ployed.
Superintendent of Machinery Henry
Schlacks has returned from a trip to
salida where he examined sites for the
new buildings. No announcement as
to the definite size or number of the
buildings to be erected has been made
but officers Of the road say that they
will be sufficient In capacity not only

portions of locomotives.

the road between Denver and Pueblo.
The next move to bring the main line
to standard gauge will be to remove
the third rail between Pueblo and Sa

500 new freight cars now building in
eastern shops are completed.
Coal chutes now on the site of the
new shops are being torn down and

The Health Department of New

cheap baking powder. which 1t found
In that city. Attention was attracted
TO It by the low price at which 1t was
being sold in the department stores
Samples were taken and the chemist
Of the Health Department reported
the stun to be AN alum POWDER
which analysis showed to be compos-
I'd chiefly of alum and pulverixed
rock.
The powder was declared to be dan
gerous to health. and several thou
sand pounds were carted to the ofIal
dock and destroyed. 1t is unsafe to
experiment with these so-calisd
cheap articles Of food. They are
sure to be made from alum, rock. or
other injurious matter. In baking
powders. the high class, cream Of tar
tar brands are the most economical.
because they go farther in use and are

A YANKEE FROM RUSSIA.
Says We Must Have Reciprocal
Treaty, and Get In on the
Ground Floor.

New York, Dec. 7.-Enoch Emory,
wealthy merchant OF Russia, who, 35
years ago, left his home in the fishing
town of Gloucester, to engage in bus
mess with a native merchant in a
Siberian town at the mouth of the
Amoor river, is in this city. He de-
clares the Russian trade demands ev-
erything American, from a steel
twin-screw steamer to an American
shoe.
What the United States and Rus
sia need now and must have" said
Mr.. Emory, ''is a new commercial
treaty. Two countries, each of which
has the warmcst and friendliest feel
ing for the other, have not time to
bicker over sugar, oil or anything
else. There is country that needs
our machinery, our products of every
sort. The people want it from US
rather than from any other country
of the world, and we should arrange
it so that we could supply them. We
must have reciprocal treaty, and
get into Russia on the ground floor

Mississippi State News
Anti-wbipping Order.

The Supreme Court recently de-
cided that the convicts in the State
penitentiary could not be whipped
in any sense of the word, and the
court held that the statute which
provides that the board of control
may provide for "coporea" punish
ment does not mean that the board
NAV authorize convict to be
whipped with the lash or strap. The
court says that the lash cannot be
laid upon a citizen, and that the cor
poreal punishment designed by the
statute is solitary confinement and
the like. This decision of the court
will call for a revision of the pres
ent rules governing prison disci-
pline, and in view of the disastrous
consequences in the case of the negro
Oliver the board will doubtless take
the matter up at once and revise the
rule which has hitherto allowed the
sergeants to apply the lash to refrac-
tory convicts.

BOSTON CATTLE QUARANTINE.
No Reply Yet Received from British
Officials in Regard to Re
auested Notifications.

Boston, Dec. s.-No reply has been
received as yet as to the cablegram
sent to the British government by
Acting Consul Clipperton. expressing
the desire of steamship men and cat
tie shippers that its quarantine
against the shipment of cattle from
New England be modified SO to per-
init shipments from Portland of
western Canadian cattle. Meanwhile
New England cattle trade is at
standstill Advices from Washington,
however, to the effect that the Brit
ish authorities have requested an offi-
cial statement regarding the foot and
mouth disease in New England from
the United States government, and its
opinion as to the wisdom of allowing
cattle to be loaded at Portland, give
reason to hope that some moditica'
ton of the order may soon be made.
DIR. Salmon, of the United States
bureau of animal industry, said that
it had been his intention to have the
work of slaughtering the affected cat
tie begun by Tuesday, but the heavy

AFTER HIGH-BRED CATTLE.
Spending Big Money In
the United Kingdom for High
Class Stock.

