It was the intention to commence work about this time on a new Catholic church in this town, owing to the demands made on the old structure by the increasing size of the congregation. The plan has been necessarily nec-essarily altered, however, and a delay in work is announced. Father Edmonds Ed-monds of the local Catholic parish stated to his congregation on Sunday that he had unofficial information that a survey had been made by the Cripple Creek Railroad company across a corner cor-ner of the property on which the new-church new-church was to have been built. He referred to the probable futility of anv attempt to hold services if railroad operations op-erations were to be conducted in such close proximity to the church building, and suggested that if the road proposed laying tracks as reported it would be more expedient to secure another site for the new church... The matter, will rest pending the return from the-' east of certain railroad officials and information infor-mation as to the railroad's plans will I largely shape further, action. |
