Royal Baking Powder In Strength and

The Royal Baking Powder has the
enviable record OF having received the

most perfectly combined wherevercx
hiblted in competition with others. In
the exhibitions of former years, at the
Centennial, at Paris, Vienna and at the
various State and Industrial fairs,
where it has been exhibited judges
have invariably awarded the Royal
Baking Powder the highest honors.
At the recent Worlds Fair the exam
ination for the baking powder awards
were made by the experts Of the chem

partment of Washington. The official
report of the tests of the baking pow

tanning which was the best, and which
has been made public, shows the
leavening strength of the Royal to be
160 cubic inches of carbonic gas per
ounce of powder. OF the cream of

Fair, the next highest in strength thus
tested. contained but 133 cubic inches
of leavening gas. The other powders
gave an average of Ill. The Royal,
therefore, was found of 90 per cent.

FRANKFORT, Ky, Sept. 23.-The dem
ocratic congressional district commit
tee assembled yesterday to canvass the
vote at the primary to decide the lcandi-
dacy between Breckenridge and Owens.
Both candidates had friends present
looking after their interests. All the
members were present. A decision by
Chairman Carroll, of the state commit
tee, that Chairman Mcleod could only
vote in case of tie, was fled A
letter from Breckenridge was read
setting forth the powers and duties of
the committee to find and declare the
result of the primary election without
influence or interference from the out
side. He protested against the cleo
ton of Owens, saying that it was OBJ
tanned by fraud. but said he would ac-
cept the result rather than enter into
a contest which would result in the
election of a republican. The COM
mittee canvassed the vote and declared
Owens the nominee by 255 votes.

Numerous UnexpIalnable Carvings of the
Icagth in Kansas.
WICHITA, kas., Sept 25.--The land is
caving in in the vicinity of the juno
ton of Harvey, Butler and Marion
counties, this state. Great excitement
prevails among the people and many
of them are getting away, The disas-
ter is of unaccountab origin, and the
state officials are summoned to investi-
felt when the earth caved in, nor did it
bear any resemblance to an earth
quake. Near Whitewater an area Of
40x5O feet sank to a depth of twenty
eight feet, and when a man was let
down into the hole his weight alone
sunk it nearly three feet more. An
area seventy-five feet square sunk at
Plum Grove to depth of $50 feet.
This was on the farm of Sid Jones,
and carried in threshing machine
and separator with it. Water poured
into the latter hole from under ground
till it was filed nearly to the top, but
the hole at Whitewater is nearly dry,
though it is supposed the cave-in of
earth is resting upon a vast body of
water. The places are some seven or
eight miles apart. At Annclyn there
were several cave-ins, ranging in depth
from six to forty feet The theories
are various, but none of them so far
are scientific. Not long since a man
was digging well in the vicinity OF
Plum Grove. and when he reached a
depth of twenty-siN feet the drill shot
into an apparent vacuum and could
not be recovered. All the cave-ins
great and small, extend in crooked,
course distance of about
twenty-four miles.

deputy sheriffs had difficulty in bring

the miners and section men wanted to

now in jail, but fears are entertained
that an armed mob will try to forcibly

hang him. A strong guard is on duty.

SHANGHAI, Sept. 26.-Japanese sol
diers are being hurried to Hiroshima.
Transports are also focking thither,
and it is estimated that in ten days
Japan will have embarked or be ready
to embark so. 900 men, says the Japan
Gazette. This force is too large to be
required in Corea, where it could ac-
complish nothing decisive, and ru1nor
asserts it is intended for Pekin. There
is no doubt that some such blow is
requisite to bring the war to a success
full issue. If Japan simply contents
herself with driving the Chinese out of
Corea they will roll on army after army
to the borders until Japan yields from
exhaustion. Yet descent upon Pel1in
is not without it's perils. 1t is not a
matter of absolute certainty that the
japanese could reach Pekin, and should
they get there the question of getting
back is not a trivial one.
