Close of a Bright Young Life.

Urania V. Brown, the eldest daugh-ter of Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Brown, ofN. Division street, died on Saturdayafternoon, of peritonitis, after an ill -ness of one short week. The funeralwas held at the residence, Mondayafternoon at four o'clock, Kev. H.Tatlock officiating, and was one ofthe largest attended funerals held inAnn Arbor in years. The class of theGrammar School and the class of St.Andrews' Sunday school, of which she

s a member, attended the funeralin a body, each contributing a beauti-ful floral tribute to their classmate'smemory.

The death of Eay is a sad bereave-ment to the father and mother, aswell as to her younger brothers andsisters. Although but fourteen yearsof age, she was mature beyond heryears, and took many of the familycares from her mother. Her dispo-sition was generous, lovable and yield-Ing and she was a special favorite withnil who knew her. She was an ardentyoung church worker and was vice-president of the junior auxiliary ofSt. Andrews' church. She was a reg-ular communicant of St. Andrews',having been confirmed by BishopDavies in the spring of 1S90. In her

l life she was brightand studious.The blow to Mr. and Mrs. Brown isa heavy one and they have the sym-pathy of the entire community.

An Enjoyable Reception.

The Hon. Daniel Dougherty, of NewYork, who delivered an address atthe opera house, last evening, for thebenefit of the new church fund of St.Thomas' parish, arrived in the cityWednesday afternoon, and remainedhere since as the guest of Fr. Kelly.On Wednesday evening, a compli-h«entany reception was tendered himat th,e Cook House parlors and an op-portunity was given our citizens tomeet thjus distinguished gentleman.The citizens were not slow in graspingthe chance, and between the hoursof eight and nine not far from 500Ann Arborites had the pleasure ofmaking the acquaintance of Mr.Dougherty, among the number* beingincluded President Angell and many ofthe University Senate, and a numberof ladies. Mr. Dougherty was fouudby all to be as polished a gentlemanand brilliant conversationalist, as heis a great orator, and never in AnnArbor has a more pleasant receptionbeen held, nor a more enjoyable even-ing spent than was that in the pres-ence of Mr. Dougherty.

During the latter part of the eveninga pleasant littl e episode occurred, thecommittee deciding to present to Mr.Dougherty a slight memorial of hisvisit here, and they took Mayor Dotyinto the plan and induced him to ex-press their thanks and present a sou-venir of Ann Arbor to Mr. Dougherty.The entire affair was impromptu. TheMayor introduced his remarks ay al-luding to the facrt; that there was alull in the conversation and that hewas tempted to utilize the opportunitywhich it afforded for the purpose of aconfession. He said: ,

"The committee of young men whohave had in charge the arrangementsfor this most enjoyable reception havebeen singularly harmonious and unani-mous in all their efforts and undertak-ings,, save one, and that has been agenerous rivalry as to who of them allby serving you the best, Mr. Dough-erty, could honor himself the most."The Mayor continued, "That rivalr yculminated late this evening when thequestion arose as to who, of that com-mittee, should enjoy the honor of ad-dressing to you, Mr. Dougherty, thethanks of the young men of the com-mittee, and of our citizens as well, forthe distinguished honor you have be-stowed upon us by your affable andHelightful in't<*course this evening.The dispute finally terminated byresort to the Mayor. It was said thathe was a sort of general utilit y man,and this additional honor he oughtto carry as easily as 'the swain couldbear the snowy fleece,' and so, Mr.Dougherty, I have the unexpectedpleasure and the great honor of pre-senting to you the thanks of the youngmen of -the committee and of thecitizens for the honor you have done

us to-night.* * *

Drawing a small parcel from hispocket, the Mayor continued as hehanded to Mr. Dougherty a handsome'Ainu Arbor' souvenir s(poon uponwhich were engraved the names ofthe committee: "I Am further deputedto present to you this littl e souvenirof Ann Arbor whi.ch the committeehope you will be pleased to accept,not for its intrinsic value, but as apledge and a reminder of their friend-ship and esteem. In the days to comefor the memory of 'Auld L'ang Syne,'

may its silver bowl touch as with amagic wand that silver tongue, which.to all true Americans in both thesweet delight and the sure defense,decics et tutamen."

During Mayor Doty's remarks Mr.Dougherty leaned against a pianoand followed with his eyes, every mo-tion of the Mayor's lips. When itcame time for a response from him,he had nof recovered from his surpriseand .said that he hardly thought itfair to be taken at so great a disad-vantage. He, however, assured theMayor and the committee that thetoken would be endeared with pleas-ant memories to him and that theoccasion was one that he had muchto thank the committee for.

Thursday, Mr. Dougherty visitedthe several departments of the Uni-versity and other points of interest inthe city, in company withMayor Doty,Prof. Knowlton and J. V. Sheehan.At the law department he treatedthe seniors to a few remarks, whichwere received with rounds of applause.

