policies for small amount. The com
panies issued the policies and the Nor
woods placed them in their safe, where
they remained until the property Gov
cred was destroyed by fire. Then the
Norwoods learned that instead OF get
ting the amount Of insurance that they
supposed that they had bought, they
would have 10 eubmit to scaling
down in the ratio of $4,000 to
S27 7.OC0; being all that the
goods could carry under the poll
cics. The Norwoods obtained iudg-
mcnt in the Kansas federal court, and
the insurance companies appealed.
The question was whether the agents Of
the companies, knowing the circum-
stances under which the Norwoods
sOught insurance, the size and value Of
their goods, etc, could bind the com
panics by waving By word of mouth
the provisions of the policies restricting
insurance TO $4,000. The court holds
that insurance agents may so bind the
company. The verdict in this case
is n great victory for o. +. Il E. p.
Norwood. and too much credit can
not be given Hon. W. II. Vernon, of this
city, FOR the mastery manner in which
he has conducted it for the Norwoods.

p .--. .,,uzIy. Tor II is well unurr-
stood that they are detrimental to
health. The sale OF lime and alum
baking powders as pure and whoieso me
articles is therefore criminal and it is
satisfactory to notice that several
persons engaged in such sale have
already been brought to justice In the
courts.
The official analysts have recently
been active in the pursuit of these dis
honest articles, The baking powders Of
several states have been carefully and
critically examined. The officials are
surprised at the large amount of lime
and alum goods found. tbs a suggestive
fact that no powder except the Royal
has been found without either lime or
alum. and many contain both. A bak.
ing powder being introduced here from
San Francisco has been found 10 contain
twelve per cent of lime; another eleven
per cent of alum.
The chief service of lime is to add
weight. 1t is true that lime. when sub.
jectcd to heat. gives off certain amount
OF carbonic acid gas, but quick lime is
left caustic Of most powerful nature.
A small quantity of dry lime upon the

A FerOcious Monster.

Beeville, Dec I4.-John W.Cook,
who is Just back from hunt in the
upper part of this county, reports IL
remarkable experience with
wounded deer and some unknown
and unseen monster wild animal.
He had wounded a large fat doe
which had made ito temporary es-
cape into the brush near by. Mr.
Csok followed it II short distance,
when he heard it bleating and max
ing peculiar noise, as if in great
agony. He rushed into the thicket
when to his astonishment some fe-
rocious animal had pounced upon
the dear and had bahly mutilated
its body. There were long and deep
gashes back of the head, nearly all
Of one side had been torn away and
its hips badly lacerated. AS this
was all done in only few moments,
he is curious to know what kind OF
a varment it could have been. He
secured his game, however, and
brought it into camp, but says he
was somewhat nervous. He ha!
lived on the frontier a number O
years, but has never encountered
so ferocious Or bloodthirsty crea.
ture before.
