Tlio North Main Avenue Baptist
church congregation took definite ac
tion lust evening on tho question of
erecting a now ehureh. The Invita
tion for those comprising the congrcga
tlon to bo present last evening at the
meeting met with a hearty response
nnd tho edifice was ciowded. The
meeting was called to order nnd the
Ilev. V. G. Welkins was chosen as
moderator. The wnys and means com
mittee, through Its secietnry, Mr.
Howies, made a report to the effect
that Wllllnm Chiippull'hnd been ftelect
ed to wait upon Michael Hannlclc, the
owner of tho vacant lot, on the coiner
of North Main avenue nnd Oak stieet,
which In generally considered the best
of nil available lots..
The lot hns n frontage of 79 feet on
North Main avenue, and 192 feet on
Oak street. The price of this piece of
propel ty Is $5,500. The matter of pur
chasing the property was laid before
the congregation for their sanction,

the deal. It Is probable that the prop
erty will be secured by this evening.

ARE TO RESUME.
The literary and Debntlng eociety of
St. Brenden council, No. 243, Young
Men's Institute, will take on a new
lease of life when it begins the regular
work after Lent. The society has done
but little along ltn intended lines for
some months past. Partly because of
the series of debates between the sev
eral councils of the Institute In the
city being carried on, and partly be
cause of the departure of their spon
sor, Rev. P. J. McNally, to a new field
of labor at Geoigetqwn, Pa.
Recently, however, the society ask
ed Rev. A. T. Broderlck, who succeed
ed Rev. P. J. McNally at St. Patrick's
ehutch, to take his place as sponsor to
the society. Father BroderlcK did so
and plans preliminary In nature were
outlined for the future work at a re
cent meeting. The debates win not,
as formerly, be the principal part of
each evening's programme, more at
tention being paid to the literary part
thereof, hereafter. The meetings will
probably be hela once a week or often
or Instead of every two weeks as hith
erto. A progressive plan of literary
study calculated to be educational In
form, will be arranged nnd carried out.
These are but the bate Ideas fiom
which the future course of the society
will be laid out, but they ate sufficient
to Indicate that some good results can
be expected. The next meeting will
probably be held sometime this week.
