up the Rio Grande was fired on from
shore trenches. The range was twenty
yards. When stock was taken it was
found that the insurgent loss was
heavy. The American loss was one
killed and three wounded. This dam
age was done by the first volley of the
Filipinos.
Probably the severest fighting north
of Malolos was the three-day cam
paign between Malolos and Calumpit.
Major Young read from his diary of
those three days of fighting, and made
comments as he read:
I'VE received word about 1890 April
% to take guns up to Quingua. Took
three guns of the UtahS and one of the
Sixth artillery, Captain Wedgwood and
Lieutenant Fleming. We were with
the advance. Found an abandoned po-
sition within 700 yards of the enemy's
lines. slightly to the left and rear of
the Nebraskas. With all four guns we
shelled first the trenches. until the en-
envy ran, then turned the Cuttings on
them while they ran, and afterward
shelled the town of Quingua. In all
we fired nearly 100 rounds. Then, after
entering the town, we fired along the
streets. That evening-Sunday-
bOmbarded Pulilan, north of Quingua
river. Two men were wounded during
Stotsenberg of the Nebraskas was
killed. We were under heavy fire all
day.
Monday, Lieutenant Fleming, with
his platoon and one Utah gun, crossed
the river at Quingua with General
Hale's brigade, and he was engaged
all the way to the river Chico. Then
we were Joined by the rest of the bril-
gaze. Tuesday, Fleming was on the
right of the Chico and myself south
of Quingua river, while the armored
train was on the track. We had fight
there, and the next day moved across
the river. We dropped shrapnel into
the trenches at CaluTnpit. Lieutenant
Fleming, with two of the Sixth artil-
lery and one of the Utah guns, did this
while the army was getting across
Bagbag river.
Thursday, Fleming brought one gun
into the warehouse at Calumpit One
gun was taken down the stream TO
where Funston was to cross. We drove
them out of the trenches there. Three
other Utah guns were brought across
the Bagbas and two Cuttings from the
armored train. In command that day
were Lieutenant Critchlow and Captain
Naylor, with the Utahs, and Lieuten-
ant Bridges, with the Cuttings from
the armored train. Nipa huts were
the best protection we could find. We
were within 400 yards of the enemy. In
fact, just across the river and from
that position shelled the trenches and
the country when the enemy began to
retreat. Fleming was doing similar
work from the left flank. We suffered
there. Two of our men were killed
and one wounded. In one battery three
men out of eight fell. The trenches
at Calumpit were too heavy for our
guns. 1t would have taken eight-inch

bomb-proof intrenchments they had

A STRINGENT FOOD LAW.
Prohibits the Use of Arsensc or Alum
in all Articles of Diet.

The law enacted by the Missouri leg
islature, copy of which was recently
published in our columns, and which
prohibits the manufacture or sale of any
article intended for food or to be used
in the preparation of food, which con-
tains alum, arsenic, ammonia, etc.,
places that state in the lead in the mat
ter of sanitary legislation.
Laws restricting the use of alum in
bread have been in force in England,
Germany and France for many years.
In this country, in Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and sew
eral other states, direct legislation in
reference to the sale of alum baking
powders has also been effected. In
several of these states their sale is pro-
hibited unless they are branded to show
that they contain alum, and in the Dis
trict of Columbia, under the laws of
Congress, the sale of bread containing
alum has been made illegal.
Following are the names of some of
the brands OF baking powder sold in
this vicinity, which are shown by re-
cent analysis to contain alum. House.
keepers and grocers should cut the list
out and keepit for references:
DAVIS o. K. Contains Alum.
R. b. Davis & Co., New York.
CROWN. Contains Alum,
J. p Dieter Co., Chicago.
KENTON. Contains Alum.
Potter-Parlin 90. Cincinnati,
CALUMET. Contains Alum.
Calumet Baking Powder Co., Chicago.
DELICATESSE Contains Alum.
Delicatesse Baking Powder Co., New York.
I. Contains Alum.
Jaques Mfg Co., Chicago.
The housekeeper should bear in mind
that alum makes a cheap baking pow
der. 1t costs but two cents a pound,
while cream of tartar costs thirty.
The quality of the powder is therefore
usually indicated by the price.

THE THIRSTY THING.
THE D. L. & N. DELAYED BY A
BALKY HORSE.

The East bound Mail and Express
Freight Train came in from the West
Tuesday evening, three hours behind
time. 1t was feared there had been
a collision, or that the train had jump
ed off the bank into the reservoir; and
it was even suggested that it was
ashamed to come into town till after
dark. But about eight o'clock it came
putting along, just as if nothing was
the matter; and from the only lady pas
senger who was aboard, we learned the
true cause of the delay.
1t appears that somebody at Lewis
town, who had read Tuesdays Repub-
lican, informed the iron horse that it
wouldn't get to take water at Bellefon-
taine. and it balked (FactD and wouldn't
go any further! Here was trouble. The
balky horse at the hitch-up race, wasn't
a circumstance to it. A stubborn, con-
trary critter, darkness all around, and
Bellefontaine miles away! The engin-
eer promptly sized up the situation,
''That horse must be watered3' Think
of it! Only boy who has carried wa
ter for the elephant, to get into cir.
Gus, could have any comprehension OF
the magnitude of the job of watering
locomotive by dipping up water by
the bucketful from stream! But
there was no getting out of it, and at
the call of the conductor, all hands
turned out. Every passenger, but the
one lady, hustled out, and forming an
amateur fire brigade, they passed up a
line of buckets, till the sides of the old
thing stood out like the ribs of far
mer's steer that had just been watered,
preparatory to going onto the scales.
Then the bell rang, the passengers
got aboard, the old "hoss' switched its
tail, and off they started again for
Bellefontaine. Mad? Did they swear
any? Not a bit of it. They were per-
fectly hilarious, and as they pulled in
to the depot, one man who had been
on the way from Lima, since nine
o'clock in the morning, wanted to hug
one whole side of Bellefontaine.

FIRE IN EAST LIBERTY.

Last evening near eight O'Clock the
cry of ''fire! fire! fire! in the elevator
was heard. The people rushed to the
scene and discovered the elevator
spouting on fire.
The men worked heroically, and in
the course of an hour had the flames
under CONTROL and in a little while
longer entirely out.
Owing to their crowded conditions
the elevator had been kept running
constantly for the past two days, and q
pulley had become overheated. The
loss is not yet ascertained.
