Baking
Powder
Economy

The manufacturers Of Royal
Baking Powder have always
declined to produce a cheap
baking powder at the sacrifice
of quality.
The Royal is made from
pure grape cream of tartar, and
is the embodiment of all the
excellence possible to be attained
in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs
only a fair price, and is cheaper
at its price than any similar
article.

Samples Of mixtures made in imitation of baking
powders, but containing alum, are frequently dis
tributed from door to door, or given away in
grocery stores. Such mixtures are dangerous
to use in food, and in many cities their sale is
prohibited by law: Alum is a corrosive poison, and
all physicians condemn baking powders containing it.

POPE LEO XIII AND CHINA.

The following letter of His Holiness
Leo Kill, concerning recent events in
China, will be interesting
Your Eminence:-Beside filing our
soul with deep grief because of the
shedding of so much human blood, the
cruel events that are occurring in China
make us tremble with anxiety for the
fate of the vicariates apostolic as well
as for the missionaries and Christians
exposed to the severest trials and even
to the sacrifice of their lives.
THAT divine clemency may propiti-
ously incline toward these unfortunates
and avert the disaster dreaded by all,
the college of the Propaganda and
other religious Roman communities
have offered prayers in common since
the first evil news
AS danger and suffering are on the
increase, we consider it timely and ne
cessary that our city should participate
more actively in these prayers
Consequently, Your Eminence, it is
our heartfelt desire that you remind all
communities of the necessity of offer
ing humble prayer to the Most High
that He may inspire all with thoughts
OF harmony and peace and may be
pleased to end all ruin and massacre.
And to increase the efficacy of these
prayers in behalf of our distant breth-
rem, we impart to all from the depths
of our heart the apostolic benediction.

HAS ARCHBISHOP KEANE BEEN
APPOINTEDP

There is still room for misunder-
standing about the appointment of
Archbishop Keane to the archdiocese
of Dubuque, says the Catholic Citizen.
No official announcement of the APP
pointment has come from Rome. a
confirmation of the appointment has
not been received from the apostolic
delegate at Washington. This latter
step, we are told, is necessary. The
Northwestern Catholic recently pub-
lished a letter received by Rev. Father
Fowler, a prominent IOawa priest, from
Cardinal Satolli, in the matter The
letter is as follows:
Rome, July 80, 19OO.-Mr Dear Rev.
Father Fowler: L received your favor
by very kind and pious lady of your
city 1t was certainly a great pleas
ure to hear from you and learn the
news from the United States, but it
would have been a still greater pleas
ure to have seen you personally at
Rome. The Sacred Congrega-
ton of Propaganda appointed your
Archbishop, Mgr. Keane, with my
heartiest good will. L hope also after
a short time your city will be the see
of new bishop. 1 remain, with best
regards, your sincerely.

In the same country priests belonging

VI. We thus see that from the earii-

has been customary to call priests

early and medieval papa. all testify
to this custom.
VII. Now, if we search to know what

ORIENTAL WAR.

The war in China has brought forth
many diversified and conflicting o2in-
ions. From that of the peaceable hui
man treatment UP to the utter eXter-
mination of the race every shade of
policy has been advanced. The effects
not only of the opinions advanced, but
of the actual spirit manifested by the
/ great powers now on Chinese soil will
serve to embitter the natives of the
/ Celestial Empire against western civill-
cation which assumes the guise Of
! Christian principles. D. c. Boulger, an
able English writer and leader in
the world of diplomacy, in an article
in the Fortnightly asks for nothing
short of IAN indelible act of vengeance
and retribution." With him might is
right and revenge his war cry. He
would not like the Good Master to preach
peace to his enemies, but join the howl
ing mob who cried, Cruelty Him.
Here is how he expresses his venomous
spirit:
Let us hope that TO false SEN
timentality will hold back the arm of
righteous wrath, and that of Pekin as
a city there will be made no end. In
its palaces may there be desolauon,
and let the plowsheare pass over its
polluted streets. The complete destruc-
ton of Pelkin alone will strike terror TO
the heart of the Chinese race, and at
the same time it will simplify the solu-
ton of the Chinese problem.
If we have lost the capacity of being
vindictive. and the manner in which we
have carried on the war against the
Beers makes it look as if we had, let us
hand the task over to the japanese, |
who will do it in a thoroughly Oriental
fashion, and wipe out the murderous
brood of Tuan Tung, with the she-devil |
of an Empress at their head"
Even the Boxers, who no more repre- |
sent the real Chinese sentiment, any |
more than the Anarchists do those of |
their country. could not be more blood |
thirsty in their designs to shut out and |
get rid of their rivals than Boulger in |
his plan of campaign. The lost capac- |
ity of being vindictive in the war |
against the Beers is a huge joke. The |
and not justice, in a peaceable republic !
is worse than vindictive. Sympathy for !
the Boer will exist in honest hearts, |
when the greed and inhumane treat !
ment of the prosecutors will be con- !
demned by nations struggling for free
dom.
The Boxers in China like the An
archists the world over are brutal and
savage, but to punish the innocent with
the guilty is not Christian, not up to
the level of our boosted civilization.
If all we read of the looting and de-
of property in Pelxin, together
with bayoneting of innocent babies be !
true. well indeed might it be said that
the last days of the nineteenth century,
by bloody wars, are not surpassed in
cruelty in any past age, and all under
the mask of civilization.

