A Marked Advance.

The batteries of the ships are distinctly
speedy even up to the twelve-inch guns,
and are great advances upon their immedi-

There will be two torpedo tubes of the

not deserted him.
Southall's attire is scrupylously neat.
Yesterday he wore a business suit of
dark worsted, sack coat, high-cut vest
and conventional trowsers; white shir t.,
turn-doWn collar and four-in-hand tie.
With his neatly trimmed Van Dyke
beard and carefully clipped musta che,
Southall looked the typical business
mantle banker of fiction.
The subject Of his Jail life was not
pleasing to Southall and yet he dis
cussed it pleasantly, saying:
mo, l would not choose this sort of
existence. I have been here six weeks
and cannot complain of the treatment
1 take good care of myself. Plenty of
exercise, just as frequent changes of
linen as though not here, but 1 would
prefer to not discuss the matter fur

Then Mr.. Southall chatted with his
visitor about old-time acquaintance.
He frightened perceptibly when their
names were mentioned, and was pleas
ed to hear of them. At the conclusion
of the visit Southall babe his caller a
CHEEKY "Come again"
During the talk he referred but once
to his family and near friends, and
that was to express regret that they
should have been annoyed with qUeS-
tons about him when he was first ar
rested.
In the vernacular of the fighting
man. J. H. Southall evidently has
something UP his sleeve" which he
will keep there until his case is in

eff you bring me in guilty, you ruin
me and my family for life
Such was the plea of William r.
Grant, who was yesterday arraigned
before United States Commissioner
Spencer charged with using the malls
to defraud.
The prisoner acted as his own attor-
ney and handed in his defense in writ
ing. He said his home was at 302 West
High street, Urbana, ILL.,, where he has
a wife and daughter. He claims to be
an organizer for the Supreme Court Of
Honor, a secret society with a benevo-
lent object.
Using the name G. W. Gable, it is
charged, Grant advertised in st. Paul
for a bookkeeper He demanded So III
stamps from applicants, "to defray adj
vertising expenses"
No one lost a cent. The United States
postal authorities were notified, and
through them Grant was arrested by a
deputy United States marshal. A num-
Der of letters were found in his pos
session which were considered incrim-
mating, and Commissioner Spencer
held him in the sum of $500 to appear
in the United States district court
June 81, to answer to the charge of
using the mails to defraud. Being I'M
able to furnish bond, Grant was re-
manded to Jail.
The prisoners plea for liberty was
most pftiful. He protested that he
meant to do nothing criminal; that he
had received letter from his wife tell
ing how their little daughter, who was
i'll, constantly called for papa" and
he had finally determined to quit the
road and settle down in Urbana; that
he had advertised for a man to take
his place as organizer for the Supreme
Court of Honor, and had used q fic-
titious name for fear he would injure
the order by making 1t known that he
was about to quit the work Of organiz-
ing.
When asked by Commissioner Spen-
Ger why he had advertised for a book
keeper Grant gave a similar excuse.
When the commissioner fixed the
prisoners bond at $500, Grant covered
his face with his hands and muttered:

ENDANGERs THE HEART.
Alum Found to Be u tPredfspOsinG
Cause of Disease of That Organ.


Recent developments Indicate that
strong measures twill have to be taken
to suppress the free sale and use of
alum baking powders if the health OF
the people is a. matter Of legislative
moment. -,s' -
These powders are now sold decep-
lively nearly everywhere as cream OF
tartar powders, and If the. sale Is per-
mitted to continue the results will be
most serious 80
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, or
treated as poison, as 1t should be.
Beside their other evil influences, 1T
has been discovered, the use Of baking
powders made from burnt alum coagu-
lates the blood very rapidly, which in
terferes with it's free flow through the
arteries and valves of the 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
CANS affects the hearts action. and
therefore every food which interferes
with digestion is responsible Where
there are troubles of this character.
Formerly alum was used as specific
for childrens Group, but, owing to Its
tenQency from the causes Named To pro-
duce heart failure, physicians no long
er employ it. -~ &c
In face. 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 pur-
poses, can there be any excuse for the
ignorance or unconcern which permits
any one to take from the grocer pack
age of alum baking POWDER simply
for the sake of saving few cents in
price? H.
Where alum powders are not branded
as such, nor theiEs sale prohibited by
law, it is better to avoid the use of
any new or doubtful baking powder
until it has been analysed. The purity
of all powders may be suspected if
they are sold at price lower than
the price of the Best standard brand
We know the Royal to be a .f1rst-class
cream of tartar powder and, if con-
sumers insist upon having that brand
they will be sure pf a pure, healthful
article. In view of the recently re-
ported case Of spoisoning of whole
family living near Logansport, Indi-
ana, from the use Of alum powder, il
behooves every one to take extraordi-
nary care in purchasing such supplies
We do not hesitate to recommend the
Royal to all who are in doubt as tc
the powder they have been using, as
the United States Government tests
placed that brand at the head of all the
tartrate powders

OLD AUGSBURG ROW.
Supreme Court Puzzles Over an An
ctent Row.

The major part of yesterdays session of
the supreme court was taken up with argu-
ments in the case Of The State of Minnesota
ex rel, with N. C. Brun, L. F. Clausen, Lars
Swenson. o. A. Veblin and o. o. Aastad as
REALTORS, VS.. Sven Oftedal and others.
This is the old Augsburg theological semi
nary case, which was aired for several years
in the district court Of Hennepin county
There two sets Of trustees Of the institu-
ton. the Oftedal people holding office, as they
claim, by virtue of the charter of the insti-
tuition, and the Brun people, who were elected
trustees by the Lutheran conference, which
controls the institution.
The district court held that the trustees
elected by the conference were the authorized
trustees. This threw the present petitioners
out. They appealed to the supreme court
refusing to abide by the decision of the dis
trict court.
The point which the supreme court will
have to decide is which of the sets of trustees
are the legal directors of the affairs of the
seminary. The court room was filled with
members of the Lutheran clergy during the
hearing.

Literature in the public schools was the
theme at the Grant School union meeting
last night.
The opening address was by Rev. Mr.. Jen-
kns, who pointed out the need for nlors
palatable educational food for the child Day
text books were well enough in their way,
said the speaker, but there should be easier
access for children to the sort of literature
that entertains while it instructs.. Even the
Bible should not be overlooked from the
standpoint of literature. If it were regard
ed more in that light e greater number would
read It. - - !. -.
Mr.. Jenkins was followed by Prof. Slack,
of the Rice school, whose address was as
interesting to the many school children pres
ent as to parents. Prof. Slack acknowledged
that though he had studied and taught the
history of the country, he found after delv-
ing into it's literature that he had simply
SKINNED over the surface.
GIVE the child more to read. Do not
confine it to- text books" he urged.
Vocal and instrumental music by Miss
Thornton and Miss Myron proved a pleasing
addition to the programme.
