FOOT BALL CONTEST.
One Of The Most Exciting Games
Ever Witnessed In The South
A Draw.

In typical foot bail weather yesterday
afternoon. the Mission Athletic. and a
scratch eleven from the San AutOnios and
High Schools, faced each other. The at
tendance of spectators was very large.
and they were rewarded by seeing game
full of exciting incidents, which never
tagged. the interest being sustained from
the blowing of the whistle until the call
of time. Every good play was heartily
cheered, the goal keeping of Lane of the
High School, coming III for perfect
ovation on several occasions. while in the
neld. Black OF the San AntOniOS. was
undoubtedly the favorite of the vast
crowd. The game was called at 3:f5 hv
Referee Newman. The ball, from the
pick Off, travelled all over the field
fOr about ten minutes, when the play
gradually settled down in the Missions
end of the field. Ca2ell had to save a good
shot. Another good chance was saved by
Becker. who tackled Russell while in the
act Of shooting about ten yards from
goal. From the goal kick. the bail was
passed 10 Phillips who was well down
field, and backed Mcdonald. They pass,
ed the backs. and gave Lane d hot shot.
but he got it, and again the play was
open. first towards one goal and then the
other, until near half time. when the
Missions goal underwent regular
siege Luck playing was a prominent
part in preventing score. one good
shot by WurZbaCh went out of reach Of
CaZeIl. and would have registered, had
not back used his hands. but the referee
did not see the infringement, and
the goa was not allowed. Another visit
to Lane found that young custodian Oh

the Missions forwards were very good
Half time found the ball about mid field
The second half opened with SenSa-
tiona! run by the Missions forwards, who
closed around their opponents goal and
sent shot after shot into the goal, but to
no purpose. The goal keeper was evil

his goal. he reached ont and listed the
Dall out of danger and the crowd yelled
themselves hOarSe." The ball now Wis
tied the other end and several narrow
escapes occurred, until the ball went bye
From the goal kick, the ball was returned
TO the Missions goal and for
nearly twenty minutes the leather was
all around their goal. At this point the
play occasionally got little more forcibIe
than scientific, and when one of the play-
erS so far forgot himself as to square up
to one Of the High School players, the
spectators expressed their disapprobation
In very decided manner. 1t looked odd
on the persistent efforts of the picked"
being rewarded with goal, but time was
called with the ball in the field.
Captain WurZbach'S team was anxious
TO play an extra half hour to try and de-
eide the game, but the Missions would not
agree, consequently the game ended
draw, no goals being scored.
The teams lined up as follows:

Housekeepers family realize tn.
danger Of an indiscriminate use of the
numerous baking powders nowadays
found upon every hand, and which are
urged upon consumers with such per-
sistency by pcddlers and many grocers
on ccoun of the big profits made ia
their sale. Most OF these powders are
made from sharp and ~caustic acids and
alkalies which burn and infiame the
~alimentary organs and cause indiges-
ton, heartburn, diarrhnal diseases.
etc. sulphuric acid, caustic potash,
burnt alum, all are used as gas-produc-
ing agents in such baking powders.
Most ho~usekeepcrs are aware Of the
painful effects produced when these
chemicals are applied to the external
flesh. How much more acute must be
their action upon the delicate internal
membranes! Yet INSCRIPTIONS manu-
facturers do not hesitate To use them.
because they make a very low-cost
powder. nor TO urge the use of their
powders SO made, by all kinds of allur.
ing advertisements and false repre-
sensations. All the ~low-priccd or SO.
called cheap baking powders. and all
powders sold with a gift or prize, be-
long to this class.
Baking powders made from chemical
" pure cream of tartar and bi-carbon-
ate Of soda are among the most useful
Of modern culinary devices They not
only make the preparation of finer and
more delicious cookery possible, but
they have added to the digestibility
and wholesomeness Of our food. But
baking powders must be composed of
such pure and wholesome ingredients
or they must be taboced entirely.
DIR. Elson. Commissioner of Health
of New York. in an article in the doc
tor of Hygiene indicates that the adj
vantages OF a good baking powder and
the exemption from the dangers Of
bad ones in which the harsh and caus-
tic chemicals are used, are to be Sc
cured by the use Of Royal Baking
Powder exclusively, and he recon-
mends this to all consumers. The
Royal" he says, contains nothing but
cream of tartar and soda refined to a
chemical purity. which when combined
under the influence of heat and mois-
ture produce pure c%1rbonic, or leaven-
ing, gas. The two materials used,
cream of tartar and soda, r perfectly
harmless even when eaten, but in this
preparation they are combined in ex-
act compensating weights, SO that
when chemical action begins between
them in the dough they practically dis
appear. the substance of both having
been taken to form carbonic acid gas
Hence it is, he V that the Royal
Baking Powder Is the most perfect OF
all conceivable agents for leavening
purposes.
1t seems almost Incredible that any
manufacturer or dealer should urge
the sale of baking powders containing
injurious chemicals in place of those
of a w%ell-known, pure, and wholesome
character simply for the sake Of a few
cents a pound greater profit: but since
they do, a few words of warning seen
To be necessary.

chased about one hundred and twenty
