SPANISH MISSIONS IN TEXAS

Remarkable Ambition of Presumably
Unframed Builders.
There are in Texas the remains OF
five missions. located in and around
the old town of San Antonio de Bexar
one Of the claimants to primogeniture
among the cities Of our land, says Olaf
z. Cervin in the Architectural Record
The names of these are: Del Alamo

Q710. 1871; San Jose de Aguayo Q720)
1925; San Juan de Capistrano Q731

Q716), 173L The dates within the
brackets are of the founding.
Little, indeed. but the churches re.
main. These being Of stone and well
built have pretty successfully with
stood time, wars and relic hunters
They are remarkable for elaborate
carving and sculpture, few of the 9th
ers being comparable with them in this
respect. At San Juan there were once
five full figures and also small cherubs
but vandalism has destroyed or re-
moved most of them.
The ornamental carving, confined in
new Spain as in old to the doorways
and windows. is in Spanish rocco OF
the most unrestrained type, but moi
without elegance and charm. A bap-
tistery window from San Jose is fair
ly overrun with convolutions and in.
volutions.
The Alamo, San Jose and La Concep
cion each had two low towers f1anking
the entrance. Three of the six still
remain. A peal of bells once chimed
merrily in the upper story. The other
two missions had no bell towers. but
the front walls were carried up and
the bells hung in two stories of arches
This had been done long before in the
old Cathedral of st. Augustine, Fla
Indeed, the practice Of hanging bells in
arches IL still older, recurring often
enough in Spain. and seen even in the
work of the Moors, as in several fine
Moorish towns of Zaragossa.
The architectural ambition of these
presumably unframed builders is re-
markable. There is the Conception

tersection Of the cross. Strong but
tresses receive the thrust of the roof
At San Jose. though the church-itsel1
is a simple oblong, there is an interest

low domes roofing it.

General Use OF a Deadly Drug

General Use OF a Deadly Drug.
The United States are buying 10000
ounces of cocaine a year, at about $3
an ounce. OF this only very small
proportion is used legitimately. Some
States have forbidden its promiscuous
sale, but the laws have not been en-
forced. 1t robs it's victim of his men-
tai faculties and destroys his moral re-

markable for hanging by its tail like

the West and of much general interest,
including word for forestry from ex-
President Cleveland, four striking color
pages, eleven stories besides turther
chapters of Jack London's 'The Sea-
Wof," and various other features that
promise much pleasure and profit.
The July issue will be special fc-
tion number, but will have also paper
on ''The New West Point" with i'm
pressing drawings from the architects
plans, and two or three articles touch
ing interests in the Far East. Andre
Castaigne's pictures of the worlds fair,
