The secretary of agriculture has re
ceived a report from Hr. Wiley, chemist
of the department, from Medicin« Lodge,
Kansas, announcing a very successful
run with the machinery for sorghum
sugar making under the new alcohol
process developed in the chemical di
vision last winter. He reports that 156
pounds of first sugar per ton from
sorghum cane, and estimated that the
molasses will give about enough more to
make it even 200 pounds per ton.
The Ulster County Savings bank at
Kingston, New York, closed its doors
Saturday. The failure was caused by
the stealing of $463,000 of the banks'
funds by Treasurer Ostrander and As
sistant Treasurer Mathew T. Trump
bour. The system adopted by Ostran
der and Trumpbour was most ingenious,
and for twenty years baffled the skill of
expert examiners in the employ of the
state. In carrying it out deceit and
forgery were frequently and effectively
employed.
The president has prescribed a set of
rules, which have been promulgated by
the secretary of war, providing for a sys
tem of examination to determine the fit
ness for promotion of all officers of the
army below the grade of major. When
congress passed the act of October 1,
1890, providing for such examinations, it
went into effect immediately, and in or
der to adjust the scheme to the men
who had made no preparations for ex
aminations the requirements weresome
whafhmited. The act now has been in
operation a year and it is deemed proper
to make the examinations more search
ing and to establish a much higher or
der of requirements as a condition of
promotion. To that end new rules will
be prescribed, but in order that injustice
shall net be done all officers shall be af
forded ample time to prepare themselves
for the ordeal. Rules will not be ap
plied until January 1, 1893.

The leading cigar manufacturers of
New York held a meeting Wednesday
for the formation of a gigantic cigar
trust, to include all prominent cigar
manufacturers in the United States. It
is proposed to organize on the same
lines as the consolidation of the leading
cigarette factories. The combination
will include 25,000 manufacturers with
an aggregate capital of $25,000,000. A
committee was appointed and arrange
ments are well under way. It is pro
posed for the combine to buy leaf to
bacco direct from the planters and save
middlemen's profits.

Parnell Dead.
Charles Stuart Parnell, the great Irish
leader, died at his home, Welsingham
Terrace, Brighton, at 11:30 Tuesday even
ing. The account of his death states
that Parnell arrived at Brighton from
Ireland Wednesday of last week, when
he complained of suffering from chills.
Friday he was unable to leave his bed
and his regular physician was sum
moned. He considered Parnell's illness
so serious that he sent for another phy
sician, with whom he held a long con
sultation. This consultation was re
sumed Sunday, when Parnell was in
great pain and growing weaker every
hour. His sickness was pronounced an
attack of acute rheumatism. He
was untiringly nursed by his wife, who
hardly left his bedside from the moment
that his illness was pronounced serious.
Parnell did not seem to rally, but grew
weaker and weaker. Several hours be
fore death he became unconscious and
so remained until he died. Owing to
the suddenness of the Irish leader's ill
ness and the belief of his wife and phy
sicians that he would recover no friends
or relatives were present when he died
except Mrs. Parnell and the physicians.
Charles Stuart Parnell was born at
Avondale, County Wickham, Ireland, in
1847, the son of a country gentleman
of English descent, whose estate he in
herited. His mother waH the daughter
of the American Admiral Stuart. Par
nell was a graduate of the University of
Cambridge. He was elected member of
parliament for Meath in 1875 and rep
resented that constituency until 1880,
when he was elected by three constit
uencies. He chose Cork, of which city
and country lie remained a represent
ative in the house of commons to the
time of his death. A leader from the
beginning of his parliamentary careen
he founded and was the first president
of the National Irish Land League. He
twice visited America, first in 1880.
Subsequently he was chosen president
of the home rule party. Toward the
close of 1880 he was imprisoned on the
charge of seditious conspiracy. The
jury failed to agree and he was liberated.
The great libel suit brought againBt the
London Times in connection with the
forged Piggot letters and the complete
vindication and triumph of Parnell is
well remembered, as also the O'Shea
scandal, the development of which ser
iously impaired his political standing
and lost him the Irish leadership, at
home and in parliament.
Helena Policeman Shot.
Word was received in this city yester
day that Policeman Grogan of Helena
had been shot and probably fatally in
jured Thursday night. The assailant of
the policeman is supposed te have been
the same individual who held up Con
ductor Richardson Tuesday night and
relieved him of his watch and silver, as
the shooting occurred in the same local
ity and the description tallies with that
given of the highwayman by Mr. Rich
ardson. Particulars are meagre, but
from information received, it appears
that Policeman Grogan was approach
ing Seventh avenue and Ewing street
when he noticed a man standing in the
recess of a building, and interrogated
him as to what he was doing there.
Receiving no answer and noticing that
the man had both hands in his pockets,
Grogan demanded that he remove them
and deliver up his gun which the police
man rightly conjectured he was at
tempting to conceal. The man appar
ently complied with the request by turn
ing over one revolver to the officer, and
at the same time disengaging his other
hand, in which be also had a gun, began
firing. Four shots were fired, all of
which took effect in the officer's abdo
men, after A'hich the foot-pad made
his escape. It is believed ^the wounds
of Grogan will prove fatal. The people
of Helena are thoroughly aroused over
this affair, following as it does so closely
upon the bold hold-up of Richardson,
and if ihe policeman's assailant is dis
covered and identified threats are made
that swift and summary justice will be
meted out to him.
General Grunt'» Mutile Un veiled.
The great bronze statue of General
Grant was unveiled at Chicago Wednes
day with appropriate ceremonies. A
flotilla of war vessels and shipping of all
kinds covered the lake front, while
massed in front of the statue were nearly
20,000 uniformed men, infantry, cavalry
and artillery, grizzled veterans of the
Grand Army of the Republic, bright
plumed Knights of Pythias and many
similar semi-military and civic organiza
tions. Among distinguished visitors
were Mrs. General Grant, Seoretary No
ble, Senator John Sherman, Governor
Rulkaly of Connecticut, Governor Fifer
of Illinois and Mrs. John A. Logan. The
oration was delivered by J udge Walter
Q. Gresham, who closed with these
words: "The vast majority of the peo
ple are patriotic and sound to the core.
In them is our main stay and chief de
pendence. Our confidence in their
steady and unfaltering love of country,
which is indifferent about any show of
itself and speaks only in its acts, will
•ever be misplaced. It was this sort of
patriotism that was personified in Grant."
Tired of Idle.
A Demersville dispatch of the 30th
<eaya: A man named Courtvaaeunen,
wko lives on a ranch about five miles
down the river, tried to kill himself this
afternoon by shooting himself through
the intestines with a rifle. His wife be
gan an action for divorce some time ago,
but the decree has not yet been granted.
The couple has had considerable diffi
jmrity lately and a great many family
quarrels have beea indulged in. He
came to town in the afternoon and on
returning home and earing for the hone
which he rode to town, he -obaerved his
wife and anether man walking in the
toad and he started after them with a
rifle. When he was some distance from

