All the thunder In the world could not turn milk sour, but certain conditions are developed when thunder showers are preva I lent, which, in turn, act injuriously on milk." The chemists of the AEricultural Dnnnrt ment have been giving their attention to analyses of the com position of certain widely advertised "breakfast foods," for which there seems to be a popular and crow What Breakfast Foods Are Made Of. ing craze just at present. Samples were obtained of all the advertised brands and from ten to twenty analyses made of each.

The result oi tne examinations is that the official report, which will be Issued before long, will show that the makers of these preparations have been so enterprising In advertising their wares as to forget to stick closely to facts. The chemical analyses proved, however, that there is practically no adulteration of these foods. "There is more variation in prices," says the report, "than in composition, and there is no discoverable relation between quality and prices. Some articles are four or five times the cost of others of the same class and apparently of the same merit. The oatmeal sold in bulk is practically the same In composition, and, so far as can be judged by personal taste, in quality and flavor, as that sold in packages for several times the price.

The chief advantages of package goods is that the manufacturer is made directly responsible to tho consumer. The claims made for quick cooking are generally fallacious." If the experiments now being conducted by the Agricultural Department prove wholly successful there will be no oecusion for dairymen sustaining large losses through the souring of their Artificially Preserved Milk. milk supplies in the future. The department experts have discovered a way of preserving milk by pressure. Tne samples of milk used in the tests were inclosed in collapsible tin tubes and placed in steel cylinders.

Tho space surrounding the tubes was filled with water. The cylinders were fitted with pistons to which hydraulic pressure was applied. Several hundred samples of milk were treated In this mauner and the results were very satisfactory. Milk kept at a temperature of about 80 degrees was subjected to this process and remained perfectly sweet for fifteen days. With the temperature of the milk raised to 140 and even 170 degrees pressures of live and twenty tons gave better results than when the temperature was lower.

The practical application ot pressure in the shipment or milk is considered a possibility by the Agricultural Department and experiments along this lice are now being made. Ex Senator J. C. S. Blackburn, Colonel Phil Thompson and other prominent Kentucky Goebel men now in this city have Hard Blow for Goebel.

been thrown into a state of consternation by the announcement made by State Senator .1. C. Brownson of Kentucky that under no circumstances would he support Goebel. Brownson makes his announcement In an open letter to ex Senator Blackburn. in which he suggests "that self respect, party pride and personal honor demand that a loyal, upright, honest Democrat put in Goehel's place." fie states that he had intended to vote and speak for Goebr until the latter's perfidy was exposed by rs from ex Senator John G.

Carlisle and August Bel mom, in which they show that Goebel had been in league with them and against the silver Democracy during the last big contests in Kentucky. As Senator Mrownson has for years been Joe Blackburn's close personal and political friend and made the groat light for him in his memorable battle for ihe United States Senatorship in lSHd. his attack on Goebel Is regarded as the most serious blow that the candidate for Governor of Kentueky on the Democratic ticket has yet sustained. Brownson, alter urging that Goebel's name be withdrawn, says: "Yet if you, as the recognized leader of Democracy in the state, and William J. Bryan, as the leader thereof in the nation, to both of whom and especially to you.

my loyalty is attested by devotion and self sacrifice without limit, still insist that the Democratic party shall become particeps criminis to such perfidy, I. as a humble member thereof, cannot indorse such indisputable treachery and dishonesty by remaining longer with you." The withdrawal of Senator Brownson from the Goebel crowd has caused farseclng Democrats here to revise their predictions in regard to the result of the fall elections. They are now saying that the Democratic ticket will be successful in Maryland and Nebraska; that there is a fighting chance for ft in Ohio, but that ii is in serious danger and likely to be defeated in Kentucky. Everybody sympathizes with ex Senator Blackburn. Twice he fought and almost won his campaign for return to the I United States Senate, and now when the prize is so nearly within his grasp It seems almost a fatality that his party in Kentucky should be split up into bitter factions, thereby seriously endangering his chances.

The Brooklyn Club has received a portrait of the late David. M. Stone, who was for some time its president. He is well remembered as the editor of the Journal of Commerce and as an influential citizen of Brooklyn and member of the Central Congregational Church here. The portrait is the work of Mr.

