Every issue Of The Four Track News makes
it easier for ticket agents and ticket sellers

see what marvellous variety of scenery and
climate our own country possesses. The
more these facts are impressed upon the aver
age person, the more certain he or she is to
have desire to travel. Therefore, The -Four.

Collins said contained large sum OF
money. He told johnson that he was
heavy drinller and was afraid that
he might die, and that if he did not
show up for the money to notify Mrs.

johnson took the package, thinking
the man was slightly demented, but
was willing to humor him.
Saturday night man claiming to
be j. w. Hearne appeared at the cent

Minnesota's Oldest Church.
The fftieth anniversary of the build
ing of the st. Peters church at Men
dota was celebrated with due ceremo-
ny. 1t is the first permanent church
erected in what is now Minnesota. Re-
plete with historic memories, it recalls
the days when Mendoza was the me-
tropolis of the Northwest, and st.
Paul the suburb. Old settlers, some
of them among the builders of the his
toric old church, were present at the
ceremonies, their faces beaming with
pride at the achievements commemo-
rated.
1t was a great day for Mendoza: The
members of the congregation gathered
from miles around. The picturesque
old village was enlivened by the
crowds which thronged about the old
church. Several of the former pastors
of the church were there. A dozen
neighboring priests assisted Mgr. Os-
ter, tbs pastor, in the celebration OF an
event which has unique significance
to the Catholics of Minnesota and par
ticularly of the region which was once
included in the parish of st. Peters.

Her house contains antique treasures

the evening when the curtains are
drawn and the lamps lighted the whole
place has beauty and individuality
that is as rare as il is charming.
Miss Adams is singularly free from
the eccentricities of genius. Her only
popularity appears to be a distaste for
