Sour bread is caused by poor yeast, or an excessive fermentation in the dough. Sour biscuits are caused by the use of an adulterated, impure, or improperly compounded baking powder. Both are unwholesome, producing intestinal derangements, indigestion, etc. The sour or alkaline taste attending the use of cheap, low-grade baking powders is due to the fact that such powders are not properly combined, and that the ingredients used in them are impure. The cream of tartar of the market used by their manufacturers is adulterated from five to twenty per cent. They do not know how much lime it contains, and hence are unable to mix it with the alkali. or soda, in proper proportions. As high as 11.83 per cent of lime has been found by the chemists in some of these powders, due to these causes. The result is an imperfect action which renders the bread, biscuit, or pastry heavy, sour, and disagreeable, or a residuum of lime and dirt, imparting a bitter taste to the food. Any baking powder that does this is unfit for use. There can be no heavy or sour bread, biscuit, or cakr where a perfectly made pure baking powder, like the liKoyal," is used. In the use of the Royal no residuum 1 -i't, and the loaf raised by it is always sweet, light, and v. 'lolesome, and noticeably free from the peculiar tastes l plained of. This is because it is composed of nothing . : absolutely pure materials, scientifically combined in ex-f.-.:ly the proper proportions of acid and alkali to act upon and destroy each other, while producing the largest amount raising power. We are justified in this assertion by the unqualified statements of the Government Chemists, who, after thorough and exhaustive tests, recommended .he u Royal" for Government use because of ita superiority over all others in purity, strength, and v.holesomeness. There is no danger of sour or bitter bread or biscuit where the Royal Baking Powder alone is used.

GRAHAM'S STATEMENT
Of His Illicit Relation With, Mrs. Emma Molloy and Cora. Lea. A Story Which Will Earn no. Compassion for the Talented Writer The Burden of His Soot is That the Wo men Tempted Him. SrBiKUFiELD, Mo., March 21. That the preliminary examination of Mrs. Emma Molloy and Cora (Lee) Graham, as accessories in the murder of Sarah Graham (for which crime George E. Graham is now confined in the jail of this County), should arouse the interest of thousands of men and women throughout the country is not to be wondered at when it is considered that Mrs. Molloy has for the past fifteen years been prominently before the publi and hi3 been awarded a place of distinction as the most eloquent and magnetic female orator in America. Her fort is revival meetings and temperance Crusades, and wherever she went her converts were numbered by hundreds. In the temperance campaigns of Ohio and Indiana she attained special prominence, and in a tour of England a few years ago she electrified the slow-goin? inhabitants of the Isle of Britain and won laurels only less to be prized than those bestowed, both before and since, in her own country. At the time of her arrest as an accessory in the terrible crime of murder she was engaged in the conduct of an unusually successful revival at Peoria, III., and the developments of her trial thus far have been such as to shock those who believed in the purity of her character. It is unnecessary to enter into details as to the other members of the trio upon whom public attention is centered at this time. Cora Lee is Mrs. Molloy's foster-daughter, and George Graham, who married Cora while lie had a wife back in Indiana, is a protege who came into the family about four years ago. and whose acquaintance with the woman grew into an unholy intimacy that led first to bigamy and. then to wife murder in both of which they are believed to be accessories. Graham's life has become well known through the publication of the details of the sensational events of the past few weeks, and although the reputation of the Molloy household for some years past has not been free from suspicions that are being daily confirmed by the testimony adduced at the preliminary examination of the twl women, yet the public will hardly be prepared for the startling revelations contained in a statement which he has written in the dreary confir.es of his