The committee having the receptionin charge was composed of the follow-:inu\- J. D. Ryau, chairman: T. D.Kearney, J. J. Quarry, J. V. Sheehan

,J. >'. Riley, Dr. J. A. Wessinger, J. E.Duffy.

A MILLIO N A YEAR.

Lottery and Prize Schemes used to sellAlum and Ammonia Baking Powders.

A New York concern, manufacturersof an ammonia baking powder, boaststhat its yearly profits are over a mil-lion dollars. While, perhaps, none ofthe makers of alum powders individ-ually can show so large earnings yettheir profits' are enormous.

A business so profitable wil l alwaysattract to itself those whose greedwil l cause them to utterly disregardthe effect their traffic may have uponthe health or life of others .

Alum baking powders1- are intro-duced largely by gilts, prizes and lot-tery schemes. A piece of glasswareor china, a child's wagon, sled, apewter spoon or some other article ofattractive appearance, but of smallintrinsic value or cost is given witheach purchase or a number is attachedto the can which entitles the customerto a similarly numbered article ot toa. prize of some kind. It is in somesuch way as this that the trade inalum and ammonia baking powders,which has now attained such giantproportions and their consumptionby the public which has reached anextent whic his truly alarming.

The highest authorities of all coun-tries condemn the use of alum in breadwithout reserve. Iu America the mostdistinguished physicians, chemists andhygienists have declared that the traf-fic in alum baking powders should be.suppressed by law. In England andFrance where the subject of pure food,and its effects upon the system, hasbeen more fully considered and madethe subject of extended experimentsby the scientists, so serious a matter;i« the use of alum iu bread and otherfood considered to be, that moststringent laws have been enacted toprevent it. These laws are rigidlyenforced, and the sale of alum bakingpowders would not be permitted foran hour. Any one who attempted tomake them for use in food, or at-tempted to use them for raising bread,biscuit or cake would suffer severepenalties.

Th eill effects upon the system offood raised by alum baking powdersare the more dangerous because oftheir insidious character. I t wouldbe less dangerous to the communitywere it fatal at once, for then suchfood would be avoided; but theirdeleterious action because impercep-tible at first is no less certain.

The puckering effet which alum haswhen taken iu the mouth is familiarto everyone. Physicians say this sameeffect is produced by it upon the deli-cate coats o fthe stomach and intes-tines.

What housewife would take hometo her family a can of alum or am-monia baking powder if she knew it.Such powders not only undermine thesystem, but i t is pointed out thatammonia taken into the system ineven infintisimal dose Cay after dayimparts to the complexion a sallowand blotched appearance.

I t is safe to discard all baking pow-ders sold with a prize or gift.

What a misnomer are the wordsAbsolutely Pure," as applied to bak-

ing powders two of the largest sellingbrands, one made from alum, the othercontaining ammonia and both of thesedrugged baking powders have stampedupon their labels and circulars thesewords absolutely pure, as a matterof fact they are "Absolutely Poor,",as shown by official examinations.

AWhich Leaves Some Money in the Fair Associa-

tion's Treasury.

GOVEjRSOIi W1ANS' SENSIBLE REMARKS.

Excellent Races Close the Fair—An Agri-

cultural Authority's Opinion of the

Fair—Some Stock Notes—Etc.

The fair on Thursday and Fridayturned out better than even the mostsanguine had hoped for. Thursdaymorning the crowd began to assembleat the grounds, on foot, horseback andin every kind of a conveyance. Theelectric cars were unable eo accomo-date nearly all who wished to takethat route, and on the Ypsi. road threecars were put on each train and thesewere crowded each trip. I t was asteady stream to the ticket office andthrough the gates from early in themorning until about three o'clock, theofficials for once having an assuranceof taking in enough to pay all pre-miums and expenses and leave a bal-ance in the treasury. The crowd con-tinued to grow until not less than10,000 persons were within the gates.

The attraction on Thursday *wasthe promised presence of Gov. E. B.Winans, who is more than popularwith the farmers of Michigan. Hewas on hand and after an introducetion, the governor gave an interestingaddress on the farmers" life and itsadvantages. His address was overan hour long, but during that timehe held an audience of 4,000 or 5,000.

Following a pleasant introductionby Mayor Doty, Gov. Winans said thathe had recently finished an extensivejourney over the state of Michigan.He dwelt for some time on the rankwhich Michigan holds among thestates of the union, and of her mag-nificent resources—agricultural andmineral—and the development whichhad been reached i in these great re-sources, and also in manufacturing; ofthe fame of the state for the advance-ment of its citizens in education andall that goes to civilize, refine and im-prove them in mental and moralworth.

