Was st. Peter at Rome?

In the HERALD of April 5th l see
that DR.. T. HARDWOOD, of Albuq uerque,
said that Father Sherman text. Thou
are Peter the rock, and upon this rock
| will build my church." and so on,
could not be found either in the Pro-
testant or Catholic bible. The writer
of this has a Catholic bible translated
from the Latin Vulgate and also a Pro-
testant bible, in both of them it can be
found. in Matthew. chap. 10th that
Christ said, Thou art Peter and upon
this rock Twill build my church aud the
gates of hell shall not prevail against
it.
DR.. Harwood said that St. Peter was
not in Rome. That ST. Peter was in
Rome is even acknowledged by num-
Der of protestant writer's. For instance,
by Cave, who in his literary history OF
ecclesiastical writer's, writes thus, that
ST. Peter was the first bishop of Rome,
I'VE affirm boldly, with the whole multi
tude of the ancients." Much more
proof can be given about ST. Peter be-
ing in Rome, but lack of space forbids.
y visit to the Catacombs and subterra-
mean churches, some of the latter being
built in the first century, notably the
church of St. Clements, in which are
inscriptions in Greek and Latin can
verify about the first bishops and the
ceremonies of the Roman church in
fine pictures of MOSAIC on the walls OF
said church. The writer has seen this

A BRAVE MOUNTAIN CLIMBER.
A Providence Girl After Swiss Peak
Climbing Will Try MeXicO's Peaks.

Miss Annie S. Peck, of Providence,
r. T., is at the Pierson, en- route to the
City of Mexico whence she viii go to
climb the OriZaba and PopOcat9petl.
Miss Peck has successfully climbed the
Matterhorn in Switzerland, $1,000 feet
high, and on which thirteen expert
climbers have lost their lives. Miss
Peck assembled the great mountain in
August, 1895. She says the ascent OF
the MatterhOrn and other Alpine peaks
is most epjOyaole: but the Alps have
been so thoroughly explored as now to
be merely the pleasure ground or
Europe. and even remote districts are
so accessible that they have become
centers for. many summer outings
Miss Peck says that in this country 1t
is quite different. Americas great
mountains have few hotels and no pro-
fessional guides. Therefore until one
has gained some experience among the
superb cragsmen of Switzerland, 1t Is
tempting providence to risk ones neck
on the untrodden peaks of the Amerl-
can continent.
Miss Peck intends now to ascend
MeXicO's two famous peaks, having
gained the experience in Europe re-
ouisite 70 successful mountain elm b.
ING. Orizaba 800 it. higher than PO-
pocateptl and probably the highest on
the American continent. The height of
this great volcanic mountain Is over
Is, OOO it,. but il has no terrors for Miss
Peck who will make the ascent short
ly. OriZaba 10 its upper part Is very
steep, and it has long been claimed
that its summit is inaccessible. But
the claim is that Majors Reynolds al d
MAYNARD of the United States army
made the ascent in 1913. and in 1881
Paul Alfalfa is said to have reached
the tOpmost point.
Miss Peck does not know how she
will sta nd the altitude, as the Matter
horn is a. 0S feet and the Mexican
peaks are considerably higher, but she
proposes to find out. She will be under
the rejection of both the United
States and Mexican authorities so that
she does not fear attacks from the To-
cal natives. Miss Peck will use mer-
curial barometer to determine the eX-
act height of the peaks, instead OF d
aneroid barometer, although compari-
sons will be made between the two

deuce girl will be watched with much

Keep Politics Out.

[ have long recognized the HERALD
as a wide-a-wake, go-a-head paper, and
wish to thank you in person for the iu-
terest you are taking in the petition
being circulated requesting the Dla-
mond Match Co., and others, to place
the sulphur On the other end of the
match. The manufacturers certainly
do not use matches themselves, or they
would have discovered long ago, as we
have, that the sulphur NEVER WAS on
the right end.
How often do we strike (at) a match
only to break it because of this awful
mistake? How often. oh, how often,
have we torn our best pants by using
the wrong end of the match, causin g
our wives much unnecessary toll, be-
cause of the thOughtleSsnesS of the
match manufacturers? Many and many
are the men who have been disapp )int-
ed of their evening smoke, after hard
days work, by breaking their last
match, in attempting to strike the
wrong end. leaving only a small frag-
ment. which can not be lighted with
out risk of great personal injury. [ say
many a man has been churched, be-
cause of these same miShapS.

believe that if a strong petition is
presented in the proper light to all
match manufacturers, proving clearly
to them that they can make this much
needed change without any extra eX-
peuse. except substituting II ght instead
of Il left handed machine, that they
will comply with our request. and at
last we will have some comfort in strik-
ing matches that have the sulphur on

The Natural Result.

The settlements of Guadalupe and
San Iguacio down the river are in a
very bad way, according to the Revlsta
of Juarez. They have been afflicted
with scarcity OF water for the last
ten years, and things have now come to
such pass that with the successive
ruination of the local crops, restitution
has come, and this year no wheat crop
has been planted. Unless the govern
ment does something to help these I'M
fortunate people they must immigrate
to some more fertile locality or starve.
The same state of affairs obtain on
the porth bank down the river from
this city, as Captain Hughes will read
Jig testify: and it is all on account of
the diversion of the waters of the Rio
Grande in Colorado and New Mexico.
