Conner,” the well-known artist of this city, which are at presentin Mr. A. Hospe, Jr.'s, art studlo. The por- traits are those of Col. E. F. Smythe and his little daughter, Edn-, and we feel warranted in saying that they are as fine specimens of tha artists’ handiwork as ve have ever seen any- where. Theso pictures have bsen greatly admired by the best co noiseurs in the city, and will in a few daye be placed on exhibition in the windows of the store of A. Cruick- shank & Co. where they may bo soen by all.

Alum Baking Powdersin Court —Interesting Testimony of Scientific Men. New York Times. Within the past two yesrs, a bitter controversy has been waged between manufacturers, on account of the use of alum as a cheap substitute for Cream of Tartar, by many manufacturers of baking powders. The handsome pro- fits yielded by using this substitute have induced dealers as well as manu- ticturers to push them in the hands of cousumere, sometimes under definite brands, frequently by weighing out in bulk without any distinguishing name, Are such powders wholesome? The Royal Baking Powder Co., who make & Cream of Tartar biking powder, declared that they are injarions to the public health, while others who make alam powder clsim that they arenot. The whole matter as to the ©ffects of these slum powders, has finally been brought into the courts, and the case was tried in the Superior Court of Now York city before Chicf Justice Sadgwick, reported substan- tially as follows in the “N. Y. Sun.” NCLUSION OF A LITTLY TROUBLE BE- TWEEN A CHEMIST AND AN EDITOR, The suit of Dr. Henry A, Mott against Jabex Burns has brought 10 Tight the fact that this cotintry pro duces at least forty-twodifferent kinds of baking powders. Neither Burns nor Mott has been found guilty of making the baking powders, but Burns, who is the editor of periodi- cal called The Spice Mill, has been se- verely mulcted for libel in hia efforts to make his paper spicy. Dr. Mott, it appears, is a chemist, and 2t one time was emploged by the United | States government to analyza diffor- ent specimens of baking powder which had been_recommended for adeption to the Tndian bureau. Dr. Mott re- ported in favet of the créam of tartar bsking powders for the Indians and aganst the alum baking powdors. entirely satisfied with the decisions cf the supromo court aud Judge Savage, and that «f courze he should proceed no farther. He said the whole matter had been conducted #ith the utmost goed feeling on his part as well as that of the com- missioners and that he cheerfully ac- iesced in the result. All he wanted was what was right. He felt that he vas right in pushing his claim and now that the case had beon decided against hita he had nothing more to say.

As the public have a large interest in the wholesomenoss of whatever it is called upon to uss as food, the fol- lowing extracts aro introduced from the tastimony of some of the promi- alent men as to the injurious effects of alum powders. Dr. Morr: Q. Were you employed by the U. S. government? A. I was, sir; was employed as chemist, to analyze all the articles of food; to express an_opinion a8 to tho analysis of their healthfulness and purity. Q.. Please tell the jury the Baking Powders that you examined while in tho employ of the government? A. It would be difficult to remem- ber them all; T could refer to my books; I examined twenty-eizht posw- was given sixteen at firat, the Court: Give youz bes lection. Q.

Because the injurious effects of alumina,when it gets into the stomach and roscts on the organs, aro tho same; this hydrate of alumina meets in the stomach the gnlric Juices, and reacts with them thé ssme as alum would: it forms, in fac*, a kind of alum in the stomach with those acids, and whatever alum would do, it would do.

What, sir, two years ago, was the prevailing opinion among scientific men, as to the effect of the use of alum in Baking Powders} A. As far an my acquaintance with scientific men is concerned, my per- sonal opinion is derived from my in- vestigation and from reading; I should think the opinion was that alum, or hy compound of slumins, would_be decidedly injurious. Q. Do I uaderstand you to say that any baking powder in which there are altminous salts, ot any resultant from alum which could be sbsorbed in di: ion, Is objectionable and injurious! A.
