AFTER SEARCY'S SCALP.
Governor O'Ferrall Signs Regulation Papers, Whereby He Will Be
 Taken to Richmond.

CUMBERLAND, Md., Oct. 20.-At 4 o'clock this evening Charles J. Searcy, the suspected train robber at Aquia creek, was brought into court before Judge Hoffman in habeas corpus proceedings. Searcy looked pale and was plainly nervous. After short consultation with his lawyers, Messrs. Richmond and McBeth, the latter arose and asked Judge Hoffman to dismiss the habeas corpus, stating that the requisi- ton papers would be here tonight, and Searcy had been advised by his attorneys to go to Virginia with the authorities and stand trial there. Judge Hoffman dis missed the habeas corpus proceedings and Searcy was taken back to the county jail i, where he will await the arrival of the Vir- ginia authorities and will go quietly with them to Richmond, leaving hsre at Il o'clock.
 This morning Governor Brown, who is in Cumberland investigating alleged im- morality and mismanagement in the case of the Western Maryland Home and mfr mary, received the following telegra m from the governor of Virginia;
 KICHMCND, Va., Oct. 19.-Gov. Frank Brown of Maryland, Cumberland, Md: Have just signed requisition papers for Searcy. Officer will leave here this papers.
 CHARLES T. O'FERRALL,
 Governor of Virginia.
 Governor Brown will be here tonight and will sign the requisition papers directly after they arc han ded him on the arrival of the train at o'clock. This settles the Searcy case in Cumberland, and the many detectives, ex-representatives and others who have been here all the week will follow the suspect further south and endeavor to prove his guilt and put him where he be- longs if he is the bad, bad man they think he is.

EX-PRESIDENT HARRISON

MAKES AN EXTENDED POLITICAL TOUR
 THROUGH INDIANA.
 INDIANAPoLIs, Ind., Oct. 20.-Ex- Pres- ident Harrison returned to this city at TAO this evening after his second campaign tour through Indiana. Unlike his first journey a week ago, the trip of yesterday and today was made in the most delightful weather, bright, clear and warm, too warm if anything. On this tour, too, the route lay through strongly republican communi- ties whereas last week ne visisad These facts taken together rendered 1t natural that the crowds that heard the ex-president should be larger ana the 1n- terest greater than that of the Evansville the trip for one day, on account of the death of General Harrison's sister law, caused some confusion and tended to diminish the attendance at the various meetings, but in spite of this drawback the crowds were everywhere up to the ex-. pectations of the committee in charge and in many cases, notably at Marion yester- day, the attendance surpassed the most sanguine predictions.
 Leaving Fort Wayne at g o'clock this morning the first stop was at Columbia City, where he addressed 20OO people.
 At Laurel, where the train stopped that the venerable Alexander McNagny might greet the ex- president, the speaking was limited to few Worde, ana aC FlercetOn General Harrison merely bowed from the platform of his car. At Warsaw he was welcomed by 6o00 people and spoke for twenty minutes.
 The audience at Plymouth numbered 5CO0, and General Harrison spoke for nearly an hour.
 Targus had turned out 1000 people, but the train merely slRckened speed, and there was no speaking. General Harrison spoke twenty minutes at Rochester, where 5000 people met him, and an equal length of time at Peru to the same number of people.
 Logansport had 2500 people swelteriug Tn a huge barn like rink to hear the ex- presi- dent and as many more were unable to gain admission. At Delphi the crowd num- bered 2000 and the speaking lasted fifteen minutes. Seventeen thousand people at Lafayette were addressed for half an hour and at Lebanon crowd of 2000 was in waiting. From this point the train proceeded to Indianapolis without a stop, reaching here few minutes be- hind time. Today's trip ends General Karrison's campaigning in Indiana, al- though be is being urged to make one speech at Anderson, in the Seventh Con- gressional district, early next week. He returned home tonight much gratified with his journey and expressed confidence of re- publican success at the coming election.

This Book Club does not seem to be
as well known and patronized by the
the general public in Mineral Point rs
it deserves to be. 1t has been in ex-
istence for number of years but has
not had very long membership roll;
and yet it contains about four hundred
fifty well chosen books which are con-
stantly being added to, and the yearly
fee is only one dollar. Hitherto j. j.
Hanscom has kindly allowed the
books to be kept in the back part of
his stationery and book store where
members could exchange books every
Saturday afternoon; but recently a
large new book case loaned indefinite
ly by Mr.. Cyrus Lanyon has been set
up in the large second Office Of Hon.
j. M. Smith (now occupied by Mr..
Herbert n. Laflin) where books will
be exchanged hereafter on Friday
afternoon between the hours of four
and five. The club extends An urgent
and cordial invitation to any one in
general and everyone in particular to
come at that time and look over the
list Of books, as it feels sure that in
that case the membership will be
greatly increased. The list comprises
all sorts of subjects, and each member
upon payment of the fee is entitled to
order any book he likes. 1t is also
hoped that country people will join as
arrangements can be made to suit
their convenience. 1t is earnestly
hoped that this appeal will be
responded to, as there is certainly
enough "reading people" in Mineral
Point to build up hourishing Book

Some Food Tests.

The official food analyses of the
United States and Canadian govern.
ments have been studied with interest.
The United States government report
gives the names of eighteen we'll
known baking powders, some of them
advertised as pure cream-ot-tartar
powders, which contain alum.
The report shows the Royal to be u
pure eam,of-tartar baking powder,
the highest in strength, evolving 1906
cubic inches leavening gas per every
single ounce of powder. There were
eight other brands of cream -of-tartar
powders tested, and their average
strength was Ills cubic inches of
gas per ounce of powder.
The Canadian government inveSti.
cations were of u still larger number
of powders, The Royal Baking Pow
der was here also shown the p,lreSt
and highest in strength, containing
1882 cubic inches Of leavening gas
per every ounce of powder. Nine
other cream of-tartar powders were
tested, their average being reported to
be 50 cubic inches of gas per ounce.
These tlgures are very instructive to
the practical housekeeper. They
indicate that the Royal Baking
Powder goes more than 33 per cent.
further in use than the others, or is
one-third more economical. Still
more important than this, however,
they prove this popular article has
been brought to its highest degree of
purity-f1 to its superlative purity
this superiority in strength is due.
and consequently that by its use we
may insure the purest and most
wholesome food.
The powders of low strength are
found to leave large amounts of i'm
purities in the food. The fact is en-
phasized by the report of the Ohio
State Food Commissioner, who, while
finding the Royal practically pure,
found no other powder less than 10
per cent. Of inert or foreign matters.
The statistics show that there is
used to the manufacture of the Royal
Baking Powder more than half of all
the cream of tartar consumed in the
United States for all purposes. The
wonderful sale thus indicated for the
Royal Baking Powder greater than
that of all other baking powders
combined-is perhaps even higher
evidence than that already quoted of
the superiority of this article, and of
its indispensableness to modern
cookery.
