A Grape Cream of Tartar Powder Absolutely Pure Royal makes the most delicious and healthful hot-breads, biscuit and cake. For safety sake, use only a baking powder whose label shows it is made with cream of tartar. * * * * * * Alum baking powders are considered so injurious to health, and their promiscuous sale a source of such danger, that their use is universally condemned by physicians and health officers. In many States the law requires that they shall be branded to warn consumers that they contain alum. In the District of Columbia, under the laws of Congress, the use of alum in bread, biscuit, cake and other food is a mis- demeanor. Alum baking powders may be known by their price. Pow- ders sold from ten to twenty-five cents a pound, or twenty-five ounces for twenty-five cents, are not made of cream of tartar.

CRAWFORD. Mrs. Minnie Davis, comely and on thir- ty’s bright 'side, frequently grinned be- hind the gloved hand that propped her firmly cut chin as she sat alongside her counsel in Police Judge Conlan’s court nd harkened to gray-halred H. P. Rob- on narrate how 310,300 had passed trom his control to hers and defied all his efforts to recover it. Behind the woman her husband, jointly accused with her of having defrauded Mr. Robson of his treasure, sat with a little boy squatted upon the parental Kknees. The youngster watched the proceedings with big, round, wandering eyes, and to him the female defendant often turned and bestowed a glance of profound tenderness. The father was morosely heedless of the spectacular ebullitions of maternal af- fection. Mr, Robson’s narrative was eagerly im- bibed by a packed auditory, for his reticence at the time he filed complaint occasigned all kinds of conjecture as to his re?allonsmp with the Davises. But while the tale was interesting, it ap- parently fell short of the salaclousness expeoted. Only the woman's probity was directly assailed. Briefly recapitulated, the story was‘that Mr. Robson and the defendants were such close friends in Humboldt County that he was called “Uncle” by them, and when Mr. Davis fell ill and was medically ad- vised to take hospital treatment in this city “Uncle” accompanied the family here, bringing along his entire cash capi- tal, $11,000, in a bag. They rented a house on the third block of Frederick street, and as soon as they were falrly settled down Mrs. Davis suggested that “Uncle’s™ wealth be deposited somewhere for safe keeping. “But,” she sald to him, who was her avuncular relative in name only, “I wouldn’t put it all in one bank if T were you, because no bank i8 proof against bustin’. I'd seatter it around. And if I were in your place I'd be well guarded while all that money was {n my pos¢ gession. The papers are full of hold-ups on the public streets. Al and I will go with you.” Thus the trio sallied forth, Mr. Robson carrying the cash bag, Mrs. D walk- ing alongside of him and Al, with a revolver ready for instant use, bringing up the reaf as convoy. They visited va- rlous banks, and in each of them Mrs. Davis took from the bag $3000 or $4000 ang deposited it-in her name. Then, witi both bag and heart lightened, Mr. Rob- son escorted Mrs. Davis to the Diamond Palace and told ‘her, to go inside and purchase for $150 a diamond ring, which he had selected for her Christmas pres- ent. He walted at the door untll she emerged. and’'when sghe displayed to him not only the ring, but also a pair of diamond ear screws marked $150 and told him she bought them, too, he did not seriously demur. Nor did he balk at paying any of the bills presented to him by the two hos- pitals in which Mr. Davis underwent treatment. That item alone cost him $700. While the husband was in the hospital Mr. Robson guarded the wife and child in the modest home on Fred- erick street and when the eonvalescent returned to the bosom of his family it was Mrs. Davis who proposed the trip to Upper Lake. At Upper Lake, she sald, there was a “snap” to be obtained in the way of a hotel purchase, and why couldn't she and “uncle” go up there and investigate it for themselves, while Al stayed at home and minded baby? Ever ready to oblige the lady, Mr. Robson packed his valise and was at her service. But when he inspected the “srap” he did not think it was worth the price demanded and he so informed Mrs. Davis, who thereupon showed temper. They stayed at the same hostelry and through somebody’s stupid blunder his valise got into her apartment and her valise into his, and while there were stage riding back to Ukiah she roundly gcolded him for having “mashed” her hat. Nor was her ire appeased when they arrived at the Mendocino County capi- tal, for she there claimed his valise as her own and also declined to stay in the same hotel with him. The follow- ing morning he was gratified to find her in the dining-room' of his inn, but she flounced out when he entered and when he asked the landlord for/ his bill he was relieved by the Information that the lady had. pald it—relieved because she had his vallse and his entire cash capital was 10 cents and his most valu- able collateral a return ticket to San Francisco. ‘When he boarded the train he found Mrs. Davis seated beside a strange and formidable appearing man, with his (Mr. R.'s) valise at his feet. Mr. Rob- son took a seat at the other end of the car and thus the abruptly severed friends kept their respective places un- til Tipuron was arrived at. There Mr. Robson boarded,the-ferry-boat. He did not see Mrs, Davis do likewise. 3 At the home on Frederick street Mr. Robson found Al and the baby In seem- ing content. . “Where is Mary Ann?” the husband and father inquired, “Mary Ann” being his pet appellation for his better half. “I don't know,” Mr. Rob- son truthfully replied.. “Why didn’t she cgme home with you?” Al querfed, with the natural solicltude of a devoted benedict. “We had a little tiff,” was Mr. Robson’s reply, “and I ain’t going to say any more about it. . Let her tell it.” Then he went to bed and slept. When morning broke. Mr. Robson, also broke, found himself the eole hu. man occupant of the house. He has- tened to the co g‘{ooan and asked whi if either of the ses had recently been 'there, was returncd he feared the worst. Time strengthened that fear, for neither of those whom he sought reappeared at the deserted home. X ‘When he visited the banks in which Mrs. Davis had deposited his $10.300 he was told there was no account there in his name, mnor could he ascertain whether she had withdrawn the sums 'she had put in. So In despair he told his trouble to a policeman. with the result that the two vises were ar- rested on warrants charging felony. Accompanfed by his attorney, Mr. Rob- son called at the City Prison to- identify the Davises and incidentally endeavor to learn what had become of his money, and FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY negative reply | partments, ' ‘mm.