steel cell since his abandonment to hii fate by the wo n-n who would ?ave their reputations, an-l possibly their lives at his i x jf use. Tili. is treating upon matters about which a question of veracity might auf pest itf el?, he enters into details with a miuutoiieis that leaves no room for doubt giving dates, cities, hotels, numbers of rooms, etc., m which his liaisons with the women were had. and all with a frankness tbat challenges investigation and disarms denial. Ihe narrative commences with his introduction into the Molloy family after his discharge from the Indiana Penitentiary in 1331, and ends 'vith his arrest in this city for bigamy on J.tuuary 29, lSSß. In no place does he touch u; on either the charge of bigamy or murder. voiding them scrupulously and confining hi nself to an unveiling of hypocrisy by an ex nose of the adulterous relations tbat existv - between himself and Mrs. Molloy and her foster danghte, Cora E. Lee. His reasons for tuia are given in the opening paragraph, as follows:. ' TothkPi bi.ic In putting forth the following statement I make no pretensions of being actuated by that high aud holy impubse a desire to improve society or raise the tone of public moral'. Having been adjured by Mrs. Emma Molloy acd Mrs. Cora K. Granam to "tell the truth and nothing but the truth" in this matter, and these ladies having ventilated their opinions of the writer with a freedom that is charming (?) to contemplate and tdiown a familiarity with adjectives that would have delighted Lin 3 ley Murray, I have concluded, as an addenda to their adjuration, to 'tell the whole truth. He then reproached his second wife, Cora, for her desertion in his extremety, and her apparent determination to save herself and allew him to be sacrificed, and adds: Whether Mrs. Graham will really have so very much cause for congratulation is a question about which there may be two opinion. When the reader has reached the conclusion of this o'er true tale he or .he may conclude that, however guilty 1 n:ay be, Cora Graham and Emma Molloy are in i'o position to join in the general chorus against mr. I must say that if there toad been no Emma Molloy or Cora Lee there would be no Geome Graham iu the steel cage of Green CXmuty to-night. He then enters into a circumstantial detail of hia life and work after going with Mrs. Molloy to Chicago, where he was engaged with the publishers of the "Morning and Day of Keform," to which Mrs. M. was a "valued contributor"' and associate editor. This was in the early part of 1&Ü, in April, and about the time Mrs. Molloy was divorced from her husband. Shortly after this he engaged Mrs. Molloy to go to Port Wayne to use her powers of persuasion upon his wife, Sarah Graham, to induce her to live with him again. Mrs. Graham was obdurate and refused to leave her father, and in connection with his reference to this visit of Mrs. Molloy, Graham writes: The women who were calculated to have suca a dlie cöect upon each other's lives then met for the first time. It was then that he went with the D. C. Cook publishing house on it3 removal to Elgin. In July he went to Fort Wayne and brought his wife and two boys to Elgin, and in the following November Mrs. Molloy was induced to make her home in Elgin. Here they were thrown together a great deal and Graham records in a matter-of-fact way: Vi e had grown very friendly, and though nothing improper had trancpired between us up to this time she frequently sat in my lap and kissed me. Graham's smoldering love for Mrs. M. burst into a name November 17, and he unbosomed himself. She protested mildly, but on the 17th of December at her own house in Elgin the first instance of criminal intimacy between the two occurred. After that the freater portion of his evenings were spent at Irs. Molloy's house when she was not away on evangelical work, and the repetition of the o flense was frequent, the narrative in' such instances particularizing as to date and place. Cora Lee. the adopted daughter, was an inmate of the house at the time, and Graham asserts, that on Christmas afternoon, 1332, Mrs. Molloy in a confidential mood Told Cora of the intimacy between myself and her, and also between herself and Rev. J. Si Talbot t. who was then deceased, but who in life had been a very prominent