MOVED CHURCH FORTY MILES
Without Breaking Window Pane or

arv Task


cult and Extraordin-
ary Task.
Without breaking window pane or
1oosing a joint, Mr.. j. E. Tandy has just
completed this difficult and extraordinary
task
The first of this year the board of
trustees OF the Methodist Episcopal
church at Peck, decided to have a large
church building located four miles west
and three quarters Of a mile north of
Andale which belonged to the southwest
Kansas conference of the NJ. E. church,
moved to Peck. a contract was made
with Mr. J. +. Tandy, the house mover
of this city, located at 325 Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Tandy moved the church intact. The
distance is forty-two miles and in fifteen
days he completed the contract, but the
actual time consumed to move the build
ing the 42 miles was seven days. The
high spire was not removed and all win
dows and doors and church furniture
was left in place. When this work was
finished close inspection by the board
of trustees failed to find a loosened Joint
or broken window pane, which is an
and was only made possible by new
patent truck which is Mr. Tandys own
invention.
The motive power was three traction
engines. no horses being used. Mr.. Tandy
was assisted by a competent and careful
crew of men who deserve share of the
credit, as does also Mrs. Moore who made
the round trip with the crew preparing
food for them. While crossing the country
farmers would see this moving church
and hitch up team and drive for sew
eral miles to see the strange sight and
learn what it meant. The novelty of
the thing made it an interesting trip
and the complete success makes a new
record in house moving In Kansas over
country roads.
Experienced house movers say that it
could not have been done with any other
truck except Mr.. Tandys patent truck.
In another column will be found a state
ment to the public made by the board
of trustees.

folly itw as once deemed. Several years
have now elapsed since a prominent Amer
lean coal company delivered its first ton
of coal at that famous English mart,
and every year since then has added to
the supremacy of the United States as
the first coal-producing country of the
world. Graat Britain, so long the chief
coal source of the world, takes second
place in the roster of nations In 1902. the
United States exceeded It's former rival
by no less than 5000 900 short tons. Even

Britain's production amounted to 25i.3i6,-

pared with the three leaders. the United
States. Great Britain, and Germany.
The report Of Mr.. Edward w Parker
of the Geological Survey on the produc-
tion of coal in 1s02 which is now in press,
contains a statement Of the production
of each country for each year for which
the figures are obtainable since 1865 At
the beginning of that period the United
States held third place among the coal
producing with an output but
little more than One-fOurth that OF Great
Britain. and about 10 per cent less than
thai of Germany. Twelve years later.
in 1880, the production of the United
States had increased until il amounted TO
enarly one-hslf OF Great Britain. and eX-
ceeded that Of Germany by nearly 20 per
cent. Al the close of the next decade
the production Of the United States had
increased to such an extent that Great
Rritains output was only Ia times as
much as our. which was in turn. about
81 per cent more than Germanys. In
1899 the production OF coal in the United
States exceeded that Of Great Britain for
the first time in our history. the tonnage

Prof Harrison said: NO form of proceed
ure for the organization of new states is
prescribed by the Constitution or by any
law of congress. Each case has been
dealt with as it presented itself. In some
cases congress has taken the initiative by
the passage of enabling acts; in others the
movement has originated with the people
OF the proposed state, and congress has
b Inappropriate acts accepted and ratified
the constitution and state government
proposed. Twenty-Five new states have
been added to the original thirteen. In the
cases of Vermont, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Maine. Michigan, Arkansas. Florida. To-
wa, California, and oregon there were
no enabling acts In the case of Nevada
a constitution was formed without any
enabling act. but was respected by the peo-
pie. The second constitution was formed
under an enabling act. IN the case of
Wisconsin the constitution framed under
the enabling act was rejected by the
people, ard subsequently a new conven-
ton was called which framed the cousti-
tuition under which the state was finally

DURING A DENSE FOG
Two Vessels Went Ashore
Near Long Beach.
SEVERAL LIVES ARE LOST
Work of Life Savers Was Diff
cult and Dangerous.

New York, Feb. 22-Five men were
drowned in the wreck of the schooner
Benjamin c. Cromwell off Bell Port, L. l.,
today, only two of the crew of seven
being rescued from the breakers when
they were washed ashore on pieces of
wreckage. The schooner was broken up
by the heavy waves.
During a dense fog two vessels went
ashore today, one near Bell Port, /. l.,
and the other near Long Beach. The
first was the Benjamin c. Cromwell, a
Portland, Me, schooner, from Charleston.
S. c., for halifax, with pine. The name
of the craft ashore at Long Beach is yet
unknown.
The mate of the Benjamin Cromwell and
four men were drowned others reached
shore, floating on a piece of wreckage
Attempt after attempt of the life-savers
to reach the wreck was unsuccessful and
close watch was kept for any OF the
crew who might come ashore.
The three-masted schooner which went
ashore near Long Beach, y. J., began to
break up almost Immediately, unler the
blows of the heavy breakers. The fog
and the heavy seas made the work of the
Hfe-savers extremely difficult but re
peated attempts were made to rescue the
crew of the doomed schooner. Attempts
to launch the life-boat proved unsuccess-
full. Time after time the life-savers
dashed into the waves with their boats,
but each time they were hurled back to
the beach. The guns were trained on
the wreck just as the fog closed in more
thickly hiding the vessel from view.
However. the life-savers, having the di-
rectfon, shot the first Inc at the vesseh
Several other lines were discharged with
in the next half hour, bat what effect 1t
had has not been learned. Several pieces
Of wreckage fioated ashore, which lead to
the fear that the vessel was breaking up.