He next touched upon taxation asan everpresent burden aud recom-mended the people to a better ful-fillment of their duty as citizens in thechoice of public officers. Withoutsuch care it was inevitable that thetax-payers would suffer for the pen-alty. Careless, insufficient or cor-rupt officials saddle oppressive bur-dens on the people. Any neglect tomake proper selections was sure toincrease the amount of taxes. ' Thewhole list of public officials, from localofficers up, ought to be chosen withdiscrimiuition, for their good judg-ment, honesty aud business capabil-ity. The Governor laid stress on thechoice of legislative officers and con-demned the practice of selecting suchbecause of political influence, withoutregard to the superior qualificationsof integrity, honor and well-fixed andintelligent ideas of what was due tothe people, rather than the politicians,who ought to regulate these things,for there was no lack of good ma-terial, and good and fit men shouldhave the preference. By making qual-ifications of this sort a requisite foroffice, the people would best governthemselves and make; more honorablethe choice to an official station.

Gov. Winans enlarged upon the de-sirability of having good roads. Theamount of mouey expended upou thepublic highways of the state everyyear was large, and these expenditureshad been going on for many years.We had littl e to show for it. Theroads to-day are in no better conditionthan they were thirty years ago. Thiswas a point which he asekd the farm-ers to bear in mind, and to keep at thework until every highway should bematerially bettered, and soon reachits highest condition of improvement.Thereafter the cost of keeping it incondition would be reduced to a mini-mum, and the whole community wouldreap the benefit.

Gov. Winans addressed himself tothe farmers as a class upon whomrested, in a very great degree, theresponsibility for whatever advance-ment the people might attain. Whilefarmers were men of toil from neces-sity they were nearly all so situatedas to be able to take for their owu im-provement a certain amount of leis-ure time. It was their duty to maketheir surroundings comfortable and

A BRILLIAN T SUCCESS.

agreeable. Farm life should have itspleasures multiplied. It ought to bemade attractive to the farmer's chil-dren. The home had its duties, andthe joys of home life might be materi-ally enhanced and refined by placingin the household that which Is besifitted to interest, improve and com-fort the inmates. Farmers, as aclass, had a wider and better know-ledge of matters which engaged publicattention than any other class, butwith all this they might greatly en-large their knowledge by judiciousreading. He spoke not only of thecurrent intelligence of the day, but ofpublications devoted to farm pursuits,but of the broader culture which camefrom reading good and useful books.The duty of providing such books forthe household and encouraging therefinements which came from rationalsocial intercourse was deserving theattention of, farmers to a greaterthan mos tfarmers charged themselveswith.

The discourse of Gov. Winans waswell received and frequently applaudedI t took well with the farmers andwas highly complimented.

Mr. Robert Gibbons, of the MichiganFarmer, was called out. He spokewith much earnestness and vigor uponopportunities which farmers enjoyedof, not only improving themselves;but their farms, their livestock and alltheir surroundings by the imitationof the most successful farmers and theexercise of judgment and industrycharacteristic of the good farmer ev-erywhere. Mr. Gibbons spoke favor-ably of the rank and standing of thefarmers of Washtenaw county.

At the conclusion the governor, withMayor Doty and Col. Dean as an es-cort, visited all parts of the groundsand shook hands until his arm ached.

Before the crowd left the vicinityof the speaker's stand, a littl e sur-prise was sprung on PresidentBraun and Superintendent Mills, in theshape of handsome gold headed eaneswhich Col. Dean presented to each inbehalf of the officers and employeesof the society. Two prouder menthan these never lived, as they recov-ered from their surprises.

Friday was "Citizens' Day" andnever before have so many personsattended a closing day of the fair.Nearly all of the business places in thecity closed during the afternoon, theproprietors, clerks and friends for oncegoing to the fair, the crowd in the af-ternoon numbering about 5,000Among the attractions of the after-noon was an exhibition drill by theAnn Arbor Light Infantry, under com-imaud of ("apt. C. E. Hiscock. Thecompany turned out fifty men andafter clearing the crowd off of a spacein front of the grand stand and post-ing guards to keep the crowd back,gave a very creditable exhibition ofmilitary drill , althuogh badly ham-pered for lac ko froom. Later in theafternoon the Infantry divided intotwo companies in command of Lieuts.Watts and Armstrong, and held a.dress parade with Capt. Hiscock act-ing as colonel and Ma}. Millard as ad-jutant.

Another interesting sight fot thecrowd Friday afternoon, was thesmashing of the sulky of the horse Fred"W., and the running away of thehorse down the stretch in the 2:50race. Fortunately the driver was

d ajulihe horse was caughftbefore running far.

TIIE BALLOON ASCENSIONS.

The balloon ascensions were a draw-ing card for the fair, the crowd watch-ing the big- silken bag from the timeProf. Bartholomew commenced to in-flate it until it had dropped from theclouds out of sight. Miss Gertie Car-mo, who made such a successful as-cent and drop no Wednesday, againwent up on Thursday but was not sofortunate as on the previous day. Asshe dropped with the parachute sheswung and sawyed and finally camedown in the top of a large oak treeon the old Hil l property on Hill-st.As she dropped into the tree, she letgo of the bar of the trapeze and triedto grasp a limb. She missed i t andfell to the ground, a distance oftwenty-five feet. She was taken tothe home of B. Cole, west of the city.Drs. Kapp and Breakey examined herinjuries but found no bones broken,although she was badly shaken upand bruised. On Friday, Prof. Bar-tholomew made , the ascent, landingsafely but a short distance from thefair grounds.

