The first pastor under the Carmelite fathers was'Father Cyrill who held the parish until 1866, when Father Heiman succeeded him. Father Heiman was pastor until 1872. During that time he built the present church which is one of the finest churches in the city. The new building was built under his charge and dedicated to the service of the Almighty God on the 18th day of June, 1871. The Right Rev.

Bishop of Leavenworth performed the ceremony of consecration. About twenty of the reverend clergy were present and participated in the dedication.

Of thee tests, which are to be made in actual, practical operation of trains, report will be made to congress, and the information will be used as the baais of legislation to increase the safety of travel by requiring proper safety devices and methods to be used. When the money was made available the commission appointed under it organized and sot to work to examine all the patents and devices known. They were found by the hundred.

The great majority were eliminated as impracticable or too expensive. When the list had been narrowed down to a small number, arrangemeats were made to equip sections of track in different parts of the country with various devices, and give a thorough test. Within a short time the vrst test will be in progress, out in California. The Santa Fe railroad has tendered the use of a division of its track to try a wonderful scheme of signaling which is beiieved to possess great possibilities. This driee includes a block signal system of the improved kind, with some extras.

There is a device by which ths train dispatcher at the end of the division can show signals along the route, tltiMii to please himself. Further than that, he can turn a switch and put into operation an automatic stop, such as is used on the operation of the subway trains in New York. Or, if preferred, he can employ another signal, and communicate direct with the engineer in the locomotive cab. This device, of course, employs the scheme of electrical control. It is believed to be safe from any outside interference, and secure from any interruption on account of weather or other physical conditions.

It does not cost an amount which renders it prohibitive. It is expected that the most important results will be secured from it, for it not only enables the dispatcher to keep in constant and instant communication with the engineer in his cab, but enables him to stop the train without even communicating with the engineer. The system is to be thoroughly tried out. Another, less startling in purpose and scope, is to be installed on the Buffalo, Rochester fittsburg road, and given a test and a third probably will be put in on a division of the Chicago, Burlington Quincy out of Chicago, though the arrangements for this installation have not yet been perfected. Congress has arranged, through an item in the sundry civil bill, to continue over the next year the appropriation heretofore made, and to broaden the powers under which these tests are being made.

It has proven exceedingly popular in other cities such as St. Joseph and Topeka and, being a home manufactured product, should prove so here.

The women of Leavenworth should support a home industry by calling for it at their grocer's and demanding that they receive it. Do not accept substitutes. The 10-cent package contains more for the money than any other etarch, and the starch has many features which recommend it not causing the irons to stick to the clothes, goes further than other kinds, gives a more lasting polish, makes garments look like newj readily dissolves, requires no cooking; saves time and labor and is the only perfumed starch on the market.
