Intelligence.
From the North to the South.
The committee appointed at Tuesday
evening's railroad meeting had a talk of
an hour with Mr. Young yesterday morn
ing. He assured the committee that he re
presented a syndicate of gentlemen who
had plenty of money and were investing it
in profitable railroad enterprises. They
had already constructed a road from
Duluth into the Michigan pineries and
also a road in Tennessee and Georgia.
They believed a north and south road
from the gulf to Dakota would bo a suc
cess financially , and they wore now ,
through him , He-curing right of
way in Kansas , through Indian territory
and farther south. The lOmalm Southern
road is to bo a part of this system , and
now ho made a proposition concerning
the Omaha & Yanktou , which is to bo
another part. The company is now
working industriously in Kansas from
Abilene northward , because ) of the pas
sage by the legislature of that slate last
year of an inimical law which prohibits
any town or county voting a greater
subsidy than 3,000 per mile. This law
becomes of oll'ect on July 1. Hence the
efforts of the syndicate to obtain as many
inducements ns possible from these
places and sections before that date.
The Omaha Southern is not a now
prpjcct to readers of the HUB , who may
nave read of the filing of its articles of
incorporation witli the secretary of state
last winter. It proposes to run from
Omaha to Syracuse , Neb. , and thence in
a more southwesterly course to the Kan
sas line , where it takes the name of the
Kansas Southern. Among the incorporators -
ators of the Omaha Southern several
gentlemen of this city were named , but
none have financial interests except Mr.
H. T. Ulark.
It is possible Mr. 13. F. Smith is interes
ted , but his remarks at the meeting Tues
day evening led to the impression that
hu was not , although ho he'artily favors
the project , as well us ho does that of the
Milwaukee.
Mr. Youngsaid to the committcoycstcr-
day morning that it would bo necessary
for him to consult with his associates. Ho
would return in a week or ten days with
n specific proposition. The committee
told him frankly that they would want
to know three things : The
financial responsibility ot himself
and the * gentlemen associated with
him ; the exact route of the road ; and as
surances that , when built , it would not be
turned over to any corporation which
would discriminate against Omaha.
While ho is gone the committee will in
vestigate his responsibility.
The YanktonVnyno \ and other north
ern town representatives left for homo
yesterday morning highly pleased with
the result of their negotiations. They are
satisfied that Omaha will meet them
moro than half way.
It was stated Tuesday evening in the
cours of ono great man's remarks , that
Air. Young hail hesitated somewhat before
making the proposition regarding the
Omaha and Yankton. His reason for
such hesitation was that the companv
had in view the completion of its line in
Kansas first , from Abilcno to the Ne-
brasda boundary , and then the general
construction in Nebraska was to immedi
ately follow. But thn-arguracnts of the
Omaha gentlemen , who showed that now
Was the accepted time , finally overcome
this reluctance.
This road runs through some improved
and populous and some wild country.
Of a necessity it can obtain no grants and
the asking of subsidies is , therefore , its
only means of getting assistance toward
purchase of rights of way. It is calcu
lated that the amount asked for between
hero and Yankton will barely do moro
than this.
SHE WANTED TO DIE.
Mrs. Curran Books Solace in a Dose
of .Laudanum.
Mrs. Curran , the woman whoso domes
tic troubles have been recorded in the
papers for several days , created a sensa
tion yesterday morning by swallowing si
dose of laudanum anaannouncing that she
was going to die. The family liyo at ! )2 ) (
llarnoy street , and Mr. and Mrs. Curran
have been having a high old time of late
over a boarder named Kane , who is ac
oused by Curran of being intimate will :
his wifo. Two physicians were sum
moned and emetics given to the would-be
suicide. This afternoon the woman was
much improved and bade fair to ngair
make matters pleasant around the board
ing house.
Changing From Muddy to BIuo.
The Omaha Rowing association will , it
all likelihood , accept a proposition foi
a ninety-nine year gratuitous lease ol
four acres on Lake Manawa- , two mile :
south of the dummy depot in Conner
Bluus ana erect a boat house to cost ! ? 50 (
there during the coming season. Then
are numerous reasons for this change
from Cut oiriakn , the chief of which is
the superior character of the water am :
beach of Lake Manawa. The course
there will bo throe miles witli a turn.
Mr. 11.1) . Hudson said to a reporter ,
"Try as wo will , it is well nigh impos
sible to get ui ) any public interest in row
ing on Cut otV lake. There is too mucli
mud involution. With Lake Manawa it if
different. It is n pretty clear body o
water , fed by Mosquito creek , and flow
ing into instead of out of the Missouri
It is shaped like a crab , and the bodj

OUR BREAD IN DANGER.
