The Original Four Hundred.

It is generally thought that the saying
that the only people in New York worth

originated by Ward McAllister, but it
can be feVnd In tho Bible. Acts v, So,

follows, For before these days rose up
Theudas, Boosting himself to be some
body, to whonfa number Of men, about
400, joined themselves, who were slain,
and all, AZ many az obeyed him. were
scattered and brought to nought."
Another verse worth mentioning in
this connection is from ! Samuel xii, q
"And every a that was in distress, and
every one that was in debt, and every
one that was discontented, gathered
themselves unto him. and he became Q

Revival Of English In the Colleges.


From the new Yale catalogue it APP
pears that the authorities there have
awakened to the need Of greater atten-
tion to the study Of English. Beginning
with 1894 the entrance examinations are
to include papers upon certain pieces Of
English literature, selected as well for
their probable attractiveness to the
preparatory student u for their intrinsic
importance" The questions are to be
constructed with the special view Of test
ing the candidates familiarity with the
subject matter, but weight is to be given
to the literary forms Of the papers Of
fered by the applicants. Already in
struction in English has been extended
to the freshman class. This is a field
that has been toe long neglected. and
those who have had anything to do with
the English of students know with what
sad results. Boston Journal.

ST. Paul Pioneer Press: A bill for an
act i'm relation to the manufacture and
sale Of baking powders, to prevent fraud
and preserve the public health has been
introduced. IN the Legislature at st.
Paul. The bill 10 intended to prevent
the adulteration OF baking powders with
Alum or Ammonia, imposing proper
penalties to enforce the law, etc.

part Of our state representatives to pro-
tect their constituents.

three different brands OF Alum baking
powders alone-sold in Minnesota.
Following is q Inst OF the more widely
known brands that DR.. Drew, as well
as other chemists OF high standing
have examined and found to contain
Alum, and some of which contain both