J. II. Boston, a Brooklyn artist of distinction and the picture is the gift of Mr. William S. Hub bell, a nephew of the late President D.

M. Stone, and one of the secretaries of the New York Sabbath Committee. 31 Bible House, Manhattan. The excellence of the the generosity of Mr. Hubbell and the ap preciation of the Brooklyn Club are indicated by the action of the Board of Directors, on Tuesday night, Colonel William Hester, the president, in the chair.

The board unanil mously passed the following preamble and resolutions: Whereas, the club has received from William S. Hubbell, an excellent portrait of his distinguished uncle, the late David M. Stone, for some time the esteemed president of tin's body, nnd for a long while one of its most respected members, therefore. Resolved, That we tender to Mr. Hubbell our thanks for this beautiful gift, equallv significant of his affection and of his generosity that we congratulate him and the artist, Mr.

J. H. Boston, upon the striking merit of the likeness and upon the fineness of the production as a work of art. and that we accept it with the assurance that it shall be placed in the honored list of the predecessors and of the successors of the late President Stone in the office which he filled here with ndoiit ability and acceptance that should always i ciut iiiuereu. Resolved.

That a copy of the foregoing be sent to Mr. Hubbcli. with the assurance of our high consideration. At the same meeting attention was drawn to the very liberal action of Mr. Edward T.

Hunt, one of the members of the club. The action is both recited and acknowledged by the following preamble and resolutions, which were also unanimously passed. Whereas, We have been aporlsed of the restoration through the liberality of Mr. Eli ward T. Hunt of the picture, long the property of this club, entitled "A Oamn of Cards;" and Whereas.

Such restoration has been ac complished with much skill and beauty thereby greatly enhancing the value of the' production to this club; therefore. Resolved. That we heartily thank Mr Hunt for his generosity and kindness, and share with him the pleasure accomnlished by his liberality. This pleasure Is tho greater because the picture under the guise of "A Game of Cards" is an historically valuable collection of portraits of men whose connection with our club and with Brooklyn was honorable to both, and whose friendship and counsel are cherished by many of our present members, with a strong sense of af rection and or value. Resolved, That a copy of this expression bo sent to Mr.

Hunt by our secretary, with the renewed thanks of our oritanizatlon to him. The plcturewis one of the most prized col lections of portraits In the city. The game of cards is merely a device of arranging, as if they were players or lookers on, the persons epresented in convenient and natural posi tions for portraiture. Those represented as players are William Kent, Alexis Bragg, Charles Condit and Grenville T. Jenks.

On he wall is a portrait of Samuel McLean. The steward of the club at the time is represented as winding the clock which marks a midnight hour of interesting fellowship. Among those sitting or standing as lookers on are Furman Hunt, Matthew Wilson, the artist who paint ed the picture; Thomas H. Bunting, Stevens Babeock, Henry R. Pierson and William C.

Trull. Of this list nearly ail held high official positions in the club, and the only one now iving is, we believe, Mr. Trull. The por traits are excellent as likenesses and the picture is superior as a work of art. The restoration of the production has been most skillfully and sympathetically effected.

All the members of the club are delighted with the result. LESLIE'S WEEKLY.

PRICE OF TICKETS CUT. Although the excursion fleet which went down the bay yesterday in the fog was vcjy laie, an me uig steamers were hand. The repeated postponements seem have discouraged some of the owners of smaller boats, but the big steamers are well patronized. The management, in many cases, has adopted a liberal policy and the prices for tickets have been reduced. On the Richard Peck of the New Haven Line, the steamer Shinnecock, the Columbia the Long Branch route and the Grand Republic yesterday, the disappointed sightseers received tickets gootl for the next race.

This will be followed for the balance of the races and will undoubtedly help to keep the excursion fleet well patronized. THE FLATBTJSH COUNCIL.

