The board of managers of the national
home for disabled volunteer soldiers has
concluded its quarterly meeting in
Washington. At the last meeting pro
vision was made for the creation of med
ical boards at each branch to examine
the inmates and ascertain what propor
tion of them were able to maintain
•
themselves and not disabled. These re
ports are now under consideration. The
board at the California branch reports
there is not a single inmate who could
properly be excluded. In the Central
branch the board found thirty-five in
mates should be excluded because they
have a sufficient income to maintain
themselves, and seventeen because they
were physically able. The Milwaukee
branch has not reported. The board
haa not yet determined upon the line of
policy to be pursued in these cases. It
is tbe desire to rid the homes of the in
mates really able to take care of them
selves in order to afford room for deserv
ing veterans, but so many considerations
arias that it is not practicable to apply
a general rule.

pletely destroy the Turkish fleet, and
that the whole could be accomplished in
twenty-four hours. Complete plans for
everything are said to be ready and only
the command from St. Petersburg is
needed.
Terrible floods have devastated por
tions of Spain the past week and re
sulted in appalling loss of life. Five
hundred houses are in ruins at Consu
egra and the occupants buried under
the debris. Two hundred bodies have
already been recovered. Many persons
are dying of hunger. The moment the
queen received the news she sent the
superintendent of the palace to Con
suegra to distribute money, clothes anti
provisions among the suffers and she
herself gave $10,000 to start the relief
fund. The cabinet met and decided to
take measures for the relief of the des
titute. New s comes in slowly from the
flooded district. Each succeeding dis
patch adds to the public sadness. Fresh
floods are reported in Almeria and Rad
ajose, 400 houses lieing destroyed in
Almeria and many families are home
less.

IS A LI .VI POISONOUS'.*
I Hall'» Journal of Health. |
"This question 1ms caused a good deal
of discussion. Alum is used by many
bakers to whiten their bread, enabling
them to use an inferior flour. It is most
extensively employed as a cheap suhsti
tute for cream of tartar in the manufac
ture of baking powders. It has not
been considered immediately dangerous,
although if continued it induces dys
pepsia and obstinate constipation. But
the fact that many cases of poisoning
have occurred from the use of alum puts
the question in a more serious aspect,
and prudent people will exercise caution
in the selection of baking powders."
"Under what conditions, then does
this substance—formerly used only for
mechanical or medicinal purposes—be
come jioisonous? They are certainly ob
scure and at present we can only sur
mise what they may be. \Ye suspect
that the cause exists in the individual
poisoned; some peculiarity of the con
stitution producing a morbid change in
the secretions of the stomach, with
which the alum combines and forms an
active poison; or the secretions may be
healthy but in unusual proportions and
that these less or greater proportions in
combination w ith the alum constitute a
poison."
"For example, two parts of mercury
and two parts of chlorine form calomel,
which is not poisonous, but change the
proportions to one part mercury and two
i P alds chlorine and we get corrosive
; sublimate, which is a deadly poison."
"Then again we know nothing of the
] constitutional peculiarities. Why is it
that one person can eat all kinds of green
fruits and vegetables with impunity,
while the same course might cost an
nt.V)« r individual mu me: tin« latison
can handle poison ivy and sumac with
out being in the least affected; another
is poisoned if lie approaches to within
ten feet of them. Out of a family resid
ing in a malarial district some of the
members will suffer half the year witli
fever and ague, while the others will en
joy excellent health during the entire
year. Foods that are wholesome to
some persons are actually poisonous to
others. This is especially true of some
kinds of fish. There is no safety in tak
ing alum into the stomach, as it is
shown to be always injurious and often
dangerous." * *
The Scientific American published in
a recent number a list of alum and am
monia baking powders, which is of great
value at this time. Following is the list
compiled from official reports. Powders

eral sale, as they are mentioned in at
least two of the official reports:
