ANCIENT CEREMONIAL.
The Coming of the Pallium-An I'm.
pressiye Church Festival to
Take Place at Santa Fe's
Cathedral.

One of the grandest ceremonies of the
Catholic church will be celebrated in
Santa Fe during the coming fall, when
the pallium will be conferred on the
Most Rev. Archbishop Chapelle. The
origin of this ancient rite can be traced
back to apostolic times. The comforting
of the pallium is second only in import
ance to the presentation of the scarlet
hat or beretta, it being the insignia OF
authority worn only by archbishops, az
the scarlet hat is the distinctive mark o
cardinals. The pallia are woven from
pure white wool shorn from lambs which
have been consecrated on st. Agnes eve
in the church which has been dedicated
to her in Rome; these vestments are
blessed on the festivals of Saints Peter anC
Paul and are placed for a night on the
high altar over the tomb of Peter, the
prince of the apostles and first Pope o.
Rome, after which they are ready for
presentation by the Pope to every newly
consecrated archbishop who wears it or
solemn church functions and with whom
it is buried. This will be the third pre-
sentation of the pallium in Santa Fe
the first being when the sanity and la
mented Archbishop Lamy was conse
Grated archbishop. The second occasion
was when the venerable and be,
loved Bishop Salpointe was ele
waited to the same dignity. Apostolic
Delegate Satolli, Cardinal Gibbons and
several other prelates are expected tc
assist at the august ceremonial. In an
| ticipation of this great event extensive
Improvements and additions are now il
progress in and around the cathedra
under the personal supervision of thu

tails of the contemplated improvements
but the many lovers of the magnificent
music of the Catholic church will bt

second to none in the southwest, will be
played for the first time on the above
occasion.
The gentlemen of the several parishes
of the city have organized an archdioce

Grand Canon Of Colorado River.

On the Santa Fe route, in northern
Arizona, 1852 miles from Kansas City, is
the town of Flagstaff. tri-weekly stage
line runs from Flagstaff to the Grand
Canon of the Colorado river. More than
a mile in depth, this is the sublimest OF
gorges-a Titan of chasms. Twenty
Yosemites might be hidden unseen below,
and Niagara would look scarcely larger
than a brook.
Don't fail to visit this first wonder OF
the world. You can "read up" about it by
asking g. T. Nicholson, G. P. & T. A., A.
T. & 8. F. R. R. Co., Topeka, Kas., to mail

describing this terra incognita. The book
is no common affair; but is entertainingly
written, beautifully illustrated and gem

women and children and will comply
with the request at once.

McFie, positively decided that such funds
should go to the schools of the district
wherein they were collected. This opin-
ion, experienced lawyers believe, bears
directly upon the apportionment of all
school moneys and should govern the dis
tribution of those arising from gaming
as well as liquor licenses.
1t is maintained by persons who
have given the subject careful study
that the controversy has grown out of a
confusion of political or county preclects
with school districts. Precincts have
nothing whatever to do with the solution
of the problem. Only school districts
are concerned.

The COmplim ent Chilled.

There is an awfully bright woman
in this town, who has a great, big,
goodna tured and fairly good looking
husband. who dotes upon her. SO far
as his personal attractions go he never
gives them Il thought. but she delights
in giving him credit for being the
most conceited mortal on the face of
the earth. The other night she took
two friends to the thea tre-a mother
and dauyhter-the former of whom
has Il great admiration for the hllS-
band in question. Business prevented
his accompanying the trio. but he pro-
posed to get to the theater in time to
escort the ladies home. The old lady
looked around the house. cndcavOring
to discover the young man. as the per-
Torrance drew toward n close, but her
search was unavailing. NO" she said
when she gave it up, she is not here
and | haven't seen Il man as good
looking as he is here, either"
This delighted the wife. and when
she reached home she told her hus-
band. when he arrived few minutes
later.
THAT was very kind he remarked.

added. Did Mrs. BIS daughter say

them from their destiny. I got into
conversation with an old fellow who
seemed to have sprung out of that
sterile soil ages ago, and asked him:

The Life of Flagman Is Hard
One.


No one knows better than IA prac-
teal rallroader that Il fagman'S lif,
is not the rosicst. and the responsible.
ity of his position only seems to dawn
upon travellers when he has neglected
his duty and loss of life has resulted
1t is his duty to look after the rcal
end of the train. and if any mishnr
occurs the fiagman is the man whC
has to answer for it, 1t is not the
most gratifying thing in the world
10 be stirred up from Il snug corner in
warm caboose OF cold night and
sent back for perhaps Il mile in the
storm to flag Il tram. Yet this is done
nightly. and not unfreuuently the flag
man has to stand anywhere from
thirty minutes to an hour and half,
unprotected until the welcome blast
from the engine calls him in.
There is II peculiar code of signals,
familiar to all fiagmen. but not under
stood by the mass of travellers. For
instance. Il freight train leaves this
city going east. and is followed by Il
second section. When the first train
reaches b. the freight conductor re-
crivcs orders to hold his train. He
doesn't know why. 1t isn't necessary.
He has the order and carries it out
He then dispatches his tiagman back
to prevent the approach of the train
following.
If it is in daylight the fiagman takes
with him Il flag for the purpose. and
by means of which warns the engineer
of the approaching train. If ut night
he carries Il lantern. and by peculiar
swing accompliSheS the same result
If the trains are running fast and
close together. and the stop order to
the first train is unexpected. the flag
man has to hustle to prevent the rear
train from crashing into the train
ahead.
Very often the trains are running
far apart. or again there may be dan
ger of passenger train OvertakinS
the freight. In such case the tiagman
may have to wait for quite while
until it approaches. If the train
ahead should receive further orders
to proceed. and the tiagman is out of
sight and hearing. the engineer gives
four long blasts on the whistle, which
is Il signal for him to return.
If the train were going west four
long and one short blasts would be
given. If up to the time that the flag
man is called in. the rear train has not
approached. he then places on the
track one or two torpcdorS. according
to the circumstances. These are eN-
ploded by the engine following. One
torpedo indicates a full stop. while
two simply mean that caution is to be
exercised. Post.