TO GO TO AFRICA. Brooklyn Girl, Married Yesterday, Will Accompany Her Husband to His Congo Station. un uuue Louisa wood, who is well known, in local missionary work, was married yesterday afternoon in the Classon Avenue Presbyterian Church, to the Rev. Dr. DeWltt Tkfflrw.

bnyder. who for five years has been in charge of a Presbyterian mission in Luebo, Congo Free State, Africa. The couple will spend their honeymoon in Africa, and will sail next month for Europe, en route to the groom's missionary station. Although simplicity marked every detail of the ceremony a ji 1 weumug was somewhat out of the ordi nary. The bride wore a gown of old gold poplin, trimmed with violet velvet and lace.

The lace was very beautiful. It was made by nuns on ine ieie or wight and was a gift of the groom. There were no bridesmaids or maids hpnor. Sir Arthur Farquhar of London, England, was the best man. Miss Wood entered the church on the arm of her uncle James Hardenburg.

The decorations of the altar consisted of palms and chrysanthemums A pretty feature of the ceremony wau the presence of several hundred children from the Wyckoff Heights Mission, a branch of the Classon Avenue Church, where Miss Wood had been a teacher. After the ceremony had been performed and as the newly married couple' passed down the aisle the children scattered flowere before them. Tho weddirfg ceremony was performed F' Schaufller, superintendent of the Presbyterian Church city missions He was assisted by the Rev. Dr. Burrell, the pastor of the church.

The ushera were Wood, P. Moffatt, Conrad Keyes and Dr. k' Black of the Homeopathic Hospital. Dr. Snyder is a medical missionary.

Seven years ago he began work in Tampa, Fla. and was sent to Africa by the Southern Mission Board, and placed in charee of tho cn mission. The mission is about one thousand miles from the coast arnd on a branch of the Congo River. The doctor returned to this country in June. He is having a boat built In Richmond.

tc be used In transporting mail and provisions to the mission, in Luebo Dr. Snyder has several schools and a church, with a native membership of about two hun' dred and fifty. He has acquired some fame by his translations of the Bible into the native languages. The mission is in the center of a territory which was formerly occupied by cannibal tribes. The bride is equally fitted for the work in which she will assist her husband.

She has been engaged in missionary work for about ten years, and was recently granted a diploma aE a trained nurse by the trustees of tho Homeopathic Hospital, where in one year, by her proficiency, she overcame the rule that calls for a three years' course. The father of the bride died about two years ago. Ho was a prominent business man in Brooklyn tor thirty years. VAIL from by Lieutenant Governor "Woodruff Is Hard at Work and Gum Shoes Are Being Delivered in Large Quantities at Headquarters His Appeal to Voters Said to Have Been Tampered With Patronage Expected to Bring the Twenty third Ward Into Line. The Brooklyn public is as deeply interested in Timothy L.

Woodruff's vice presidential speak easy gum ahoe campaign as it Is in the Columbia Shamrock yacht races. For this Teason, the arrangements made by the writer to report the progress of the Lieutenant Governor's campaign by wireless telegraph bulletins sent from Republican headquarters will doubtless meet with popular approval. 7 A.

At this point the wireless telegraph has ceased to work. While repairs are being made an opportunity Is offered to inform my readers of a contemptiblo trick played upon Mr. Woodruff presumably by a Democrat, It will be remembered by those who have watched the speak easy campaign closely that a few days ago Mr.

Woodruff issued an ppeal to 55,000 enrolled Republicans, Implor ing them to vote for the one year old Repub lican Neu by way of indorsing President Mc Klnley's candidacy for renomination and his expansion policy. In this fervid type written appeal Mr. Woodruff submitted several questions which he suggested should be asked in dependent voters. Among these questions were the following: 'Ask what consideration the borough of Brooklyn has received at the hands of the Democratic administration of the greater ity?" "Ask them to point out a single park or boulevard improvement?" "Ask what has been done to provide sum ent school accommodations for our rapidly increasing population? It is said tnat Mr. Woodruff really wrote Don't Ask" as a prefix to all of these ques ons; that these words were cut out of the opy of the appeal by a Democratic composi tor.

This statement, may or may not be true yet that it is truthful seems plausible, for the questions attributed to Mr. Woodruff are the very ones that machine Republicans of secretion desire to eliminate from a speak easy campaign. For the truthful answers in each case must strengthen Democratic claims popular support. It has been suggested by certain wide awake Republicans that Mr. Woodruff should write nother circular letter appealing to voters to pay no heed to the first appeal.