THE RACES.

The races at the fair this year hadmuch to do with attracting the crowd,and more steady interest was shownthan in previous years in the speedtrials. The purses hung up were fairbut not large enough to attract thefaster horses on the circuit. Thetrack was in poor condition excepton the home stretch. The races Thurs-day and Friday were as follows:

2.50 PACE AND TROTTING.

The next exciting race during thefair was the 2:50 class, Friday after-noon. There were five starters andat dusk six heats had been trotted,all close, giving two heats to each oftwo horses and one heat apiece totwo others. The judges adjournedthe deciding heat until Saturdaymorning, when the heat and race wasgiven to Gowanda, although the heatwas taken by two open lengths byJohnnie Miller, but he was ruled outof the race for foul driving.

In the Second heat Fred W. addedto the interest by running away downthe home stretch, the sulky breakingand the driver being thrown, but noinjuries sustained. The score was asfollows:Gowanda. W. E. Price, Plymouth 4 1 14 5 2 1Texas Jim. A. Harmon, Saline... 3 2 3 2 1 12Johnnie Miller , M. S. Conklin, De-

The judges were unable to awardsecond money, a protest having beenfiled against Texas Jim, it being claim-ed that he has a record under 2:45.

The fair was the most successfulone in the history of the society. Thereceipts from the gates and grandstand were $2,576.38 and from thebooths, $219.42, a total of $2,795.80After paying all expenses a surplus

Of from $300 to $500 wil l be left. Andthe society wil l start out next yearwith money in the treasury., As one prominent exhibitor saidto the Argus, in many respects theexhibits were ahead of the state fairthis year. And the attendance onThursday he said, was as large as theattendance at the state fair on anyday excepting one. There is reallyno reason why the Washtenaw fairshould not be as good as the statefair for the county is the best agricul-tural county in the state.

Naturally in our article of last weeksome of the exhibits were overlookedor slighted, but they were there justthe same and admired by thousandsof people.

Charles D. Koch received the firstpremium in the Percheron class onhis fine stallion Telamaque and fiveof his get. A very accurate cut of thisfine stallion is given below.

TELAMAQUE.

H. M. Russell, of Saline, had a coupleof very fine; black carriage colts, onetwo-year-old and one suckling colt.Fine large animals they are, of goodform and of course took first premium.

In horses of all work, some very ex-cellent animals were shown, U. R.Lee, of Dexter, took first on TomPalmer and Philip Blum, jr., second ona fine three-year-old mare. Therewere twenty-two entries in this classand competition was brisk.

A. P. Ferguson had two large tentsfilled with carts and carriages. Hewas generous in his praise of the fair."Why," he said, "just look at thesesales," and he pointed to buggies andcarts bearing the legend, "sold to."The buggies were sold to U. Warner,Aid. A. H. Fillmore, E. Treadwcll,W. G. Kempf, Geo. Gilbert, E. Parker,and carts to W. G. Kempf, L\ M.Stevens and W. W. Watts.

M. Staebler, as usual, made a finedisplay of agricultural implements ofwhich he has a very large and veryfine assortment.

A. S. Hayden, of Milan, was onhand with the Aermotor, of whichhe has sold a large number through-out the county.

W. R. White, of Bloomington, 111.,had a very useful farm gate on ex-hibition, readily opened from a car-riage or on horseback and shut with-out dismounting. The gate is evi-dently proof against animals and wasgreatly admired.

C. C. Warner, of Lodi, exhibited! punipkwa which were ;i decided curi-osity, i'iii' y hare very littl e wasteroom for seeds. A hah ol a pumpkinw huh round its way to our oifieeshows mis. It is nine inches iu diam-eter, but the space taken by needs isonly two by three inches.

'I in Michigan Tanner, whose editorspeni Thursday on the grounds, Bayetin- lair proved an unqualified success.

'J'lie new grounds of the society arebeing Improved, and as they are nicelylocated, and are ample in dimensions,they will soon be among tin- very bestin tiie state This wil l surely be thecase if the same energy shown by themanagement in the past two years iscontinued. The grounds an- reachedby an electric railway, extending fromtiie depots, and a branch of which con-nects Ann irbor and Ypsilanti. AnnArbor, as one of the main stations onthe Michigan Central, has as fine rail-way facilities as could be desired, es-pecially as tiie Ann Arboe & Toledorailway lias one of its main stationshere. Anil then "Ann Arbor itself, withits great University, its clean streets,handsome residences and public build-ings, anil line business houses, is wortha visit on.T a year from every citizen ofl he state, who must feel a just pride inits history and standing in the educa-tional world.

