CONDEMNED IN MISSOURI ANT CONFISCATED IN
 NEW YORK.

Judge Clarke of St. Louis has con- victed and fined heavily a number of grocers for selling baking powders containing alum.
 The week before the Health Depart ment of New York seized a quantity of stuff being sold for baking powder which they found was made from alum mixed with ground rock, and dumped it into the river.
 The Health Authorities are thus talk ing effective means to prevent the in- troduction into our markets of in- furious substitutes in place of whole some baking powders.
 As alum costs only two cents 6 pound, there is great temptation for those manufacturers who make sub stitutes and imitation goods to use it.. Alum baking powders can be detected by the health authorities by chemical analysis, but the ordinary housekeep- Ter. whose assistance in protecting the health of the people is important, can not make chemical examination. She may easily know the alum powders, however. from the fact that they are sold at from ten to twenty cents for pound can. or that some prize-like spoon, or glass, or piece of crockery, or wooden ware-is given with the powder as an inducement.
 As the people continue to realize the importance of this subject and con- sumers insist on having baking powder of established name and character, and as the health auth critics continue their vigorous crusades, the alum danger will, it is hoped, finally be driven from our homes.

"I Want Everyone to Know How
 Completely It Cures Indigestion.
the Leeds Saturday Journal.

From the heeOS SdluTudy JOufnal.
 This shows the unselfish disposition of MT Hodge,of Orchard Grove, Ippleden, New ton Abbott, who, having been cured by Nogeler's Compound, wishes every other sufferer to know of the benefit he has re- ceived from this marvellous remedy. He telles his story as follows:
 Gentlemen-I find Nogeler's Compound a remedy above all others; for about this time last year l was in a thorough bad state of health, and could hardly drag one leg after the other. 1 had tried dozens of remedies advertised to cure indigestion and all its attendant evils, but was rapidly going from bad to worse, when 1 had the good fortune to be recommended to take Vogeler's Com pound. 1 did so without much faith, and am thankful to say it made a new man of me. I should like other people to know it's virtues and how completely it knocks un- der the worst forms of indigestion and dys- pepsia,- ,-(Signed.) George H. Hodge.
 Vogeler's Compound is the grandest rem edy of the century for all stomach disorders and liver and kidney troubles in both men and women. It is sold in 25c. and soc. sizes by all medicine dealers, and free sample of liberal size will be sent to any address in the country.

THE NIMBLE RHINoCERos.
Although Clumsy and UngainIy in Captivity, It Is Lively Enough
 in the Bush.


 Dr. E. G. Elliott, curator of zoology of the Field Columbian museum. Chi cago, lately spent some days in Wash ington reviewing and studying the large and valuable mass of Zoological material in the Smithsonian institu- tion, National museum, department of agriculture and the National Zoo About year agoDr. Elliot wrote and published work of great value on the fauna of North America north of the Mexican boundary and the Gulf ot Mexico, which proved great success, reports the Washington Post.
 During my trip through Africa l ex, perienced many surprises, and hardly a day passed but what some of my pre- conceived notions were dispelled. For instance, person contemplating a rhinoceros behind the bars of stout cage would very naturally suppose that these animals were the most un- wieldy, clumsy and awkward imagin- able, yet nothing could be further from the truth. On the high, rocky and rolling ground of East Africa they are as spry and nimble as goats, which animals they very much resemble in their actions. They jump about from place to place with surprising agility for an animal so bulky, and run with a rapidity that is marvellous.
 ''In this they differ from the ele- phant, for the latter, when alarmed, moves off in long, swinging trot. The country that I explored, Somaii- land and the lands to the west. abounds in the two-horned black rhi- noceros. The very large, white rhinoc- eros of South Africa of the days ot Roualleyn Gordon-Cumming, are al- most if not quite extinct, although the natives told us that such animals were to be found to the west of the country that we traversed. The rhinoceros does not see well, but is very keen of scent, and whenever he scents danger he charges down the wind. They have been known to charge right through a caravan. upsetting things on every hand. but continuing in a straight line until out of sight.
 ''The hippopotamus was only found in the Shebeyleh river, in the regions that we visited, and was scarce there. but wart hogs were everywhere in ev- idence. They are plucky animals. and one that I killed tried his best to get at me after 1 had wounded him so badly that he could not use his hind parts. He was a magnificent animal as he came out of the bush. with head and tail erect, and sniffing the air to locate the seat of danger. The open country of East Africa is the home ot the large hamadryad baboOn. Every hill is full of them. and the way they scold and chatter when a traveller passes their way would be amusing if it were not for the fact that they are at times dangerous, and believe they would make things interesting for the luckless hunter who should happen tC get caught among them without DrODrr means of defendino hims self"

GREEK MONASTERIES.
Interesting Facts About Some That Dot the Various Mounts of
 Their Country.

It is a firm belief of the eastern monks of the Greek church that God will not allow monastery to be burned. When the Russian monastery of St. Pantelemon at Mount Athos was burned few years ago the Greeks, who constitute the great majority of the 600 monks on the peninsula, main tained that their Russian brethren had brought the calamity on themselves because they had fire engines and eX- tinguishers and did not trust wholly in God. Now the neighboring Greek mon- astery at St. Paul which had no fire engines. has recently been utterly de- stroyed by fire, says the Chicago Daily News.
 The monastery of St. Paul was one of the more modern and less populous of the 20 monasteries which dot Mount Athos. Ii was erected in the four teenth century and had less than 60 inmates. But it's reliquary possessed many Byzantine objects of great in terest. the more remarkable being d Byzantine model of Herod's temple and silver cross three feet one inch in length. covered with jewels and ex- quisite miniature portraits of the saints in enamel The library consist ed of about 120 manuscripts, the ma iority in Slavic and few in Greek. Most of the monks came from the Ionian islands. and. though those is lands passed from the control of Great Britain in 1862, were commonly called "Englishmen" by their core ligionists.
 It is said that the monastery of St. Paul was the only one at Mount Athos which has ever been visited by a wom- an. The wife of d British ambassador landed from her yacht one day on it's tiny pier and insisted on entering the church. In consequence, the monks, relieving each other by relays, for 40 days and nights maintained a continu- ous service of prayer to purify the church from this contamination.