For Democrats have answered Mr. Wood ruff's alleged questions by declaring that the Democratic administration of New York levied Brooklyn taxes in 1S98, and 'that the tax rate this year is lower than it has been in years. That Deputy Commissioner Walton has lighted all the small parks, various boulevards and avenues, asphalted streets and streets long neglected by Republican administrations; that largely through his efforts there was a $300,000 bond issue for the benefit of the Museum of Arts and Sciences. And to the query, "What has been done to provide sufficient school accommodations for rapidly increasing population?" the following conclusive answers are made: During the entire two years preceding consolidation (1S96 1897) the Republican administration of the City of Brooklyn authorized issue of bonds, for the purchase of sites construction of new school buildings, to amount of $566,000. During the year 1893 the Democratic administration of the City of New York has authorized, for the purchase of sites and construction of new school, buildings in tiie Bor ough of Brooklyn, bonds to the amount of of which nearly ijiii.uoo.ooo have already been issued.

In the last two years preceding consolidation the Republican administration of the of Brooklyn appropriated for the rr.ainte nanee of the school system in that city the following: 564. 263.00 2,735.000.00 Total $5,209,203.00 In 1898 and 183ft the Democratic administration of New York appropriated for the maintenance of schools in the Borough of Brooklyn the following: 1SH 5 Total J.0S Shortly before 12 o'clock the wireless tele egraph began to work again and the following bulletins were received: 12:15 Another truck loaded with gum shoes has backed up in front of the Remsen street entrance to headquarters.

CHIEF WILEY'S STATEMENT. Economic Disposal of Dead Animals. What Breakfast Foods Are Made Of. Eagle Bureau. 608 Fourteenth Street.

Washington, October 11 For the past week a strong odor of decaying animal matter has assailed the nostrils of persons passing the fine building on lower Fourteenth street, occupied as a chemical laboratory for the Department of Agriculture. By following up the scent to day it was found to proceed from one oi the ground floor rooms of the building, where halt a dozen aproned chemists were engaged in dissecting the carcass of a roan horse, which a few weeks ago did service as an important part in a wagon express outfit. The animal was pretty generally dismembered, steaks having been cut from both flanks and various portions of flesh from the legs and sides removed, while a string of freshly stuffed sausage links suspended on a nail in the wall showed that some of the meat had been prepared after the style of oeei sausage. Inquiry of Dr. Wiley, the chief chemist of the Department of Agriculture, developed the fact that the government experts are conducting a series of interesting experiments for the purpose of determining just what uses the horse can be made to serve as human food.

The department does not intend to start a propaganda in favor of the consumption of American horse meat, a'nd so far as is known no such food Is offered for sale in this country; yet there has always been more or less suspicion as to the origin of certain prepared meats which we import from abroad in large quantities every year. It is to make our Inspectors thoroughly familiar with the appearance and taste of the llesh of this animal that the present experiments are being undertaken, so that when horse beef is shipped here in the guise of beef the deception may be readily discovered. To be sure, there are several large abattoirs in the United States where horses are slaughtered for food, but it is stated at all of these establishments that their entire product goes to European countries. The Agricultural Department has an inspector at each of these places who sees that no horses suffering from any disease are allowed to be killed. Only sound and healthy animals are slaughtered, and when the meat is packed for shipment each box and barrel is labeled horse flesh, so that the purchasers will know exactly what they are buying.

In explaining his work to the Eagle correspondent to day Dr. Wiley said: "It has beeen contended that it is impossible to distinguish by chemical, microscopic or other means the difference between finely boiled or ground horse ilesh and beef meat. In order to satisfy ourselves on this point we directed the local health authorities to secure or us a horse that had died from natural causes. We got the animal and are now in the midst of our experiments. Samples have been taken from different parts of the body, corresponding with certain cuts usually selected by butchers.

