WHITE RULES THE
HANCOCK ALLEYS
kettell, Green and Gates DiSpos-
ed of in Ten-String Match
Last Niuht

Hancock candlepin bowlers ought to let
A. Fred White rest in peace now with the
laurel wreath in his possession. He bowled
last evening against three other members
of the club in a ten-string candlepin
match and was high man. His competi-
tors were Kettell. Green and Gates. He
has now beaten Kettell five times in SINH
lar matches Green twice, and defeated
of Green, he had a soft thing. He defeat
ed Gates by 36 pins and Kettell was SO
far behind on the ninth string that he
didn't roll the last because he would not
be anywhere in sight. He had only ia on
the ninth string, against 1888 for White.
The contest was between Green and
White, and the Green faded. For five
strings 1t was hot between the four men.
At the end of the fourth string White led
with 34S; Green had $40, and Gates and
ketteI were tied with 336. There was
only difference of u pins all around.
White jumped to the front in the fifth
with a string of 104, the best string of the
match. 1t gave him a total of 452 for five
strings, Gates and Green were tied with
429, while Kettell fell back to 416. White
went from first place in the fifth strirrTT to
third in the sixth. Gates got his a.
string, an even century, which put him in
however, rolling SO, making his total for
six strings just one less than Gates had.
Whites big lead was

strings, five pins back of the leader
A rs string disposed of Gates in the
seventh game. White was high man with

three, pins. The tables were turned in the
eighth string. Green put up s., while
White rolled but 70, which gave Green
lead of six pins. the score being 697 to SOL,
with two more games to bowl. In the
ninth string White made 80, against IS for
Green which reduced the latter's lead to
two pins. The finish was exciting. Green
seemed like sure thing. He started off
with 4S half, which meant White would
have to roll. But he never lost confidence
and got in. two pretty spares in the last
string, which footed him up 101 for his
string, while Green finished with 3d.
Whites gain in the last string of II pins
gave him the match over Green by nine
pins. The scores were:

The doctors inform us that alum Is
a poison, and that alum baking pow.
ders should be avoided, because they
make the food unwholesome. Promi.
nent hygienists, who have given the
matter most study, regard these pow.
ders as an evil that should be sup.
pressed 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 regu
lations 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 warnings Of q dan
ger which is apparently menacing them
at close hand, and is not the whole
country entitled to absolute protection
as the people of the District of Colum
bia are protected. by legislation which
is entirely prohibitive?
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 the newspapers
from time to time the names of the
baking powders which they find to bt
made from alum?
Meantime, it will aid the housewife
in designating the alum powders to re

ty-f1ve cents or less per pound are o.
this dangerous class. Pure cream o.
tartar powders are usually sold at from
forty-five to fifty cents a pound.

ROYAL WELCOME FOR DEWEY
NAVY MAKES PREPARATIONS.
To be In New York City-Admiral samp-
son and Captain Evans Confer-Entire
North Atlantic Squadron Will Assem-
ble to Participate.

New York, Aug. ls.-A special from
Washington says:
Orders have been issued by Acting Sec.
retary Allen to Captain Robley d. Evans,
who commanded the battleship Iowa dur
ing the war with Spain, directing him to
confer with the Dewey reception commit.
tee of New York and with Rear Admiral
Sampson respecting the navy's participa-
tion in the ceremonies incidental to the
homecoming of Admiral Dewey.
Rear Admiral Sampson has been direct
ed to prepare a program for the ships OF
his squadron in the reception of the ad.
miral, which will be formally approved
by the department. Admiral Sampson il
also expected to confer with the reception
committee of New York, so that there
be no confusion.
1t seems to have been finally decided
that the north Atlantic squadron will not
60 abroad to meet the Olympia, but the
admiral will be requested to send to the
department, before leaving the Azores, no.
tice Of the exact route that he will take in
crossing the Atlantic so that Admiral
Sampson's command may meet him, per.
haps days sail from New York. This,
however, is detail upon which Admiral
Sampson will report.
The entire squadron will be assembled
to honor the admiral, and when it falls in
with the Olympia will fire salute of II
guns and the drums will give four rufilel
and flourish. Admiral Sampson will be
expected to make the first call upon Ad.
miral Dewey, who will return it, and the
vessels will then proceed to New York
for the joint ceremonies.
1t is expected that the war department
will assign military officer to arrange
with the New York committee for the
participation of the army in the ceebra.
ton. Up to this time no selection has
been made.
1t is the expectation Of the Washington
reception committee that the sub-commit
tee it will send to New York will board
the Dolphin and meet the Olympia in the
outer bay Of New York. 1t has been sug
gested that possibly arrangements might
be made for a delegation Of the crew u
the Olympia to accompany the admiral
to Washington.
The committee has addressed letter K
the admiral requesting him to advise it al
early as possible of the date of his arrival
here, so that final arrangements can bt
made for meeting him in New York.

