Kranxey, Nob., August 30.—| Special Tel- egram to Tue Bee ] —Tho Omaha team vis- ited Kearney to-day and played the Kearney amateur champions at the ball park this afternoon, which resulted in 12 to 5 in tavor of the Omahas, ad throwing in the first four innings and an inability to locate the bull when Omaha was at the bat in the fifth «cost the home team dearly. The last four nnings were well played and the boys rullcll up a couple of poiuts, but it was too ate. The Omuha boys are heavy hitters, and as tho loadors of the Western leaguo were the most formidable opponents the Kearney state champions have met.

Report of Department of Agri Chemists, WasHINGTON, August 80.—The. baking powder investigation which has: been con- ducted under the direction of 'thé 'chewmists of the department of agriculture has been comploted and the results compiled in bulle- tin form. The analysis of a large number of the various samples of baking powders and the corclusions derived therefrom, the re . port sayss are not such as to creste general alarm lest the American people should suffer injury to health from the use of baking pow- der. At the samo time they' show concius- ively the error of the popular impression pre- vailing hitherto that_all chémicals ‘iséd in the production of baking powders are ex- pelled duriag the process of buking.

The report says an exception bught to be made in reeard to that class of pawaers.con- taiing alum, to which there is more. sorious objection. It gives some interesting facts as to the baking powder industry and gays the American people pay at least $25,000,000 a year for baking powder and thatthe cost to the manufacturers is less than one-third of that amount. . —— e The Bar Association.