We are putting tbem through chemical and microscopic processes and noting tho changes from time to time and comparing them with the genuine beef. We have canned certain portions in the same manner followed at the big canning establishments and have also made sausages out of the portions that are customarily employed for this purpose. In fact, we have prepared the carcass of the horse in everv shape that a beef is put up. We hope to become so thoroughly familiar with the appearance of this horse meat In its different forms as to be able to identify it when pro pared by others and to distribute the information so thoroughly that anyone can tell the difference as well as we. In the groat quantity of sausages and foreign meats "that we import every year it is quite probable that there is muoh horse flesh.

While we have not yet gone far enougn into the matter to make any positive statements we absolutely know cnat we can tell Iresh horse ilesh from fresh beef. The difference is plainly detected both cnemicauy and microscopically. Whether we will be able to distinguish the difference after cooking and other treatment remains to be seen. "The popular prejudice against horse flesh as food," continued Dr. Wiley, "is probably not well rounded.

Horse Meat there is no reason to Not Objectionable bel'eve that it is not quite as nutritious as iu. flesh Thig avcr. sion exists, however. and it is only proper that it should be sold under its own name and not in the guise of some other nesh food. So far as I am con corned I have no prejudice against horse steaks and roasts, if well prepared.

I have doubt whatever that it figures quite extensively on the bills of fare in the cheap Paris restaurants, though it is not known by the name of horse. I went to several Paris restaurants of the cheaper kind for the express purpose of examining their meats. At one place I was served with soup, vegetables, roast and a pint of wine, for which I paid one fnnc 20 cents. Naturally this must have been the cheapest food they could purchase, and, while the roast was quite palatable, I often had a suspicion that I was dining off the remains of some old charger. But the result was all the same whether it was prime beef or old horse, for the French have way of preparing food that Is unequaled.

I verily believe a Paris chef could take a pint sawdust and convert it into as fine a pudding as was ever eaten. There is a French law prohibiting the sale of horse flesh under other names, but this is constantly violated. read an account not long ago of a Paris restaurant keeper who was arrested on a charge selling horse meat without telling his customers what it was. When brought Into court he claimed that he did make known nature of his goods and explained that each package was marked M. H.

On being asked what that meant the butcher replied: 'Why, that means melange hippique mixed The French and Greek combination quite unique. Another subject of some interest that Dr. Wiley is pursuing Is in connection with the means which the va rious cities of the United States and foreign countries have adopted for disposing Economic Disposal of Dead Animals. dead animals found the streets and elsewhere. He has secured on this point from many European cities well as from the leading municipalities in country.

All cats, dogs, horses and other animals that end their lives in the streets are abandoned there find their way either crematories or to the factories of fertilizer soap establishments. "Economically the method of disposing of an animal," said Wiley, "is, first, to throw the carcass into rending vat and heat it with steam until it readily separates, when the oil is removed for manufacturing purposes. The residue is dried burned and becomes available for fertilizing use. If the city authorities would the dead animals picked up about the streets In this way they would more than pay their destruction and even become a source of revenue instead of expense. One the objections against the use of the parts these animals as fertilizers and in the manufacture of soap is the liability of a diseased body being submitted to the treatment Horses which die of lumpy jaw.

glanders and tuberculosis, nil of which are germ diseases unfit for conversion into fertilizer If succumbing to hog cholera were manufactured into fertilizing material and spread a field the chances are that the old ger'm i the disease would infect other animals as as a year nfterwnrd. Tho same thing is in regard to cows nnd horses dying from lumpy jaw or tuberculosis. These germs are persistent and frequently escape dp struction when the bodv is burned Most of dead animals of this country are sent rn and fertilizing factories, though the crematory process of disposing of such refuse generally used abroad.

PRESENT OUT OF OCTOBER PAY. Two Thousand Five Hundred Association Members to Contribute $1 Each. Checks to Be Heady Soon. State Senator John F. Ahearn is to the recipient of a valuable gift from the members of the Class Teachers' Association of Brooklyn as a token of their appreciation of his efforts in their behalf.