With these advantages, aud sur-rounded as it is by one of the mostprosperous agricultural communitiesin the state, it would be singularindeed if a properly conducted fail-located near it should not be a suc-cess.

As Mr. Gibbons is an experiencedagricultural writer, we subjoin a fewof his comments on the stock andcattle shown: "H. P. Finlcy, of AnnArbor, had his handsome son of Mam-brino Patchen Ds, Golden Era 8182,with a number of his yearlings, andthe show he made was proof that thisstallion gets as useful a lot of coltsas one could wish for—strong boned,clean limbed, and put up for business.They are all growthy, too, and wil lmake excellent hoad horses with agood load behind them."

"One beautiful blach yearling filly ,by Coralloid, 2:19 1-4, owned by Mr.George Wood, of Saline, is an honorto her sire. She is standard bred,running to Black Haw k5, if we re-member correctly, on her dam's side.She ought to be fast, and also a greatbrood mare when matured."

"E. Helber, of Saline, had his grandimported Cleveland Bay, Lord Wen-lock, with a bunch of his colts. As hemade nine entries and received eightblue ribbons and one red one, we neednot say anything more regarding hispart of the show. One of the get ofLord Wenlock, a fill y out of a mare byWaverly, and bred by J. Evarts Smith,of Ypsilanti, is an especially cleanbuilt, handsome animal. Her headand neck are as shapely and clean cutas a thoroughbred's."

"Mr . Nowlin is a veteran breed-f er, has a herd of useful cattle, goodsi/.e, shapely, and showing dairy quali-i:,-s. His bull was bred by H. T.1'aelps, is a Young Mary of the Curtisstrain, and is sired by Barriugton Dukeof Webster."

''Mr. Galpin has been improving hisherd the past two years, and thebreeder who can step into the ring anddown those four big roan cows of hismust have grand good ones. He hasthem in nice shape, and is breedingthen to a young bull by Boyden'sVoting Hilpa, and from a Cruickshankcow, a straight, square built youngfellow. If the calevs are not goodones, then like does not produce like.This herd has its foundation in theBoyden herd, and is made up of thesort which has made Springbrookfamous.""B. D.

New York, October 5.—Fashionablecircles in this city are much exercisedas to the identity of four pretty Amer-ican girls who have arrived in Londonto dance a minuet before the Queen.

Their chaperon refuses to give theirnames, but says they are all wellknown in the best New York society.A picture however is printed in theOctober number of the New York andParis Young Ladies' Fashion Bazar,entitled "Pretty girls learning todance the minuet," which gives someclue to their identity.

Society here also is interested inthe fact that each of the four Amerihcans is to weai' a dress similar to theone illustrated and marked No. 8 inthe colored plates of the magazine,which has partly revealed their per-sonality and set fashionable circlesagog.

The young ladies have been prac-ticing the minuet for eight monthsbefore venturing to ask the privilegewhich has been granted, of dancingbefore Her Majesty.

The New York and Paris YoungLadies' Bazar is for sale by all news-dealers. I t will also be sent, postageprepaid, for 25 cents per single copy.The subscription price is $3.00 peryear. GEORGE MCNRO,

OFFICIAL PAPER OFTHE CITY.

Entered ut the Post-Oifiee, in Ann Arbor, Mich,as Becond-class matter.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1991.

The Courier's usual style of politicalargument is exceedingly refined.When hit hard it meets assertions withsuch expressions as this: "The Argusstates an untruth," or "the Arguslies," or some similar phrase. We begleave to remind our highly esteemedcontemporary that the reputation ofthis paper has always been at least thepeer of the Courier"s,and such gentle in-sinuations will not tend to lower it.

The results of a judicious choice be-tween evils are well shown by the re-port of the surgeon general of the army.He says that under the canteen systemof dispensing liquors the sick rate ofthe army has decreased, and the casesof alcoholism reduced from a yearlyaverage of 56.68 per 1,000 soldiers and41.43 in 1869, to 4.37 during the lastyear, besides, of course, a great reduc-tion in cases of discipline and the de-moralization of the troops. "Tis well— half a loaf is better than no bread.If the army cannot have total, let ithave partial abstinence—Detroit Jour-nal.

And yet the Detroit Journal, whichpublished the above editorially, wentinto hysterics over the fact that thecanteen systeem was introduced at thestate encampment.

lanti to go to Ann Arbor any more.They can come to the junction of themotor line, and get there any hourfrom 6 a. m. to 10 p. m.

