THEY HAVE DYNAMITE.
Strikers Stole Two Thousand
Pounds of Explosives.

Uniontown, Pa, April 6.-It has
just been discovered the strikers
have stolen 2OOO pounds If dyna-
mite from the new reservoir being
constructed on the mountains west
of Dunbar, and great destruction OF
property is expected. The dyns-
mite was stolen while the workmen
on the reservoir were absent, tho
rioters breaking open tho storage
house. The robbery hes caused
great excitement, and many believe
preparations are beirg made for
renewal of hostilities.
President Davis, who is in Jail,
said today he would not withdraw
his call for convention on Satur
day, and urges the board TO report
at the meeting and arrange for a
continuance of the strike. He,
however. condemns the rioting and
says it must be stopped. This
afternoon an ugly feeling Is de
velOping and there are indications
that trouble will broubIe will break

rUE PATIENT WILL RECOV

Houston Post.

the approaching fall elections ant
possibly give a different politlca
complexion to the next congress.
Of course this alarm is not shar
ed by the people who agree with
the position of the president and
who believe that desperate diseases
require heroic treatment. The
Washington News, discussing the
veto, believes the pen must often
times be used like the surgeons
knife, and that in vetoing the seig-
niorage bill Cleveland cut deeply
and skillfully and, perhaps, SO tho
roughly removed the cancer that it
will never grow again. AS to the
patients recovery the News thinks
there is no possible doubt. 1t says:
"Grant in 1874 performed the same
operation. Around the bedside
and sitting up with a very sick
party were all the republican lead
ere. Grant removed the noxious
growth known as the greenback bill
and the leaders tainted. The party,
how, Immediately began to i'm
prove. Hayes that fall carried
Ohio, and that victory led to his SO
lection as president. We look for
a similar result now. There is a
ring of honesty, determination to
preserve the honor of the country
and the stability Of its currency in
Mr.. Cleveland's last veto that will
do more TO restore confidence
among the people and promote bu-
siness than a dozen Wilson's bills.
Every line of the veto is st. ong. 1t
is clear in lts logic and terse and
dignitied in its statements. The
pretense of Bland and his followers
that they favor bipetal'ism is most
thoroughly exposed. Without some
method Of increasing the gold re
serve, the additional coinage of sill
yer would make it impossible to
preserve the parity between the me
tails. Bland knows this and so do
all the silver cranks. Their cry
for bimetallism deceives no one.
1t was heard in this last miserable
bill and properly understood by
Mr.. Cleveland to be nonometal-

THE HIGHEST AWARD.
Royal Baking Powder in Strength and
Value 90 Per Cent. Above Its
Nearest Competitor.


Value 90 Per Cent. Above Its
Nearest Competitor.
The Royal Baking Powder has the
enviable record of having received the
highest award for articles of its class
greatest strength, purest ingredj'
ents, most perfectly combined-wher-
ever exhibited in competition with
others. In the exhibitions of former
years, at the Centennial, at Paris, Vi
emma and at the various State and In
dustrial fairs, where it has been ex-
hibited, judges have invariably award
ed the Royal Baking Powder the high
est honors.
At the recent Worlds Fair the ex-
animation for the baking powder
awards were made by the experts OF
the chemical division of the Agricul-
tural Department at Washington.
The official report OF the tests of the
baking powders which were made by
this department for the specific pur-
pose of ascertaining which was the
best, and which has been made public,
shows the leavening strength of the
Royal to be l60 cubic inches OF carbon
ic gas per ounce of powder Of the
cream Of tartar baking powders cxhib-
tied at the Fair. the next highest in
strength thus tested contained but 1873
cubic inches ofleavening gas, The other
powders gave an average of Ill. The
Royal therefore, was found of 20 per
cent. greater leavening strength than
its nearest competitor, and A per cent.
above the average of all the other
tests. Its superiority in other respects,
however, in the quality of the food it
makes as TO fineness, delicacy and
wholesomeness, could not be measur-
ed by figures.
1t Is these high qualities, known and
appreciated by the women of the
country for so many years, that have
caused the sales of the Royal Baking
Powder, as shown by statistics. to ex-
coed the sales of all other baking pow
ders combined.
