the court room not only
free woman, but heroine. Thus closed
one of the most remarkable trials of the
age. The evidence for the prosecution
was very weak and contradictory, and
each colored his own to cast q rosy hue
upon himself. The entire community is
satisfied with the verdict.

THE CHOCTAw DIFFICULTY.

A delegation of the Jones Faction has q
Fearing Before Secretary smith.
There has been war in the Choctaw nation
and United States troops have been ordered to
the scene Of conflict. The troops are still there
but there has been no demonstration lately and
now it seems that arbitration is to
be resorted to. A delegation representing one
of the warning factions is now in the city and
this morning they had an interview with the
Secretary of the Interior. They represent the
Jones faction and consist of some of the
leading men. The treasurer of the nation
is here and is the speaker of the Choc-
taw House and others. They made a statement
OF the case to the secretary. They repre-
sent the governor of the nation, Mr.. Jones. and
they claim that the entire trouble grows out
of the refusal of the other faction to recognize
the law of the nation. Several members OF
the other faction. they claim. have been con-
vlcted under the laws of various crimes and the
effort made by Gov. Jones to enforce the law
and to carry ont the sentences imposed has been
met with resistance on the part of these men.
All that Gov. Jones wishes the United States
government to do is TO allow him to carry out
the law. He claims that he can do this if he is
not interfered with. He argues that it is not
case of revolt against the government. but that
it is an attempt to set at defiance the law.
The case of the other side is before the sec
retary ard tomorrow be will give the Jones
delegation another hearing. The point for tine
Secretary to decide is whether il is a case where
the government can interfere.

THE POPE AND THE KAISER.
Significance of the Long Conversation he
tween Them Yesterday.

ROME. April 24-The official circle here
understands that during the interview Of yes-
terday between Pope Leo and 1he German
emperor the pope and the emperor discussed
questions relating TO the position o. the Roman
Catholic Church in Germany, and especially
the attitude Of the members Of the center or
clerical party toward the policy.
The emperor's friendly conversation and his
valuable gift of a snuff box bearing his por-
trait surrounded with diamonds TO Cardinal
Ledochowski. prefect of the propaganda, are
much commented upon. Cardinal Ledo-
chowski represents the Vatican party
which favors the triple alliance, as opposed
to the policy of Cardinal Rampelli, papsl
secretary Of state, which is French in its
tendencies. The meeting is also regarded ss
marking fresh step toward the Cancellation of
the Prussians and Poles.
The celebration of the silver wedding of
King Humbert and Queen Margherita Was con-
tinued today. King Humbert and the German
emperor rode, accompanied by q brilliant cav
aicade Of the royal princes and of their STAFF

people that thronged the streets. Queen Mar
gherita and the German empress, accompanied
by the other royal personages present at the
celebration. rode in eleven court carriages
along the Corso to the Piazza D'Arme 20 re-
view the procession. Nearly the whole popuia-
tion of Rome massed in the streets in the
vicinity of the Piazza.
In the military review King Humbert and
the German emperor rode along the ranks, in
spiriting the troops. After the inspection the
troops marched past the Italian king and his
guests, and after the march the king and the
emperor headed . long military procession to
the Quirinal

There are no new Developments today in the
case Of Mr.. Max Judd, the new consul general

In case it should prove true that tine Austrian
government has refused to grant exeauator to
Mr.. Judd he cannot perform the duties of
the Office Of consul general and
the President will either have to
make another appointment or leave
the Office vacant. A diplomatic officer
said today that every government
exercises the right to refuse to transact busi-

in the case of Mr.. Juud Austria is merely doing
what the United States would have the un-
questioned right to do in the event Austria
should accredit to this country man who
was personally Objectionable to the author
tiles.
Mr.. Judd, who is now in st. Louis. is quoted
as saying that if the Austrian government
offers any objection to his appointment he will
relieve the President from all embarrassment
by rendering his resignation. In sucha event
he would probably get an appointment equally
as good" in some other country.
