CHEAP BAKING POWDERS DID IT.

In one of the leading female seminar
les in Georgia, there recently occurred
an epidemic which affected the students
in peculiar and in some cases most
serious manner. An investigation by
the local physician showed that quaint
ties of a cheap, alum baking powder
were being used In the baking He i'm
mediately ordered the use Of this
brand of powder be discontinued, and
a pure, cream Of tartar powder substi-
tuted. The change was attended by e. .
cellent results. The patients rapidly
improved, and the peculiar affliction
disappeared. The physician, one of the
most eminent in the south, asserts that
thousands of acute stomach troubles
are directly caused by the daily use
Of these vile, cheap alum powders

CUBA.
Order for It's Government
Made Public.

Washington Dec. 1.-THE war de-
partmen- today made public the for
NAL order providing for the military
government Of Cuba The notable fea-
ture Of the order is that Maj. Gen. Lud-
low, who is designated as military gov
ernor of Havana city while nominally
subordinate to the division command
err Gen. Brooke, is apparently charged
10 exercise all the civil functions in
that place, under the direct authority
Of the president Gen. Lees functions
appear TO be limited to those of a
strictly military character, although it
is said at the war department he may
eventually be charged with all the
duties, civil as well as military of the
governor Of a province. The text of the
letter is as follows:
War Department Washington, Dec. 10
BY direction Of the president a division,
to be known as the division of Cuba, CON
sisting Of the geographical departments
and provinces Of the island of Cuba with
headquarters IN the city Of Havana. is
hereby created under command of Mai

troops in the division win exercise the
authority Of military governor of the ISL

mand Of all the troops in the province Of

scrlbed by the president.

This leaves the provinces of Havana

strong that Maj Gen. Lee will be as

and Maj. Gen. J. H. Wilson to the com
mand Of the department Of Matanzas.

transportation for the fiscal year ending

report on the investigation. recently con-

of their railway mail transportation. He
says the average distance mail is carried
by railroads here is three times greater
than i'm Great Britain; the United States
carries double the number of pieces of mail
matter of all classes Great Britain
does; has over 10000 more post offices and
for mails. The postal system of France rs
not equal to the United States in MANY
respects. In Germany, as in France the
railroads are largely nnder government
