D+ar Sirs • —I have made a careful
chemical ana. y lit of the Kitchen Queen
Baking Powder, purchased in the market.
It belongs to the moat healthful and effi-
cient claaa of baking powders manufactur-
ed.
Those baking powders are best which—
(1) Keep best.
(») Give off most regularly the largest
amount of leavening gas.
(3) Leave less residual matter in the
bread, and this of the most healthful
kind. +
I have carefully compared the " KIT-
CHEN yUEEN " with the leading baking
powders on the market. None surpass it
on any of these points and it is superior
to many.
I take pleasure in saying, by way of en-
couragement to Texas manufacturers and
for the benefit of the consuming public,
that the Kitchen yueen Baking Powder
is as near an ideal baking powder as has
ever come to my notice. Respectfully,

THE CRIME OF THE CEN-
TUR r.
It is tho habit of the world to
ofteo magnify the smaller occur-
rences and accidents of life while
forgetting, or looking seemiugly
with Indifference npou, the larger
affairs. This peculiarity of view
la strikingly shown in overlook-
ing great and national cases of
suffering and yet affecting horror
at individual instances of catas-
trophe.
The other day, for example, we
were told that the Americau wo
men bad been resp nding to the
appeal made in tiebalf of the poor
of Greece by the queen of Greece
each detached case of Armenian
suffering arouses the world to ex
pression of sympathy; the recent
Farts tragedy has called forth ex
pressions of profound regret from
imperial courts and often the loss
of a dozen or score of people by
some accident causes the work
to shudder. Within the past year
however, and still continuing, the
crime of the century is l>elng per
petrated within a hundred miles
of the Florida coast and neither
Europe nor America is uttering a
solitary protest!
An intelligent correspondent
writing from Cuba a few days
since gave a detailed account of
the operation and effect of Wey-
ler's order requiring the people of
the fields and hamlets of the island
to seek and remain within the
walls of the fortified towns and
oities of Cuba. Tens of thousands
of miserable, sick and starving
people in consequence of this or-
der are huddled together inside
the Spanish lines and the death
rate is frightful. Thousands are dy-
ing, necessarily, of hunger In con-
sequence of |the pitiless enforce-
ment of this brutal order. Wey-
ler is as remorselessly murdering
these people as if they were being
cut down by the sword. The
methods of the Turks in Armenia,
indeed, were merciful compared
to this slow tortue which Weyler
is inflicting upon the non-comba
tants of Cuba. And yet this hor-
rible state of affairs is permitted
without even a protest from the
United States.
The correspondent referred to
declares that nnless food and as-
asistanoe of every kind go from
the United States to these starv
lng and utterly helpless thousands
in Cuba, famine of widespread
and most appalling type will be
the result. Think of one man,
the commander of a modern army
of christian Europe, deliberately
causing a great famiue! This is
not like the exigencies and legiti-
mate horrors of warfare. Tbe
common custom of civilized ar
mies is to share their rations wilh
the non-combatants, the women
and children, of a conquered ter
ritorv. In Cuba, the i lea is, on
the other hand, to pen up the
helpless and starve them to deatt.
Will the government at Wash*
ngton continue its heartless indif-
wrence in the premises? If so.
the American people ou«;ht to
visit their vengeance upon cverj
member of the administration.
McKinley and Sherman are today
)artners in crime with Weyler in
jroducing this fearful condition
of affairs in a neighboring island
is there no way to arouse national
indignation, any more, in this re
public?—Post.
The reports from Nashville.
Tenn., which tell of an air sliij
that made a successful High
♦gainst the wind for a dozen miles-
will be received with more or le
incredulity on general principles;
for it is characteristic of the <'e
rigible balloons that their inven
tors have invariably had poor
success in steering them to fan e
and fortune. There is, of course,
a possibility that the Nashville
invention, which is the product of
Professor Barnard's genius, may
meet with a better fate. At all
events, if it can do what the
matter-of-fact accounts say of it,
it should be able to do more; and
for that reason further reports of
its voyages will be awaitei
with a lively interest.
