THE OLDEST CHURCH
HONOR CLAIMED FOR BUILDING
AT SANTA FE, nj. M.
Foundation Laid in 1541, But Struc-
ture Has Undergone Many Changes
Since Then-Has Historic Old
Bell in Belfry.

Kansas City.-The ancient Santa Fe
church at Santa Fe, y NJ, is the old
est house of worship in the United
states, according to the claim of the
Christian Brothers, the Catholic order
which has charge of the edifice.
Brother David, who looks after the
spiritual welfare of the parish, says
the records Of the Christian Brothers
show that the foundation Of the Santa
Es church was laid in 1541 The next
sBdest church building in this country
is the mission of San Xavier. situated
near Tucson, Ariz., in a PapagO In
dian settlement. There is a dispute
as to whether the San Xavier mission
was started in l547, as is claimed by
some, or at a later time. Coronado,
who is said to have laid the corner
stone OF the mission building, was in
Spain in 1547, and il is believed by
those who have Investigated the facts
bearing on the subject that the Santa
Te church is 10 or 10 years older than
the San Xavier mission building.
The construction Of the Santa Fe ed
lice was slow work The more expert
artisans hau to be brought all the
way from Spain. Indians were forced
20 perform much Of the hard manual
labor. such as making the adobe bricks
or blocks which were used in the walls
and carrying them to the places where
they were laid. The walls OF the
building are from three to five feet
thick That the sun-dried clay blocks

Topeka Physicians Sued for Damages
by Abilene Woman.

Abilene, Dec &C w Hurd and
J. V. Humphrey have filed petition
for Mrs. Alice Wing-field in suit for
$4,000 damages in the Geary county
district court against Drs. McClintock
and William F. Bowen of Topeka, and
L. r. King of Junction City. The suit
is for damages fod the death of Jesse
3. Wingfield of Junction City which
Mrs. Wingfeld and the other plaintiffs
say was caused by malpractice in
surgery in an effort to remove set
of false teeth from the throat of Jesse
Wingfield which were never there.
Jesse Wingfield lived in eastern
Geary for the past 40 years, and was
one of the well known farmers of the
county. On the morning of Oct. 3
he aWoke and said he had swallowed
his false teeth. DIR. King was called,
and after an examination brought Mr.
Wingfield to the city. where he was
treated for a few hours. He grew
worse and was taken to Topeka,
where he was placed in the hospital
and operated upon by Drs McClin-
took, Bowen and King. Mr. Wingfield
died after the operation and was bur-
led in the cemetery in eastern Geary.
The doctors at first thought the
teeth were in his throat and cut a
hole in the side of the throat to find
them. Then they decided they were
in his stomach and cut him open. for
general investigation. No teeth
were found and after the operations
he died. The doctors said he died of
kidney trouble.

EGGS FOUR CENTS EACH.
Only Hope for Consumers Is That
Hens VIII Get Busy.

Chicago. Dec. 9.-Hens this year have
utterly failed to supply the market pro-
perly, according to local merchants.
Consequently eggs have advanced to a
wholesale price of SO cents a dozen for
the strictly fresh.' BY the time these
eggs reach the householder they have
reached a price of at least 40 cents a
dozen and in some cases four cents a
piece. Less fresh eggs are quoted at
27 cents by the wholesale dealer and
the consumer is charged from 80 cents
upward.
The only hope for reduction of price
within the next 80 days, according to
the Chicago dealers, is a revival of the
laying industry among hens of Texas,
Oklahoma, Kansas and other south
western states.

working men employed by the roads
demand higher wages than ever be-
fore. It is of interest to the railway
companies not to interfere with the
movement of traffic in season, and but
for this 1 believe rates would have
been advanced earlier. Adverse con-
ditions affect the railroads about as
soon as they do anyone, but we feel
that the shippers can better stand an
increase at this time than the railroads
can afford to lose on freight business.
1t is rumored, however, that the
present plans for a rate increase may
be changed within few weeks, owing
to the chances for removing the duties
on different imports.

NEW ORLEANS FIRE
fIREMEN AT ANNUAL PICNIC
WHEN BLAZE STARTED.
Three Blocks Destroyed With Loss
Reaching $1,000, o0o-Fire Was Spec
tacular-Two Liquor Warehouses
Among Buildings Destroyed-BarreI
After Barrel Exploded.

New Orleans, Aug. 31.-Fire that
broke out in the center of the COM
mercial district Sunday afternoon
swept over portions of three blocks,
destroying a large number of whole
sale houses, manufacturing plants and
stores Originating at Beinville and
Chartres streets, the flames worked
their way north as far as Cont street
and west to Royal street, with a loss
of between $1,000,000 and s2,000,OOO
before the flames were finally subdued.
At the time the alarm was turned in,
shortly before o'clock, the New Or
leans firemen were in the midst of
park and the engines and patrols re-
sponded with a mere handful of men.
1t was fully an hour before the de-
partment was in a position to make
anything like a successful fight against
the fire, and even then the handicap
against it was added to by an made
quate supply of water.
The fire was one of the most spec
tacular that has occurred In New Or
leans during recent years.
Two warehouses filled with wines
and liquors were among the buildings
destroyed. Barrels of whisky and
brandy exploded with thunderous
roars which could be heard for blocks
and which shook the walls of adjoin-
ing buildings and endangered the lives
of firemen engaged in fighting the
flames 1t was not until several hours
had elapsed that the fire was gotten
under control, and even then it con
| tinued to burn well into the night.