The buggies and other conveyancesaround the stables here proved that agreat many people drove in from a dis-tance, put up their teams here, andtook the motor to the Ann Arbor fair.They could not have driven all the wayto Ann Arbor and home again thesame day, and had time left to see thesights, but by driving here in themorning and taking the "rapid transit1'motor they got there early, had a goodlong visit, and came down after theballoon ascension with plenty of timeto get home in good season. The mo-tor line develops new conveniencesevery day.—Ypsilanti Sentinel.

home. He teas engaged in the fur-niture- business, first as an employeeof Jobn Keck and afterwards in part-nership with George J. Gruner inmanufacturing furniture. He waspresident of the Ann Arbor Turnersociety, and an active member of theAnn Arbor Arbeiter Verein, of Ger-mania Lodge, D. O. H. He was alsoan honorary member of Arbor TentK. O'. T. 51. All of these organiza-tions turned out to the funeral, whichv,-as held at the residence Tuesdayafternoon. In 18S4, Mr. Kuebler wasmarrh'd > M> ~:' i Eettich,who with two children survive him.

The success of the fair last week,demonstrates what good managementcan do. With such excellent results,the management should be encouragedto persevere in the methods whichbrought it about. Aside from the reg-ular attractions of fairs which shouldbe kept up to a high standard, novel-ties should be introduced, which woulddraw the people who complain of asameness about fairs. This year theballoon ascensions proved a great at-traction. Next year something equallygood should be brought here. If pos-sible, something which people havenever seen. A fair should have a num-ber of strings to pull people in. Somelike horse races, and as good onesshould be provided as this year. Otherslike to examine stock, and these canbe well accommodated. Others stillare seekers after novelties. I t is to behoped that our home manufacturersmay see tit next year to eclipse all pastdisplays. Excellent displays of theirproductions will prove profitable ad-vertising.

An Advent Students Boarding Place.The Adventist students in the Uni-

versity are rapidly gaining in numbers.This year they have a boarding houseof their own. It is iknown as ntlieBattle Creek Sanitarium Home and islocated on the corner of Jefferson andThompson streets, and is managed byMr. Hubbard, a medical student. I thas already twenty-five boarders. Themenu is that given at the Battle CreekSanitarium and most of the food isprepared in Battle Creek. Board is $3a week, but no meats, tea, coffee or pies allowed. The bread is the celebrated

Swabuck, baked several heurs, andooks as if toasted clear through. Ournformant sampled the food and speaksn high terms of praise of it. The

students who patronize the house holdservices in the house every Saturday,which is the Sabbath of the Adventists.The establishment of the home willhave a tendency to increase the num-bers of the advent students.

The friends of the proposition to voteupon sewerage brought the matter upin the council last Monday evening,with the expectation of carrying it, astwo of the aldermen opposed to it wereabsent. They ran against a snag, how-ever, in the provision of the charterrequiring a majority of the aldermenelect, and, as they couldn't muster sucha majority,the fact that they had a ma-jority of those present at the meetingwas- of no avail to them. The provis-ion of the charter was designed to pre-vent any advantage being taken of anychance absentee to pass a measure towhich a majority of the aldermenelect were opposed. In all probability,the council will vote at their nextmeeting to submit the question at thenext spring election, when every onewill have an opportnnity to vote. Thealdermen who wanted to vote for theproposition this month will have totake back their arguments made lastMonday night, if they vote in favor ofsubmitting it at the time of the springelection.

Eight Lessons in Cookery.

There are many cooks in the cityand some of them good ones. But it israrely that you find one who can cookall things well. Cooking schools arevery popular in the cities and reatgood seems to have resulted from them.Mrs. Ewing, the lady who gives acourse of lectures here under the aus-pices of the Ladies' Aid Society of St.Andrew's church, in Harris hall, hasjust completed a repetition of her pop-ular course, in Cleveland.

The programme for the course is asfollows:

Our Kitchen Interest—Monday, N6"v.2nd; a free lecture to which everybodyis cordially invited, at 3;30 p. m.

Bread—Tuesday, Nov. 3.Broiling—Wednesday, Nov. 4.Roasting—Thursday, Nov. 5.Soups—Friday, Nov. 6.Salads—Saturday, Nov. 7.Frying—Monday, Nov. 9.Odds and ends—Tuesday, Nov. 10.Delicate desserts—Wednesday, Nov.

Uth.The eight lessons will be given for $3.

Science in Bread Making.At the recent annual meeting of the

American Chemical Society, held inWashington D. C, the question of thevalue of carbonate of ammonia as aleavening agent in bread, or as usedin baking powders came up for dis-cussion, in which Dr. Parker, of theUniversity of Pennsylvania, and Pres-ident of the Society; Dr. Kichardson,late of the United States Departmentof Agriculture in Washington; Dr.Wm. McMurtrie, late Prof, of Chem-istry in the University of Illinois; Dr.E. H. Bartley, late Chemist of theBrooklyn, N. Y., Board of Health,and Prof, of Chemistry of the LongIsland College, and others, took part.

The consensus of opinion was over-whelming in favor of the employmentof ammonia. It was stated as a factthat ammonia rendered the glutenof the flour more soluble than theoriginal gluten, and that the bread inwhich this action was produced bycarbonate of ammonia must be moredigestible and hence more healthful,and because of the extreme volatilityof carbonate of ammonia, and its com-plete expulsion from the bread in theprocess of baking, It is one of the mostuseful, most healthful and most val-uable leavening agents known.