FRENCH FOND OF sNAILs.
Highly Esteemed Dainty That the Americans Are Slow to Ac-
 ouire q Taste For.


 French statisticians have discovereL that during last winter S00,O00 tons of snails were consumed in Paris. This indicates a renaissance for the snail, for although it has always been espe- cialIv esteemed by the French people it has fallen into disfavor for season or two past, owing to the fact that the culture of the snail has been taken up largely by spectators, who have aimed at quantity rather than quality in their production, states the New York Sun.
 Many of the snails sold in Paris real lv come from Burgundy and the Savoy districts, but are represented as from the vineyards of Dion and Macon. One of the methods of the speculating snail growers is to raise them in pens of tarred boards that prevent the mollusks from travelling far.
 Much depends on the proper culture of the snail. In ancient Rome the rais- CTS fed them on flour and wine, thus giving them fatness and flavor.
 Americans as class do not share the enthusiasm of the French as re- gards the snail The care that is nec- essary for their proper preparation ,debars them from the field of the aver age cook absolutely and great chefs fail sometimes if they have not the proper French blood in their veins. Even at the fashionable restaurants 1t is often impossible to obtain snails. When they are served they are tough and leathery and people wonder why they have ever been included in the lists of good things.
 At the French restaurants, the best of these establishments only, can one get snails cooked properly. and per- sons who have once tasted them re- turn again and bring friends whom they wish to surprise with q new dish
 "We serve quantities of snails each day" said we'll known French res taurateur. While Americans do not generally appreciate the snail, they are learning to regard them as quite ,up-to-date dish to order. The prepar- ation of the snail for cooking .equires care. They must first be taken from their shells with a little salt and washed in cold water many times, then drained and placed in a stew pan covered with water, salted. This method is called la Bourgogne, and Filipini, who for so many years was with DelmonicO's and was famous for cooking snails, declared it the best way in which to serve them.
 "A bunch of herbs is added to the snails in the stew pan With cloves and whole peppers tied in a bag. The snails are cooked until they fall from their shells; no longer. Then they are emptied, the tails clipped off and the shells are scrubbed thoroughly. Some shallots, parsley, butter and some chervil chopped fine are put in bowl with sifted bread crumbs and one glass of white wine and are mixed to paste.
 "The shells are partly filled with this paste, the snails replaced and more of the mixture used to fill. Then they are put in a baking dish and are

\ Nasty Practice.

A nasty practice is what the Chicago Inter Ocean calls the pasting of IL lpeated layers of wall paper, one upon another, thus covering up the filth and germs of disease that may be propagated in the very, ab- sorbent and decaying mass of flour paste, paper, animal glue, colors, etc
 They give opinions of eminent health of ficers and sanitarians, urging that suct practice should be stopped by legal enact ment, and also take occasion to say that these sanitarians recommend Alabastine as durable, pure and sanitary coating fol walls
 The Inter Ocean says: This is a very important question, and, as it costs noth ing to avoid this danger, why take any chances?"
 How much of the alarming spread ot smallpox and other diseases may be due te unsanitary wall coverings?

Leaves Her Missionary Field.

Mrs. E. c Miller, for long time a
missionary among the Indians of the
Yakima reservation, left last Monday
for her old home in Massachusetts,.
Mrs. Miller has been out here in the
missionary field for the past II years.
Her home has been at place about six
miles below Fort Simcoe, where the
latch string to her humble little cottage
always hung out to any and all Indians
Oftentimes she would take charge of the
services at the fort in the absence of the
minister. and no one could preach a
better sermon. At Christmas time she
never failed to remember the little
Indian boys and girls who were pegging
away at the industrial school, and they
all looked upon her as specially or
dained angel sent thither TO make them
happy. Mrs. Miller also stood high
among the people OF the Methodist
church here in town, who knew her we'll.
She leaves for much-needed rest back
to her old home among her former
friends and kinspeople.

Geological Survey.

A party composed of A. II. Sylvester
as chief, Ralph Cowgirl, NJ. o. Bennets
and NJ. H. Clark ASSISTANTS, Emerson and
Muller, camphands, leave today for the
Tietan basin and vicinity to begin the
survey of the Mt. AK quadrangle from
which they intend to produce topograph-
ical maps. Geological survey parties are
sent out every year by the government
at Washington for the purpose OF obtain
ing an exact picture as it were of all the
chief points of interest which bear upon
that particular section of the country.
The maps when completed, show exact
" the location of all streams of water,
of all lakes, roads and trails, and
houses, and they show also, where
the timber is thickest, where it has
been burned out and what kind
of timber it is. Upon the maps
are drawn what is known as contour
lines, which show the relief and eleva-
ton of that part of the country over
which they are traced. These maps are
on sale in Washington city and can be
had by writing to the Geological Survey
Department, Washington, d. c., for the
amount of five cents. In this connec-
ton it might be added that Geologist
Geo. Otis Smith has recently finished
report on the "Water Supply of Yakima
Valley and the Discussion of Artesian
Wells" This can also be secured by ad.
dressing the Geological Survey Depart
ment at Washington.
The Mt. AK quadrangle which will be
surveyed by A. H. Sylvester and party
embraces the district around Dumping
lake, Tietan basin and the Gold Hill
country. The map will doubtless be OF
interest to great many Yakima county
people.
