Don't Blame the Cook

II a baking powder is uniform in strength,
so that the same quantity will always do the same
work, can know how use it. and uni
formly good light food cannot be produced with it.
All baking powders except Royal, because
improperly compounded and made from inferior
materials, lose their strength quickly when the can
is opened for At subsequent bakings there
will be noticed falling off in strength The food
is heavy, and the flour, eggs and butter wasted.
1t is always the case that the consumer suffers
in pocket, if not in health by accepting any sub
stitutc for the Royal Baking Powder. The Royal
is the embodiment of all the excellence that ii is
possible to attain in absolutely pure powder.
1t is always strictly reliable 1t is not only more
economical because of its greater strength. but
will retain its full leavening power, which no
other powder WILL until used, and make more
wholesome food.

WAS IT SUICIDE?
Manuel Gonzales Nearly Loses Ills
 Life at Tempe.


 Manuel Gonzales, somewhat the worse for liquor, started to walk the bridge early yesterday morning, but the walk was too long and he stopped in the middle and sat down. The next thing he knew he was struggling in the water for he had fallen off and was making desperate efforts to save his lie.
 Luckily for him some Mexicans were standing on the bridge and they at once set out to rescue their countryman. The water where he fell was not deep and the current not as strong, as it was nearer the east shore and 30 they did not have much trouble in effecting a rescue.
 When Gonzales reached the shore he was perfectly sober, as the water seemed to have sobered him up.
 Other rumors state that it was an at tempt at suicide, but the rumors could not be confirmed and no reason for such an act could in any way be &C., counted for.

SPAIN EXCITED
Over Reported Landing of French
 Troops in San Domingo.

Over Reported Landing of French
 Troops in San Domingo.
 MADRID, March 23.-[ [AssociatedPressl The cabinet met in extraordinary ses- sion today in consequence of report that French troops had landed in San Domingo. The question of American and French interference in San Domingo continues to cause much excitement in Spanish political circles. The ministry has, it is understood, determined to re- sent any aggression either on the part of the United States or France in San Domingo.
 The report that the French had landed troops there does not appear to have been confirmed. There are, how ever, important differences in the min istry upon various questions of finance, colonies and navy in regard to the sub ject of retrenchment in these several departments, each minister insisting that the others should be compelled to retrench materially. The government is in a straitened financial condition and the necessity for economy is obvi- ous, but as the various ministers are re- luctant to yield, ministerial crisis is imminent

W. J. Chamberlain & Co.'s Den yer Financial Circular dated June : says: Reports of trade from all quarters are not particularly encour- aging, but at the same time they indicate that the commercial com. munity at large has so far prepared itself for a storm, that any serious danger is likely to be averted. Con servatism is everywhere the rule Banks are restricting their loans, and foreign bankers are insisting on gold notes Most of the staples have declined, with wheat having touched the exceptionally low price or sixty-six cents per bushel. which promptly brought about a reaction through heavy export orders. The clearing house returns from fifty cities for all May show an increase of five per cent over May of 1892 but the record of last week showed it to be eleven per cent less than the same week last year. The gold shipments reached S6,50O,0O0, and impaired the reserve so that it now stands at only $95,O00OO0. An en- couraging feature of the Govern ment report, however, is the receipt of S3l, 100000 in May, 1892. The May disbursements this year were only $30,S72,000. against 80, 755,0O0 for May 1892.

Writing of the cholera prospect the president cf the New York Academy of Medicine. Dr. D. B. St John RooSa, says in the Engineer ing Magazine; We have good rea. son to fear that this disease will re- appear m New York Harbor during the summer of 1893. But if is quite possible for the city of New York and the other parts of this country to be so protected, and for those coming here with the disease to be so isolated, as to prevent an epidemic in the United States.
 As to the prevention of cholera, much has been said for and against strenuous maratime quarantine. The more ignorant the nation. the more intense and annoying the Quaran- tine. whether maritime or on the land frontier. During the epidemic of 1885 in Italy and the soutb ,.f France, the Italians outdid them selves in ridiculous and inefficient and obnoxious rules, to prevent per. fectly we'll people iron going from one country to the other. England perhaps lays less stress upon mara time quarantine than any other na- ton. but England is not a depot for immigration, and filthy immigrants from all parts of the world do not come to her shores as they do to those of the United States. Those who visit England come only as actual travellers or emigrants in transitu. If the Russian immi- grants who, having passed a few days in Hamburg, without any cleansing and other sanitary means, were put upon ships which they infected, had been allowed free access to New York city last summer and autumn, they certainly would Tn few days so polluted water-sources that cholera would have become epidemic.
 We must, therefore, have uuar- antine regulations in this country. But if a ship comes to New York Harbor, even during the visitation of cholera, from a non-infected port, and has passed seven days without the occurrence of any case. it would be folly to retain the passen- gers on the ship. They should be allowed to land as soon as the facts about their condition are ascertain ed. If cholera has actually b, oken out upon a ship, the healthy pas sengers should certainly not be re- tained upon it when the port is reached. They should be put on shore m comfortable quarters, and after a very short quarantine. if the disease does not break out among them, they should be releas- ed. If quarantine must be prac- ticed. 1t must be civilized and hu- mane quarantine, instead of imi- tating the Turks and Italians.
 If the quarantine regulations are honestly maintained, with skill and scientific knowledge, there need be nc extension of the disease from our harbor. Perhaas it will not even be brought there