Editor Texarkanian:--If you will
allow space in your paper, | will
give you a few dots from Sulphur
township.
We are having some very dry
weather in this part Of the county
which I guess is the same in many
states. Our corn crop is cut off
about one third. Our cotton won't
turn out a third of a crop.
Most of the farmers have begun
to gather their crop, which will not
take very'long.
Our clever friend John WaIdrop,
is putting in a railroad from Black
Diamand, T. S. & n. R. R. to Bright
Star for the purpose of getting the
pine timber from Sulphur township
to Fort Lynn, in Beech hownship-
work is moving on very fast.
Bright Star is still coming to the
front, Baker Bros, of Atlanta,
Texas, are building a feather reno
vator which will be in operation by
the fifth. They claim they can put
a live goose or duck in their ma
chine and when the goose comes
out it will be picked, dressed, stuffed
and sacked-aIl done by one ma
chine.

The boycott has ever been consid-
cred un-Americau by fair-minded
men. Now, that a circuit judge
| has declared it unlawful and re.
strained those who would make use
of it, it is to be hoped it will not
again be resorted to by reasonable
men. Judge Henry Of Kansas City
granted an injunction, to prevent
walters from interfering with the
proprietor's business ID a boycott.
Some time since in New York, the
Buffalo Express case, the Political
Labor Alliance issued a circular de-
claring the Express a non-union and
unfair paper, and warning all mer'
chants not to advertise in its col
umns, and declaring the purpose OF
said Alliance not to patronize any
firm advertising in it. Other means
Of injuriug the business OF the pa,
per were resorted to. The Express
applied to the court for an iniuuc.
tion to restrain the bOyCOtters anC
prohibit the work they we're dong
to its injury, The injunction was
granted, and was supported by a
very positive opinion. A boycott
was declared to be an unlawful con
spiracy. All threats against per
sons doing a lawful act were held tC
be violations of the statute, all cir
culars and posters forming a part
of the boycotting machinery were
declared illegal, and the printing,
distribution and posting Of them,
were enioined. All banners carried
in the street for that purpose were
put in the same category of illegal
ity, and orders we're issued to the
police to remove them.

Rrnan-s Message 10 the Masses.

New York, Sept. 4-W. j. Bryan
sent this message to the working
men of New York today as a labor
day greeting
The laboring men will hndit
profitable to read the message that
Abraham Lincoln sent to congress
in the early years of the war in
which Lincoln warned his country
men against the attempt to put
capital on an equal footing with or
above labor in the structure Of
government. The attempt which
at that time alarmed Lincoln has
not progressed so far that laboring
men will do well to consider the
snbiect and apply such remedies as
may be necessary to restore the
government to its old founda lion.
Mayor Jones of Toledo sent the
following
My word of greeting to the
workers on this labor day is this:
Educate, agitate, read study think.
You are the people, the toilers, the
producers, Men, my brothers, men
the workers, ever reaping some
thing gnew. You produce all, why
then do you have so little, not be-
cause your brothers who produce
uaught and consume so much are
evil, but because of an evil system
of distributing the fruit of toll
"This uni ust competitive system
is all to be changed, and a most
Just and brotherly system set up in
its place. 1t will be done Just al.
soon as you, the workers, are ready
for it, educated to it. The power
is with the people under this gov
ernment. There is only one way to
get it, that is by destroying the
political parties through absolute
independent voting. Let no party
own you Be men, not republicans
nor democrats, just me Vote for
principle, not party. This is the
way to redeem.