Among the crow of husky laborers who polished off pe and devoured corned bef at her table d'hote was AlSquires, a young man of good address and ©easy habits, who makes & living rolling salt barrels and other like work that ho can se- cure. Alsaw Ella and Ella gazed upon Al, and both were smitten. Theice of formality was 80on broken, and in a short time the two were more than friends, Ella loved him,but alas, not wisely but too well. She suc- cumbed to his entreaties and this morning bewails her fate, It was about eight months since that Elia's sister, who is & young woman of more than average intelligence, noticed that Ella was not in &s good health as was her wont. She communicated her suspicions to her mother, who 'ridiculed. the Iine 6t first, und said nothing was the matter. But one bright morning the young woman was taken deathly sick and a terrible commotion ensued in the Morgan family, in which Al took part. Ho was sent for & doctor and_in a short time re- turned with one, Mr. Solomon, who is well known to the residents of Omaha and vicmity, ‘The eminent disciple of Esculapius looked at” the girl, felt her pulse, looked at her tongue and pronounced her suffering from “dropsy.” He lofta prescription, and after saying she would be all right in ' fow days, weat on his way searching for new cases. But Ella did not_improve. On the con- trary, she grew worse, and this morning’s sun is looking down upon a pale girl hover- ing between the bright gladness of earth and the dark unexpiored future—the mother of an iilexitimate babe. The “dropsy” grew worse and Solomon was forced to admit that he knew nothing of the mattes and & second physician was called in, in the person of Dr. Bellnger, of Council Blufts, He gave her powders, lotions, mix- tures and elixirs, but the disease still clung with its tenacious grip until nature asserted herself and a bouncing boy has been added to the population of this great and growing city. The child was born on Thursday morning. Tts papa was on hand in a short time and ac- kuowledged the paternity of the in- fant. With a father's characteristic feolings on the subject, he at once decided that he would take care of i, and turned it over to his sister, Mrs. Kato Staanard, who, with her husband, Wil lives on ' South Twenticth, for carc. estimablo lady kissed her nepnew and took him home, Yesterday she brought it back, and after fliuging 1t on tae bed avnounced that she had enough chilaren to take care of and that she dian’t want the kid around. Then sho flirted out and Papa Squires took the child and began a series of promenaaes around th block with it. In the mcantime a little wordy war sprang up between the women, which ended in the patrol wagon calling, with Sergeant Haze in charge, armed with a warrant for somebody’s arrest on a charge he knew nothing about. After looking around for a time and seeing nothing suspicious he left in disgust and the reporter to7K up the trail, If the story of the Morgan family be true, the medical geutlemen, assisted by Mr. Squires, have been acting n_the case in a manner somewhat unusual i accouchement, matters. A gister of the girl said last night: “When Dr. Solomon called he informed us that Ella was suffering from dropsical trouble, and that she would 8005 beuver it. I had my suspicions all the time, for I am not a_ fool, but said nothing. As time wore on Llla's condition became more apparent to me, but motner, experienced as she is, did not suspeet angthing, Then Dr. Bellinger was called in, and he also said the trouble was dropsy. 'He snid the case was serious and left 1ots of medicine. But it did no good and yesterday the baby was born.” “Let me sce some of the medicine,” was asked, “Well, here are some powders,” replied Miss Morgan, handing over two. “The ones in the white vaper were given first, but the; failed to be of uny service, and be gave th, in the yellow paper. He said at the time that the last were very dangerous, and should bo kept away out of reach aud be very carefully hatdled and taken.” ‘Tho powders are now in the hands of an anaiytical chemist. Continuing, Miss Morgan said: “That was not all the medicine we had. Why, the house looked like a drug store, Here are some of the'bottles,” Tho bottles are first a large one, holding aboul’ @ half pint. “‘Prescription 9,579, warked for Miss M., obtained at Deil G Morgan & Co.’s drug store, 742 Lower Broad- way, Council Bluffs. Dr. Bellinger.” This Dottie was cmpty. The second is nearly the same size, and ‘bears ito prescription, but_according to the womah's'statement, was obtained about threo weceks ago at the Goodman Drug company's store, on Farnam strect. This was also Bell- inger's medicine, The third is prescription 8,724, Parrs Tenth streev pharmacy, by. Dr. Hellinger. The prescription wus exmnined last night by a reporter and is; Fluid ex. dandelion, 16z vuchu, 8 drs,; preara brada, fluid ex., 1 oz ; stone root, fluid ex., enough 1o make 3 The last bottle which was “sent over' by Bellinger, a day or two since, is from Morgan’s store in Council Biuffs and is from Dr. Bellinger, prescription 2322, “Dr, Bellinger told us,” said Miss Morgzan, “that Ella would have to be where he could seo her all the time, and_that he would have 1o take her to Council Bluffs. He said that he had rented a room and hired a nurse, but mother would not lev her go and she stayed here.” “But where is the baby?” was the question. 40h, it's out to Stannard’s, on and Centre street,” was the reply, he would take it there.” Then the roporter went to Twentisth and Ceptre, but no one in the neighborhood koew Stanuard. When he returned the woman $aid that perhaps he had taken it to nis mother's house, on the B. & M. track, between South Omaba and Bellevue, ‘There is evidently something very myste- riougaboutthe matier. When the girl was first put finder treatment she is said to have re- celved Instructions notto let the family see all the medicine she was taking, but keep it concealed. How well she did so is ¢ denced by the fact that not only the drugs but the spoon from which she took them was carefully hidden, the latter bewng tied up in her dress, The medicine must have been a strong avid, as it ate the nickei plate off the spoon. It was not until the time for conflue- went approached o near that concealment was no longer possible that all medicine was next Twentieth **Al said mother i8 nearly heartbroken over the matter, and, to add to her grief, her daughter's chances for recovery are very shm indeed. According to the family’s statement, Bellinger, on qlil last visit, in- formed ner that Klla had taken enough poi- son to kill an ordinary woman, and that if shé had not a constitution like iron she would have died long ago. All the medicine is in the hands of parties who will have it examined, and a rigid in- vestigation will probably follow. e Try Mihalovitch’s Hungarian black- berry juice, it kills pain in the stomach.

The age of the timber appearing from the bleaching of the surface and weather-worn appearance, such as charavterizes an old telegraph pole, and that upon all work where such material is now upon the ground, that the same be removed and the work be suspended until the contractors are able to deliver good, elean, sound material, such as the contract fequires, and the people and city are paying or, Resolved, further, that the general charao- ter of the blocks yvet unlaid and before us on North Twenty-second street are not up to the standard required, and must bo ro- moved and the work suspended until proper material is supplied.
