Stampedes OF Mining DAYS.

There have been many stampedes in
Montana within the last thirty years
not stampedes of horses and cattle,
but of men. One ofthe worst stampedes
that ever took place in Montana was
to Sun River in the spring of 1866.
That was one of the coolest springs
ever experienced by white men in
Montana. A terrific blizzard set in
shortly after the stampede fairly be-
gan for Sun River. No one knew
what had been discovered or whether
anything at all, but rumor got
abroad that rich diggings had been
found, and nearly every man who
could rustic IA small grub stake and
cayusc started for the supposed new
gold fields. At that day the country
to the north was not inhabited, and
the sutferIngs endured by the
stampeders were terrible MANY were
frozen in the pltiless storm, few lost
their lives, and to this day few old
timers are living III the State minus
fingers and toes from that fearful
trip.
But no one seemed to know then nor
does any one now know exactly how
the great Sun River stampede started.

Nearly Four Months In DOIdrum.

city, and the news of her safety has
Just reached the owners.
The ship left Victoria, British Col
umbia, early in December last, for
London with large cargo of wheat,
and nothing WAS heard Of her until
June %, when she WAS sighted by the
steamer Calico, flying signals telling
that she was short of food. She WAS
supplied by the steamer and Capt.
Wilton brought to New York news of
the safety to the underwriters, who
were demanding heavy premiums for
rCinsuring the vessel and cargo.
1t was learned that the ship had
made fine run down the Pacific coast
and around the Horn, but when near

one of the dreaded Gains that prevail
in that latitude. For three months
she remained within distance of
half mile from where she first struck
the calm, and during that time there
was not wind enough to fill even the
lightest of her saia Finally small
current, probably made 10y storm
many miles away, appeared and served
to send her slowly ont of the locality,
which threatened at one time to be-
come place of death for all on board.
On this current the ship drifted for
almost another month. Then II wei
come wind carried her back into the
paths of navigation.
When the Galilco was encountered
the water supply of the Edward
O'Brien was exhausted, food WAS al
most down to the last ration, aud in Il
few more hours the men on board
would have been beyond help. After
being supplied with food and water
the ship proceeded on her way to
London. - Philadelphia Record.

But the germs of the greater part of
the germ diseases that is, of the infec-
tlous and contagious diseases, will de-
velop or increase in number without
being in the body of human being,
provided always you give them the
proper conditions These conditions
are to be found in dough which is be-
ing raised with yeast. rhev are
warmth, moisture and the organic
matter of the flour on which the germs
after certain changes, feed.
1t is necessary to remember at this
point that yeast Is germ growth, and
when introduced into mixture of glu-
oose or starch, in the presence of
warmth and moisture sets up fer
mentation. II the mixture be a starrhy
dough the yeast first changes portion
OF the starch into glucose aud then de-
composes the glucose by changing it
into two new substances, viz, carbonic
acid gas and alcohol.
Now the gluten, which is also con-
stituent of dough and moist starch.
affords, with the latter, an excellent
indus for the development of germs of
disease as well as for the Yeast germs.
The germs of cholera, as of typhoid
fever, would, if introduced into dough,
find very favorable conditions for their
growth
do not wish to 'posc' rs an alarm
lst, nor am l willing to say there is
very much chance of the germs of
typhus and of cholera reaching the
stomachs Of the people who eat bread
which has been raised with yeast But
have not the slightest cause to doubt
that other diseases have been and will
be carried about in the bread.
l have met journeymen bakers, suf-
terlng from cutaneOus diseases, work
ing the dough in the bread trough
with naked hands and arms. | have
no reason to suppose bakers are less
liable to cutaneous diseases than any
other men, and know, ~ every house
wife knows, yeast-raised bread must be
worked long time. This is an ex-
ceedingly Objectionable thing from the
standpoint of Il physician for the
reason that the germs of disease which
are in the air and dust and on stair
ways and straps in street cars, are
most often collected on the hands
Any person who has ever kneaded
dough understands the way in which
the dough cleans the hands. This
means that any germs which may have
found lodging place on the hands of
the baker before he makes up his
batch of bread are sure to find their
way into the dough, and once there, to
find all the conditions necessary for
subdivision and growth. This is
equivalent to saying that we must rely
ON heat to kill these germs, because it

Is worth a few words. The introduc-
ton OF the yeast into the moist dough
and the addition of heat when the pan
Is placed near the fire produces an
enormous growth of the Yeast fungi
the yeast germ in other words.
These fungi effect II destructive fer
mentatiou of II portion of the starchy
matter OF the flour one of the most
valuable nutrient clements in the -four.
The fermentation produces carbonic
acid gas, and this, having it's origin in
every little particle of the starch
which Is itself everywhere in the -four,
pushes aside the PARTICLES OF the dough
to give itself room. This is what is
called raising the bread.
1t needs but II glance to see that it
is, IN its effects on the dough, purely
mechanical. The dough, which was
before close-grained mass. il now
full OF little holes, and when cooked
IN this condition is what we ordinarily
call light. This porous quality of
bread enables the stomach to rapidly
and easily digest it, for the gastric
juices quickly soak into and attack it
from all sides The fermentation OF
the dough, however, uses up portion
of the nutrient elements of the loaf.

struction and without the "kneading"
process, which fills the dough with

period during which the raising pro-
cess goes on, the gain in food and the
gain in the avoidance of the germs is
exceedingly plain.
But while We can easily see the
dangers which attend the use Of Yeast
1t is certain that the veslculsting effect
produced by it on the dough is to the
last degree perfect 1t is apparent
that If we are to substitute any other
system of bread making we must have
one which will give us, first, mechanical
results equally rs good, that is, that
will produce minute bubbles of
carbonic acid gas throughout the mass
OF dough. Now it is in no way diff
cult to produce carbonic acid gas
chemically, but when we are working
at bread We must use such chemicals
as are perfectly healthful. Fortunately
these are not hard to find
The evils which attend the yeast
made bread are obviated by the use of
properly made, pure and wholesome
baking powder in lea of yeast. Bak.
ing powders are composed of All acid
and an alkali which, if properly COM
bined, should when they unite at once
destroy themselves and produce car
bonlc acid gas. A good baking pow
der does its work while the loaf is in
the oven, and having done it, disap-
