Baking Powder
Makes the food more qCbolssome, and more
uutritious to botb brain and muscle.

I have given the Training Table
to the Cornell University for five
years very satisfactorily, and am
certain that much of the success
has depended upon the quality OF
articles used. In baking powder,
l use the Royal, for it is undoubt-
eddy the best. I have occasionally

there is but one always reliable,

John Armstrong, son OF Mr..

1t developes that while Admiral
Togo was engaged in bottling the
mouth of Port Arthur he was also
Idoing other things. The blowing
| I'D of the Admiral Mararoff's flag
ship was due to mine laid by
the enemy.
The Russian feet at Port Ar
thur is well nigh annihilated, and
Russian dispatches still Insist that
all their disasters are due to the
work of their own stupidity in not
knowing where their mines are
concealed in the harbor.
The patient farmer is the one
that is most certain to accomplish
the most. We will have abund-
ance of good weather by and by.
At any rate, there's nothing gain
ed by complaining Of the unsea-

Although the Delaware peach
crop is reported as being entirely
destroyed by the recent freezing
weather, Delaware peaches will
be in the market the coming sea-
son just as if freezing conditions
had never prevailed in that State.
1t is difficult to down the Della

Palmer, of the North Wheeling

Palmer as a nurse.
There seems to be a scarcity OF
carpenters in the city just at the
present time. We fail to account
for the insuficiency, as any Or
binary "saw and hatchet' car
penter receives $3.50 for nine
hours labor, and if you happen
to employ one on Saturday eight
hours is the limit. We advise the
rising generation to secure a kit
of tools at once and get some
carpenter to take a day off and
teach them the trade.

of any other mine ana speaks volumes for the richness of the property. Labor is mostly American born, and the com pany will employ no man who cannot speak English fairly. This is sound precaution. as a miner unable to un- derstand the language in common use is in danger himself and a menace to his fellow workers. Miners are paid the regular Bisbee scale, s3.50 and s4 per shift of eight hours, the higher wages going to shaftmen. The men 10 their own timbering as a rule, and the class of labor is unusually good, as to intelligence and faithful work.

 Denver. Colorado. May GA bar rel of whiskey was promised if the construction men of the Denver. Northwestern and Pacific Railroad pulled the tracks of the line into Rol- linsville six hours ahead of the schedule Saturday. When the barrel was emptied. patriotic citizens threw open their doors and the 125 track layers had more liquid reward. The celebration was not quite so exten- sive today, but the same brand of en- thusiasm was pushing forth literally and the Fourth of July never will see anything better. When the track was still six miles away, a committee of citizens went out to invite the workers to a liquid feast when the road entered the town limits Their offer was accepted and, in spite of protests from the foreman, the track gang worked twenty-four hours at stretch until they reached the bar rel.

Devoted to
 EXHIBITS OF MINES
 and MetalIurgy
ALL THE MINERALS OF THE EARTH AND THEIR PRODUCTS
 ARE SHOWN.
Exhibit is Scientific and System is Perfect-Dritine, Blasting, Timber ing, Hoisting, Operations. Drainage, illumination and Ventilation are
 Shown in a Comprehensive Manner.

St, Louis, May 6.-occupying a conspicuous location on the south and west of the liberal arts building and separated from the imposing edifice by the sunken gardens, stands the magnificent structure devoted to mines and metalurgy. The building is the largest provided for mining ex hibits at any exposition. The display within it's walls is interesting and em- braces ores and associated minerals industrial minerals, metals, quarrying mining and reducing machinery and appliances. The exhibit is scientific ally arranged with regard to detail, and the system is perfect.
 Each state of the United States makes a splendid showing and nearly every exhibit is shown in a pavilion constructed of a characteristic min eral, stone or prodcts of the state Particularly noticeable are the copper displays of Montana and northern Michigan, the coal exhibits of Penn sylvania, West Virginia, Indiana and other states. the lead and zinc of Mis- souri and the variety of ores and min erals found in Colorado, Idaho, Cali fornia and other states of the west. There are exhibits of silver from Mon tana. various jewels from North Caro- lima, gold from California and onyx and priceless marbles from Missouri, Vermont and other states of the Union.
 One of the largest groups in the building consists of ores and minerals in their rough-hewn sawed or polished states. This group also contains specimens of the various classes of rocks, clays and other minerals in- cluding gems and precions stones, nat ural mineral paints, luminants and waters. There are also systematic collections in geology mineralogy crystalology and paleontology.
 In the foreign department are many notable exhibits. Mexico has for the most part collection of minerals and metals gotten up by the different states of that country, the whole being displayed in magnificent cases. Canada is well represented, as also are Cape Colony, Brazil, Germany and Japan France shows asphalt and cements, Honduras an elaborate col lection of opals, New South Wales copper and tin, and South Africa dia- monds in their rough and polished state.
 The machinery connected with min ing and quarrying operations. inciud- ing drilling, blasting. timbering and hoisting operations, drainage. illumi- nation and ventilation, are shown in a comprehensive manner. Contiguous to the exhibition palace there is an area of twelve acres devoted to the display and operation of exhibits too large or too noisy for the inside of the building. Here are given practical demonstrations of all branches and classes of mining work. In miniature are shown the practical working of coal. lead. zinc and copper mines. The exhibits are in fairly complete con dition. and little remains to be done in or out of the building to make this department one of the most interest ing and instructive of the exposition
