Lutherans-The Church Veses-, 20
Buy the Lot on Orange street and
VIII Build There-Rev. mr.. MARK
wick Unanimously Asked 20 Re-
main-He Asks TO be Released.
A problem which has agitated st. John
Street II. z. church people for some weeks
has been settled. The edifce was sold
yesterday to the Swedish Lutherans, who
paid 81 900 down to bind the bargain.
The money was paid yesterday afternoon
to James lothian, as the agent of the
trustees of st. John street church. The
transaction took place at the Office of J.
Gardner Clark. The money was paid by
Carl Brant, as the representative of the
Swedish Lutherans. The pastor of the
latter, Rev. Mr.. jacobson, was also pres
emit. The price for the church finally
agreed upon is $21 600. The balance of
the money-s20, 000-is to be paid by May
l next. At a meeting of the officers
of the church last night re-
port was made of the above. and
the church authorities voted to buy the
very eligible lot (of which they have for
some time had the refusaD on Orange
street, corner of Edwards. The cost of the
lot is about $1,000. The lot is 100 feet
front on Orange street and 200 feet deep.
1t is a part of the estate of the late Pier
pont B. Foster. The church will erect a
church edifice upon it which will be in
consonance with this fine portion of the
city and an ornament as well. A parson-
age will also be erected on the lot. Wheth-
er the whole or part of the work will be
done next year is matter for discussion
and decision at future meetings.
Out of the 200 members of the ST. John
street church fully $50 will support the
church in its new location. A large part
of them reside in that fast growing section
of the city. After months of earnest con-
sideration this change of base has at last
been decided upon as best and the church
authorities are sanguine that a most wise
decision has been reached and that the re-
suit will eventually be one of the strongest
and most prosperous churches of the
city. The members who do go with the
church to its new location part with it
with regret and make the change only
because in the church's coming new loca-
ton their homes will be quite distant
from it.
AT this meeting also the official board
unanimously voted to call Mr. Markwick
for another year. They expressed the
klndest feeling and appreciation for him,
and 1t is only with the greatest reluctance
that they would have him here. Mr..
Markwick, in consequence of other mat
tiers, asked to be released by next Nav
first from their church, and spoke in the
most affectionate terms of what their past
relations had been and hoped their future
might be prosperous and blessed. Mr..
Markwick has under consideration a call
from the Ansonia Congregational church
and two or three from Methodist church
es. He has not as yet decided what his
course will be-

who opposed the appointment of re-

trust would be terminated Counselor
John b. Gleason, who represented some of
the certificate holders. then made strong
argument In favor of the appointment of a
receive. The trust had certain property in
It's hands which should be turned over to
receiver. 1t was not a matter of discretion
with the court. He asked that this prop-
erty be taken out of the hands of the per
sons who had no title to it. Lawyer j. L.

still on. ''-O

Struck by a whtr,wtud

PROVIDENCE. R. l., Oct. 30.-Betwsen
the hours of and 10 o'clock last night a
whirlwind from the northwest struck Mar
ragansett bay off Cowesset. 1t was ac-
companied with a heavy rain and for
some minutes made things hustle within its
scope. Schooner Maggie Cummings, Cap
tain Murch, which arrived at this port
a few days ago from New York with a
cargo of corn, had discharged, and was
sailing down the bay under full canvas.
At o'clock p. m, off Cowesset, in about
fifteen feet of water, the whirlwind struck
the schooner. She turned side up. The
vessel was light and could not sink. The
men narrowly escaped drowning. The
damage to the vessel will be small, if any
is sustained.
