to White Hall to secure some household
goods belonging to Mrs. Clay.

Disastrou. Fire 1t Pistsbars.

Pittsburg, April 3O.--Fire at the cor
ner Of Carson and Seventeenth streets,
South Side, resulted in the loss Of one life,
q property loss estimated at $225, 900, con-
summed over dozen buildings and render
ed score of families homeless. The
flames were discovered in the basement
of the four story department store Of
George f. Lorsch 4 Brother and in a
short time the entire building was burn
ing fnriously. It was in ruins within 30
minutes.
A panic ensued among the customers
and the employees which resulted in what
started at first report that eight per-
sons had persisted. This was happily found
untrue after the fire had been controlled,
the only fatality being the burning to
death Of Mrs. Kate Donley's 3 year old

ALUM BAKING POWDER.


A case In the courts Of Davenport

fixed the status Of the alum baking

II seems that The Pure Food Co,
Of Chicago, sold to arm Of grocers In
Davenport quantity Of baking pow.
der called ''Pure Food Baking Pow
DER" The grocers sold some Of Il,
ascertained that It was an alum pow
der. returned the powder unsold to
the manufacturers and refused to pay
for It. The manufacturers sued to col
lect.
The case was tried before Judge
Bollinger and q jury. Attorneys Neal
Z Neal, and q. A. Finger defended the
grocers, II was shown that the pow.
der contained alum. The defence
claimed, consequently, that It was in
furious to health and that trafic in
II was against public policy. Expert
Testimony was introduced to show that
alum when taken into the stomach
would influence the gastric juices to
the detriment Of the person using It.
The jury rendered verdict for the
defendants, which means that alum
baking powders are deleterious to
health, their sale illegal In the state.
The pure food laws Of the state are
upheld.

new Medical Discovery.

DIR. Charles L. Villar, an Argentine
army surgeon. has just published re-
port Of the treatment Of SO cases Of
Tuberculosis with his serum at the mil
itary hospital On New York city. The
treatment extended from December 2,
1900. to April 20, 1901.
tuberculosis in the early stage, says
DR.. Villar. was cured within 40 days
Patients whose cases were more ad-
vanced all were cured except those who
could offer very little resistance to the
disease.
DR.. Villar did not divulge the charac-
ter Of his serum, but 1t is a yellow fluid.
Hypodermic injections are made, vary
ing in quantity every second, third,
fourth or fifth day, according to the
individual cases.
Argentine physicians have been in
vited to Investigate the alleged cure
and the serum treatment.
DR.. George F. Shrady Of New York
city. In an interview published in the
New York Herald commenting upon
the dispatch, said that the medical pro-
fession did not place much confidence
In the serum treatment OF tuberculosis.
He said;
"The medical profession now holds
after centuries Of experiments, that the
proper treatment for tuberculosis il a
change to dry, pure air. The impress
sion that men are not cured Of con.
sumption is prevalent and an errone-
GUS one. There have been many thous-
ands OF cures. The fact that DR.. Villar
does not give the. formula Of his rem
edy would prejudice the medical pro-
fession against It. A remedy designed
to benefit the human race should be as
free as abr and water"
