Young man and Was succeeded
by the late Bishop Jenuel Wells.
The era which brought 81.
Luke's church was a notable
period in Tscomss history.
Working for Bslfour 4 Guthrie,
Alexander Baltic helped bring a
trsinload Of wheat up from the
Columbia river to be shipped on
a sailing vessel from Tacoma TO
Liverpool. That was the first
cargo of wheat shipped out of
Tacoma.
The First Baptist church was
organized and the first edifice
built on the site now occupied
by the big downtown church at
9th and Market.
Tacoma NOW "Old Tacoma'D
and New Tacoma were united
as the City of Tacoma.
The first telephone exchange
was Installed. The first tele-
phones were In w. p. Bonney's
drug store and the residence Of
DIR. Wing.
Fannie Paddock NOV Tacoma
GeneraD hospital was dedicated
as a memorial to the wife of
Bishop John Paddock, whose
death was caused by the I'M
usual hardships in this North
west mission field.
Theodore Hosmer, who be-
lieved that churches were a good
business investment, was elect
ed first mayor of Tacoma.
The new st. Luke's church,
housed in beautiful stone edi-
flee at the corner of Sixth and
Broadway, prospered. The work
started by Mr.. Bonnell was car
ried on by Bishop Wells and
soon the building would not ac-
commodate the people. That
problem was met by holding five
services every Sunday, the first
at 7:30 a. m. and the last at
7:30 p. m. Even then it was
necessary to put chairs in the
aisles for some of the services.
Besides serving the downtown
area, st. Luke's became the
mother church of the Episco-
palian denomination in Tacoma.
So many of the members lived
ION the hill'' that il was decided
to build a chapel for them. Men
of the church cut a trail through
the timber to what is now about
the corner of No. I'd and X SITS.
The little chapel became Christ
Episcopal church.
Others of the st. Luke COM
municants lived out Sixth ave-
nue. way, and the men of the
former church helped build a
chapel and Sunday school that
became st. Andrews church.
Another chapel was built at
So. 14th and I SITS, and a Sun
day school organized. 1t is now
Holy Communion.
Episcopalians out in the VAL
ley had no church. Bishop Wells
frequently drove to Puyallup for
service, and out of that came
st. Andrews church.
So, in restoring historic st.
Luke's, the Rev. Arthur Bell and
those associated with him in
that enterprise are establishing
a monument that expresses the
hopes and the ideals of the gen.
Grafton which hewed Tacoma out
Of the forests and built the
churches and schools that made
this city good place in which
to live and do business.

Former State Trooper Also Found Guilty of Con.

Putnam, Conn, June 5. (UP)-- Former State Police Radio Dis- patcher George R. Martin went to prison today for four to six years as one of three conspirators to rob the Cargill Trust Company May l2.
 The others, City Alderman and Police Commissioner Ralph O. Brearley, was sentenced to three to five years, and Walter Krzemien, Hartford, for two to four years. They pleaded guilty to the charges.
 Martin. convicted by superior court jury shortly before midnight last night, allegedly was to have re- ceiyed s2,000 for diverting state police prowl cars from the city dur ing and after the robbery.
 The robbery, however, was rus. trated when police were informed the trio was looking for an expert welder to help them break into the bank vault. A state policeman posed as a welder and led Krzemien into A tran as he drove his automobile into an aileyway beside the bank, where torches and tools had been placed for the break.
 Brearley and Martin were taken into custody shortly afterwards.
 The latter two, in addition to the attemped robbery charge, were ac- cused of ohaining money under false pretenses by obtaining loans through falsified conditional bills of sale negotiated through Brearley's hard- ware stora.