London, Dec. THE last few
months have found in the United
Kingdom an unprecedented number
of American buyers of thoroughbred
cattle, whose purchases of high-class
breeding stock aggregate many thou
sands of pounds. A number of the
animals bought are intended for ex-
hibition at the ST. Louis exposition.
The prices paid range from s2,1oo to
over S6,250 per head. Scores of high
priced bulls and cows have been
shipped during the summer and fall.
Among the buyers now here is c. E.
Marvin, of Lexington, KY, who will
take back 25 thoroughbreds in May
and July j. S. Goodwin, of Chicago,
has purchased a number of Angus
breeders, and the Armours' agent is
sending 100 Herefords to the United
States. A number of purchases also
have been made of tiny Dexter and
Kerry cattle in Ireland, the breeding
of which has recently become quite
the fashion in England under the
patronage of Lady Lansdown and
other titled fanciers.

Harrisburg, ILL.,, Dec. s.-William
Boatright, living ten miles west OF
this city, while going through the

bird discovered that he was no match
for Mr.. Boatright. who was armed
with a club, it started to fly, but the
brush was so thick and its wings so
large it could not rise. Mr.. Boat
right quickly grabbed it by the legs
and held on till his brother came to
his assistance, when they tied its
legs and wings and carried it home
and safely Gagged it. The bird meas
ured eight feet and one inch from

The Former Speaker of the House
of Representatives Passes
Away in Washington.
MEMBERS OF HIS FAMILY PRESENT.
Brief Sketch of One of the Most Force
full and ResourcefuI ParIiamentarians
of His Day Served in Congress Eleven
Years and Was Twice Elected Speaker
of the House.

Washington, Dec. Former Speak
er Thomas B. Reed died at 12: 10
o'clock Saturday morning of Bright's
disease after six days illness.
The hope of his recovery enter
tanned by his physicians began to
wane at $50 o'clock Saturday night
when the last bulletin on his condi-
ton was issued. 1t announced that a
decided turn for the worse had be-
gun, and that the functions of the
kidneys had almost been suppressed
From that time he sank rapidly, and
at II o'clock the doctors announced
that his death during the night was
inevitable.
Mr.. Reeds family was with him.
The end was without pain.
Mr. Reed reached Washington Sun
day. having come to attend to some
matters in the United States supreme
court. He was at the capitol Monday
visiting with friends and former as
sociates in congress and witnessed
the convening of the second session
of the Fifty-seventh congress.
Complained of Gastric Distress.
Apparently he was enjoying good
health, but later in the day he called
on DR.. F. A. Gardner and complained
of gastric distress.
Symptoms of appendicitis appeared
though his condition was not consid-
cred alarming. A trained nurse re-
mained with him throughout Tuesday
night, and the patient showed signs
of improvement.
Mrs. Reed and daughter, Miss Kit
tie, arrived Wednesday, and have re-
mained with Mr.. Reed at the Airing
ton hotel since.
On Thursday the physicians an
nounced that the appendical symp-
toms were abating, but that kidney
trouble had developed, giving more
serious aspect to the case.
A Feeling Toast.
While the former speaker was dy'
ing the Gridiron club was holding
its first banquet of the congress ses'
sion in the hotel below. Shortly be-
fore midnight it was announced that
Mr.. Reed was dying. President
Wvnne made a feeling reference to
Mr.. Reed, who had been the guest
at many Gridiron banquets, and MaJ
John NJ. Carson, the correspondent
of the Philadelphia Ledger, who had
known Mr.. Reed for 30 years, spoke a
few words in praise of him. The clut
and its guests drank final toast to
Mr.. Reed. Before the glasses were
emptied he was dead.
Fought His Battles DER Again.
His mind was active, but 1T did mol
work clearly. He wandered to the
scenes of his boyhood and later went
to the notable fights he had in the
house. He spoke portions OF his
great speeches, and for moment OF
two imagined that he was IN the
sneakers chair and was presiding
over the house.
At five o'clock in the afternoon MT
Reed became incoherent. lie was un-
able to answer a direct question. ano
from that time until IL o'clock was
in q state of semi-consciousness.
At IL O'Clock he relapsed into un'
consciousness.
