ROYAL
Baking Powder

The strongest, purest, most efficient and
wholesome of leavening agents. Not lowest
in price, yet the most economical; indispens-
able to all who appreciate the best and most
healthful food.
Our country is enjoying prosperity almost
unsurpassed in its history.
For every one there is money enough to
buy that to eat which is pure, sound, good,
wholesome.
Why should we use cheap, impure, I'M
healthful articles of food? There is no
economy in them; they endanger the health,
they may cost life. There are reported
almost daily cases of sickness caused by cat
ing cake, buildings or biscuit made with the
cheap, alum baking powders
In all articles for food buy and use only
the best. The good health of the family is
of first consideration.

Better Demand for silver.

London, Jan. 23.-The idea that the
Indian government will shortly have to
buy silver has stimulated the demand. In
dications that the silver reserve of the
Indian currency department has been
heavily depleted and will be further re-
duced are found in the large sales, teie-
graphic transfers upon India, the further
ear marking of gold Tor the account OF
the Indian government and the dispatch
of gold direct to India. According TO the
Statist, should further 2,000,000 pounds
in gold be sent to India during the next
two months the silver holdings of the
Indian government will be probably re-
duced to about four crores. Before such
figure is reached purchases of silver for
coinage ought to be made, unless the In
dian government is prepared to incur
risks which might bring disaster.
The Statist insists that the government
must buy silver without delay and have
it coined as quickly as possible and reas-
ons that India ought not to be subjected
to further trials on top Of the famine
also pointing out that if troubles occur
on the Afghanistan frontier silver alone
will be usabie.

SeattIe's Luck.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The supervising
architect said to Representative Jones
today ne would recommend $4,000 or
100000 MS the very lowest limit for a
public building at Seattle, and that in his
Judgment million dollar building should
be constructed there, and he would assure
the committee there should be million
dollar building erected there.
Surgeon General Sternberg stated TO
Representative Jones that while Vancou-
yer was the best place for a military hos
pital in the state of Washington he will
advise no appropriation for a hospital,
as he does not think ~ will be needed at
all. Mr.. Jones stated he will still work
with the committee in an endeavor to Sc
cure a favorable report on his bill for a
hospital.

nnlf Rates on Grass seeds.

st. Paul, Jan. 24.-It is announced that
500 roads will, on February 4, put into
execution half tariff rates on grass seeds,
clover seeds and dwarf Essex grade seeds
to points on their lines in Minnesota,
North Dakota and Montana. This new
rate applies to both car and less than car
shipments. The new rate was brought
about because of desire on the part of
railroad officials to plant with tame
grasses the natural grass regions.

Gold Rushed in Again.

New York, Jan. 23.-The tinancier
says:
The New York clearing house banks
added no less than ST. $4,000 to their
cash holdings last week, bringing the to-
tai cash on hand to 1915, 200, an
amount larger than they have had in their
vaults for months past. The surplus re-
serve fund rose about seven and one-half
millions of dollars and stands at present
at $24, 1884, 75. This contrasts quite sharp
ly with the actual deficit existing 90
days ago.
The rapid recovery is due OF course TO
the return OF money from the interior and
TO the disbursement of treasury funds
into active channels OF commerce.
Counting the fifteen millions of gold ex-
ported it appears that no less than $46,-
100000 in cash has come into New York
banks in six days. The fact that surplus
reserves are correspondingly larger is due
to the growth of deposits which are about
twenty-seven and a half millions heavier
than two months ago. This, of course, nee
estates enhanced cash reserve.

Frankfort, KY, Jan. 22.-The grand
jury has indicted ex-Congressman Dav-
id g. Colson, who was colonel of the
Fourth Kentucky regiment, for murder on
two counts. The first charges the willful
murder of Lieutenant Ethelbert Scott,
one OF the principals in Tuesdays triple
tragedy, and the other with the murder
OF Luther w. Demarree, one of the by
ISLANDERS who was killed. The grand jury
was granted a further extension of time
and it is understood that more testimony
is TO be heard as to the killing of Charles
Julian, the other bystander. Colson's at
torneys will ask for bail and Colson will
testify. Among those who have volun-
teered their legal services in Colson's de-
Tense are Congressman Bailey of Texas,
Congressman Houck of Tennessee and
Attorney General \. f. Mynatt of Ten
nessee.
Colonel Colsons friends expected only
manslaughter charge. The weapons
used by the combatants were turned over
to the court. Colson's mail from all over
the country, as well as from Washington
City, Kentucky and Tennessee, is very
heavy. Many society women have writ.
ten him words OF sympathy. Some are
strangers. Colson is batchelor and
largely interested in business i'll Kentucky
and Tennessee.

The Payne mine asks for protection,
as it claims union miners in the SLOGAN

The ore shipped over the Kaslo & Slo-
can railway for the year 1899 was 25,-
700,224 pounds, which shows a decrease
of 1862 1891 from that of 1898, says the

A new lead furnace has been blown in

B. c. in Summit camp, the well known
mine which is the property of the same
syndicate which controls the Republic
mine in Republic, Wash, and the Payne
mine at Sandon, B. c., shipped three
carloads to Trail. It is a trial ship
ment, but the value of the ore has been
so well determined that the manage
ment has little doubt of the outcome.
The ore averages about $40 per ton. The
other shipper Joining the rapidly grow
ing list today was the Winnipeg mine,
in Wellington camp. One car went to

ever in its history.
There is a report that work is to be
resumed on the Flag Hill within few
days, but this is not official.
The Stray Horse is giving employ
ment to six men divided into two
shifts. The crosscut is in 4S feet.
The Blacktan is demonstrating its
title to the name of mine. 1t is one of
the big ones of the camp. The winze
which was lately started in the rich ore
shoot is down 80 feet
The Delta shaft is full of quartz, and
all is not taken out. The ore ranges in
value from SO to $40 per ton. The shaft
Is SO feet in depth.
AT the Tom Thumb two shifts are
sinking the new working shaft and two
shifts are working in the south drift on
the 150-foot level. The face of the drift
is in quartz and there is several feet
left on the wall.
The south drift OF No. ledge on the

The rest is expected within the next

an extensive affair, being 210x90 feet.
Sixty men are on the Republic pay
roll. Some stopping is going on from
No. 3 tunnel. The ore is assorted and
sacked and will be sent to a smelter as
soon as teams can be had to haul it to
Grand Forks. There is nearly 5000
sacks of ore ready. 1t is difficult to es
innate anything like it's real value
Some of it is fabulously rich and all is
of high grade. 1t will undoubtedly be
the richest shipment ever made from
the mine.
