The Brownsville daily herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1897-1910, 1902-05-15
CONDEMNED IN MISSOURI
AND CONFTSCATED IN
NEW YORK.

Judge Clarke Of ST. Louis has
convicted aud fined heavily a num-
Der Of grocers for selling baking
powders containing alum.
The week before the Health De
parlment Of New York seized "a
quantity of stuff being sold for
baking powder which they found
was made from alum mixed with
ground rock aud damped it into
the river.
The Health Authorities are thus
taking effective means to prevent
the introduction into our markets
of injurious substitutes in place Of
wholesome baking powders.
As alum COSTS only two cents a
pound, there Is great temptation
for those manufacturers who make
substitutes and imitation goods, to
use il. Alum baking powders can
be detected by the health author
titles by chemical analysis, but the
ordinary housekeeper, whose assis-
lance in protecting the health of
the people is important, cannot
make a chemical examination She
may easily know the alum powd-
ers, however. from the fact that
they are sold at from ten to twenty
cents for pound can, or that some
prize-like a spoon, or glass, or
piece of crockery, or wooden ware
lis given with the powder as an
inducement
As the people continue to realize
the Importance Of this subject and
consumers insist on having baking
powder OF established name and
character, and as the health author
tiles continue their vigorous cru
sades, the alum danger will, it is
hoped, finally he driven frem our
homes.

RoosEvLLT's literary work was
not much known 10 the South
previous to his accession to the
presidency, but that portion Of his
writings in which be deuounces
jefferson Davis. the president Of
the Confederacy, as an "arch trail
tor, aud compares him with the
hated and despised Benedict Ar
mold, isnow acquiring considerable
notoriety. II may be though that
this particular literary effort is to
be put dowu-llke the act Of Gen.
Miles in having shackles Put upon
Davis when the latter was his
prlsoner-as "a sort Of youthful in
discretion Il is most probable in
deed, that If he were writing the
article today, instead Of then, he
would word il quite differently.

The volcano of Mount Pelee,
which wrought such awful ruin
and desolation in Martinique last
week, had been quiet for over half
century, until a few days before its
outbreak. Ii was considered prac-
tically extinct, and none ever
dreamed apparently that it would
ever develop into such an active,
fre-belching destroyer. The town
Of st. Pierre lay confdingly with
in its shadow, aud the residents
even made their summer homes
on its very slope, not far from its
yawning crater The awful result
Of such over-conideuce should
be a warning TO the dwellers in
lands where other apparently ex-
tinct volcanoes lie. They, too.
may be only sleeping, and, when
least expected, may belch forth
angry fire aud boiling lava TO
destroy the people who have built
homes near them. The recent
great activity Of the internal fires
OF Mother Earth shows that nm.
usual forces are working beneath
this crust on which man 80 serene
ly dwells, and none can tell where
next they may break forth.
