Pane's celery compound. He says:

vice,-and its grand total loss of killed

roll being $50. A regiment which
made that record did not spend much
time cooling coffeey; and a boy
who bore his part in it must have alb
sorbed in some way some of the
qualities of the sturdy and unyielding
coast upon which he was born and
reared.

heart to leave il two thousand miles
behind and make his home in water
less plain, where the very existence
of the ocean was little more to him
than a tradition. But possibly the

hopeless to the young soldier after two
years of the stir and the tumult and
the royal excitement of war; and
possibly the charm of the name,

SOME FOOD TESTS.

The official food analysis by 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-of-tartar
powders, which contain alum.
The report shows the Royal to be a
pure cream-of-tartar baking powder,
the highest in strength, evolving 1905
cubic inches of leavening gas per
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 still larger number
of powders. The Royal baking pow
der was shown the purest and high
est in strength, containing 1892
cubic inches of leavening gas per
ounce of powder. Nine other cream
of-tartar powders were tested, their
average strength being reported to be
80 cubic inches of gas per ounce.
These figures are very instructive
to the practical house keeper. They
indicate that the Royal baking pow
der goes more than 80 per cent further
in use than the others, or is one third
more economical. Still more impor-
tant than this, however, they prove
this popular article has been brought
to the highest degree of purity-for to
its superlative purity this superiority
in strength Is due-and consequently
that by its use we may be insured the
purest and most wholesome food.
The powders of lower strength are
found to leave large amounts Of i'm
purities in the food. This fact is
emphasized by the report of the Ohio
State Food Commissioner, who, while
finding the Royal practically pure,
found no other powder to contain less
than 10 per cent of inert or foreign
matters.
The statistics show that there is u.s.
ed in the manufacture of the Royal
baking powder more than hal of all
the cream-of-tartar used in the Unit
ed States for ali purposes. The sale
thus indicated for the Royal baking
pOwder-greater than that of all other
baking powders combined-is perhaps
a higher evidence than already quot
ed of the superiority of this article,
and of its indispensibleness to modern
cookery.

But he made friends fast SO

believe. But he made friends fast SO
that it was comparatively easy mat
ter in 1875 for him to secure the
Republican nomination for county
clerk. And in those halcyOn days to
be nominated by the Republican par
ty was to be elected when the time
came. And the friends that he had
made he held so fast, and the work
that was his he did so well, that he
was elected and reelected for four
consecutive terms. And ever since
that time no incumbent of that place
has ever coveted any higher praise
than to have it said that "he makes
nearly as good clerk as Tim Slower. !"
While performing the duties of
county clerk he studied law and was
admitted to the bar in 1880. And the
practice of this profession, together
with carrying ON the business of alb
stracting titles has engaged his at
tention since 1884, with the exception
of four years when he was employed
in the Indian service.
Aside from the office of county clelk
he has held that of Mayor of the city
of lola, and that of City Attorney. He
was Captain of Company b., End Reg
iment, X. n. g., for five years, resign
ing TO enter the Indian service He
was a charter member of McCoOk
Post, G. A. r., has been twice elected
Post Commander, and has been its ad-
jutant for nine years. He has been a
member of the Department Council of
Administration for three terms, and is
now Senior Vice-COmmander of the
Department. He is member of Pac-
fife Lodge, A. f. and A. NJ, and of
Valley chapter of r. A. NJ, at Hum
bOldt. Without any solicitation on
the part of himself or of his friends he
received from Hon. w. G. Edwards
the appointment of Assistant Secre-
tary of State, and he will enter upon
the important office next Monday at
noon. Capt. Slower is happily mar
ried and has family of four fine boys,
the eldest of whom, Lutte p, will take
charge of the abstract business during
his fathers absence.
In every personal way T. s. Slower
is "all kinds of good fellow" AS
we remember him first, some twenty
years ago, How the time flies he
was slim slip of a boy, weighing
possibly one hundred and thirty
pounds. He has filled out since then
in most comfortable way until his
weight is somewhere around 10.
The accompanying is an excellent
portrait of him and shows him as he
is, handsome, well-kept man in the
pri me of life and in the maturity of
all his powers. One would travel a
long way to find more companion
able man than Capt. Slower. He is a
crowned and anointed story teller,
and close observation, wide travel and
varied experience have given him a
fund of incident and anecdote that
seems inexhaustible. When to these
attractive personal qualities are add
ed felicity to friends, the strictest
probity in all private and public
affairs, and the faculty of doing we'll
md promptly every duty to which he
s assigned, it is easily understood
why it is that everybody who knows
him well is his friend, and it will go
without saying that no man will con- I
ribute more to the popularity of the
administration than the
Assistant Secretary of State.

