acc ana q pillar Of Flame.

Milan l.. Farnham, painter living
near Ceresco, was transformed into a
living electrical pillar when the tele-
phone line which he was repairing be-
came charged by a live wire Wednes-
day afternoon.
He was standing on wooden plat
form, and sparks few from all parts
of his body like those from an emery
wheel. He was wreathed In con
tinuous fame of fire. His hands un-
willingly CRASHED the telephone wire
which he was repairing. He could not
let go. although he tried hard to free
himself from the awful torture.
His calls for help and the sparks
flying from his body attracted the fam
lily, who lived nearby. His daughter
ran to his assistance, and with the
help of neighbors tore the man away
from the wire.
Farnham's hands were terribly
burned by the Juice" He is now re-
covering. Wires carrying 10000 volts
pass near the telephone wire, which
became charged through bad insula
ton.

CRUISING for perelicts.

The excellent work in destroying q
dangerous derelict last week, begun
by the Tacoma and completed by the
Columbia, gives renewed point to the
suggestion hitherto made in these
columns that vessels of the navies of
the world might with peculiar profit
be employed in tracking and destroy
ing the abandoned hulks which dot
the seas and which present one Of the
one of the most serious dangers to
navigation. says the New York Trib-
une. OF the need that derelicts sha.i
be destroyed as speedily as possible
there can be no question. Many
known accidents and disasters have
been due to them, and there is rea-
son for supposing that many, perhaps
most, of the mysterious disappear
ances of vessels might truly be ex-
planned on the ground that they had
come into collision with those wan
dering destroyers. Carrying no lights,
making no noise. giving no signal OF
any kind, often lying so low in the
water as to be scarcely perceptible,
and heavy and solid almost against
which a vessel can scarcely be guard
ed in the dark and collision with
which is always serious and often
disastrous

North Dakota Solves the AduIteration
ProbIen

North Dakota seems to have found
the key to the question, "How shall
we protect the people from frauds In
manufactured products?" A new law
has recently gone into effect designed
to make 1t impossible TO deceive peo-
pie into buying inferior and adulter.
ated paint under the impression that
they are getting real paint. viz: pure
white lead and linseed oil.
The North Dakota lawmakers did
not attempt to absolutely prohibit the
inferior pigments, or mixtures Of
pigments. They adopted the slogan,
Let the label tell,' and then left TO
the people to buy whichever they
wished.
Under this plan. IL any enc wishes
TO buy a mixture of rock-dust. ground
quartz and other cheap elements
which are found in many paints and
so-called white leads" no one can
object; for they do it with their eyes
open. But If they prefer genuine
white lead and linseed OIL they can
be sure of getting it, for none but
the genuine article can bear label
which says pure white lead
In all other States mixtures are Of
ten sold as pure white lead which
contain little = sometimes no = real
white lead.
1t would seem that were this same
principle applied to food beverages
and all other prepared articles, where
deception is practiced upon the buy
or, the question would be solved. II
would leave us free TO buy what we
pleased, but would protect us from
unwittingly buying what we did not
want

Atmospheric Poisoning.

The protests against the automo-
bile omnibuses of London have re-
ceived a powerful reinforcement by
a declaration of Sir james Dewar on
the chemical basis. He Is undoubted-
ly among the high chemical authori-
ties of the world. and his condemna-
ton Of the motor buses and freight
vans seems conclusive unless inven-
ton provides innocuous motive power.
Sir James Dewar states that the
combustion of petrol or gasoline in
these motors throws off vast quanti-
ties of noxious gases. Some of these
are absolutely poisonous and all in
furious. He holds that the air of Lon
don is Lad enough already without
the addition of carbonic acid gas, the
sulphurous gases. and worst of all,
the asphyxiating carbonic oxide.
Moreover, while he admits that sci
ence can improve motors, he declares
that it is impossible for it to burn Pc
troll and render the resulting gases
innocuous.

All Chemically Pure.

The mistaken idea OF a few years
ago, about Alum in Baking Powders
being Injurious, no longer prevails, or
scarcely exists. II is a well estab-
lished fact by chemical analysis that
Cream of Tartar being less volatile
than Alum, when exposed To heat, Is
not entirely vaporized as Is the case
with Alum, but leaves residue in the
bread, which is Injurious. Alum, on
the contrary, Is entirely evaporated
while performing its function during
process Of baking. leaving no atom of
Injurious residuous substance. The
words Chemically Pure" enormously
used to designate Cream OF Tartar
from Alum baking powder Is q mis-
homer. Baking Powder made of pure
Alum is as chemically pure as made
from pure cream OF tartar These
words mean nothing more nor less
than pure chemicals, and in no way
can they imply that one baking pow
der is Alum and another Cream of
Tartar. Alum has been declared to be
wholesome; an established fact. Ev-
cry large water system in the cities
along the Missouri river use Alum in
large quantities to purify the water
before pumping it into their water
mains for consumption. Cream of Tar
tar baking powder is perhaps good
enough for any one; Alum baking
powder is better, and very much
cheaper

EDITOR ROSEWATeR DEAD
UEuL-NNoWN OMAHA NEWsPA
PER MAN PASSES AWAY.
Had Been Noted in Financial, Politt
cal and Business Affairs OF West
.srn Metropolis for Years.

