THE BODY OF B. Nj. M'BROOW LAID TO REST SUNDAY
 AFTERNOON,
SOLEMN AND IMPRESSIVE
The Firemen, Dewey Drill Corps ana Telephone Linemen Took 9
 Part,

The funeral of the late Maud Me Broom took place yesterday after noon and the remains of the soldier fireman now peacefully repose in the National cemetery, where sleep SC many heroes of the country, says Mondays Fort Smith News Record.
 At three o'clock yesterday after noon the friends of the 9ead boy took last look upon the features Of their one-time comrade and all time friend, at the Eome where he was the delight of the household and the idol of mothers heart.
 A short service was conducted d by the Rev. Frank Cole, of Browns combe church, and then the cortege went it's way to the National cema- tery where the sad rites were to be performed, and the casket shut of from the view of all.
 The Third Regiment Band preced- ed the procession, followed by Gan naway Hose ComT any No. with reel. Then came the drum corps made up of grizzled veterans piping the death march as they had piped it in times of furious war. Tue Deiser Hook and Ladder Company with truck came next, and thea the hea.

The Dewey Drill Corps of the Wood men of the World, in regulation sai.o~ uniform and with folded arms paced to the measured rythm of the dead march, and were followed by a number of telephone linemen, Wha carried on their shoulders the sigus of their calling.
 At the grave the services were solemnly impressive. There was prayer by the Rev. Cole and achaut- ing by the Brownscombe churct choir and dlrges by the band, while two sturdy negroes closed up the gap into which the coffin had been lowered and covered with padded board that the falling of the dirt might not sound further misery into the hearts of those already bursting with grief.
 When out of the grave there mad grown mound, there was a rattle of musketry and then all was done that loving humanity could do to express it's friendship and it's sor- row and it's sense of the great loss which had so suddenly fallen upon it.

One of the delights of an Ameri- cano-Mexico city, like EI Paso, is it's public park or plaza. It is custom borrowed from Mexico where plaza forms the center of every city or town in our sister Re- public. There a band, paid by the government, discourses the sweet est music on Sunday afternoons and at least one evening during the week. These are made gala events for the classes of every degree. The gay Senors with their fair Senoritas promenade around the square with measured tread 10 tbe soft, sweet strains of the military band. h fact, all society turns out in full and elaborate dress and the scene is oft brilliant one The children, too, play in joyous glee around the band stand or on the outskirts of the inside prom enade, while the peon, standing on the outside or third walk, looks sullenly on the brilliant spectacle. But it is a pleasant pastine for all, and it is gratifying that at least few of our Southern cities are following the Mexican custom. Last Monday evening Dewey day" was cele- brated by band concert in the El Paso park, and the park was crowd ed. Children gathered soon after school let out for the occasion, and the exhuberance of the young American youth and the joy de- plcted in the faces of the bright little maidens as they went about their play, made happy the hearts of all who witnessed it. If the beEe fits and enjoyment of public park were eyer demonstrated, t was on that occasion. My thoughts i'm mediately reverted to Pine Bluff and thought what joy and con- fort public park would be to the children and grown up folks of that town. In due time the band concert began and patriotic airs were dis coursed. A listening and enthus- iastic multitude responded with ap- plause. "Old Glory" waved from a tall flag pole in the rark, and can non boomed from near by Federal fort. It was a very pleasant and happy celebration, but how would the day have been celebrated if El Paso had uo park? How was the most marvellous victory in naval warfare ard history celebrated in Pine Bluff?

 Languor. loss of appetite, indiges- tion and often feyerishness are tue common symptoms of a physiolog- ical condition termed malaria" All these symptoms may be and ire- quently are the effect of the use of alum baking powders in food mak- ing. There is no questIon about the poisonous effect of alum upon the system. Itobstructs digestion pros trates the nerves, coagulates and devitalizes the blood. All this has been made clear, thanks to physi- clans, boards of health, and food commissions. So highly injurious to the health of the community does the eminent head of the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Parker. consider, the alum baking powders. that he says "their sale should be prohibited by law"
 Under these circumstances it is worth the while Of every housewife to employ the very little care that is necessary to keep so dangerous an element from the food of her family
 A pure cream of tartar baking powder. which is the only kind that should be used, ought to cost abont forty-five to fifty cents a pound. Therefore, if you are paying much less, something is wrong; if you are paving twenty-five cents or less per pound. the powder is certainly made from alum.