TRUTH ABOUT THE BOXERS.

A Catholic missionary, in a letter
from Pekin, gives the following ac-
count of the Boxers:
The Boxers are a truly diabolical
sect; invocations, lamentations, obses-
sion and even possession are common
among them. The learned may attri-
butte their extraordinary doings to
magnetism or hypnotism, or may look
upon them as victims of hysteria and
fanaticism; but we see in them the
power of the devil.
The hatred of the name Christian
drives them to the greatest excuses.
Established, as they are, in every viii
lage, they unite on a day specified to
attack any one Christian settlement.
On Saturday. May u, they burned the
village of Kao-lo and massacred more
than seventy persons; several other
villages were burned Immediately af-
terward The Christians took flight,
leaving all their worldly possessions be
hind them. The city of Pekin itself is
not safe; Boxers are there in great
numbers, and everywhere placards are
posted announcing the burning of
churches and the destruction of Eu-
ropeans The movement. seems to be
by those high in authority,
and converges from all quarters toward
Pekin. The standards of the rebels
bear such inscriptions as: Protect the
Dynasty Europeans; by Order of the
Emperor, Let us Destroy Europeans,
Danger, Therefore, Is Imminent"
We have taken all the precautions
dictated by prudence. I have written
letters to all the upper mandarins. At
my request, troops have been sent to
a number of Christian settlements; but
they are nearly all inadequate and
some are ill-disposed. Nevertheless, 1
believe there would be greater evil done
them.
In our pressing necessity, | have or
dered public prayers for peace, which
God alone can grant. Besides, 1 have
written an official letter to the foreign
who has convoked the diplo-
matte corps. 1t has been unanimous
ly decided to force the Chinese govern |
ment to prompt action under the penal |
ty of calling in foreign troops. Despite |
the danger, all are ready at their posts. |
The conduct of the Christians is admi-
rable; apostacy is proposed to them,
but they prefer flight, ruin, even
death. Several catechumens have re-
ceived the baptism of blood.-From the
number of the annals of
the Propagation of the Faith"

TEMPORAL POWER OF THE POPE

The House of Savoy, says the editor
of the Western Waterman, was al
ways friendly to the temporal power.
Neither Victor Emmanuel nor his son.
Humbert, relished the position they
occupied in respect to the Church. If
Queen Margaret had her way the body
of Humbert would now be in the Su-
perga, and not in the Pantheon.
Women count for a great deal in the
present state of italian politics. The
Queen Mother is in favor of a recon-
Citation with the Pope. The noble
Princess CIotilda in her solitude prays
for peace. The next Queen of Italy,
the Duchess of Aosta, Helen of Or
leans, is a devoted adherent of the Pa
pacy. Mari Pia of Portugal the only
member of the House of Savoy with
whom Leo XIII can hold diplomatic
relations, years for peace. They will
raise their voices around the throne of
the young King. in doleful pleading for
reconciliation. 1t would seem that the
end of the long estrangement were
near, and that the moral union of Italy
will at last follow the material and
political union. VIII the coming re-
public give the Pope his city of Rome
and the States of the Church Will the
House of Savoy be spared in the gem
eral debacle Nous verrons.