TOPEKA, Kan, Jan. s, 1885.
Compared with the corresponding
day two years ago this day has been
dull and tame. There was no delay
of an hour and a half while plans
were being perfected to set aside the
will of the majority. There was no
vision of cowarJly and quaking Sec
rotary of State rushing out Oft the back
door and leaving behind him chaos
aud contention. There was no
scramble for the speakers gavel.
There was no Ben Rich making
majority out of a minority by the aid
of steering committee" and good
lead pencil. There were no deputy
Adiutants General" There was no
sign of any grip and pass word. There
was no war or rumOrs of war. 1t was
a dull day.
Promptly at noon the Secretary of
State entered Representative Hall,
raped for order, read the list of Ger
tiflcatedD members, and called for
a nomination for a temporary presid-
ing officer. 1t was the lawful and
proper course for him to follow, and if
he had followed similar course two
years ago there would have heen
no "war.n And when the roll
had been received, the House pro-
ceeded to organize by the election of
the officers already agreed upon by
the Republican caucus of the day be-
fore. Chas. E. Lobdell of Lane cOun-

were all filed with good men. and
women and boys. 1t was all over in
an hour.
In the Senate the gavel fell prompt
Iv at noon. and Lieutenant Governor
Daniels read a brief and appropriate
address of greeting and admonition.
There was roll call, showing all the
members present, except Senator
Price. of Atchison, who is very i'll,
and Senator Sem, of Dickinson
who had not yet arrived at the
Capital city; and prayer by ex-
Cbanlain Riddison, and then the
election of the subordinate officers
chosen by the Populist caucus was
proceeded with. The list of pages
showed that eight were provided, the
same number that there are in the

three times as many members as the

these eight four were the sons of Sen

list also bore the name of Ben. Rich,

PORTRAIT AND BIooRHoHICHh
SKETCH OF SCME OF THE
MEN WE Alb KNOW.

L. s. Slower was born at the little
salt water village of Bluehill, Maine,
January Is, 1874. His father was a
sea captain, and so the earliest recOl-
lections of the subject of this story are
of ropes and spaTs and tars and limit
less stretches of billOwy sea. AS
often as he was allowed he went with
his father on his coasting voyages.
At other times, when he had to, he
attended the village school, and after
wards tie Academy. 1t was while
still attending this institution that
the war fever came on him, and one
day at recess, being the 9th day of
February, 1868, he went down town
with lot of mis- classmates, and en-
listed for three years, as private, in
Co. D., 31st Maine Infantry. The
Regiment was composed largely of
veterans of the old End Maine, "a two
years. regimenD, and so the school
boys who had joined it as raw recruits
found themselves engaged very sud-
denly in veteran service. By the 9th
of May they were under fire, and they
never got out from under it until the
last gun had sounded at AppOmma-
tOx. Beginning at the battle of the
Wilderness, the 31st remained contin-
ually at the front through all the
terrific fighting of that terrific cam
paign, doing heroic duty and suffer-
ing frightful casualties. 1t lost 10
commissioned officers, killed on the
field of battle,-a number equalled by

1t will doubtless be of interest to
any who may be seeking appointment
under the incoming administration to
know that Maj. Morrill, has not yet
given any consideration to any appli-
cation. He announces that nothing
will be done in that direction until
after the Inauguration. Then each
office to be filed will be taken in turn
and every candidate who wishes to be
heard, either in person or by repre-
sentative, will be given an OppOrtuni-

then the wheels will begin to grind.
-
Now that the Speakership fight is
over, and the election of j. X. Hudson
as State Printer is practically settled,
the Senate contest is, of course, the
all absorbing subject. There is less
and less talk of dark horse. And
among the candidates in the field,
Burton is conceded to be in the lead
with Thatcher, Leland, Hood, Ady
and Smith following in the order
named. OF course the order of strength
here given is not admitted by every
body. but if the vote were to be taken
today il would not be found very far
out of line. The Second district is
solid in its support of Judge Thach ,
whose exalted character and pre-
eminent ability make him a candi-
date whom any one may be proud to
support. Whether he will win or
not cannot, Of course, be cOnjectured.
But that if he does win, Kansas WI!
have a representative in the highest
legislative body on earth who will be
worthy of the honor. The caucusing
will not begin till next week. If the
contest is prolonged and exciting, as
it promises to be, the REGISTER Bull

of how the battle GIBBS and flows.
