It has been sail In defenue of the thou
sands of Americans who go to Europe with
out having visited the scenic beauties of
their own land that they find on the con
tinent novelllet In f manners and customs
tfiat offer a diversion not equaled by any
ijfAha sights of the big republic. Thla la
a lame excuse, however, for In that won
derful land of promise, tho southwest a
section which blda fair to become one of
Miss Columbia'! richest possessions there
ore number of nooka, and one In partic
ular, which rivals anything abroad In the
charm of Ha alien atmosphere and the
unique characteristics of Ita architecture.
Added to all thla la the fact that It Is pos
sessed of the greatest historic Interest for
very citizen of the United States.
The fascinating old city of Bnnta Fe,
New Mexico, not only enjoys the distinction I
of being the oldest town and the oldest
capital of the American continent, but It
la unquestionably the quaintest and most
picturesque settlement under the Stars and
Stripes. In the cemuiits over which Its
Interesting history has extended the Villa
Real de Santa Fo de San Francisco de As
stelc, to give Its full Spanish name, has
been under three flags, each ruling' power
having left Its Impress without obliterating
the Influences of the others. In short, no
other city of this hemisphere, not even St.
Augustine or New Orleans, so' links the
past and present the old era and the new,
lit American civilisation.
Santa Fe Is away from the main beaten
paths of transcontinental travel. However,
since the journey hither entails no sacri
fice of the comforts which the twentieth
century traveler la accustomed tq the
Isolation Is perhaps fortunate. Inasmuch as
It undoubtedly helps to preserve the price
less heritage of antiquity which ia one of
the moat valuable possessions of this city
of memories. Leaving the main line of the
Santa Fe railroad at the hamlet of Laniy,
the traveler pursues the final stage of his
Journey In a train that slowly makes Its
way up an eighteen-mile branch road. The
scenic splendors of this hour's ride prepare
the visitor for almost any glories beyond.
Santa Ks U Illah.
The present-day territorial capital of New
Mexico la situated In the middle of a high
plain rimmed with mountain peaks, the
altitude being more than 7.000 feet above
the sea, and, as the tourist climbs up on to
what appears to be In very truth the roof
Of the world, there lies spread out on
either hand a panorama of far-reaching
plains guarded by a close cordon of blue
mountafna that Is simply inspiring In Its
sublime beauty. If the globe-trotter be
fortunate enough to make this pilgrimage
at sunrise, when the picture Is touched
with every warm tint from pink crimson,
or at eventide, when the day Is departing
In a final burst of purple and gold, he need
not hope that nature holds for him any
thing further In apectacular color effects.
Santa Fa has a greater array of "show
places" than any other community of Its
six In the world. Probably the most In
teresting of these Is the famous church
of San Miguel, the "cradle of Christianity
on .the American continent." This historic
rJjte of worship was built In the year
but was partially destroyed In the
Indian revolution (against the Spaniards)
in 1S80. It was reoccupled by the con
querors In 163. and was completely re
stored In 1710. Among the contents ot the
buildings are an ancient copper bell. In
which the date 1350 Is cast, and several
valuable old religious paintings pierced
with arrow holes grim reminders of the
days when the settlement was attacked by
hostile Indians.
Oldest House in Vnlted States,
Almost In the shadows of ths church
stands an adobe structure, which Is claimed
to be the "oldest house In tho United
States." A considerable portion of this
quaint dwelling remains as It has been for
centuries, and there seems no reason to
doubt that It la the most ancient building,
continuously Inhabited, In this country.
On the main road, entering the- city from
the south, stands the ruins of the old
Spanish fortifications, and within a radius
of a few miles are a number of old mis
sion churches monuments of the pioneers

older than the eldest of the similar ruins
In California, and are Infinitely better
state of preservation. Among these old
landmarks Is the Rosarto chapel, erected
'n pious gratitude by Diego de Vargas,
when ha In the year Wi, vanqnlshed the
rebellious Indians and captured the little
city of the holy faith from which his
countrymen hsd been repulsed for a doten
l'S r.
At the side of the plaza or central square
of Santa Fe stands the palace. This Is an
adobe structure built In 159. and. from a
political historical standpoint Is the most
Important building In the ancient city. For
more than years It was the home and
office of the Spanish, Mexican and Ameri
can governors. Here In the seventeenth
century the holy Inquisition Jield Its func
tions, and In this building," hundreds of
years later. General Lew Wallace, while
serving as governor, wrote his novel, "lien
Hur." In the different eras the rulers who
established the seat of authority In the
old palace were designated, respectively,
viceroy, captain general, political chief, de
partment commander or governor, and the
territory over which they held sway was
known successively as a kingdom, prov
ince, department and territory.
The older portions of Santa F are typi
cally Mexican. With amiat llttta ailnha
houses etrung Irregulsrly along narrow, j
winding streets, and even In what Is
known as the "new town" on the other
side of the little river the baked mud
structures In the same unconventional
architectural lines are Interspersed with
the massive cathedral, modern business
blocks and other creations of present day
American enterprise. Half the population
of the city Is Mexican, and the women go
about with their heads swathed In the In
variable black fringed shawls. Frowsy
burros amble along with packs of fire
wood or garden truck aa large as them
selves, and Indians from the neighboring
pueblos offer the stranger pottery of their
own manufacture. The visitor needs but a
Spanish knight In armor clanking along
the street to complete the picture.
