Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome.

Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome.
DIR. Herman Reinbold, the expert
German chemist, in a recent official
report concerning Baking Powders,
declares that pure alum baking pow
der is better and less injurious than
the so-called cream of tartar powders.
He says that if the quantity of alum
contained in a sufficient quantity of
baking powder for batch of bread or
cakes for an ordinary family, be con-
centrated to one mouthful of food,
and taken into the stomach of any
one person, no matter how delicate.
it could do no harm. On the contrary,
alum is wholesome in proper quanti-
ties. This is undoubtedly the reason
the State of Missouri quickly repealed
law that prohibited the manufacture
of the most wholesome of all baking
powders. So much for Alum Baking
Powders.

Immense Steel Plates.

The she'll and boilers of the new
Cunarder being built at Wallsend,
England, are said by Consul Metcalf
to be constructed of the largest steel
plates in the world. They are silicon
steel, weighing ten tons each. The
boilers alone will weigh over 1000
tons. Massive ingots and slabs
weighing IL and IA tons, are continu-
ally passing through the rolling mills

THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY.

In the opinion of one who has trav-
,-?led much and observed closely, the
most truly and rightfully contented
people in the United States to-day are
the small landowners in what is
Known as the Upper White River Coun-
try, anywhere from Newport, Ark, to
carthage. Mo. They are contented be-
Cause their surroundings are ideal and,
antil recently, the great, uneasy, dis
quieting world, with it's artificial needs
and inadequate compensations, has
been to them but little more tangible
than dream. Here, still existent,
4pd by reason of their very rarity at
this day and time more delectable
than in the past, are the conditions
which have ever appealed with IRE
isistible force to the independent-spir-
. tied Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the
supreme ruler of his own little prin-
cipality; acknowledging no master
save the law-and possibly his fem
mime helpmeet; cringing to no en-
ployer; asking no favors from the
world, save those that his neighbors
freely extend and expect as freely in
return. He lives in a latitude where
the extremes of heat or cold are never
known, and at an altitude that insures
psrfect health. The richest bounty
of Nature has been showered upon
him with unsparing hand, but it is a
question whether he more than dimly
realizes the fact. He accepts as mat
ter of course the fertile soil which
produces in abundance every guilty.

temperate zone, the surrounding for

springs and streams of translucent
purity on every hand, the wealth of
fish and game at his very door, such as
less favored mortals annually travel
hundreds of miles to find. He is con-
tented, but small credit is his for that,
for how could he well be otherwise
than content? 1t is sad that such
idealistic conditions may not con-

way through the best of this region,
notes and chink of coin will eventually
tempt the hill-dweller to part with his

the worlds history-the good things
that are ours without price invariably
pass from our hands before we come
to understand their value. The White
River country will shortly be discov-

The Times this morning quoted

fair enough to publish the corrected
statement as well as the original. II

Of wanting to deceive the public. Be
low is what the Record said in its
issue Of Tuesday:
The continued and continually re-
peated statement by the Democrats
that the personal property books are

which is contrary to law. is nothing
less than an absolute falsehood. This
falsehood is being reiterated day after

Locals Lose to Maroons in Fri
days Ball Game by Small
Margin,

The Grand Forks Browns presented
"a rather mixed lineup in. the game
at Winnipeg yesterday. with Leighty
playing third base instead of short
stop, Tucker at short instead of left
field and Fogarty and Bushelman both
playing in the field. Thoreson did the
twirling and while stingy with hits
was altogether too philanthropic in
the matter of bases on balls, which,
being followed by hits, invariably re-
suited in scores. At that, the game
was fairly good one, each team maxi
ing but two errors and the Browns
three hits as against four by the
Maroons. Another game is being
played this afternoon. An error by
Meneice in the eighth inning gave Fo-
garty life with two men out. Pitcher
>Thorson then damned out two-bag-
ger, scoring Fogarty and was himself
able to score on another miss of a
throw from Sporer by Meneice.
The score by innings was as fol-
lows:

covery; but there they are, awaiting
only little while longer to tear loose

the beginning Of the end From that
day to this, sleeping or waking his

by sudden thought and jumped from

lest 1t should flee ere morning. Many

crushing disappointment before his

it worked! Hoffman had then only to

Finds Two Classes of Atoms.

Are there two sorts of atoms? Prof.
]. ]. Thomson begs the world to be
slow about coming to the conclusion
that all matter must be electrical.
There may be one type of molecule,
says he, wherein the atoms are held
together because they are charged with
electricity and another in which the
forces were due to electrostatic in
duction. On the whole he thinks the
evidence in favor of there being two
classes of atoms. One fundamental
point to be considered If atoms are
built up of corpuscles there are in any
particular atom. There are three lines
of argument that lead to an answer
of this query. Each may be criticised,
but they lead to the same result. and
so he thinks they are entitled to credit
in the aggregate. The number of cor
puscles is about twenty-five times the
number of atoms in molecule of air,
and the number of corpuscles in an
atom Of another element is not any
great multiple of the atomic weight.
All the lines of argument lead to this
same conclusion.