Omaha, Neb.-Edward Rosewater.
proprietor and editor of the Omaha
Bee. and prominently identified with
the political. financial and business af-
fairs of Omaha and the state of Ne
braska for 40 years. was found dead
in district courtroom No. 6, on the
third floor of the Bee building, early
Friday. Mr.. Rosewater had evidently
sat down on bench in the courtroom,
had fallen asleep, and died of heart
failure.
Mr.. Rosewater went to Waterloo,
Neb.. Thursday afternoon, where he
made speech TO the old soldiers of
Nebraska. He reached Omaha on his
return at seven p. m. and went TO his
Office Immediately in the Bee building
He is known to have been in his Office
during the evening. but was not seen
by members o. his family after return
ing from Waterloo.
1t was a habit of Mr. Rosewater to
go to different parts of the building
whenever his pleasure so indicated.
and it IL presumed he stepped into
a minutes repose and fell asleep
DR.. Rosewater attributed the sudden
death of his brother to the results
which followed the excitement attend
ant on long campaign in which Mr..
Rosewater was prominent candidate
for the nomination by the Nebraska
state convention for United States
senator. The convention was held
Aug. %, and Mr.. Rosewater, unani-
mously supported by the delegation
from Douglas (Omaha) county, was a
prominent figure at that gathering.
There were several ballots taken,
during which Mr.. Rosewater gained
steadily against his chief opponent,
Norris Brown. Following the ballot
which nominated Brown, Mr.. Rose
water delivered an earnest speech to
the convention, thanking his friends
for their support, and pledging himself
to the support of Mr.. Brown and the
state ticket, for which no apologies
would be necessary.
Mr.. Rosewater, following the con-
vention, announced through the col
umns of his paper, the Omaha Bee,
that he was out of the senatorial race.
During the progress of the conven-
lion Mr.. Rosewater, naturally, was un-
der considerable strain, and following
the announcement of the result of the
ballot which gave Mr.. Brown a major
ity. gave evidence of some physical
weakness, but revived at once and ad-
dressed the convention. He told a
close political friend that he fell little
worse for the excitement of the cam
paign and was strong enough to go
into the battle for the election of the
state ticket.

MORE PuLoUE BEING DRUNK.
Mexico City Gets Away With 100000
Litres Every Day.

The consumption of pulque in Mex
leo city is rapidly increasing, and
the hauling of the drink is becoming
one of the principal sources of rev
enue on a number of lines entering
the city.
On nearly every railroad entering
the city special pulque train is run
into the city daily and many OF the
regular freight trains carry large
numbers of cars containing the popu-
lar drink.
During the month OF June three
railroads. the Hildago, the Mexican
and the lnteroceanic, carried into the
city 59,S61 barrels and 334 skins full
of the pulque gathered within a radius
Of sixty miles of the city. The Ma
tional. the Central and the smaller
lines brought in an amount probably
half as great
Allowing that the population of
Mexico city is 100000 men, women
and children. the quantity OF pulque
brought into the city daily is suf-
ficient to supply almost two liters to
every individual. Do you drink your
share? During the month of June a..
9S5,290 liters of pHlque were brought
into the city, as in one barrel there
are $50 liters and in one skin so liters
During each day of the month an av.
erage of 1929 liters was brought to
the city.
The amount thus reckoned is ex.
elusive of the pulque brought to the
city in wagons and on muleback from
the nearby haciendas.

GOOD AND HARD.
Results Of Excessive Coffee Drinking.

1t is remarkable what suffering
some persons put up with just to sat

A Mich. woman says: Il had been
using coffee since | was old enough to
have cup of my own at the table,
and from 1t | have suffered agony
hundreds of times in the years past.
My trouble first began in the form
of bilious collie, coming on every few
weeks and almost ending my life. At
every attack for s years / suffered in
this way. / used to pray for death to
relieve me from my suffering. had
also attacks of sick headache, and be-
gan to suffer from catarrh of the stom-
ach, and of course awful dyspepsia.
For about a year | lived on crack
ers and water Believing that coffee
was the cause of all this suffering, |
finally quit IL and began to use
Postum Food Coffee. Ii agreed with
my stomach, my troubles have left
me and / am fast gaining my health
under its use.
mo wonder I condemn coffee and
tea. No one could be in much more
critical condition than | was from
the use of coffee. Some doctors pro-
nounced II cancer, others liberation,
but none gave me any relief. But

Bullets from the new 5O-caliber
rifles of the United States army whiri
with great rapidity. The rifiing gives
one revolution of the bullet about its
axis in ten inches. AT the muzzle the
velocity of the bullet is 1900 feet
second, which means 2,760 turns a
second. assuming that the bullet Goes
not strip in the rifing. The circum-
ference of the bullet is .S42 of an
inch, which gives a peripheral velocity
of $500 inches each second, or $4,000

Governors Reception.
The reception tendered to Go,

The reception tendered to Gov +ernor Hoggatt was the most suc- cessful social event that Valdez .has witnessed in some time. Ire hall was nicely decorated and everyone in town turned out to shake hands with the new gover- nor. The reception lasted from s till 10, after which dancing started and continued for several hours. The music was. of the best and a fine lunch was served.
 The reception committee de- serves great credit for the manner in which this event was handled, especially the ladies of the com mittee, who worked so hard to make the affair success.
