ANDREW L. KIDSTON.
THE vKsTRY OF TRINITY CHURCH.
The vestry of Trinity church Is again
called upon to part with another valued
associate. Never before, in the history of
| the parish, have three of it's vestry depart
| ed this life within ton months after their
election. Mr.. Andrew L. Kidston, the
eldest of the three, past away Monday,
January Goth Inst, in the eighty seventh
year of his age. He was bsptiz d by the
| Rev. Bella Hubbard. D. D the first rector
| of the parish, and he witnessed the growth
| of the Protestsnt Episcopal church In this
city from its small beginning until 1t has
reached its present large Dimensions.
While interested in the church at large he
was particularly devoted to the parish OF
which he had been q life long member.
He was q vestryman for forty-three years
and was frequently elected delegate tc
the convention of the diocese, and once was
sent by the diocese as q lay member of tn.
deputstion from Connecticut to the genera
convention of the church.
But Mr.. Ktdston was never engaged II
the stormier pursuits of life. His day
were spent in tranquil pursuits and In tn
enjoyment of the society of his friends
AS his years increased he found himsel
more and more disposed to assist not onl,
worthy poor, but the work and institution
of the church in this city and state. Trim
ity church will long remember his benefac
ton in the gift of the bells which ring on
from its tower calling people to the hous
Of God. His kindliness and simplicity o
character will be remembered by man,
who will give no public uttersnce of thei
appreciation, and they will read with eilen
satisfaction this testimony of the vestry t
the worth of its departed member.

NEWTON, Kan, Oct 11-Rapidly
passing away are the marks Of the great
thoroughfares that once crossed the
plains-the Santa Fe emigrant trail
from east TO west and the Chisholm cat
tie trail from central Kansas shipping
stations to the boundless ranch lands Of
Texas They We're the most historic TEA
lures Of the west in a way, and few in
deed were the early immigrants Of the
Mississippi valley to whom one or both
We're not familiar. They were the paths
over which many a weary step was TAX
en- and beside which thousands from
first to last found a resting place The
wealth of empires was transported along
their course, and their fame became
worldwide.
Here and there along the plains on
the divide between the Arkansas and
Smoky Hill rivers may yet be seen
traces of the Santa Fe trail, which,
starting from Westport (now Kansas
City, took its stretching way for nearly
a thousand miles across the prairie
These reminders are on the hillsides
where the trail climbed some knoll and
rains washed down the tracks made by
the umbering prairie schooners or emf
grant wagons until huge burrows were
cut. never to be erased until after years of
thorough tillage. As one track was cut
out in this way the wagons turned aside
and broke another until there was a Sc
ries Of these seams, making it appear
that many wagons had driven abreast.
Such was not the case. The emigrant
trains which took their way toward the
setting sun followed in single file. Tt
was not unusual for 500 wagons to COM
pose one of these trains and a pictur-
esque sight they made, with their attend
ant outriders, their OK teams, their bur-
den of women and children and their
buiging white topped vehicles. It was
an exodus toward the Eldorado of the
new lands. Wearing was the journey,
traversing day after day the unbrol1en
sea Of sod beneath a cloudless sky and
with all the dangers of red men and saw
age beasts surrounding At night the
wagons drew up in a circle, the animals
grazed. the people surrounded camp
fires and ate the frugal meal, then slept
beneath tho canvas covers and woke to
proceed at daybreak- Indian attacks
We're frequent, and prairie fires some
times threatened an extinction Of the
party. Children We're born and mem
bers Of the party lay down to their last
sleep on tho journey It is little won
der that it became famous in western
history.
The Santa Fe trail extended south

ing Council Grove took a nearly direct

west route across Kansas. 1t became in
after years the course Of the Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe railway over a
large portion of the distance, SO that in a
manner it is preserved and perpetuated.
Crossing it at right angles in the cen
trail part Of the state was that other great
pathway-the Texas cattle trail OF
this, too, there is an occasional reni-
niscence. In Newton. Ellsworth, Abb
lene and Dodge City are rows of old
time frame buildings, with fronts bear
ing faded signs reading, Pearl, = s'Ala-
mo, = Eclipse, etc. They were the
cowboy saloons, the scenes of such deeds
Of lawlessness as gave rise to the say
ing, ssThere is no Sunday west of New
ton and no God west Of Dodge City. !"
The cattle trail reminders are trench
like depressions, mostly grass grown
now, but showing where the great herds
Of from 1900 to 5000 heads tramped
in solemn bewi1derment toward their
doom They crossed rivers, mounted
the hills and rounded up at night in
great masses Of flesh, guarded by wide
hated cowboys The trail, 400 or 500
feet wide, stretched out for 40 miles Tt
entered Kansas at Wichita, and there
was located the famous saloon which
was known from the gulf to Canada.

could miss seeing its huge sign, inscribed
on the south face.