Taking Life Easy.
A large portion of Santa F takes Ufa
very easily. As Is to be expected In a lo
cality that Is nearer the heavens than the
highest mountain peaks east of the Mis
sissippi river, there Is a fine, bracing tonic
air, but Its Influence appears to be lost on
many of the Inhabitants. The sun shines
here during at least 840 days out ot every
year, and manifestly the native delights
to lounge and drink In Its warmth. More
over, a simple scheme of existence that re
quires little to eat and little to wear encour- j
ages inactivity In this city of repose. How- !
ever, the Invading Yankee has brought all J
ine creature comrorts for those of his kind.
Altogether Santa Fe Is a most charming
place to spend a week, a month, a year,
or the remainder of your life, and a rap
Idly Increasing number of people from
other sections of the eountry have made
this discovery. Many have come In search
of health, but the New Mexican capital has
also become the Mecca of many In quest of
the picturesque or of an Ideal climate. For

In Court.
PITTSBURG, Oct. 19.-Attorney A. N.
Anderson filed In the federal court an
amended bill In the light being- waged here
against the high price of foodstuffs and
the alleged discrimination against certain
dealers by the various produce associa
tions throughout the country.
The new bill Is much larger In Its scop
than that filed recently by W. H. Arbour
against tho Pittsburg Produce association.
By the newblll all the persons who were
formerly mentioned aa having been placed
on the alleged black list of the trade asso
ciation have been made complainants on
the case, and many of the largest fruit
growers of the country, together with all
the railroads leading Into Pittsburg, are
defendants.
Among tho concerns named as defendants
are the National Produce Distributing com
pany. California Fruit Growers' exchange,
the International Apple Shippers' associa
tion, the Elgin Hoard of Trade and John
Pitt, the Pittsburg agent.
In the latter part of the bill there are
several pages which contain photographlo
copies of the advertisements of some ot
the defendants named, in which the claim
Is made that they "own or control" the en
tire output of a certain class of products.
An answer tn the amended bill will be re
quired to be filed within thirty days.
ANTHRACITE WILL BE AMPLE
Hard Coal la rientlfnl sss at Stav
tloaary Price far tat
Winter.
The anthracite coal supply for Omaha la
normal up-to-date and consumers need
have no fear of a shortage or of an ad
vance In the price. Thla la the statement
of Omaha coal dealers.
"The price of anthracite coal to dealers
reached the maximum on Beptember 1."
said Charles K. Coutant of the firm of
Coutant A Buulrea. "The agreement
stipulates a arsle of prices, which Is at
a minimum In April and advances then
10 cents each month until Beptember I. It
remains atationary until April, when It
drops 60 cents."
There wss a threatening advance In the
price of coal to 111, which menaced during
the summer, the dealers pointing out that
when the wholesale price reached the
maximum there would be not sufficient ef
a margin of profit at $10.50. But the price
Is now considered fixed for the winter
at 110 M.

CRIME'S UNIQUE DtVOTtt'f
Strange Case of a Woman Raffle i Ap
prehended in Chicago.
PUEE CUSSED NESS THE CAUSE
A Woman of Means, Wife nnd M.tkrr,
Leaves Home nnd rinnares Into
Crime for the Kxclte
snent of II.
Criminal annals of Chicago have been
enriched by the amazing operations of a
woman "Radios," who Is now In jail, sur
rendered by her bondsmen and forsaken
by her people. A woman of social at
tainments and wife of a reputed million
aire of Milwaukee, she quit her home In
the Cream City and plunged Into a
saturnalia of robberies, burglaries and plot
tings with the dcnltens of the under
world In Chicago.
Unable to longer withstand the over
powering consciousness of her guilt, Mrs.
Kvaline Caine Romadka, wife of Charles J.
Romad.a, millionaire trunk manufacturer
and clubman of Milwaukee, confessed to
having robbed six of Chicago's fashionable
realdenc i The tale she unfolded to the
police was unique among criminal annals
and It Is believed that the Investigation
which has been started will bring Into un
favorable light many men and women ft
prominence.
Her eyes flashing through tears, the mil
lionaire wonan burglar told of her desire
for excitement, which had been first fanned
when she was lifted from the humble posi
tion of a school teacher to the wife of a
man whose family la reckoned among the
beet In Wisconsin. Even such exhilaration
as can be afforded by unlimited income and
the whirl ot excitement tinally palled upon
her, and It was then, according to her won
derful story, that she answered an adver
tisement and became a servant girl, so
that she might gamble with her own free
dom as the odds against the possession of
a iiO sealskin cloak. '
Fearing that her Identity might become
known in the city where she held sway tn
elite society, she went to Chicago. Here
unknown she practiced the wiles of tier will
and gloried In the eternal excitement of
the burglar and the prowling pttrts which
she played alternately with that of the
denizen of cafes.