The Alarming Increase fci Baking
Powder Adulterations.
Among recent important discoveries by the food nnalyata
is that by Prof. MOTT , U. S. Government Chemist , of largo
amounts of lime and alum in the cheap baking powders. Ifc
is a startling fact that of over ono hundred different brands
of baking powder so far analyzed , comprising all those sold in
this vicinity , not ono , with the single exception of Royal
Baking Powder was found free from both lime and alum. ; > - i
Alum is used as a substitute for cream of tartar to produce
o cheap baking powder , ilt costs less than two cents a pound ,
whereas pure cream of tartar costs forty. Its effect upon the
system has been ascertained to bo poisonous , and overdoses
have been attended with fatal results. Limo is the most
useless adulterant yet found in baking powders. It is true that
when subjected to heat it gives off a certain amount of carbonic -
bonic acid gas , but a quicklime is left , one of the most powerful
caustics known.
The effect of limo upon the delicate membranes of the
stomach , intestines and kidneys , moro particularly of infanta
and children , and especially when taken into the system day
after day , and wjth almost every meal , -pernicious in the ex
treme. It is said by physicians to bo one of the chief causes
of indigestion , dyspepsia , and diseases of the kidneys. Chemists
have found 12 per cent. , ' or one-eighth of the weight , of some
of the baking powders prominently sold in this vicinity , to bo
lime. The wickedness ofrthis adulteration is apparent.
The absolute purity and wholesomencss of the Royal
Baking Powder now affirmed by every chemist and food
analyst of prormnence'and conceded by all manufacturers of
other brands arises fr < 5m the exclusive use of cream of tartar
which is specially refined by patent processes that totally remove
the lime and all other impurities. These facilities are possessed
by no other manufacturer.
( Dr.V. \ . G. TUCKER , Professor of Chemistry in the Albany ,
N. Y. , Medical College , whose analytical work in connection with
investigations of the food adulterations in the State of New
York has been extensive and thorough , sajra of the Royal
Baking Powder :
" The cream of tartar employed in its manufacture is free
from the limo which is a constituent of the improperly refined
cream of tartar of the market used by manufacturers of other
baking powders , and of most of the substitutes therefor which
enter into the composition of many powders , 'and ' in this im
portant respect , as well as in its general purity , and wholesomeness -
ness , the Royal Baking Powder is superior to any other
powder which I have examined. The constituents are so pro
portioned as to secure the best results and ! yield a baking
powder unequalled for purity , strength and whdlesomeness. "

THE NATION'S NATAJj DAY.
Tbo Knights ot Lmb'ir Organizing Far
a Grand Celebration.
For some reason , not generally known ,
i nt nil , Omaha has not for years past
had any aoncr.il celebration of the
nation's national day. There have been ,
roru vear to year , moro or less sickly
demonstrations which have passed as
'Fourth ' of July" celebrations. This
voar , however , there is promise of a radi
cal exception to the Eoner.il rule and the
indications are that Omaha will have a
clebnition this year that will surpass
anything of the kind over held iu the
state or in the west. The secret of the
specially favorable indications for a big
time , lies in the fact that the. Knights of
of Labor have taken the matter in charge
and they never do anything except in
thorough and creditable manner.
mimittcus of the K. of L. are now so
liciting subscriptions for funds to pro
vide a programme that will bo suitable
for the occasion. They have already se
cured the fair grounds for the holding of
the celebration. It is proposed to' form a
procession of the various trades aad soci
eties , the regular army , police , fire de
partment. manufactures and industrial
outfits. Over 100 musicians have been se
cured and will do service for the occa
sion. The programme , so far as outlined ,
includes addresses by speakers 'of ' na
tional repute , bicycle and foot races , bal
loon ascension , with an open air concert
and fireworks in the evening. The com
mittees who are soliciting subscriptions
should bo treated liberally by the busi
ness men of the city.
THE CHAC'KKK MAKERS.
Another Mooting of the Western
Manufacturers.
The leading cracker men of the west
met m convention again yesterday in
this city. Representatives are present
from the leading western cities. At the
convention in St. Joseph some time ago
the meeting came to a somewhat abrupt
termination by the withdrawal of certain
members who would not agree to the
scale of prices. A later meeting in Kan
sas ( Jiiy was moro harmonious , but still
affairs were loft in a degree unsettled. It
is expected that the present convention
will succeed in arranging a scale of
wholesale prices which will bo satisfac
tory to all concerned. Secret sessions
were hold yesterday morning and after
noon and again last night. The conven
tion is not half through with its work , sea
a member stated last niglrt , and will bo
in session during the whole of to-day.
