When an article or preparation is offered for food, prudent consumers will satisfy themselves from an official source as to its purity and wholesomeness. Was there ever so high and decisive test of the baking powders as that by the Government Chemists at the Worlds Columbian Fair?

The States Watered Liquor.

BARNwELI, S. c.. October 29.-The
mOnstrOsity Produced by Tillman's per-
version of the Gothenburg plan of
liquor selling is resulting in general
political nausea even among the faith
ful, except as to those whose stOmachs
are unusually strong and 100 proof
against political and moral putrescencc
of all kinds.
1t is remarked as somewhat peculiar
that QUITS, who has anatomiZed the
dispensary skeleton with the minute
ness Of detail of Dcfoe in his account
of the London plague, has not touched
on the watering OF the liquor. Col. j..
j. Brown: of this place, and another
wrote letter last year OF the year
before to Commissioner Vance, inuuir-
ing as to the truth of the report that
they watercd the whisley before bot
Ting.
Vance replied, Eyes, it was true. but
that the water was chemically pure,
being carefully boiled before adding to
the liquor" He said, "Thcy added
one barrel of water to every four bar
rels of 100 proof liquor" The natural
question that then arose but which
MI. Vance never solved was, Who
got the profit on the 100 gallons of
water to every 400 gallons Of whiskcy So
treated?
In the board of controls accounts

not, where did this immense sum Of

This Settles 1t.

as eacls century draws near it's close
there is much controversy as to when
the next century will begin.
For more than IL year past there has
been n lively dispute over the question
whether the twentieth century will be-
gin January l, 1900. or January l, 1901.
Newspapers and Magazines have pub
lished innumcrable communications OH
this subject; it has been discussed
around thousands of family firesidcs and
by many debating societies. Strange
to say, the disputants have been about
equally divided between the two dates.
We say this is strange, for it would
seem to be very easy matter to de-
terminc when Il century begins.
1t is cause for congratulatiOn that
the Chicago Tribune has made publi-
cation which will go far toward settling
this mooted question. The Tribune
appealed to Professor W. ii. NJ. Chris
tie, director of the Royal Observatory,
at Greenwich, for an authoritative
statement as to when the next century
will begin, and has received in reply
the following cablegram from that
eminent authority:
Royal Observatory, Greenwich, Lon
don.
October 81, 1900.
Editor of the Tribune:
form you that the twentieth century
begins on January 1, 1901. 1t has been
generally agreed to call the first year
of the Christian era Ammo Domini 4,
not A. D. Q, and consequently the
second century begins with A. ID. 101,
100 years after the beginning of the
first year, and so on for the succeeding
centuries.
The question was fully discussed ut
the Century dinner at Glasgow on April
Is, 1870, when the Lord Dean of the
Guild, after quoting various author
tiles, gave his decision as arbitcr that
the nineteenth century did not COM
mence till January 1. 1901. An account
OF this meeting was printed for private
circulation at the time. Yours faith
fully, w. ii. NJ. CHRISTIE,
Astronomer Royal.
1t appears, then. that the scientific
world is agreed that the twentieth cen-
tury begins January 1, 1901.
Suppose we let it go ut that and re-
.i0ice in the assurance that we will have
