Astounding Rascality.

- >A0S~1sAAsseAAso AS~O~~AASJs
The county attorney of Pipestone
county has been put in possession OF an
astounding bundle of evidence, showing
conclusively that two men deliberately
drove another, a neighboring farmer,
into a mad-house in order to gain pos
session Of his farm. The victim is Frank
Erhardt, and the evidence shows that
the two fiends incarnate worked on him
more than IS months before they landed
him, raving maniac, in the. state asy-
lum at st. Peter Erhardt owned a
farm in particularly favorable loca-
ton near Chandler, and the two villains
In the case attempted, by the use of
confederates, to prove to the old man
that his farm was haunted. At the
dead of night on several occasions they
called him from his bed to show him ap.
partitions prowling about the buildings
on the farm. Erhardt was almost
driven crazy by these alleged 'spooks.
but they did not have the effect of d1iv-
ing him from the farm, the end desired
BY the covetous rascals engineering the
heartless affair. Failing in their efforts,
the pair of desperadoes attempted to
poison Erhardt and his sister by putting
arsenic in the milk and meal. The milk
tasted bitter and was thrown out.
Bread made from the meal made the
victims sick, but it did not contain poi
son enough to kill. Erhardt was made
aware of the conspiracy against him
and brooded over the matter till he
went stark mad, and was taken to St.
Peter. The conspirat ,rs against Err
hardt have flown, but the sheriff knows
where they are, and will apprehend
them as soon as the county attorney is
ready to act.

The Worlds Fair.

The Minnesota board of worlds fair
managers has completed it's inspection
of the state building at Chicago and has
found it eminently satisfactory. With
the exception of being repainted later
in the season and being ornamented in
the interior. and exterior to greater
extent than at present, the building
will remain as it now is. In the interior
decoration wheat will prevail. A new
feature of the Minnesota exhibit which
has just been announced will consist of
three tepees of Chippewas in their ma
tive dress and living as nearly as posi-
BILE like the aboriginees when first dis
covered by the whites. These Indians
will be engaged in work peculiar to
them, ornament making, and every eff
fort will be made to show them as they
were in their savage state. n. i.
Latham, having in charge the horti.
cultural exhibit of the state, has gone
to Chicago with carload of material,
and will begin at once putting it in
place.

SERIOUS FACTS ABOUT BREAD

which Houseksspors Sho1ld Earnestly
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 to
children, have produced fatal results,
while cases of heartburn, indigestion,
gripping constipation, dyspepsia, and va
rious kindred gastric troubles from irri-
by the continuous use of food prepared
with the alum or alum-phosphate pow
ders, are familiar in the practice of
every physician.
It 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 alum 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 &C.
companied by a gift, or are disposed
of under some scheme. The alum pow
der costs but a few cents pound to
make, and is often sold at 20 or. Is cents
pound. If some present is given with
it, the price may be 80. 40 or so cents q
pound.
It 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 a
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 unwholesomeness is
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 Q. S. Government, and by the Of
fetal 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, ightest,
sweetest and most delicious food, which
will keep moist and fresh longer, and
that can be eaten with immunity hot.
or cold, sta,o or fresh. and also that
owing to its greater strength it is more
economical than others.
These facts should incline consumers
to turn a deaf ear to all opportunities
to buy the inferior powders. IT 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.
