ed by state action. In Minnesota
and Wisconsin alum powders are not
permitted to be sold unless they are
branded to warn consumers of their
true character, while IN the District of
Columbia the authorities have, under
the direction of congress, adopted
regulations to prohibit the use of alum
in bread altogether.
Are not the people of other states,
as well as those of Minnesota and Wis,
cOnsin, entitled to warning of a
danger which Is apparently menacing
them at close hand, and is not the
whole country entitled to absolute
projection, as the people of the
District of Columbia are protected, by
legislation which is entirely prohlbI-
tive?
Until we can have protection in the
form of statute. how can our state
boards of health, state analysts or
food commissions better serve the
public than by publishing in news
papers from time to time the names
of the baking powders which they
| find to be made from alum?
Meantime, it will and the housewife

molten rocks in great size. According
to Dayey, the rocks were as big as
horses and went to great height.
IT took Davey and his party fifteen
hours to ascend the mountain from

AMERICAS ONLY TRAITOR.
Revenge upon the Colorado Soldier who
Became a Filipino.

Revenge upon the Colorado Soldier who
Became Filipino.
The tragic scene which attended the
death of Corporal Leonard F. Hayes,
Americas only traitor in the Philippines,
was witnessed by Sergeant George A.
Lamarsh, of Company H, Twentieth
Kansas Volunteers.
Corporal Hays. he says, became en-
amored of Filipino beauty, and desert
ing his comrades was placed in charge
of Filipino battery with the rank of
lieutenant. He met his death almost in
the first engagement in which he fought
against his country.
Speaking of this battle Sergeant La
marsh said: ave had charged the Fill
pinos, driving them back and killing
and wounding many. Among the
wounded left on the field We found
Hayes. He was recognized by several
of the boys. One of the soldiers of the
Second Oregon drove his bayonet
through the body of the wounded traitor
and lifted him above his head and held
him there while the soldiers shot him.
The body was thrown into trench and
buried with several dead Filipinos. We
would have treated him worse if we
had known how.
Hayes was a corporal in Company |,
First Colorado Volunteers.
Hamilton Clark of Chauncey, Ca, says
he suffered with itching piles twenty
years before trying DeWitt's Witch Ha>
Eel Salve, two boxes OF which completely
cured him. Beware of worthless and

THE POPE'S OLD AGE.


Pope Leo is now SO. March 2 next

nossible for a supreme pontiff to cele-
brate the 2lst anniversary of his
cremation; and only one, among the
75S popes who have been crowned,
reached the years of st. Peter" Pope
leo XIII. is now within four years of
that proverbial period; for, according
m the Catholic church, ST. Peter
served his flock exactly one-quarter of
a century.
The long life of this remarkable man
and his excellent health are due main

frugal edict II eat more in one
meal than the holy father does in a
week" is a remark made by his ply
stefan. In view of these facts 1t will
be interesting to note the general rou-
tine of the pope's life during one day.
He arises every morning at about 6
o'clock. and is assisted in dressing by
his old and faithful valet After mass
he partakes of coffee and goats milk
with a little bread. Al 10 o'clock the
secretary of state arrives 10 consult
with his regarding the affairs of the
yEageay, When the morning is about
half way through a small bowl of
broth is brought to him. The midday
meal is eaten about 1870 p. m; and
usually consists of soup, boiled meat,
roast lamb and vegetables with claret
or chant. His holiness now takes a
short siesta. This over, he resumes
his work; and later in the day takes
drive through the beautiful gardens
