# ANOTHER COP LOSES HIS JOB
### Mayor C. H. Lane Acts on Board's Recommendation and Discharges Police Officer Downes.
Mayor Charles H. Lane yesterday addressed a letter to Patrolman Gilbert Downes informing him of his dismissal from the police department. The communication set he was acting on information submitted by the board of police commissioners, and the chief said the officer he acted on the recommendation of the trial and examining board, which had found him guilty of the charges preferred. Director of Police Jaro J. Murphy accused him of being intoxicated and also charged him with conduct unbecoming an officer, failing to file a complaint against the persons involved. The officer is also asserted that he had taken a hot today for neutrals and had also had a couple of whiskeys. He said, however, that he was not in condition and that he did not know what he was doing. The board of police commissioners, in exoneration of this finding that he had violated the force and that regulations of what officer may do, said, the breach is severe, if it is proven that he was under the influence of liquor, and found him guilty and his dismissal recommended.
Officer Downes has dismissed. The officer has received a fifteen-day layoff for conduct unbecoming an officer. Downes was appointed to the force about six months ago and was on duty throughout the regime of former Mayor C. A. Lane.

# WHY DINING CAR CHEFS PREFER K C BAKING POWDER
Those who have had cakes ruined by jarring the stove, slamming the oven door or a heavy footstep, may have wondered how the dining car chef can turn out such marvelous biscuits, hot breads and pastry when his oven is being incessantly jarred and jolted and shaken by the motion of the train.
To get pastry to raise and stay raised under these conditions, a baking powder is used that continues to give off its leavening gas—*that sustains the raise*—until the dough is perfectly set.
Dining Car Chefs have found a baking powder exactly suited to their needs in K C and if you will find it helpful to your requirements. K C is really a blend of two baking powders, one active as soon as moistened, the other needing both moisture and heat to start the generation of leavening gas. No matter what may happen while you are baking your cake, K C Baking will sustain the raise until a crust is formed and all danger of falling is past.
K C Baking Powder is pure and healthful. It is guaranteed under all pure food laws, and is guaranteed to please you. And it is sold at a sensible price—no baking powder should sell for more.