A CalqM Ornament.
Oat of a Broadway store there stepped
lately a tall, dignified, gray haired
woman. She started down town and,
stopping to look in the shop windows,
immediately became the object of a very
lively interest on the part of the women
around her. They first stared at her cu-
riously and then smiled. The women
who approached her noticed nothing J>e-
yond the fact that she was a handsome,
well dressed woman and attending to
her own affairs. But the people back of
her were smiling, and not all of them
amid explain the cause of the peculiar
sight which excited their merriment In
the back of the woman's hair was a
comb, and nttached to this was a large
spider weh of green silk. In the center
of fife web was a red velvet spider. The
thing must have measured six inches in
diameter, hut if was lipht enough to
ang readily nn her comb. People who
aw her at a distance from the store out
f which she had come had no idea how
such a decoration could have got an her
head.
Her complete unconsciousness showed
that she was quite unaware of its pres-
nco, and as most of the smiles were be-
hind her back she also failed to see
them. Tho peoplo who saw her come
out of the store explained tho curious
ight to their satisfaction. The shop is
voted to the sale of Oriental goods,
ind many articles such as this staid
looking woman had on her head arc dis-
played for sale hung on wires stretched
bout the store. It w as from one of the*
that she got her green silk spider web
md red velvet spider. Nobody volun-
rt d to remind her of its presence or
isk if it was meant to be there. So she
continued her walk decorated with the
incongruous ornament. —Now York Sun.
The war between Greece ant
Turkey is a cruel one because it is
so hopeless of good result. The
numerical superiority of the
Turks and their better equipment
and leadership countervail all o
the defensive advantage of the
Greeks in fighting on their own
soil' and delivering battle from
positions of gieat natural strength
Besides, it must be remembered
that there are no better soldier
than the Turks properly fed
armed and led. The Greeks an
outmatched and overborne by
dead weight of men and metal
against which it seems murderou
folly fuither to contend.
LADlEi>' FI-HU CAPE-WRAP.
This fashionable wrap is shown
made of grenadine over taffeta
silk and trimmed in a fluffy way
with frills of Brussels net and
black lace insertion. The caps
portion, which is circular in
shape with a center seam, stands
out in deep flutes and fails just to
the waist. It is crossed below
the bust in fichu style, which is
heightened by large tapering
revers. The revers are covered
with cross rows of braid. Rib-
bons tacked to the lower corners
of the cape under ribbon bows are
ed and her name now recorded in
tbe great book of life. Let us
cherish her memory and imitate
her good deeds. She was an af-
fectionate wife, devoted mother
and faithfnl friend; therefore, be it
Resolved, that we extend to the
bereaved family onr sincere and
heartfelt sympathy and pray our
Heavenly Father that he guide
their future with wisdom and bind
up their wounded hearts with His
everlasting loye. Faith alone sus-
tains, knowing "He doeth all
things well."
Resolved, that a copy of these
resolutions bo presented to the
family also spread on the minutes
of both societies and a copy be
sent to the Christian Courier and
our city papers for publication.

PRISONER OF HIS FEARS.
your
<<uar«linic WVIIh From Contagion.
There is no need of further proof of
the dangers which w ells present, from
the point of view of possible contamina-
tion with disease germs, notably those
>f typhoid fever. It ir> well known how
many villages have been deciniiated
by that terrible malady simply because
the wells which afforded the water suy
ply had received not only water from
pure springs, but also drainage from
cesspools. I)r. Koch, having recognized
the positive character of this peril, ad-
vises tho arrangement in wells of sand
filtering apparatus, for which he offers
a very simple plan. At the center of
tho well he lowers an iron tube 0 or 8
centimeters (2-12 or 3 inches) in di-
uneter, of which tho lower extremity,
tightly closed by a metallic plug, is
pierced with a series of small holes
that permit the water to outer tho pipe.
