ANCIENT CHURCH IN DESERT

New Mexico, which has recently be-
come one OF the sister states in the
Union, can boast structures that sur
pass in age any other in the United
States with the exception Of few
in ST. Augustine, Fla. Santa FEN.
NJ, was the second settlement In the
United States Jealous Spanish priests
first pushed their way into this part
of the world which was then unknown
to Europeans. Their object was to
convert the Indians. The first struc-
lures they built were churches and
many of these stand today as monu-
ments of the early priests who set
them UP among the Indians and there
preached the gospel. One of the most
Interesting of these early churches is
located on the edge of Burrow Flat
IN the Sacramento National forest in
New Mexico. This is a solitary re-
gion, but sparsely inhabited Here
and there is to be seen the adobe
house of Mexican and the little less
primitive rock cuts of the Pueblo In
dfans These Indians are devoutly
religious and have been saying mass
es at such little churches as that at
Burrow Flats for the past four hun
dred years.

REMARKABLE CHAIN LETTER

A chain letter series evolved by the
seventeen graduates of the Central
Illinois college at Eureka on COM
mencement day in 1894 is still run
ming. All of the graduates are still
living. and annually they write each
other letter.
]. The key letter, written and signed
by all the graduates. is sent the
rounds each year, carrying with 1t
seventeen other letters. With each
recurring completion of the circuit
each graduate takes out the letter
that he wrote the year preceding and
substitutes another, and then starts
the seventeen on the rounds again.
The key letter has so far travelled 300,-
600 miles, and will go on as long as
two of the graduates survive. When
but one is left, the key letter will re-
main in his possession.

Trees Heart is Dead.

Olympia, Wash.-The locally ia
nous tree which stands between the
Carlton hotel and the Olympic Water
companys building is undergoing
treatment at the hands of an expert,
In order that its life may be preserved.
The tree is big maple and was
planted in 1884 by Ed Free, just after
fire destroyed the Carlton hotel.
It was recently found that the
heart of the tree was dead. The ex-
pert has been engaged in cutting out
the dead portion of the heart and the
dead limbs and it is hoped by this
means to save the life of the tree.

SWAPS HIS WIFE. FOR HORSE


Members of the Jacket colony, poor
whites descended from a Frenchman
who settled at Lakeville, Mass, before
the Revolution, are indignant over the
action of the state police in preventing
the exchange of the wife of one Of the
leading Jackets for horse. The Jack
OTIS would rather barter than eat. A
patriarch had INDUCED his propensity
TT swapping until he had nothing left
but his clothing and his wife. In ex.
change for a horse he gave his wife
tc his brother. The horse was wosth
i've dollars. Twelve hours later the
patriarch snapped the horse for an
other horse His brother took the
woman 20 Brooklyn, and his efforts to
swap her for anything of equal value
attracted the attention of the police.
They made the patriarch take his wife
back, but the brother protested that
the exchange was made in good faith.

The child slaves are sent home at the

well known, but a blacklist is kept

INVENTION OF LITHoGRAPHY

Senefelder, a Bavarian playwright,
seeking a means OF duplicating
sketches cheaply, experimental with a
porous stone which lay at hand. He
drew upon it with a greasy ink, then
moistened the stone with water, and
then dabbed greasy ink all over it. The
water kept the ink from adhering to
any part of the stone except where he
had first drawn. Putting the stone
into press with a sheet of paper, he
obtained a reproduction of his drawing.
Thus was TYPOGRAPHY invented. Ink
ing rollers quickly replaced his clumsy
dabber, and of late aluminium is
used in place of stone.

BRAVERY STATE OF MIND

The Norsemen never feared death.
They were as brave on land as on the
sea- It was their belief that brave
warriors at death would be taken to
the land of Valhalla. where they might

believed that every night wounds re-
ceived during the day would heal, and
they would be ready for fresh adven
lures in the morning.