to attend the wounded man. It is said
by parties who came in from the place
where it occurred that the man cannot
live. He did not drink any liquor dur

perfectly sober at the time of the at

troubles seem to be the only cause for
the rash act.
Death of Judge Liddell.
Judge Moses J. Liddell died at his
home in Bozeman Sunday morning
from the effects of a virulent carbuncle
and subsequent heart trouble. The fu
neral took place Monday afternoon and
the remains were interred in the Boze
man cemetery. Judge Liddell was a
native of \ irginia, a son of the noted
General Liddell. At the time of his
death he was 4i years of age. He leaves
a wife and son. He came to Montana in
April, 1888, as an appointee of President
Cleveland to fill the position of judge of
the Sixth Judicial district. When state
judges were elected in 1889 he was de
feated for the position by Judge Frank
Henry of this city. Since his retirement
from the bench and until his death
Judge Liddell has tieen successfully en
gaged in the practice of law.
His father, General Liddell, came into
special prominence by his connection
with the Liddell-Jones feud, which is
said to be described in Mark Twain's
"Huckleberry Finn." In 1886 this feud
was ended by General Liddell and his
partisans going to the Jones plantation
and killing Colonel Jones and all the
rest of the Jones family in sight. The
only one who escaped was the well
known Cuthbert Jones of Washington,
D. C. He erawled out of a window and
hung by his hands to a ledge until the
Liddells had left the house without dis
covering him. A baby brother was also
spared. Young Jones immediately left
the state. General Liddell served as
consul to Algeria, when he returned a
few years ago and sought a similar po
sition under Cleveland. He was op
posed by Floyd King, formerly in con
gress from Louisiana, and Jones and
King had several wordy wars through
the newspapers at the time. Judge
Liddell took no part in the encounters
above mentioned. He was a typical
southern gentleman of the old school
and was held in high esteem by all who
knew him.
Terrific Explosion at Butte
Friday evening of last week fire broke
out in the elevator shaft of the Butte
Copper Company's mine, owned and
operated by the Blue Bird Mining com
pany at Butte. The fire soon became
uncontrollable, and then the word was
given that there was powder in the
building, and the 200 men employed got
out of the way as soon as possible. This
was all that prevented a long death roll.
A bout 600 pounds of powder were in the
shaft house. The house was ruined, as
were seven small dwellings in the vicin
ity. Timbers were thrown a distance of
400 feet and glass in windows broken
even farther away. The only ones ser
iously injured were Mrs. Joseph Papesh
and her 13-months-old baby, who were
terribly cut. The infants' face is so
badly mangled that she is scarcely rec
ognizable.
Down in the mine at the time of the
explosion were three men. They were
standing in the bottom of the shaft,
which is 170 feet in depth. The explos
ion loosened the bucket at the top of
the shaft, and it descended on the three
men below. Jack Richardsand Michael
Zepp were struck by it and knocked over.
Richards was only bruised, and was able
to climb to the surface by the ladder,
Zepp was hauled up by a rope and
taken to the hospital, where he died the
following day from his injuries.
Penrose Suspects Bound Over.
The preliminary examination of Dee
ney, Hickey and Kelly, accused of the
murder of W. J. Penrose, which has oc
cupied the public attention the past two
months, is at last concluded. The tes
timony, which was voluminous, was all
in last Saturday, when the court, com
posed of Judge McMurphey and Associ
ate Justice Herbert, announced that an
adjournment would be taken until
Thursday morning in order to permit
them to review the evidence. At 9:30
Thursday morning, after the convening
of Judge McMurphey's court, he sum