In tho open spaeo between this part of
tho device and tho sides of tho well,
which should bo well walled up, fino
gravel should bo placed, rising abovo
tho highest level which tho water is li-
able to attain.
Then coarse sand should be filled in,
even to tho mouth of the well, and a
pump plunger inserted inside tho tube.
Tho water which is pumped is thou
filtered by its passage through the sand.
It is not possible perhaps to say that
all the bacteria will be arrested, because
sand filtration is not recognized as ab-
solutely efficacious, but it is at least a
great safeguard, and the installation is
very simple. It is especially important
that fine sand should not be permitted
to enter and accumulate in the body of
tho pump.—Nature.

Welded Joint*.
Some experiments made lately at the
laboratory of the University of Michi-
gan to determine the strength of welded
joints are of sufficient practical value
to be noted. Tho report shows that of a
number of specimens tested not one
broko in tho weld. As, however, some
of these wore slightly larger at the
weld, another sot of specimens was pre-
pared and a cut taken from each in the
lathe in order to reduce tho piece to a
uniform diameter throughout its length
between the jaws of the testing machine,
and common round iron was used. Un-
der this arrangement three bars of metal
were taken at random—dimensions 1^
inches long id three-fourths of an inch
in diameter—from each bar four speci-
mens being prepared—one solid, one
lap welded, one butt welded and one
split welded. The result was that ouly
two specimens, both lap welded, broke
at or near tho weld, the fracture being
in one caso slightly crystalline and tho
other fibrous, tho strength in no caso
differing much from that of the solid
parts.
Men Have Not Degenerated.
It is common to hear of the giant
people who lived in the old days, yet it
is decidedly uncommon to find proof
that the averago ancient was any larger
or more powerfully built than the aver-
ago person of tho present day. The
Egyptian mummies show these peopi
to havo been of medium size. The re-
mains taken from the catacombs do not
differ in sizo from the people of the pres-
ent, while the armor which was worn
by the warriors of the long ago fit as
readily the forms of peoplo who are not
at all gigantic, or at least extraordinarily
above the average, either in girth or
stature. Th' re were great men in tho
old days, but as great still obtain in this
nineteenth century.-^-Pittsburg Dis-
patch.
His Sorrow.
"I want a death certificate," said an
excited individual, rushing into the
health office. He got it and was asked
for the customary dollar.
"What's that?" he exclaimed, looking
surprised. "I'll give you 50 cents."
"It'll never do," said Secretary
Combs, nodding his head. "Couldn't
take a penny less."
"Well, here's the dollar," declared
the man. "I wouldn't have had her die
for five. She was a model wife."—

"Tho 'commander of the faithful' is
of middling stature, rather under than
over the average, and of weakly consti-
tution. His countenance has no wicked
expression. It is of tho Circassian type
from the mother's side, but bearing tho
marks of degeneration. The eyes are
haggard, the forehead insignificant and
narrow, the eyebrows very thick, form-
ing two great arcs, which coalesce. The
large nose dominates the whole physi-
ognomy and is slightly inclined to one
side at tho lower extreuiitv. Tho mouth
is lar^r, rno nps flnck. The sultan
wears his beard long, and care has
sprinkled his hair and beard with silver
within the last few years. It is a fami
ly tradition among the heirs of Osnian
to speak in a loud voice. Abdul Hamid's
utterance is strident and imperious. It
is tiie voice of a master addressing thos*
whom he regards as his slaves."
Ever since he has been ou the throne
Abdul Hamid has rarely gone to bed at
night to rise in the morning like an or-
dinary mortal. He seldom retires until
dawn, but rises again at 8 o'clock, hav-
ing spent the night hard at work listen-
ing to reports and attending to the
affairs of state. When ho has nothing
else to do, he reads French detective
stories, for he has an all pervading idea
that conspiracies are being hatched
against him, and passes his time cir-
cumventing an imaginary conspirator.
