TWO CENTURIES OLD.
a Celebration Planned For a Church
In Wexford, r. /,

In Wexford, r. |.
A celebration to commemorate the
Rwo hundredth anniversary Of the
erection of the old Narragansett church
20 WEXFORD, r. L, the oldest edihce in
New England devoted to the Protes-
tant Episcopal worship, is being plan
ned for the coming summer and will
be the central attraction of old home
week.
A committee has been appointed to
arrange for this celebration, Of which
9he present rector of the church, Rev.
Frederick Bradford Cole, is chairman.
The old church stands upon a short
lane just of the main street Of old
WEXFORD and is surrounded by many
marks Of the colonial days. 1t is still
well preserved, and save for the loss Of
the tall tower which once gave it an
imposing aspect it is but little changed
either outside or in.
The entrance is in the center on the
side, now facing the lane on which it
fronts, and directly opposite stands the
pulpit, somewhat changed from its
original appearance. The center por-
ton Of the church is occupied by long
pews with high backs, while on either
side are square, boxlike pews, with
seats on three sides, which would ae-
commodate a whole family.
A gallery extends around three sides
Of the church, and in the early days
the preacher, standing in his lofty pull
pit, reached by narrow stairs, stood
nearly even with the floor Of this gal
lery.
In those days, no means for heating
the church being provided, each family
had to provide its own means Of keep
ing warm during the bleak wintry
days, and some now living who can re-
call their attendance upon services at
this ancient church even half a CEN
tury ago relate amusing experiences OF
the family heater"
Much has been written Of the early
history of this church. Some have
claimed that in 1900, when the edifce,
then nearly 100 years old, was moved
to WEXFORD, it was stolen and carted
away in the night intact with many
oxen.
At the time of the removal a stee-
pie was added, and other improve
ments were made. For nearly half q
century it continued in active use.
The old tower was blown down In
1869. Later the building was repair.

Why a salute of the lips, ordinarily
known as a kiss, should be given such
prominence in the literature and
drama of the world, both Biblical and
historical, cannot be solved by recourse
to any written authority, yet during all
these years since the beginning Of time
this peculiar salutation does not ap'
pear to have lost in value, nor is there
any immediate prospect of its so do
ing. What the playwright. the novelist
and the poet would do without this peg
upon which to hang a plot it would be
difficult to say, and this applies es.
pecially to the playwrights, for dozens
of familiar dramatic productions, sev
eral of which have graced the New
York stage this season, have found
their greatest factor the wheel upon
which the machinery of the scenes
runs and the plot depends, 10 a kiss
that Of a man and a woman. In
France only a half century ago a code
Of regulations by which the theaters OF
that country were governed provided
that any actor kissing an actress with
out her consent, regardless Of what the
play might be. would be subject to 3
fine of many francs.-Harriet Quimb.

DOCTORS RISK
LIVES, SAVE
FIREMEN
Fifteen Overcome by Gas
in Big New York Candy
Factory Blaze.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE novel
sight of u score of physicians inperil-
ing their own lives to rescue firefnen
from a burning building was presented
in East Eighteenth street last night.
when one of the six buildings of the
Huyler Candy Mandatory was filed
with deadly gases generated in some
way by a fire which started among a
pile of paper boxes. Fifteen firefighters
we're overcome, and OF these three are
in a critical condition. The damage by
fire was comparatively small.
The fire broke out on the tenth floor,
and the first firemen TO reach the spot
dropped senseless. The building quick
ly filled With smoke, and at first 1t was
believed that the tiremen had been suf-
focated by smoke. This theory WAS up
set upon the arrival of a corps oc
emergency physicians, who recognized
the presence of an obnoxious gas. Tho
firemen succumbed SO rapidly that their
mates could not remove all and then
the physicians took hold.
When other egress was not found,
they stumbled down the many fights
of stairs half carrying, half dragging
the senseless men. Several Of the doc
tors We're, themselves, overcome. and.
In turn, were rescued by others.
One physician, who found an elevator
man. who, because of "the rules, re-
fused TO operate an available elevator,
Immediately raped the punctilious en-
ployee over the head, and with suchl
good effect that the lift was soon
carrying injured men to the street.
When the fire started fifty employees
were in the building, but all escaped
Several priests also braved the gas and
smoke. and. going to the eighth and
ninth floors, administered the last rites
to Hremen who appeared to be dying.
