A Pure Baking Powder.

bak ing powder that can be depended tc

can be judged from the oficis reports, the
"Royal' seems 10 be the only one yet found
by chemical analyses TO be entirely withou,
one or the ogher of these substances and
absolutely pure This, it is shown, results
from the exclusive use BY its manufacturers
of cream tartar specially refined and pre-
pared by paten, processes which totally re-
move The ,artrate Of lime and other impuri-
ties. The cos; of this chemically pure cream
of tartar is much greater than any other,

the Royal" the manufacturers Of which

Dr.. Edward G Love, formerly analytical
chemist for the Z. S. Government who made
the analyses for the New York State Board OF
Health in their investigation of baking pow

ingredients OF all those sold in this market
enables him 10 speak authoritatively, says Of

Tom DlXon's Lecture.

Rev. Thomas Dixou's lecture on Back
bone' is said to be his greatest effort, and
the writer can easily believe it, for it would
require an effort Of the imagination TO con-
ceive of anything more eloquent, forcible or
rhetorically more chAste and beautiful than
the lecture he delivered in the Opera House
on Wednesday evening. Dixon is au orator
of unusual ability. possessing all the quail
ties that enables man to hold an audience
subject to his mind and will for hours. His
presence is striking, his voice is magni6-
cent and under the most perfect control, en-
abling him TO express by intona'ions what
in others would require sentences.
The lecture WAS filled with thought forci-
bly, and originally expressed, and the au-
dience was fully convinced that the Dixon
conception of backbone was the correct
one. His hearers were charmed by his ora
tory, impressed by his thought and convinc-
ed by his reasoning.

British Troops VIII Be Landed at Corinto
TO-day-Custom Houses to Be Taken.
WASHINGTON, April 25.-Exact Off
cial information has been received as
to Great Britain's belligerent steps in
Nicaragua, British troops are to be
landed at Corinto. The custom houses
are to be occupied by the British forces,
and British officers are to exercise the
functions of collectors of customs. At
the same time .Nicaraguan local COM
merce is to be crippled by blockade.
The limit of time allowed Nicaragua to
yield expires to-day, and the blockade,
landing of troops and seizure of Gus
tom houses is to begin Immediately
thereafter. There is good reason to
believe that Nicaragua is not likely to
yield, but will allow British troops to
occupy Corinto in order that conspicu-
Gus attention may be drawn to what is
regarded by Nicaragua as an invasion
of the Monroe doctrine.
