In the tottering tower,n which called the
pious tralles to mathis and vespers through
three hundred years, has carved upon IL
the picture Of n conquislador firing his
nrquebuse into tree, at whose foot covers
q trembling Aztec. Within this church OF
San Francisco is quaint pulpit of solid

painted In imitation of marble, which is la
beled with undoubted truth III Primer Pull
pito de Nuevo Espana- the first Christian
altar erected upon the continent, more than
hundred years before the Pilgrim fathers
landed upon our northern shores.
Stored away in recess opposite this pull
pit Is another object OF interest-an i'm
mense followed stone, about six feet in di-
ameter, half as high; the hollow foot and
half deep. II is called Ell Fuente de Maxi
catron, and is the identical font from
which the warlike Caciques of Tascala
were baptized intothe Christian faith, and
what was doubtless more to the purpose OF
the crusaders In those days Of peril--into
lrrovocable allegiance to Corte2 and his
cause. II is not merely matter Of tradition,
but Of history, that when the remnant OF
the Spanish army retreated in haste TO Tlas-
Gala, after the disastrous defeat Of the
noche triste, the Tlascalans received them
with affection, and instead Of upbraiding
Cortez for having sacrificed to his ambition
thousands OF their young men, whose loss
filled every Tlascalan home with mourning,
the senate of the uncomfortable republic,
with brave Maxicatzin at their head, proved
their sincerity by presenting themselves for
the baptism they had previously refused.
An inscription on the rude fuente thus tells
its story: Esto monumento cuya autencl-
dad conserve la tradicion fue In fuento
bautismal de los ultimos Caciques Senores
do Ia Antigua Republica de Tlascala; el
ano de 1520n
The vestments Of the early prelatcs are
carefully preserved in the sanctuary; and
gorgeous garments they are, heavy with
blazing jewels and embroidery in gold and
silver. 1t is sad to reflect that human
pomps and adornments endure, after the
dignitarlos who wore them have long been
dust. Here, too, are the bones of several
martyrs, sent from Rome couple OF cen
turtles ago, safely locked and guarded.
Another point worth visiting is the old
church OF San Estehan (St Stephen), two
miles from the city of Tlascala. II is built
upon the site of Xicotencatl's ancient
palace-the brave Caique whose devotion
to the Spaniards was rewarded by his base
murder before Texcuco. A quaint stone
font is here, made in 1891, and an old
painting representing the chieftain's bap-
tism. FANNIE b. WARD.

debt, which, with the fact that some OF his

produced dependency. Adams was taken
to Omaha from Fort Lewis, Colorado, in
October. He was of Spanish-Amerlcan de-
scent, and belonged originally to New York.
He claimed to have eighteen brothers and

yesterday morning. The officer went to
Willow Tree alley, where the Paynes lived
There William Payne was found, with gun
in hand, and big hole in the ceiling of
the front room showed that the woman's
story was probably true. Payne for some
time had been suspicious Of his wife's fidelity.
Yesterday morning be began drinking heav-
lily, and his jealousy led him into a quarrel
with the woman, during which he seized a
gun and aimed 1t at his wifes breast. She
caught the gun in time to throw the muz-
zle up as it was discharged and the contents
entered the ceiling, tearing big hole in the
plaster. Payne was arrested by the officer.

The number Of medical students from the
different colleges attending the clinics in
the surgical amphitheater has been fully
equal to the average of former years, and
