The Plague of Alum.
It is said that tho soventeon
year locusts aro duo next sum

been warned with roforeiico to
their young orchards. Thero is
a creator plaguo than tho locusts
with us now, which affects not
only tho farmers, but tho entire
community. This Is tho alum
baking powder. Tho makers of
those articles aro trying to push
them into ovory household, ro
gardloss of the harm thoy aro
doing to tho health of tho people,
considering only tho enormous
prolits which thoy aro making
outofthom. Selling thorn auy

hundred per cent.
Tho public aro waking up to
the soriousnrss of this post, in
somo localities' In England
recently nearly a hundred deal
ors in alum baking powders
were taken Into court, convicted
und punished, and that rid Great
Britain of tho plague. In
Canada notice has been given
that after January next, the
method in England will be
adopted. In this country many
grocers have already been ar
rested for dealing In alum pow
tiers, and tho action of the
authorities will doubtless bo
come general. It is now unsafe
to either soil or use them.

Berlin, Oct. 14. No country
does so mucu for the education
of its peoplo as Germany. The
common schools are not only in
reach of the poorest, but the tu
ition is free and attendance is
cumpulsory in childhood. Hence
ignorauco Is a crime and illitcra
tes are no moro numerous than
criminals. Having passed
through the common schools,
tho young men and women of the
country havo an opportunity to
qualify themselves by special
training lor auy one of the ninety
and nino occupations. In the
university every branch of
science is taught, and every path
of learning, as far as the anibi
tion of the btudont prompts him
to go, may bo followed. For
those who prefer or whose cir
cumstances requiro thorn to
engage in commercial, mechani
cal or ngricultu ral lines, thoro at c
schools of training for tho hands
as well as the minds for any de
partmont of human activity.
There are schools for farmers,
yurdi ors. florists, fruitgrowers,
forcubinot makers, bookkeepers,
foresters, blacksmiths, carpen
ters, machinists, tailors, shoe
makers, druinrists: thero aro
cooking bchools and institutes
for training for training servunt
girls, barbers and chiropodists.
You can ti rid a school in Germa
ny for Vouching anything you
want to know; and it is usually
supported by tho government
and froo to all comers, or per
haps only li nominal tuition Is
charged. There is no reason
whv anv person in this great
empire should bo ignorant of
tho duties pertaining to the po
sition ho is required to occupy.
A special to tho world from
Washington says: Mr. and M rs.
Hon ry Scott, of San Francisco,
are visiting la Washington.
Official and fashionable socioty
has given thuui the cold shoul
der. "Mr. Scott is tho million
aire proprietor of tho Union Iron
Works, at whopo homo President
and Mrs. McKinloy wore enter
tained during thoir visit to ban
Francisco last 6pring. It was
at this house that Mrs. McKin

keenly appreciated tho courtesy
extended, but when a bill of
$8,000 was rondored to tho local
committee of inauagoment to

Too Quick for Three Fort Worth
was !:IJ0 o'clock Saturday
ovening when John T. MoElroy.
of Pecos. Tex , started to board
tho train at the Texas & Pacific
station at Fort Worth for Dallas.
Ho had his ovorcoat on his arm
and as no started to stop on tho
train ho was crowded by several
men who "jostled" him as is
usual in thocasoof pickpockots.
Ho at onco suspected tho reason
and "searched himself" to as
certain what was missing. His
money was safe, his watch was
still nestling in his waistcoat
pocket, and then ho felt for a
1800 diamond ho wore in his
shirt bosom.
It was gone. Without a word
he dropped his overcoat and
threw his arms about the three
men near him Aj soon as he
had them "clinched" ho cried
out for an oflicer, and Depot
Mastor Fulford responded, with
him coming Ollicors Howard and
Logan. The thieves struggled
to free themselves and all throe
got away.
Desmont was caught, after a
ehuso in tho Texas & Pacific
yards by Oflicor Howard, Mr.
McElroy and George Schrouder,
a resident of Fort Worth. Ho
was brought back to the station
proper, whoro it was found that
Policeman Logan and D( pot Mas
tor Fulford had captured Jame
son, who was at once taken to
the calaboose.
