LONDON, Sept. Ga dispatch to the
Times from Shanghai to-day says war
operations are making slow progress. 1t
is reported the Japanese have threatened
TO Withdraw their promise not to molest
Shanghai if the Kiangnan arsenal here is
not closed. This threat is supposed TO be
the indirect motive which may possibly
provoke the interference of Great Bri
tain, as the arsenal is pronounced an inn
portant establishment.
The Chinese fleet is about to concen-
trate at Wei Hal Wei. The reports of
Japanese plan to attack the Notifications
by sea and land have caused the Chinese
to strengthen the position with an ap-
proach to panic. Heavy guns have
been sent forward from the Tien-Tsin
and Nankin arsenals, and the ammu-
milton for them will be sent to the coast
shortly.
STRONG ANTI-FOREIGN FEELING.
VICTORIA (B. c., Sept. 6.-The steam
ship Empress OF Japan has arrived from
Iokohama and Hongkong. Captain j.
Z. Coke, prominent Sealer, was one OF
the passengers. He has been in Japan
since February, and says that i'll Yoko-
hama and ID kodate everything is quiet
and orderly. He says that foreigners
who go to Japan expecting TO join the
army or navy or secure other positions
will surely be disappointed. There is a
strong anti-foreign feeling, and the peo-
pie Will have no outsiders in any position.
This rule prevails in all branches OF the
service, especially in the hospital and
ambulance corps, which are very thor
ough.
Captain Carew, Master of the San Fran
cisco sealer Walberg, died at Hakodate
just before the Empress OF Japan sailed.
The Yokohama correspondent OF the
Associated Press, under date of August
18th, writes: The Japanese troops in
Corea now number upwards of $4,000.
The total force was on August 18th placed
under Lieutenant-Ge Nosu, Chief Of
the Fifth Army Corps, who served with
distinction in the Satsuma war of The re-
bellion in 1877, and is said to have shown
great tactical skill in the grand army

The Japanese Government has pro-
mulgated decree constituting prize

NATURAL FOOD SOCIETY.

Great Future Predicted for Califor-
MIA Fruits and Nuts.
w. S. Manning, Fellow Of the Royal
Botanic Society, England, is in the city.
representing the Natural Food Society of
London and New York. Natural food
means fruit and nuts, and this society
claims to be guided by science rather
than sentiment and urges as a first step
that less bread and other starch foods be
used and fresh, tully ripe, sweet fruit be
! taken instead. Bread instead of being
the staff of life, is to be henceforth de-
nouDced as the source OF nearly all our
physical, moral and social ills. With
fulI diet upon fruit, with its 50 to 80 per
cent. OF pureSt water, we need no other
liquids whatever. So the word drink is
to be eXpunged from our dictionary, say
| these iruitarianS.
MIR. Manning has been lecturing at the
| Chicago ana the Midwinter Fairs, and
wherever an audience can be found he is
! willing to go and tell OF the good times
coming tor California, when the world
will once again live on the ldenic fare of
nuts and fruit. Last nighta short address
was given by this pioneer of pure food at
the Christian Church, Eighth street, at
which he explained the origin OF this last
| phase OF food reform.
Inc NeEelaIIdilS, MI. manning claims,
are all wrong in being merely guided by
sentiment to abstain from food that once
had life; while the Natural Food Society
urges that meat should be used Till one is
soundly saved from starch, and then as
nuts become digestlble, the fish, flesh and
fowl may be given up with advantage in
their favor. Dr.. Densmore of New York.
the President of the society, is especially
anxious to expose the evils of the cereal
and other starch foods Bread contains
far too much OF the lime salts, and hence
Is the chief cause of kidney troubles
chalky gOut, ossihcation of the tissues
and premature decrepitude, while the
starch entails constant strain on the in
testinal canal TO get it converted into fruit
sugar, the identical element which is
found ready made in such abundance in
all California fruit.
AS this new physical gospel has been
discussed before the Board OF Horticult-
ure and the Academy of Science San
Francisco, and no opposition was given
to these eXpoSitions of the teachings OF
natural law, we may congratulate the
truit-growers that there is indeed good
time coming for California when fruits
are used as the main food and drinks of
the people.
MIR. Manning claims he has had no need
of medicine since adopting a fruit diet;
that he can walk twenty or thirty miles
daily and needs no liquids in the hottest
weather. His diet for the last twenty
| four hours was, torsupper last night, six
apples and dozen nectarines and april
cots; for breakfast, two dozen sweet ap-
pies and a dozen walnuts; for luncheon
a handful of pine nuts, pound OF peaches
and few grapes.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER.
Pay the Price of the

Royal Baking Powder is shown by actual
chemical tests absolutely pure and 27 per cent.
greater in strength than any other brand. s
Many grocery stores have. recently been
stocked with second-class brands of baking
powder, which are urged upon consumers at the
price of the high-cost, frst-class Royal.
These powders cost from 8 to 80 cents
pound less than the Royal, besides being of II
per cent less strength. If they are forced upon
you, see that you are charged correspondingly
lower price for them.