Living In meager quarters, she was a
woman burglar and mixed with the under
world. Living In the best hostelries of tho
city she mixed with clubmen, society
women, and was l whirled about the streets
In automobiles and carriages. This Jekyll
Hyde existence she told of unfalteringly.
But there was a third factor In her com
posite disposition. She was a mother.
When tired by the vigilance required as
the burglar and wearied of wine, and sup
pers she sought refuge, peace and comfort
at the side of her baby girl.
The burden of her confession was de
livered with dramatic force. Telling of
her operations as burglar of extraordinary
cunning, her eyes would half close, her
small hands gripped the arms of her chair,
and her whole being bespoke the caution
and daring of the tiger. When telling of
her revelries she leaned back In her chair
half laughingly and half sardonically. In
speaking of her child, her ayes filled with
tears and her every gesture was that of
tenderness.
"Yes, I am a thief," she said. "I don't
know Just why. I had everything I wanted.
Even after I left home I had 150 every
week, which my husband sent on; but I
stole.
"I first conceived tho Idea I saw how
easy t was when I was at my husband's
house- In Milwaukee, I was washing my
hands and I left my rings on the wash
stand. When I went out of the house I
remembered about them and wondered If
the servant would steal them. Steal,
steal, steal.' The word kept on running
through my head. I had everything I
wanted, but there was a new kind of ex
citement. "When I returned the rings were where
I left them.
"It struck me that the servant, who had
been In the washroom to straighten It,
was foolish to be so honest.
"Several days later I saw an advertise
ment In a Milwaukee paper. It held out a
position aa a rn,a- 1 wnt to tne hou'
that of a Mrs. Cady, 188 Eighteenth street,
nnrf secured the position. I was there only
a few hours when I saw a good chance to
steal a sealskin cloak. I took It and left
the house."
"The woman Is possessed of devils, ac
cording to the police department physicians,
Drs. Guslafson and Leavltt. They say so
In all seriousness. Dr. Leavltt Is a well
known practitioner and connected with
numerous medical societies and Chicago
hospitals. Both physiclana do not hesitate
to express the belief that the woman la
under the Influence of "disembodied
spirits."
This woman when herself was all a
woman should be." said Dr. Gustafson.
"When another spirit overpowered her
personality she was what the police de
clare her to be." Dr. Leavltt, whom Dr.
Oust af son consulted, said In his letter of
""'have found enough to Justify your bo
llef and mine that It Is another case of
obsession, as It is commonly called-'pos-sesslon.1
as I am disposed to call It. By
the orthodox medical specialist I suppose
It would be regarded as a case of demen
tia. The term obsession, as used by the
latter, signifies a mere delusion, no evil
spirit being recognised by him as actually
existing. But to certain of us who have
returned to the more archaic diagnosis It
Is exposed to mean what the term posses
sion better expresses. I really believe that
modern scientific phyehlcal research has
gone far enovh to Justify the assumption
of such a state in many cases heretofore
c'aesod under various heads, but more par
tlc's'lv under that of dementia.
" -I don't know what was the matter with
me. The devil was In me.' says this woman
'Tou can do nothing for me. No one can.
There's something bad in me I can't con
trol.' "Even medical men who believe most 1m
rllcttly In a future existence are not will
ing to admit the possibility of a disem
bodied spirit taklrg possession of the body
of another. Christian people are put Into
the anomalous position f believing most
emphatically In the Divinity' of Jesus
Christ, and yet confess that His conception
of the alleged demon-possessed people
whom He cured, and with whose evil
spirits He was said to converse was utterly
wrong.
"I formerly trained In the same company
and believed In the orthodox medical trans
lation of symptoms like those manifested
by this poor Mrs. Romadka, but have come
to take a different view. In doing so I
have not departed from a rational and
scientific Una of reasoning.
"The ncc"ed Is amenable to psychic
treatment. She ought not to be punished,
but ought to be placed under the care of
a good psycho-therapeutist for cure."
Mrs. Romadka's mother, shocked by the
daughter's crimes. s reported dying and
her husband is critically ill from the aame
cause.

The W. C. T. lT. Convention.
The Nebraska Women's Christian Tom
perence union con plcted one of the most
successful conventions in Its history last
week at Lincoln. In point of attendance
of work accomplished and of Interest
generally the meeting was exceptional. The
presence of two national officers. Mrs.
Stevens and Mlsa Gordon, contributed
much serving as an inspiration to si!
present. The next meeting will be held a
Hastings. Much disappointment Is felt by
muny of the Omaha women that the con
vention failed to accept their liivlta'lo"
to the next meeting. Temperance Interest
has been sadly lacking In Omaha until
recently and for several years past the
local union has had difficulty In bringing
out any kind of an audience for the
speakers they have brought here even
those of national reputation. In view of
this many of the local women felt that
holding the state convention In Omaha
would help to revive Interest In temperence
work especially as the Commercial club
had co-operated with them In seconding
their Invitation.
In addition to the representatives at the
natloual convention to be held In Nash
ville next month, already announced the
following women were elected as delegates
