THE NV METRoroETrAS METHODIST Frs
CORAL TkMPLE-Rer. DR.. DeHaaS, Pastor
MANY OF our citizens will be gratified TO learn
that such Is the success and Christian enthu-
siasm On behalf of this noble enterprise that
the energetic pastor, Rev. DIR. DeHaas, with
the official brethren thereof. has resolved 20
commence the erection of the church immedl-
ately. L twill be remembered that the massive
and beautiful foundation was laid some twelve
years since, AT the corner of y and g streets
IL was. indeed. fortunate that the structure
was delayed, for then house Of worship which
would have cost S6j.OO0 or $4,000 would have
occupied the ground, whereas now an edifice
corresponding with the spirit of the times and
the ''hundred years of Methsdsm,, an orna-
m Mt to our great and growing metropolis, will
be reared. at an outlay Of about sl2OoOO.
This new edifce will be 1I2 feet on Ak street,
entirely Of stone, and purely Gothic in style.
The sfeepie will be on the corner of Az and G.
streets, and $50 feet IN height. The yestibule
VIII be entered by spacious door way in front,
door on AZ street, and one at the west corner.
The hrst floor will be occupied on the east side
with an infants department, 80 by 80 feet beau
ufully arranged. In the centre. as You enter
from the ves-ibule, a hall 10 by 30 fee: in
length. On the west side of this hall are two
class-rooms, each Is by 25 feet. with sliding
doors, so that on special occasions the two
rooms may form one. The lecture-room will
be Il by 65 feet, at the south end, pulpit in the
center; on the southeast corner, pastors study.
II by %; on the southwest corner, the library,
