COTTON THIEVES KILLED.
Two Men Rnbbed in The Act are Killed,
While Third Escapes.

Pocahontas, Ark, Nov. H.
In Cherokee Bay, about Il
miles north of here, last night
two Clay county hen, who were
accused Of stealing cotton, were
killed by a posse from Biggers.
Early yesterday evening John
Shipley, his son.in- law, Lee
Jones, and man by the name
of Dennis, from near Success,
Clay county, came to Biggers
and aroused the suspicious. Of
some of the people there, and as
some parties had been stealing
cotton out of the cotton houses in
the fields, posse consisting of
Deputy Sheriffs Jones and Wis
ner, City Marshal Jesse Johnson,
Will Heater and Will Cox was
delegated to watch the cotton
houses last night.
The posse encountered the
three men mentioned loading
cotton into a wagon, and when
called upon by Deputy Sheriff
Wisner to surrender, they opened
lire on him with shotguns.
From the first volley one shot
knocked out one of Wisner's
teeth and one passed through his
ear. Then followed a fusillade
from both sides until the ammu-
milton of the posse was exhausted,
when they ran across the field to
Reyno, mile away, to get more
cartridges and renew the attack.
While they were there a wagon
drove up and man alighted and
inquired for a physician to dress
a wound. He was taken into
custody and proved to be Dennis,
and was mortally wounded, and
in the wagon John Shipley was
found dead, while Lee jones had
made his escape, taking with him
all the firearms of the thieves.
Dennis was shot through the
breast and died two hours later
without making a statement.
An inquest was held today,
but nothing new was developed.
John Shipley owned good farm
near Success.

Worth Remembrance.

There are three entirely different
kinds Of ingredients used in making
the three different varieties of baking
powders on the market, viz:-(D Min.
eral-Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or
Phosphate, and 60 Cream of Tartar
made from grapes. It is important,
from the standpoint of health. to
know something about these ingredi-
ents, and which kind is used in your
baking powder.
CD Mineral-Acid, or alum, is made
from kind of clay. This is mixed
with diluted oil of vitriol and from
this solution a product is obtained
which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs
about two cents a pound, and baking
powder made with this Mineral-Acid
sells from 10 to Csc pound.
(2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is the
basis of phosphate baking powders
and the process is fully described in
the patents issued to a large manu-
facturer of phosphate powder. The
U. S. patent Office report gives a full
and exact description, but the follow.
ing extract is enough:
Burned bones, after being ground,
are put into freshly diluted oil of
vitriol and with continual stirring and
in the following proportion" etc.
From this Bone-Acid phosphate bak-
ing powders are made; such powders
sell from 20 to 80 cents pound.
60 Cream of Tartar exists in all
ripe grapes, and flows with the juice
from the press in the manufacture OF
wine. After the wine is drawn off the
tartar s scraped from the cask, boiled
with water, and crystals of cream OF
tartar, white and very pure, separate
and are collected. 1t differs in nc
respect from the form in which II
originally existed in the grape. Cream
of tartar, then, while the most ex
pensive, is the only ingredient thai
should be used in a baking powder tc
act upon the soda, as it's wholesome
ness is beyond question. Cream o.
Tartar baking powders sell at abou
40 to so cents a pound.
Such are the facts, and every one
careful of the health of the family
should remember this rule:-Bakins
powders selling from 10 to Is cents {
pound are made of Mineral-Acids
those selling from 20 to 80 cents O.
Bone-Acid; and those from 40 to 81
cents of Cream of Tartar made from
grapes.

"Is the freight rate a tax on the
consumer"
The assertion that it is has been
answered by careful investigation
in Crookston, Fargo, Grand Forks,
Bismarck, Mandan, Miles City, Helena
| Spokane, Seattle and numerous other
cities of the northwest and west which
shows conclusively that no reduction
In freight rates, unless it should
amount to so great figure as to prec-
tically cut present rates in two, would
in any perceptable measure affect the
prices paid by the average man for
the articles he eats, wears and con-
sumes in the ordinary routine of life.
Shoes for instance cost at Grand
Forks and Fargo, make for make and
quality for quality, the same as in
Seattle and Boston. Stetson hats may
be purchased in st. Paul, Fargo,
Spokane and Portland for exactly the
same price. Clothing of the same
quality costs the same in Bismarck as
in Seattle and in st. Paul as in Miles
City. Neckwear and a thousand other
articles of furnishings and wearing
apparel cost the same generally. In
one or two instances was it found that
the freight rate affects the cost of
given articles of food, except luxuries
CT high price and articles hauled of
necessity half way across the cont
nent
THE natural deduction isl said TIE
official who made the investigation,
that the consumer cannot benefit by
reduction in present rates. In dis
tricts of the northwest where mer-
chandise rates were cut three years
ago from s to Is per cent. I cannot
find that the consumer has received
the least benefit.
"The merchant has perhaps enjoyed
a larger profit. The man who pays is,
however, paying the same price as be-
fore.
Government made rates ,are apt to
be higher than those at present in
force, but even should they be lower,
the average man will not benefit.
"What the northwest is vitality in
terested in Is not q slash in rates up
on what it consumes, and a distance
tariff would forever prevent that, but
low rates on what it has to sell, in
order that it may reach the world
markets. And that distance tariff
would as effectively make such rates
impossible, because it would give the
points nearest a market the advantage
of the lowest rates.

Sundays Game-Bismarck and Rem
vile played ball at the local park yes
terday and It was q great game. The
visitors went into the practice field
first and the way they worked threw
spasm into the locals to the ex-
tent that they were badly ratified In
the early stages OF the game and the
final result was seven to nothing I'M
favor of the visitors. The boys re-
covered themselves somewhat to-
wards the last and better game is
expected today. There were a num-
Der of very pretty plays on both sides
and while the visitors made but one
error the locals allowed four to be
credited to them. The local boys
would come together in a bunch after
a high drive, which could be avoided,
and bring down the record of errors
and result in smaller score for the
visitors. The game yesterday was
we'll worth seeing and gives promise
two more fine ones today and tomor-
row.
