NO PURE FOOD.

According to William E. Curtis,
staff correspondent at New York
for the Chicago Record, Senator
Mason has been sitting in the
great metropolis as a smelling
committee for week or ten days
under the authority of the senate.
to find out something about the
adulteration of food. The evil
dence given him by some. of the
witnesses is likely to drive us all
to starvation. Persons have testi-
fed that ordinary white bread is
deadly poison and that the many
cases of heart failure that we hear
of nowadays are directly due to the
large consumption of that staple
and other breadstuffs. Cornmeal
and oatmeal, bread and milk and
griddle cakes are deadly, while
soda crackers are more destructive
to the human family than dumdum
bullets or dynamite bombs. Meat
and potatoes have been demon
strated to be unfit for food; coffee
and tea contain tannin that de-
stroys the lining of the stomach: (:
fish are unclean and unhealtbful
because the waters in which they
live have been polluted by tan
bark and the sewage of our cities;
all garden sass" is utwholesome
because of the fertilizers which
feed the ground in which it grows.
chickens, turkeys and geese are
worse than beef and mutton, be-
cause of the food they consume.
Water and milk are the most pro-
life producers of disease germs.
All our cured meats are impreg-
mated with acids, and man might
as well eat clay or anthracite coal
as such an indigestible thing as
cheese.

DEWEY HOMELESS.

This lis the way one of our East
ern exchanges comments upon the
misfortune which has recently
come to Admiral Dewey:
"a long while ago God gave
Adam wife and straightway poor
Adam found himself in difficulties
and bereft of his beautiful home
in Eden, and the condemnation of
the whole race has since been up
on him and poor Eve.
"a few days ago He gave Admir-
al Dewey wife, and now he, too,
has lost beautiful residence
(transfer.ed it to his wife) that
was the gift from grateful people
and now about three-fourths of the
press and people have forgotten
the battle of Manila, forgotten his
glorious homecoming, forgotten
that he was human and therefore
subject to woman's smiles or
whims, and have set the seal of
tn cir condemnation upon him.
But it was Dewey's house and
Dewey's wife, and we believe he
knows his own business and is ca
pable of attending to it."

the explosive used in destroying
the battleship Maine, and that the
charge contained 700 pounds. This
explosive was sent from Barcelona
to the commandaute of the port,
Admiral Monterola, and the gun
cotton was removed from the maga-
zine with the knowledge and con-
sent of the officers, or else it was
stolen. 1t is also learned that two
or three men only were engaged
in destroying the Maine. The tor
pedoes, and there were two, were
carried by Spanish launch and
placed in position, so as to be with
in few feet of the Names berth,
and were about eleven feet below

The explosion was caused by the

Medals viii Soon be Ready.

The Denver News says that the
committee having charge of the
manufacture of the medals to be
presented to the LOO mem bers of
the First Colorado regiment has al
most completed its task and will
be ready TO report to Governor
Thomas on the first of next month.
The medals have been received and
the work is now in progress on
the certificates which are to ac-
company them. Medals and
cert ficates will be placed in pos
session of the governor and then
the adjutant generals department
will take a hand. Each certificate
must be filled out with the name
and rank of the owner and each of
the medals must be engraved with
the name of the soldier to whom
it is to be presented. This may
require a month or two The dis
tribution will extend over a much
greater length of time, as many of
the soldiers have gone to distant
parts of the earth.
1t is claimed by competent au-
thorities that the Colorado medals
will compare fnvorably in beauty
and workmanship with any ever
manufactured in modern times.
Major S. X. Hooper is chairman
of the medal committe.

The kentuckian's Woes.

Man born in the wilds of Ken
lucky is of feud days and easy vir-
tue. He fisheth, fiddleth and fight
eth all the days of his life. He
shunneth water as a mad dog and
drinketh much whiskey,
He riseth even from his cradle
to seek the scalp of his grandsire's
enemy, and bringeth home in his
carcass the ammunition of his
neighbor's wife's uncle's father-in-
law who avengeth the deed.
Yea, verify, his life is uncertain
and he knoweth not the hour when
he may be fired hence.
He gceth on a journey "half
shot" and cometh back on shutter,
shot.
He riseth in the night to let the
cat out, and it taketh nine doctors
three days to pick the buckshot
from his person.
He goeth forth in JOY and glad
ness and cometh back in scraps
and fragments,
He calleth his fellewman liar
and geteth himself filled with
scrap iron, even to the fourth gem
Grafton.
Woe, woe, is Kentucky, for her
eyes are red with bad whiskey and
her soil is stained with the blood
of the demiiitis. -Pinckneyville
Democrat.

Rockwell is Promoted.

The appointment of L. r. Rock
well as superintendent of the
Florence & Cripple Creek railway
was announced by General Super
intendent Ridgway Saturday. Mr.,
Rockwell left the service of the
Colorado q Southern at Pueblo a
few weeks ago, where he was chief
train dispatcher, aud accepted the
position of trainmaster with the
Florence & Cripple creek. He is
considered first class transporta-
tioh man, and it is said that on ac-
count of his exceptional ability
he has been placed in charge of
the road. The appointment went
into effect Saturday. = Denver

If the question of allowing
Brigham Roberts, of Utah, to re-
tain his seat in congress is decided
upon political lines, his expulsion
is not at all probable. Mr. Rob
erts is a democrat, a free trader,
a silverite and an anti-expansion-
list The republican majority in
the house of representatives is on
ly about fifteen, and if the silver
men all stand by him he will un-
doubtedly retain his seat, because
it will require two-thirds vote to
expel him. 1t is gratifying fact,
however, that the democrats are
determined that it shall not be
made party vote.

CONCENTRATING BRITISH TROOPS.

The Progrn Is Thought to lie To

London, August 29.-The Capetown COR
respondent of the Chronicle says; British
troops will be Immediately concentrated
at Langs Mex and Mafoldng and 1t is
believed that the British programme Will
be to surround the Transvaal and then to
negotiate new convention. According
to the Daily Mails Capetown correspond
ent the belief Is still entertained there
that the British government are opposed
to weak measures.
Although not definitely known, 1t is
asserted here In London that Mr. Cham
berlain had the reply OF the Trausvaal
government before he delivered the Bir-
mingham speech. 1t is also believed that
on receipt of President Kruger's offer of a
five years franchise and other concessions
Mr.. Chamberlain wired that they were
unacceptable and suggested notifications
If this be SO and il the reply to that
suggestlon--that the Transyaal govern
ment adhcres to its latest offer and will
make no further concessions--is really
President Krugers answer, the position Is
omnous. The importance of President
steyn's letter to Premier schreiner lies
in the fact that 1t denies the fact that an
offensive and defensive treaty exists be-
tween the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State.

was seriously injured by a fall into a

in an interview with a representative OF

THE object of the expedition was twofold

parts were partially unknown, and to reach

The FIRST object was successfully accom-

by previous explorers, but for the accident