member of the L O. G. T. in Indiana, and who died at her home in Elkhart, Ind.. in 1ST6. Mr. Talbott was probably better known through Indiana, Kentucky and the Last than any other temperance orator of his day. Her open intimacy at that time came near separating Mr. and Mrs. Molloy. but neither party was wllliug to give up the son Frank. He adds that on Jan. 1 Mrs. Molloy left for Jlithmond, Ind., to hold a series of revival meetings, and In this connection says: She never admitted that she really loved me until on this Richmond trip, when one morning 1 reivcd a letter from her which tairly electrified me. be bad copied the most passionate poems from Ella Wheeler's Toema of Passion,' and oent them to me as her letter. I intended to fortify all doubtful position in this statement with copious extracts from her letters, but on the night of the day on which the body of Sarah Graham was found on the Molloy farm Mrs. Cora (Lee) Grabam burnt the mottt of my letters an tecumlation of vears of correspondence. tlilsheUid not get all, as I had some with me in the jail, to which I can occasionally refer. On the 4th day of January, 1533, at the Molloy residence in Elgin, he writes that the first Instance of criminal intimacy occurred between himself and the girl, Cora Lee, and from that time until his unlawful marriage with her last July hia lordly attendance was about equally divided between the two women. Tbfa was all going on while Graham's own family were living at Elgin, and a knowledge of it coming ft hia wiloa tu made
trouble, which finally resulted in her return to her father in Indiana. On March 3, 1883, the record reads: Cora became enciente, and on May 21 an abortion was produced by a Dr. D. E. B ,of Elgin. Twice afterward he writes that this perplexing state of affairs came to paas in the Molloy household, relielf being attained by the same methods. In each instance the dates of the performance of the operation are given, and the initials and place of location of the physicians. Of course the skeptical will denounce Graham for this unfolding of an uninviting tale, and some of them will scout his declarations. To satisfy these he has given frequent dates of assignations had Trith both women at hotels in Chicago, Kansas City, Crestline, O. ; Independence, Mo., and other places. In each instance the name of hotel and date of register, etc., iä given as noted below. At Olive nouse, Crestline. Octooer t, 181. Regla'ered as B. F. Mallory and wife. This was ju.st after Mi's.

At Union Depot Hotel, Kansas City, April 22 or 2?, 18cS4. Graham, Mrs. Molloy and Cora Lee occupied room 8. and registered as George E. Graham, wife and mother. The day following they went to Independence. Mo., and stopoed three or four days at the Laclede Hotel. At I'nion Depot Hotel in Kansas City, June 6. 18M, George Graham and Mrs. Molloy occupied room 6 or 10. and remained all night. At Breevort House, Chicago, July 16. 1S51, Graham and Cora Lee occupied same room. At Union Depot Hotel, Kansas City, May 1, BS3, Graham and Mrs. Molloy occupied room 7. At Morgan House, Kansas City, May 17, lHTs Graham and Cora Lee occupied the same room and registered as George E. Graham and wife. When Mrs. Molloy removed to Washington, Kas.. in 1S31, and assumed the publication of the Morning and Day of lieform, Grabam accompanied her and acted as business mansger while she held revivals and conducted tenjperance campaigns. The foregoing is an imperfect skeleton of the sensational disclosure, with regard to which the author says in one place: I am perfectly well aware that much that is said here will &eem improbable, and yet on oa'h, point blank I do not believe Cora or Mrs. Molloy will deny my Etatemen. He refers to certain persons who possess a knowledge of some of the facts recited, among them being a Mrs. Lina T. Peake, of Laporte, Ind., and Mrs. Martha Wessner, of Washington, Kan. He concludes as follows 2 It may be true, as Solomon says, that the "words ot woman are as sweet as hone) and smooth as oil, but her end is bitter as wormwood and sharp as a two-edged sword." I have the consolation, small though it bo, of knowing that though my bark goes down amid the turbid waters of illicit love, the tdiores of time. are covered with jn&t such wrecks. Geop.gk E. Grahvm.

