WHERE PADILLA DIED.
Question That Is Arousing Interest
in Kansas.

Washington. Feb. 15-Various points
in Kansas claim to be the last resting
place of Father Juan de Padilla, the
first known missionary to the Indians
in what is now the state of Kansas,
and the number seems to be increas-
ing.
1t was not long ago that at Herring
ton, Dickinson county, a small monu-
ment was erected to mark the spot
where Father de PadiHa was buried.
Other central Kansas points have dis
puted the claims Of Harrington vigor-
ously.
Bishop Hennessey of Wichita, head
of the Catholic church of Kansas was
here recently. returning from visit to
Rome. Bishop Hennessey spent several
days in Washington, and most of it at
the library of congress. He was ac-
cOmpanied by Victor Murdoch, and the
two spent many hours looking over old
maps; tracing the march of Coronado,
the Spanish explorer, through Kansas,
so long ago.
Bishop Hennessey is firm in the be-
lief that what remains of the celebra-
ted Catholic missionary, Padilla lies
buried somewhere in the vicinity of
Newton. He is not sure of the exact
spot, nor could he obtain anything
definite from the records in the big Ii
brary. But ne stated that he received
considerable encourag cement in his re-
searches.
Juan de PadiIla, it is learned from his
torical facts gathered from various
sources, accompanied CoronadO's expe-

progress, commencing with this morn
ing's session at 10 o'clock during to-
day and tomorrow, the adjournment
being taken with tn address of Rev.
John Brandt of St Louis at O'Clock
Thursday evening
The session this morning was but
lightly attended. An audience of
probably one hundred were present in
the auditorium of the Christian church
when President Coburn called the
convention to order.
On account of the late arrival of
trains a great number of the delegates
in attendance upon the convention
were unable to reach Topeka in time
for this mornings session, conse-
quently the business session scheduled
for this morning was postponed until
a more representative attendance
could be secured.
A paper contributed by w H.

the greater part of the mornings ses-
sion. A discussion followed in which

A physician puts the query: Have
you never noticed in any large res

large number of hearty. vigorous old
run from so to so years; many of
them bald and all perhaps gray. but
none of them feeble or senile?

and even the deadly brOiled lobster

The point of all this is that a Wig

FACTS ABOUT TOPEKA.
Things That People of Kansas Ought
to Know.

Secretary Anderson, of the Topeka
Commercial club, in his new roster of
members and committees, for 1905, has
issued a paragraph on Topeka" which
bristles with facts, that the majority
of the citizens of this town are not
aware of.
Under the caption of manufactures -
a sta tement is made that there are 308
manufacturing concerns in Topeka,
with an invested capital of over $4,-
O00 900.
There are 81 wholesale and jobbing
which in 1904 did a business of $17,-
600 900.
In speaking of milling centers, the de-
claration is made, that Topeka is the
second largest milling center west of
ST. Louis and Minneapolis.
Every year Secretary Anderson gets
out statement of this nature, but the
one for 1905 surpasses all previous ones.

BY an almost unanimous vote. the
house has confirmed the report of the
conference committee in relation TO

clerk. The appropriation bill carry

This is quite an important victory
for the chief clerk over the speaker.
Mr. Stubs wanted to cut the chief
clerk off with $500 in full for the
work which has usually paid about
$4,000. The chief clerk said he
would lose money in doing the work
for $500. and offered to compromise
on $1,000. The speaker fought the
compromise. but the house stood by
the chief clerk.

The moral in this tale of Caraway

of an Indiana man. And when the man

THE ROPE BROKE.
Murderer Being Hanged Fell on a
Beam and Neck Was Broken.

Bridgetown, n. J., Feb. 15.-Frank
Raisinger was hanged here today for
the murder of his wife. The rope broke
as the body rebounded and the back
of Raisinger's head struck a cross
beam of the scaffold and broke his
neck. The physicians present said
death was instantaneous. It was there
fore not necessary to raise the body
again to the scaffold.
A shudder ran through those who
were assembled to witness the hang
ing as the rope parted and Rafsinger's
body fell to the ground. Nearly every
one present turned his head from the
grewsome sight. Sheriff Dement'S said
after the hanging that he was un-
able to account for the Swapping of
the cord as it had been tested with
weight more than 100 pounds heavier
than Raisinger's body.

spent the winter of 1910 in northern
Mexico, proceeded in a northeasterly
direction through New Mexico and
Kansas in the months following April,
1541. 1t was in search of the Quivera,
the ancient and NEUROLOGICAL kingdom.
1t is generally understood that Faith
er Padilla, a Franciscan monk, was the
first religious martyr whose blood was
shed by Indians within the present Dor
ders of Kansas.
Another account of Father PadilIa
says:
After Coronado's return to the Rio
Grande, Father Padilla, one of his
faithful priests, came back to Quivera
to preach to the natives, and suffered
the death of martyr there by the In
dams for whose spiritual elevation he
was Jealous. Thus was christianity
first carried to Kansas and the first
white mans blood shed on its soil''
Reference has been made to the
fact that a monument has been
erected at Harrington to mark the spot
where it is supposed Father Padilla
met his death. One Kansas searcher
believes the place is just west of
Reckon Springs, Dickinson county.
George P. 1Torehouse of Council
Grove, that famous old historical spot
in Kansas, situated on the Santa Fe
trail, and replete with Indian lore, has
given much of his time and attention
to studying Indian and early Kansas
history. 1t is Mr.. Warehouses; firm
belief that a mound of considerable
the town of Council Grove, is where
Father Padilla met his death The
mound is capped by a rough stone
pile, which Mr.. Morehouse believes
was originally raised to mark the
place where this Spanish priest died.
In proof of it, he cites the word of
the Indians, who have passed the.
story down from generation to gen
Grafton. These are for the most part
Kaws. who once lived and had their
reservation near Council Grove.
1t may be that some time the exact
spot where Father Padilla met his
death on Kansas soil may be ascer-
tanned, but it is a fact that just at
present, there is great diversity of
opinion concerning the matter.
