Astor had fled from the storm that was about to break It is unlikely, however that there will be any shedding of ex-Americau blood, for officers of the British navy are not often found fighting duels with cads.

WORK BEGUN
The Phoenix Mil on MuSkingum Street viii
Be Rebuilt.

The work of rebuilding the Phoenix
Mill on the property of the company
at the corner of Butler and Musking-
um, was begun yesterday.
The same lot has been used for mill
ing purposes for over 60 years and the
structure now helng built will be the
fourth to occupy it, the others having
all been destroyed by fire. The loca-
tion on account of the water power is
a good one, and the proprietors have
decided to rebuild.

the way are uninju"ci l. r'of te5un yes
terday. The forebay will be repaired
first and when it is completed the erec-
tion of the mill proper will be begun
and pushed to completion. The new
structure will be modern and up-to-
date in every respect, but with more
economical arrangement. A smaller
building than before will be possible
However, the capacity will not be di.
minished and will very likely be in
creased.

Protect Our Food

The doctors inform us that alum is
poison, and that alum baking powders
should be avoided because they make
the food unwholesomei Prominent hygien
ists, who have given the matter most
study, regard these powders as an evil
that should be suppressed by state &C
ton. In MINI. and Wis. alum powders
are not permitted TO be sold unle - 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 reg
uations 10 prohibit the use OF alrm in
bread altogether.
Are not the people OF other states, as
well as those OF MINI. & Wis. entitled to
warning OF n danger which Is apparently
menacing them at close hand, and isn't
the whole country entitled TO absolute
protection, as the people OF the district
of Columbia are protected by legislation
which is entirely prohibitive2
Until we can have protection in the
form OF a statute, how can our state
boards OF health, state analysts or food
commissi ons better serve the public
than by publishing in the newspapers
from time to time the name Of the bak-
ing powder which they find to be made
from alum2
Meantime, it will aid the housewife
in designating the alum powdersto re-
member that all powders sold at 25c or
less per pound are Of this dangerous class
Pure cream OF tartar powders are usually
sold at 40 & so cent pound.