IMPORTANT FACTS Concerning the Church Membership of Blaine's Two Unmarried Daughters. Atgi'sta, Me.. March 18. The Kennebec Journal (inspired) says: We have recently received many inquiries from distant parts of the country 83 to whether the two unmarried daughters of Mr. Blaine had become or were about to become members of the Catholic Church. These inquirers had seen such a report in the public press, but uniformly in papers known to be hostile to Mr. Blaine. The information, therefore, seemed to be given with the view of injuring Mr. Blaine with Protestant voters, just as Kev. Mr. Burchard's extraordinary assault on the Catholic Church had been used to injure Mr. Blaine with Catholic voters. We do not expect that anything we could say will stop the inventors of falsehoods. But it is proper to state that the story referred to has not the slightest foundation. The young ladies were baptised in the Congregational Church of this city, of which church Mr. and Mrs. Blaine have been members for thirty years, and have never formed any other church connection. Miss Margaret Blaine, concerning whom the inquiries are more especially addressed, is at this very time one of the most constant attendants upon the worship of the Congregational Church. It is rather humiliating to make public such statements concerning matters which belong exclusively to private life, but it seems necessary to correct stories known to be false by those who first put them in circulation. We have thought that a statement from the, city of Mr. Blaine's residence, where all his children were born and reared, would be accepted as authoritative by all who really want to know the truth. Hence, though not without reluctance, we publish the? facts. General Fitz John Porter. New York, March It). General Porter was to-day shown the following fiom the Evening Telegram of March 17: "WASiuxciToy, March 17. General Dent, who General Grant's brother-in-law, while speaking upon the Kitz John Porter case, said that he was at the White House when Porter called and asked for a second cor-t martial. 'I never heard a man so positive In h; convictions. He said he had carefully gone r the brief, and was satisfied that the finding f the court were correct. He turned to Gene: Porter and in a tone of surprise said: 'General i ter, you should never want to have this ease ii . .ened. You hould never ask for another trial There is too much evidence against you. Why, I find evidence enough to have warranted your conviction and execution. You got off remarkably easy. Had I been a member of that court, considering the testimony aa it appears, I should bave been compelled to vote to order yon shot.' I do not know what reasons General Grant had to change his mind. That has always been a mystery to me." General Porter at once stated that the above was an error throughout; that he never saw General Grant at the White House; that be never called there or saw General Grtnt during his Presidential term; that General Grant never expressed such opinions in his hearing; that, on the contrary, be favored the reopening of the case by President Johnson, and would have issued the order for that purpose, with the President's approval, if ne bad not received a letter from General Pope, putting a different version on the matter; that on Thursday, September 12, lSb7, be told General Porter to return to his home in New York, and on Tuesday next he should have the order convening the court at West Point The cause of the above change of view, and of bis subsequent change in favor of General Porter, is given in his letter of November 23, 1SS3, now published. Ho who can't understand that letter and others on the same subject must be stupid indeed." The Molloy-L.ee Tilal. Springfieid, Mo., March 21. In the Molloy-Lee trial yesterday the time was principally taken up with the cross-examination of Peter Hawkins (colored.) He proved unable to stand the rigid test without some contradiction.

A FIGHT FOR LIFE.
Desperate KesUtance of a Murderer Against Hia Pursuers. Oakland, Neb., March 21, At 10 o'clock yesterday morning, Henry A. Stedman, a farmer, residing three miles from here, quarreled with one of his men. Ed Johnson, and was ahot and killed. Johnson had been paid and discharged, when he turned and fired without provocation.. Johnson then jumped upon a horse and fled. The authorities at Lyons were aroused, and Constable F. F. Parker organized a mounted posse, which started in pursuit. Johnson had a good start, but he traveled leisurely and was overtaken twelve miles from the scene of the shooting. He ran into a barn on the farm of Charles Johnson, aud strongly intrenched himself. The chinks between the boards afforded him excellent loop holes for the use of his weapons, which consisted of a rifle and a revolver. The barn was surrounded by the constable and his men, and a f usilade of shots was begun. The murderer returned almost shot for shot. In a rash moment he exposed himself and was struck in the leg, but he continued to tire and to keep his pursuers at bay. Finding