The Alum Heart.

Many people are suffering from some
form of heart disease who have no idea
of the cause of it.
Any disturbance Of the digestive or
gans affects the hearts action, and
therefore every food which interferes
with digestion is responsible where
there are troubles of this character.
1t has been discovered that the use of
baking powder made from burnt alum
coagulates the blood very rapidly,
which interferes with it's free flow
through the arteries ond valves Of that
organ. Formerly alum was used as a
specific for children's Group, but owing
to it's tendency from the causes named
to produce heart failure. physicians no
longer employ it.
In view of such facts and in view Of
the overwhelming testimony of sci
entists as to the poisonous character Of
this drug when used for food purposes,
can there be any excuse for the ignor
ance or unconcern which permits any
one to take from the grocer package
of alum baking powder, simply for the
sake of saving a few cents in price?
1t is a healthful sign that many
states are limiting by law the sale of
the alum baking powder. Very soon
it will be prohibited in all states, OF
treated as a poison, as it should be.
But for such laws, how are the alum
powders to be known by consumers?
Where alum powders are not brand
ed as such, nor their sale prohibited by
law, it is better to avoid the use of any
new or doubtful brand until it has been
analysed. The purity of all powde' S
may be suspected if they are sold at a
price lower than the price of the best
standard brands. We know the Royal
to be first-class cream of tartar pow
der, and if consumers insist upon hav-
ing that brand, they will be sure Of a
pure, healthful article. In view of a
recently reported case of poisoning of a
whole family living near Logansport,
Indiana, from the use of alum powder,
it behooves every one to use eXtraor-
binary care in purchasing their sup
plies. We do not hesitate to recon-
mend the Royal to all who are in doubt
as to the powder they have been using,
as the United States Government tests
placed that brand at the head Of all the
tartrate powders. DIV

PEARL BOYD NOW IN EUGENE
She Is Causing the Police officials There,

She Is Causing the Police officials There
No End of Trouble.
Pearl Boyd, the incorrigable young
Gypsy girl, who was repeatedly in the
Salem police court few months since
on various charges and served several
sentences in the county jail, is now iu
Eugene. The following taken from
the Eugene Guard would indicate
that the girl has not yet forsaken her
evil practices;
'The gypsy girl who caused Salem
police officials considerable trouble
last fall, and who Ibid time" in the
city jail at that place, now bobs up as
source of annoyance 20 Eugene
officers.
1.-The entire family has come before
the police in an unenviable light.
When they were camped near Eugene
last winter, the mother asked for
protection, claiming that efforts
were being made to make way with
her, and on this visit the girl came to
duu odld ilCl OipOiNi1
had insulted her and threatened her
life. He thereupon secured lodging
for her at the Hotel Eugene.
After she left, a shirt waist and
pair of gloves from the hotel were
missed, and on being brought before
the officers the girl confessed to hid
ing the garments under the sidewalk,
where they were found. She was then
placed in jail, and on being brought
before Justice Wheeler this morning,
through her attorney, N. e. Markley,
took the day to plead.
"The girl goes by the name of Rose
Butler here, but to the Salem officials
last fall said that her name was Pearl
Boyd. She is hardened girl, with
whom it is hard to deal"
1t will be seen by the above that the
girl is pursuing the same tactics at
Eugene that she so successfully fol-
lowed at Salem for a time. She first
gains the confidence and sympathy of
generous persons whom she subse-
Quently robs. The girl is destined to
spend term in the state penitentiary

Hanna said that neither money mol
speakers would be sent to Oregon.
So far as can be learned, Senator
Hanna told Mr.. Steel very distinctly
and positively that he could have nc
money from the national committee,
He said that the Simon faction had
seen lit to prevent a session Of the Or
egon legislature, thereby deprivng
the Republican party Of representa-
tive in the senate at time that it
| had badly needed one. He SAID that
the faction not only would not have
Senator Mitchell, but that it would
not have any other republican except
Mr.. Corbett.
He went on to say that Senator
Mitchell had done more to carry Ore
gon for President Mckinley in 1896
than anyone else or than the whole
Simon faction, and that having done
so, the administration proposed to
give him great consideration. The
state committee he knew had been
identified with the Simon faction
and the whole Republican state cam
paign was being identified with the
Simon campaign.
Consequently, if any money were
sent, it would be used by the Simon
faction, which had control Of the
state central com mittee, against Sen
ator Mitchell as much as against the
silver forces. 1t would thus simply
serve to continue rather than to heal
the factional differences in the Re
publican party. Chairman Hanna
did not propose TO have republican
funds used for any such purpose,
When Mr.. Steel broached his own
appointment, he was very distinctly
man Hanna said again, Us he has
often said, that the federal appoint
ments in Oregon had been made at
the recommendation of the congress
sional delegation and that the re
mainder Of them would be made in
the same way. Men recommended by
the delegation would be chosen and
he said that Senator Patterson, of
Salem, would be appointed collector
Of customs in short while.
In short, Mr., Steel was told TO 70
home and to do all he could toward re-
uniting the Republican party before
he should presume to ask for aid from
the national committee. He was told
that this was an off year and the
campaign was not of vast Importance
anyway; that if the party presented
united front in 1900 it would receive
aid from the national committee, as
it had in the past. Speakers would
not he sent for the same reason that
there would be an effort to use them
In a factional fight and the party hav-
ing become divided had no right to
ask assistance from the national co IN
mittee.
That is no doubt the reason why
Hon. f. X. Schoonmaker, Of New
Jersey, did not remain 'here to make
the campaign. 1t was given out at
the state committee headquarters
that there was sickness fin Mr..
Schoonmaker's family, which made it
necessary for him to return. That
was a polite way of stating
the case. But as there were
no funds with which to pay the ex-
penses of the speaker on tour of the
state, there was really no use for him.
Mr.. Schoonmaker could not be eXpec-
ted to pay his own expenses in the
campaign.
Such is the present condition Of

All the expenses must be borne by

and celebrations and workers and

These men were sent by the national

Portland Tribune May 8:

The domineering attitude of the

Republican state convention in recOg-

paign to a disastrous situation. This

no money for expenses, M more than

No aid has come from the national

enough money for bare running ex-
