ROYAL
The Absolutely Pure
Baking; Powder
Made of Cream of Tartar, and
Free From Alum or Phosphatic Acid
Royal Baking Powder renders bread, biscuit, cake
and all flour foods finer and more healthful.
★ ★★★★★★★★★
Baking powders made from alum, phosphates and other
harsh, caustic acids are lower in price, but they are injurious
to the stomach.
“ The injurious effect of alum on the mucous coat of the stomach
is positive and beyond dispute; it is both an irritant and an astringent.
The use of alum in any article of food or article used in the preparation
of food should be prohibited.”

Berkeley Springs, Sept. 20. All the
sand mills in this section^are idle as a
result of the strike inaugurated by
the Hungarian and Italian workmen
employed in the works. The men
went out on strikejbecause ofjthe fail
ure of the eompanies^to pay them the
month’s wages at the end of that time.
It has been customary for tbe compa
nies to hold back the'wages of new
workmen for 00 days before paying the
first month, and when the money was
not forthcoming^the workmen quit in
a body. Asked to return to work and
abide by the custom, the men replied,
“No mu'n, no work, dod|gast it,’’ and
they remain firm in their determma
tion.
So far there have been 75 appeals
from the work of the tax commission
ers who reassessedJthe land In Morgan
county recently under the’new tax
law. The County court is busy hear
ihg these cases. The new’'tax laws
are unpopular in this county.
The County court has Jordered al
persons wlr have encroached on put
lic highways with fences, 'bridges,
etc., to remove the same within a
specified time, the alternative being a
law suit.

SEVEN DEAD IN FACTORY.
Fire Follows Kxplonion la Plant of
Connect lent Fnne Company.
AVON, Conn., Sept. 18.—The explo
sion of a fuse, followed by a fire in a
building of the Climax Fuse company
here, caused a panic among twenty
employees in the building and resulted
in the death of seven and injuries that
doubtless will prove fatal to several
others.
There was no way of coping with the
flames, which soon spread rapidly, and
in less than an hour after the explo
sion occurred those who were unable to
escape were in the clutches of a tire
that eventually burned their bodies to
ashes.
The exact cause of the accident
which caused the loss of seven lives
may never be known, but it is tlie ac
cepted theory here that in an effort to
burn out a stoppage In one of the
machines James Joyce caused an ex
plosion of a fuse with the hot iron he
held in It is hand. Those who were In
the room where the explosion occurred
and who came out of the place in a
condition to tell about it say that the
explosion was not a severe one and
ordinarily would not have caused a
panic. Inflammable material near by,
however, was set oh fire, and in a few
moments the room was u mass of
flames. In an instant there was a mad
rush for the doors and windows, and
during the scramble many were pushed
hack into the building while others
wire severely burned. The explosion
took place on the ground floor of t he
older building in the factory group in
the finishing room, and about twenty
persons were employed there.

JERSEY CITY, N. J„ Sept, lft—As a
gigantic protest against blasphemous
swearing 15,000 men, who have taken
1 au oath not only to refrain from taking
the name of the Lord In vain, but to
! prevent others from doing so, will
march the streets of Jersey City to
morrow.
Young men and old men will march
beneath the banner of the Holy Name
society, each one wearing a small but
ton on the lapel of his coat which de
notes that he lias consecrated his
tongue and that profane language and
lie are to be forever strangers.
The demonstration was planned by
Mgr. John A. Sheppard, vicar general
of the Roman Catholic diocese of New
ark. who started a crusade against
swearing in his diocese less than a year
ago and has in ten months organized n
Holy Name society in nearly every
Catholic church from Jersey City to
Morristown and from Bergen county
to Elizabeth and has cnlistisl in the
cause more than 20,000 men as active
members of the society.
Mgr. Sheppard desires not only that
every Roman Catholic take the pledge
to cease swearing, but hopes to sec the
movement spread to other denomina
tions.
Mgr, Sheppard is the president of the
United Holy Name societies of the
Newark diocese. There are more tliau
150 aoeieties, and each one will be
represented by from 100 to 1,000 men
in Sunday’s parade. St. Michael’s
church, Jersey City, of which Mgr
Sheppard is rector, will turn out over
1,000 men.
The object of the gathering, ns set
forth in the call issued by Rev. George
F. Bennett, secretary of the Union of
Holy Name Societies, who also has en
tire management of the details of the
demonstration, is “to spread the socie
ty to prevent cursing and swearing, to
honor and adore the holy name of God
and of .Jesus Christ our Saviour and
above nil to obtain for themselves
graces from him.”
Jersey City will be given over to the
pnraders. The out of town members
will gather In the local churches and
shortly after 2 o’clock from twenty
churchc.s will start as many parades.
They will come from Greenville, Lafa
yefte, Hudson City, Jersey City proper
and the Van Yorst section.
The various divisions will all assem
ble at Van Yorst. park, Jersey avenue
and Montgomery street, at 3 o'clock,
where they will lie formed for the big
parade by Grand Marshal William II
Foley. Marshal Foley is a sergeant of
Jersey City police and was one of the
charter members of St. Michael’s Holy
: Name society.
Some idea of the extent of the dem
onstration planned may t»o had when it
is stated that the men who will march
will equal In number fifteen regiments
upon a war footing, or three times as
many men as are eullsted in the entire
j national guard of New Jersey.
FOOT CAUGHT IN TRACK.

MARLBORO, Mass., Sept. 10.—With
| his left foot caught In a switch and
with a passenger train bearing down
on him, Frank Spelllsy, a ten-year-old
newsboy, exhibited remarkable self
possession and thereby saved his life.
The boy's foot was caught in a
j switch as he was crossing the railroad
| tracks, and he was unable to release
himself. z
Hearing the rumble of an approach
ing train, young Spellisy calmly
stretched himself on the ground at
right angles to the rails. The train
| severed his foot at the ankle.
The hoy's leg was later amputated at
the knee, but the physicians said that
he would undoubtedly recover.