their'weapons of too light caliber a detachment was sent for Winchesters as well as reinforcements, and ten men fully equipped were sent from Oakland by the Sheriff, with instructions to bring Johnson in dead or alive. In the mean time Charles Johnson, the farmer, ventured too near the barn and was shot down. He will probably, die. Shortly afterward Constable Parker's horse was shot from under him, and another bullet ripped opeu bis coat sleeve. The re-enforcements arrived, and they were distributed with a view of preventing Johnson from escaping in the darkness. In the barn with him were ten horses, which m3dly Screamed and plunged in their fright. It i3 believed that several of them have been wounded or billed. Johnson has not yet been driven from his stronghold, but when brought out he will undoubtedly be hanged. Mr. Stedman was a prominent young Nebraska farmer of considerable wealth. He owned several creameries and had a family. Firing ceased for awhile, but shortly after 8 o'clock it was renewed, and continued.! ln the midst of it Peter Johnson, a brother of Charles Johnson, was mortally wounded. A rush for th.a barn was made, but the man behind tho barricade drove all back with well directed shots, some of which wounded the horses At 10 o'clock last night he was holding the barn and shouting derisively at his pursuers. Sheriff Skinner, of JJurfc County, where the 6hooting occurred, has arrived at Oakland, and with another band of men has started for the scene, which is now described as a veritable battle. This morning they opened fire again on the barn and the desperado responded. He shot through one mans hat, through another's coat and so on but wounded no one, as they exercised great caution. The desperado guarded every side of the barn and no one dared to approach it to set tire to it as it had been determined to do. This afternoon, he fired several shots through the farm dwelling house where several men were stationed, but hit no one. A special train has been ordered to carry fifty armed men from Tekaraal to the scene of the siege. At last accounts (5 o'clock this afternoon) the desperado still holds the fort. It has been decided to set fire to the barn in some way at the first opportunity To-night a bright fire is seen southwest of Oakland in the direction of the barn eight miles distant, and the report reached here is that the bam has been set on fire. The Mexican murderer has killed three men and had wounded several others and has shot several horses. The barn, which is now burning was, with its contents, valued at $6,000, and belonged toC. P. Johnson, one of the killed. Hood's Sarsapanlla is made only by C. I. Hood it Co., Apothecaries, Lowell, Mss. It is prepared with the greatest skill and care, under the direction of the men who originated it Hence Hood's Sarsaparilla may be depended upon as strictly pure, honest and reliable. Shocking Depravity. Toledo, O., March 21. A horrible case of incest was brought to the attention of the police yesterday, which resulted in the arrest of three parties concerned. Several days ago a woman who gave the name of Dunn called on Mrs. Dr. Eigholz, a midwife, and said she wanted an operation performed on her daughter. When questioned the woman said her daughter was but fourteen years of age and was enceinte by a brother who is nineteen. An engagement was made with the midwife, and in the meantime the police were informed of the woman's story. Yesterday the mother and daughter were arrested at the office of the midwife, and later the son was placed in custody. Then the police learned that the woman's name was not Dunn, but that she was Mrs. Calvin 11. Vaughan, wife of a respectable cooper, emfdoved at the St. Clair Mills. The daughter Minnie) is a very beautiful girl, well formed and quite mature for her age, which ii but fourteen. The son, and e alleged author of all the trouble, is WVl II. Vaughan, a fine looking young man, who has always borne a good reputation. The three prisoners now deny the story and make state meats of an entirely different character from those made to the midwife.

Statements have recently appeared In a number cf papers thdt the Hendricks Monument Fund is losing interest in the State, and that the managers are meeting with but little encouragement. As giving an idea of the utter want of foundation for the report, it may be said that nearly $3,000 has been paid in from small contributions in a great many towns all over the country; but the gentlemen who are canvassing Indiana and the cities of other States have not yet reported, and will not until April l.in accordance with their instructions. More than $10.000 is already known to have been subscribed $5,000 of which comes from this county. Captain Madden has collected about $1,000 from the Irish societies, and in Allen County more than $1,000 has been subscribed. The collections in the various counties gar to the Treasurer of the fund in those counties, and have not yet been reported to the General Treasurer. Under the Wheels. Kisdeb, 111., March 21.
