HIGHLAND BOY EXTENSION.
Important Discovery Made In This
Prospective Bonanza.

Important Discovery Maoe In 1nlS
Prospective Bonanza.
The Highland Boy Extension Mining
company has made an encouraging dis
coleIy in the shaft which is now be-
ing sunk in the development Of its
Bingham property, having struck some
very me leads which are said TO be
identical with that of the Highland
Sow vein. The ore shows nice sui
phate of copper and also carries good
values in gold and silver.
The property adjoins the Highland
Boy on the south and it is reported by
mining men who are considered au-
thority on the ores Of Bingham, that
this property will develop into good
bonanza The stockholders, when seen
yesterday by the reporter, appeared
very much enthused over the present
showing, and are in hopes that those
now holding an option on the property
will allow the same to lapse, as they
feel that indications are far superior to
their former belief as to the outcome
of this property

New York, March 15.-The changes in

losses prevailing. For the greater part
of the day stocks were under pressure,

the business was at per cent. London,

The ALUM BAKING POWDERS
Names OF Some of the PRINCIPAL
Brands Sold in this Vicinity

The recent discussion in the
papers of the effect upon the HUI
man system of food made with
alum baking powders and the
emphatic opinions that have been
published from noted scientists
to the effect that such powders
render the food unwholesome,
have caused numerous inquiries
for the names of the various alum
powders.
The chemists of the North Car
DINA Agricultural Experiment
Station, Profs. w. A. Wlthers
and j. A. Bizzell, have recently
collected and analysed the baking
powders sold IN North Carolina,
and from their report and from
other reliable authority, the fol-
loving list of baking powders
containing alum sold in this state
is given.
Baking Powders Containing Alum
GOOD LUCK Contains Alum
Southern Mfg. Co., Richmond
SUCCESS Contains Alum
Morehouse Mfg. Co., Savannah
RAILROAD Contains Alum
Morehouse Mfg. Co., Savannah
Bon Bon Contains Alum
Grant Chemical Co., Chicago
OLD DOMINION Contains Alum
Old Dominion Mfg. Co., Richmond
In addition to these, 1t is
learned that many grocers are
selling what they call their own
private or special brands. These
powders are put up Tor the gro
Ger, and his name put upon the
labels by manufacturers of alum
powders in New Orleans, Rich
mond, Chicago, Cincinnati and
elsewhere. The manufacturers,
1T is said, find their efforts to
market their goods IN this way
greatly aided by the ambition of
the grocer to sell a powder with
his own name upon the label,
especially as he can make an alb
normal profit upon it. Many
grocers, doubtless, do not know
that the powders they are thus
pushing are detrimental to health
and would be actually contra
band IN many sections if sold
without disguise.
1t is quite impossible to give
the names of all the alum baking
powders in the market. They
are constantly appearing IN all
sorts of DISCUSSES, under all kinds
of cognomens, and at all kinds OF
prices, even as low as five and
ten cents a pound. They can be
avoided, however, by the house
keeper who will bear In mind that
all baking powders sold at twenty
five cents or less per pound are
liable to contain alum, as pure
cream of tartar cannot be pro-
duceG at anything like this price.