These conclusions are borne out bythe very elaborate and exhaustiveexperiments. made by Prof. J. ,W.Mallet, of the University of Virginia,which show conclusively that breadmade with a baking powder in whichone per cent, of carbonate of ammoniais used, in connection with cream oftartar and soda, is not only of uni-formly better color and texture, but aproduct more wholesome, because theammonia serves to neutralize anyorganic or lactic acids present in theflour.

How to Make Fairs Successful.One of the prominent fair managers

gives his opinion of the manner inwhich our fairs should be conducted,as follows: "Washtenaw county hashad one successful fair and there is noreason why we should not have more.My idea is that the races, balloon as-censions, military drill and other in-novations had much to do with thesuccess attained. The time has passedwhen large pumpkins, big cattle anda fine show of live stock will attractthe crowd. We want these but wewant other attractions also. Myopinion is that good races will domore to draw a crowd than anyother one thing. If a good roundsum is spent in fixing the track sothat it will be inferior to none in thestate and enough is raised to insurelarge enough purses to attraet someof the best horses on this circuit, Iwould be willing to guarantee a niceprofit for the next fair, and for justas many fairs as are conducted on this

. Good racing s inconnection with good agricultural,stock and machinery exhibits is whatis needed to make fairs a success now-adays."

Increase in Insanity.Insanity has been rapidly increasing

in this county during the past fewyears. The first year that ProbateRegister Doty was in office the totalnumber committed to the asylum wasnine. Each year has increased thisnumber, in 1890 it being 25, until thereport for the year ending September30th. shows that 32 persons were de-cided insane in the probate court forthis county and were sent to the asy-lum. Of this number seven were sentas private patients, one as a statecharge and one as a charge of Jacksoncount}'. The remaining 23 are chargesof this county. Thirteen of those com-mitted were women and nin rbeenmen. Of those committed fourteenwere from Ann Arbor city and town,four from Sylvan, three from Scio", twofrom York, two from Bridgewater,and one each from Pittsfield, Webster,Sharon, Augusta, Ypsilanti, Jacksonand Pennsylvania.

Sneak Thieves Make a Haul.Saturday morning, while Tony

Schiappacassee was cleaning the gut-ter in front of his store on North Mainstreet, sneak thieves tapped his til lof between $00 and $100. A strangerengaged him in conversation, whilea confederate slipped into the storeand took the money from the cashdrawer. He then slipped through thestore and out of the back door ancran. The back door had an iron baracross, which the thief dropped in hishurry, the noise attracting Schiappacassees attention, and he went tosee what was the matter.

Immediately on discovering his lossbVniappacassee reported it to theofficials. Sheriff Dwyer and DeputyPeterson learned that five men hadgone west on a freight train and tel-ephoned to Chelsea to watch out forthem, immediately starting for thatplace. The men got off the train atChelsea and seeing that they werewatched, started down the track ona run, the officers in pursuit. Themen jumped on a dray and drove thehorses on a run to the big swampnear the village. There they jumpedout and sattered. The swamp cov-ers about 200 acres and it was im-possible for the officeps to guard allsides of it. They finally capturedone, who gave the name of Maynard,the other four making their escapeunder cover of darnkess. Maynardwas well dressed and said that hecame from Toledo. On being searched$20 in dimes and small change, thesame as stolen frmo Schiappacassee'swas found on him, which he claimedhe saved up while in Toledo.

The Medical Profession.The attitude of the medical profes-

sion toward what is known as "patentmedicines" is not at all unreasonable.Thousands of these nostrums are of-fered to the public every year. Someof them are dangerous and most1 ofare futile. Swift's Specifiers. S .S.),we are all glad to say, is not classifiedamong these nostrums. I t has over-come the wholesale prejudices ofphysicians in all parts of the country,and some of the strongest testimonialsin its behalf come from medical menwho have used it in their practice,and who do not hesitate to indorse itswonderful results. This is extremelygratifying, but by no means aston-ishing, for every claim that is put for-ward in behalf of S. S. S. is based ona series of actual experiments .ex-tended over a long period of time.

A Stove That Cost S16,000."Sometwenty-fiveorthirty years ago,'

remarked G. S. Hnbbard, Jr., "Mr. Har-rison owned eighty acres of land whichis now on the Line of the Burlington rail-way, between Chicago and Riverside. Isaw that the property was bound to in-crease in value, and so I made np mymind to offer Mr. Harrison $300 an acrefor it. I found him in his office, seatedon a rickety old sofa beside a dilapidateddesk and wanning himself before the firerj*ntained in a disreputable looking,rtisty, begrimed old stove. Wexl, I mademy offer and he promptly rejected it.He said he wanted $250. 1 saw that hemeant what he said, au<i the conversa-tion soon drifted to other topics. Pres-ently I remarked tie ancient and hardlycreditable appearance of the stove.