Nobody knows where he will spend any
part of tiie day or evening. Often ho
enters a building, and, while the sen
tries at the door believe that he is inside
he has gone by a back door and to
some other building. Moreover, in what
ever part of the palace he may be, tin
is a permanent service of surveillance
day and night, and he is constantly ae
compauiod by a score of persons, who
organize a special service in the build
ing or apartment where he happens to
be for the inonn lit.
Where the sultan will sleep is neve
known. He possesses more than 50 bed
in the different parts of the palace, and
these bedrooms are separated from tho
rest of the edifice by iron doors and fur
nished with most ingenious and eompli
eated locks. Two superb St. Bermird:
also sleep outside the door of the apart
nicnt in which the sultan may be sleep
ing, for ho knows that four foot
guardians cannot bo tampered with
Formerly the members of the imperial
liarem used to move about among tli
numerous palaces on the Bosporus, but
Abdul Hamid put a stop to it. Tin
dies of the harem never havo the bonefi
of a change of air. Their palace is their
prison, and nowhere does phthisis claim
so many victims as in the harem (

haviag within six months nearly
doubled its circulation. This
growth, while indeed gratifying,
serves only to stimulate the man-
agement to greater efforts. With
a view to the introduction of the
New York Times in homes where
it is not now received, where the
improvement that has been made
may not be known, a plan has
been devised to reward those who
may assist in the work of increas-
ing its circulation by offering to
any man, woman or child any one
of the standard high grade oop
hundred dollar bicycles, 1897
model, if they will secure one
hundred (100) new subscribers
for the New York Times, each for
three months—$3 if delivered by-
carrier; $2.50 if sent by mail.
That no effort to increase the cir
culation of the New York Times
may go unrewarded to those who
tind they can not secure more than
fifty subscribers for three month*
each, the choice will be given of
any fifty dollar (retail price) bi-
cycle, American manufacture, ami
to those who in their efforts fall
short of fifty subscriljers there
will be paid 50 cents in cash for
every eubscribor less than fifty.
Remember you can have your
choice of any bicycle of American
manufacture.
Any person desiring to under-
take the work of securing 100 sub-
scribers should notify the New-
York Times, and full instructions
and blanks will be furnished.
Under no circumstances will a
subscription be accepted as mak-
ing up the number required of
any person who has been a regu-
lar reader of the New York Timeh
since January 1, 1897. All lists
will be investigated, and if it is
found they include the name of
any person who has recently been
a regular reader, that subscrip-
tion will not be accepted to make
np the list of 100.
It is distinctly understood that
all lists of names are snbject to
verification. All copies of the
New York Times ordered under
this plan mast be delivered where
the Times has not heretofore been
received. The offer is intended
solely for new subscriptions, and
orders from present regnlar read-
ers of the New York Times will,
addressed envelope for reply
(The New York Times will sup-
ply them). Send the sigr ed and
addressed letter circulars to the
New York Times, and they will
be mailed without cost to you;
if you mail them yourself you
must affix to each letter a 2 cent
stamp. By this means you may,
without calling in person on your
friends, earn your choice of any
$100 bicycle.
Things worth having are not
easily obtained. It requires earn-
est effort and untiring persistence
to secure 100 subscribers, and you
may find for the first day or two
chat tbe effort is not so easy as
you may imagine, but persever-
ance will surely bring success.
If you desire additional infor-
mation, wiite to the Times. All
questions ' will be cheerfully an-
swered. This is a rare opportu-
nity to secure your choice of any

Now that Galveston, Texas, has
deep water the railroads of the
west are building in that direc-
tion, South Texas is the nearest
gateway to the sea for all states
west of the Mississippi by many
hundred miles and now offers
markets almost as good as New
York and better than Chicago.
The tide of immigration as well
as commerce is surely turning
wards the gulf. A genial climate,"
good markets and land capable of
producing from $100 to $500 per
acre selling for less than the an-
nual rental of North Texas lands
will surely attract the homeseeker.
Call or write for our maps and
circular.