There are about 2,500 members of ttiiis association, and each isex pected to give an average of $1 each. This question formed one of the features of the regular meeting of the Class TeachersAAs soclation yesterday afternoon in the assembly room of School corner or Third avenue and State street. There were about 300 members present when President Wamsley called the meeting to order. The first business was the repor of the treasurer, who showed that the receipts in dues from 2.315 memberu were the expenditures leaving a balance on hand of $1 18. as.

President Wamsley, as chairman of the executive committee, then made a report on the work accomplished by that committee since the last meeting in May His principal talk was on the salaries (mention. He said that the malting of the new schedule had been greatly hindered by the many teachers who had clamored for more pay and who bad no rieht to an advance under Ihe Ahearn law. He said the committee had secured for the grammar grades a progressive scale of increase, although it had failed In the effort for higher maximums in the primary gradew. He said the delay in Brooklyn in making up the pay rolls under the Ahearn law was due to the superintendent's department from lack of force. Mr.

Wamsley said that Secretary Brown of the School Board had passed all records and prepared the pay rolls as soon as he could and had sent to the Central Board of Education about two thir li; of the rolls for September. These were under way aad tho checks would be ready within a few days. He said the September checks would be mi ihe basis of the schedule adopted on July 25, but that the additional pay from April 25 to June 30, as provided for by ihe Ahearn law would bo paid amy to most' wno were affected by the minimum requirement provisions if that law. "Don't anticipate unexpected things." continued Mr. Wamsley, "for I assure you that you are not.

going lo receive for the period between April 25 tiie end of June mora than the law allows. We going to try to see that the teachers in Urcoklvn are mud on the same basis as those in Manhattan. Mr. Wainsiey said that the back pay question was In the hands of tne llruokiyn Teachers' Association, and that checks for that pay would probably be ready by Friday. "The clerks in the secretary's office are working long hours overtime in making out these rolls, and the Inst will be sf nt.

over on Thursday. "But," continued Mr. "the checks should not. be looked for until the l.Sth. "We owe considerable credit to Senator Ahearn." said Mr.

Wamsley. "The Class Teachers' Association should take some action In recognition of his service. I propose that on the payment ot our Ociober cheeks in November thai each teacher subscribe something substantial toward a gift that will be fitting to such a r.aa." Mr. Wamsley suggested a solid silver service or something elBO of a practical character. On motion the executive committee was empowered to collect subscriptions for a suitable gift to Senator Ahearn, to make, the selection and arrangements for its presentation.

This brought out a counter proposition that the funds in the treasury be used, which was met from the other side nf the room by "a dollar nut of the new salary schedule is worth more than one taken from' tiie old. I want every llrooklyn teacher to give nt least a dollar, for none of them will receive less than sixty because of Senator Ahearn." This was greeted with applause and the movement for the "solid silver service or other practical gift" to Senator Ahearn was put under way and the meeting adjourned. FOR ME. WOODKUFF. Complaint From an Eleventh District Voter.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Having a political grievance and falling Uy obtain justice in rny own party, the Republican. I appeal to you, believing you will shoflr up political injustice wherever it may be found. Since Livuter.ant Governor Woodruff so fond of asking questions through your columns, I wish to ask him a few: Why is be so frantic to beat the Democratic party this year, when in 1 807 he did all he could to elect Tammany's Mayor by running Tracy as a dummy? Jf he so loved Tammany in 1S07, have not the independents got a right to love Tammany in 1S99? I think so. Why does Mr. Woodruff allow in his Assembly distri the trampling upon the less favored Republicans east of Van ilerhtlt who fnr fl fl i vern hai rnt often to defeat) some brown stone Republican.

This year is no exception. Both candidates for assemblyman and alderman are from aristocratic surroundings, and both will probably be defeated, because the great thinking vote, whom no man can fathom, will see at once tiie injustice of trying to build up i. i this free country an aristocracy only the rich to hold office and will vote accordingly. The aldermanie candidate, Mr. Williams, by his own admission, is a newcomer in the ward about two years and yet he has been selected over Republicans of fifteen and twenty years' standing tti run.

Mr. McKeever is as good as elected right now. If the Republican party wants to win the alderman and save the assemblyman they had better with dra.v Mr. Williams, for he is sun to be beat in his own district, the Eleventh Assembly under his very eyes. STERLING WORTH.