L. Elmquist, a carpenter in the em- ploy of the United Railroads, who is said to be possessed of $15,000, must de- fend himself against charges made by Anna Anderson, a governess, to the ef- fect that he proposed marriage to her, then jilted her without cause. Miss Anderson filed suit yesterday to recover $10,000 damages for breach of promise. She says that on April 15 of last year she consented to become Elm- quist’s bride and was looking happily forward to the 'day of their wedding, when Elmquist informed her that he had decided to remain single and asked her to release him from his pledge. This she refused to do, but he jilted her notwithstanding. Now she asks that he be compelled to pay well for his fickleness. patrons of the house, that he will endeavor to make his place the best in the city. nfi nu"'m- a Ballding Operations Brisk.

Market Two Entrances SURPLUS FUND WILL BE SPENT upervisors’ Finance Com- mitte Is to Allow Over- drafts on - Appropriations FREARy Ak s The Supervisors’ Finance Committee yesterday inaugurated proceedings for drawing on the surplus fund of some $120,000 resulting from the excess tax rev- enue on the increased assessment roll The committee is confronted with the fact that the regularly apportioned mu- nicipal funds have been overdrawn in vio- lation of the one-twelfth clause of the charter by the sum of $38,000, as reported by its expert. The committee proposes to make up this overdraft by drawing on whatever funds are now in the possession of the municipality, and has arranged with the Auditor to pay the demands for the amounts allowed to the different de- partments for various purpeses. The Fire Commission was allowed $20,000 above its regular appropriation, but $10,000 of this sum will be utilized to make up a deficiency of the latter amount in the appropriation. The other $10,000 will be used to purchase thirty-eight horses. The Commissioners asked for $40,000 to purchase 150 horses, but the committee did not see its way clear to grant the request. The commission was advised to retrench in its expenses dur- ing the rest of the fiscal year. The committee also allowed the Board of Works $20,000 to clean the streets, and this sum must also come out of the sur-! plus fund. The Election Commission was allowed $4000 to make up a deficiency In other funds which were used to pay the ex- penses incurred in the care of the vut- ing machines used at the last election. WOULD REVOKE CONTRACT. The Commissioners of Works com- plained to the committee that Alva B. Clute, who has the contract to furnish teams for removing refuse from the streets, was unable to supply the teams required. Clute desires to be released from his contract, and the committee directed the Board of ‘Works to send a communication to the board asking that the contract be declared forfeited. The contract was awarded by the last Board of Supervisors to Clute for $4 68 for each team, the prevailing rate being $6. The Board of Works objected at the time to what it regarded as a usurpa- tion of its powers, and the committee de- cided to lcave the matter in the hands of the board named as the charter pro- vides. TO PARK DOLORES STREET. A committee of ladles from the Cali- fornta Outdoor Art League urged the Finance Committee to allow 31500 In ad- dition to $1000 already avallable to com- plete the parking of Dolores street. The committee agreed to provide the money when the next budget is compiled, in June, for the building of two islands on either side of Sixteenth street on Dolores. Action on the petition of Sheriff O'Nell that provision be made for the appoint- ment of three cooks in the County Jalls was postponed awalting the recommen- dation of the Mayor in the matter. The petition of Michael O’Donnell to compromise for $2000 his claim to part of Franklin Square, on Santa Clara street, was referred to the City Attorney n on. m’{'h‘e c%me raised the salary of An- gelo Byrne, stenographer of the Police Board, from $125 to $150 per month, sub- ject to the approval of the Mayor. The Board .of Works was allowed $3000 0 re-dress old basalt blocks to be used in repaving streets under the bond issue. The committee directed that the Clvil Service Commission be allowed to utilize a surpl pay for the an exal aminations. R Does Big Business.