" 'Yes, Carter,' said he, 'it is prettytough, bnt it holds the coal, and that'sall that's necessary.'

" 'You ought to be ashamed of your-self,' I returned. Til tell you what 111do. I'll just go out and buy you a stoveas a present.'

" 'You will?' he eagerly asked. 'Hon-est.' 'Well, then, if you'll do that, I'lltell you what I'll do. Il l let you havethose eighty acres at $200.'

"So I went out and bought a stove andhad it put up in Carter's office. Thewhole thing cost me $14.25. As soon asthe fire was burning brightly in it I de-manded the deed to the land, paid thenoney and walked out of the office theabsolute owner of those eighty acres.

Within a twelvemonth I was offeredr&)0 an acre for the land and refused it.The next time I saw Carter after thisoffer had been made I told him about it.

" 'You don't say!' he exclaimed. 'Comedown to my office.'

We went. Carter took down his booksand in my presence made the entry:

" 'To one office stove—$16,000.'"And he carried it right through his

)ooks too. Afterward I sold the land,000."—Chicago Post.

A Girl's Dressing Table.A girl's dressing table is the pride of

ler room. She may have pretty pict-ures, a collection of photdgraphs of her>est fellows far exceeding in number.hat of her envious girl friends; she mayhave a gum board of real rosewood, fivedozen sachet bags and a nightgown caseof real Japanese silk; yet with all theseglories to outshine it, the dressing tableis the pride and the piece de resistance,so to speak, of the room. The sweetestdressing table is all of glass and is pro-vided with two shelves, an upper shelfand a lower shelf. These are of beveledglass and are held in place by beautifulgold legs. Another kind of a dressingtable, less expensive, has simply a beyel-ed glass cover on top, and is just a plaintable elsewhere.

On top of the table go the silver mani-curing implements, the celluloid brushand comb and the ivory backed glassesand brushes. Besides this there mustbe the dozens of littl e fancy boxes, pow-der and puffs and bottle of cologne andperfumery. To make these bottles moreornamental manufacturers have suppliedcut glass pitchers and odd shaped thingsfilled with perfumery of all colors. Onecan thus, if she be a dainty miss, andparticular as to the appointments of herroom, have her perfumery to match thegeneral color of the boudoir.—Nerw YorkWorld.

THE FIGHT FOR PURE FOOD.

Success of ihe Efcorts to Scotch Bad Bak-ing Powders.

Tin- aggressive war waged by theil Baking Powder Company upon

the hosts of adulterated and impurebaking powders sold throughout thecountry is having a desirable effect,

slandalous attacks upon theRoyal company by the manufacturersof the impure goods (which are madedoubtless from a spirit of revengeand in hope of breaking the effect ofthe damaging exposures) show thatthey are hit, while the official re-ports which have come from variouspublic authorities fully corroboratingthe statements made by the Royalcompany have awakened a wholesomepublic sentiment in favor of repressivelaws, which means mischief to theillegitimate traffic.

The Royal Caking Powder Companyset out some time ago to expose thecharacter and to break up the sale ofadulterated baking powders. Havingfound from an examination of manyspecimens that there was a large num-ber of actually injurious powders in themarket, they brought the matter be-fore the public and denouned themakers by name in the press and tothe health authorities. The affairwas taken up by physicians, Boardsof Health, and Legislatures throughout the country, chemists were em-ployed to test the various powdersin the market, and the governmentitself directed analysis to be madebefore it would purchase the suppliesneeded for army, navy, and Indianuses.

The result justified the chargesmade by the Royal company. Notonly were the majority of bakingpowders in the market found to belargely adulterated, but many of themwere ascertained to contain alum andother poisonous ingredients to suchan extent as to render them positivelyunsafe for use in human food.

In making the charges the RoyalCaking Powder company did nothesitate to enter into competitionwith every other baking powder in thecountry, and it is a public satisfaction that in the official tests by thegovernment and state chemists andby Boards of Health, the Royal Bak-ing Powder has been declared to bethe superior of all others in strength,purity and wholesomeness, and abso-lutely free from all inferior or detri-mental substances.

From recent official reports i t isevident that the alum and otherwiseimpure goods have again come uponthe market in dangerous quantitiesand their old enemy, the Royal isagain upon the warpath. In contin-uing its warfare against these goodsthe Royal is meeting with the old-time opposition and abuse. The pub-lic, however, will appreciate, as here-tofore, both the object of the abuseaud the action of the Royal company,and award full justice to the companythat so fearlessly stands up to its pro-tection from such adventurers.

New Directors Elected.The annual meeting of the stock-

holders of the Ann Arbor & XpsilantiStreet Railway Co. was held at Yp-silanti, Monday, the following direc-tors being elected: H. P. Glover, D.L. Quirk, W. H. Deubel and J.
