SOLVING THE BISCUIT PROBLEM

Gneeda Biscuit and Their Albright
Packages Please All HOusekeepers.
Housekeepers have found their problems
made much easier and their labor made
lighter by the enterprise that has supplied
them. through the nearest grocer, with
Uneeda Biscuit. the new food article.
Uneeda Biscuit, which has met with
such immediate popularity, is successful
because Of its simplicity. 1t is new
raised biscuit of superior excellence and of
peculiar shape, which has all the crispness
and freshness that make a soda biscuit
just out of the oven a most exquisite NOR
sci. The soda in ordinary biscuit soon alb
serbs moisture from the air and the crack
er loses its crispness. Even IL it should
dry out again the flavor has departed for
ever.
This difficulty has been overcome in
Uneeda Biscuit by special package
which is moisture proof and air-proof. so
that 1t will retain for a reasonable time all
the goodness that the baker was able 10
put originally into the biscuit. Uneeda
Biscuit can be found in almost every gro
Gerry store. The new biscuit are never sold
in bulk. but always in the peculiar pack
age. and the price. five cents a package, Is
an illustration Of the wonderful cheapness
Of good food which has been often COM
mented upon.

CANNON TO GUARD COURT.
Trouble Expected at N Kentucky
Murder Trial.

| Lexington. KY, June 3.-Great activity
prevailed among the three companies OF
| the State Guard yesterday, as they pre-
pared to go to Clay county to guard Judgl
II. c. Eversole and his court while Tom
| Baker and his brothers are being tried for
the killing of Wilson Howard and Burch
Stores in Clay county last year.
After all preparations had been made the
companies were taken out for target prac-
tice this Afternoon. They made good scores.
although some of the boys had just en-
rifle before.
One Calling gun will be taken along un-
der command of Lieutenant Longmire,
who served in the Second Kentucky during
the SpanshAmerican war. He has ten
picked men to work the gun. Colonel Will
company to go on the campaign. and the
immediate commander will be Major J. W.
Allen, who saw service in the war, as di i
his adjutant. Lieutenant Robert Kennedy.
The large force being sent is believed
to be necessary as a precautionary meas
ure. for last summer when Assistant Ad-
jutant General Walter Forester took cnly
small company to Manchester a collision
between them and the leaders of the How
ard faction was barely averted.
Colonel Forester afterward told Gov
ernor Bradley it would never do to send
only one company to Manchester again,
and advised that Calling gun and bat
TALON be sent. The governor on this oc
casion ordered out the battalion, but Col
onel Williams said that thirty picked men
from each of the three companies. with
the Calling gun squad would be sufficient.
The Calling gun squad will exhibi. their
piece in action.
The trial of the Bakers is set for next
Monday. Tom Baker, the leader. has sig
nifed his intention of going quietly to
court if the State will protect him from the
Howards and the Whites. He killed VIII
White last year.
AS the Whites have full control OF the
machinery of the law in Clay county the
Bakers are afraid to trust themselves there
unguarded. The great danger lies in the
probability of a personal encounter be-
tween the guards and some of the natives
Last year one of the Howard faction was
anxious to start trouble, but the soldiers
were under such good control of the Off
GERS that they did not resent the insults OF
the Howard men. The Whites are allied
with the Howards against the Bakers.