moned the prisoners before him and de
livered the decision briefly, as follows:
In tha matter of the examination of
Philip Hickey, William Deeney and Eu
gene Kelley, as heard before this court,
after conferring with my associate, Jus
tice Herbert, he confirms me in the opin
ion, and our decision is that these de
fendants be held to answer to the dis
trict court for the crime with which
they are charged.
The question as to whether the de
fendants would be admitted to bail, and
if so in what sum, was raised, and the
court reserved its decision until the fol
lowing morning.
The Anaetw«**» Ke*nme.
A dispatch from Anaconda of the 4th
inst. says: This is a day of joy and
thanksgiving, the result of Marcus
Daly's announcement that the Ana
conda mines and smelters would resume
operations within ten days. It is un
derstood that in the compromise ef
fected between the Anaconda company
and the Montana Union railroad the
former was victorious m nearly all the
principal points in dispute. Already
the city has assumed fresh l,fe and
activity. The merchants who, owing to
the uncertainty of the situation, have
allowed their stocks to run very low,
ue preparing to rush ahead orders for
big supplie« of goods. It is worthy of
not© that while many saloons and gam
bling house# have closed up since the
beginning of the suspension last April,
only one merohant has failed and the
failure was insignificant The people
have borne the hard times bravely. An
aconda, whose popnlation has fallen off
of
from 6,o00 to 3,000, will probably re
cover her former prosperity in a month's
time. It is difficult to exaggerate the
happiness of the people here today.
Everybody is celebrating in his own pe
culiar style.

How to Detect Them.
In view of what the Minnesota senate
has done, it is ho{>ed that legislative
bodies in other states will soon take up
the subject of food adulteration. The

taining ammonia and alum, compiled
from official reports and published in a
recent number of the Scientific Ameri
can, is given below. "It deals in a di

Ammonia and alum are the most com
mon adulterants used in the manufac
ture of baking powders. The govern
ment report shows that a large percent
age of the baking powders on the mar
ket contain either one or the other, or
both these pernicious drugs.
What woman would use an ammonia
or alum baking powder if she knew it?
Such powders not only undermine the
health, but ammonia gives to the com
plexion a sallow or blotched appearance.
The presence of ammonia or alum in a
baking powder, however, can easily be
detected.
To Detect Ammonia.- Mix one hepiang
teaspoonful of baking powder with one
teaspoonful of water in a tin cup; boil
thoroughly for a few moments, stir to
prevent burning and if ammonia is pres
ent you can smell it in the rising steam.
Or, place a can of the suspected powder
top down on a hot store for a minute or
two, then take off the cover and smell.
To Detect Alum .—Alum powder can be
tested by putting a couple of teaspoon
fuis of the powder in a glass of cold
water. If no effervescence, that is bub
bling or simmering takes place, condemn
the powder and return it at once.
Some alum powders, however, like the
"Calumet," "Bon Bon," "Chicago Yeast,"
etc., contain phosphates in combination
with alum, and with these brands the
following test is simple and sure:
Take one-half teaspoonful of baking
powder in lid of say half pound can;
char thoroughly over a strong alcohol
flame, a good gas jet or red hot coals.
After charing (that is, burning until the
whole mass is black), add a teaspoonful
of water and place a bright piece of sil
ver coin in the solution. Stir for one
minute, then take out the silver. If the
powder prove a cream of tartar powder
the coin will be bright; if an alum pow
der it will have sulphur stains.
Now pour a little vinegar into the lid
and smell the fumee. Alum powders
give off sulphuretted hydrogen, which
may be detected by its foul odor.
