JOINT CHARITY MEETING.
Potato Plan to he Consldered-Inter-
estin9 Letter From Mayor Pingfee.

Potato Plan to BE Consldered-Inter-
esting Letter From Mayor Pingree.
The Detroit scheme of relieving the poor
by assisting them to earn their own liv-
ing in the cultivation of vacant city and
suburban land and raising thereon potatoes
or other crops of vegetables, which are
always in demand and command remuner-
ative prices. will be considered in its local
aspect at a joint meeting, to be held at
the board Of trade rooms this afternoon
at 4 o'clock, of the charity committee of
the board of trade and corresponding sub
committees from the central relief commit
tee and the associated charities. 1t is
expected that some definite plan will be
adopted at the conference by which the
work of relief will be commenced at an
early day.
Mr.. John B. Wight received today a let
ter from Mayor H. s. Pingree of Detroit in
reply to communication inquiring how
the potato plan of helping the poor was
carried on in the northwest.
Replying to your letter of April 20"
writes the mayor, Il would say that am
glad to know that the information I sent
you was of assistance
Relative to blank forms, I would state
tFat the season was so late last year
when the cultivation matter was under
taken that We had to do away with many
prelminaries which no doubt would have
been useful, and no blank forms were pre-
pared. The committee will meet today
MAY ~ to organize and systematic the
work for this year, and If they prepare any
blanks I shall take pleasure in forward
iEg you samples
Continuing, Mayor Pingree adds this in
teresting suggestion:
Believing that it will interest you, 1
wish to add that am a shoe manufacturer
In Detroit. For the past ten years, more
or less, shoe manufacturers of Boston,
New Haven, Lynn and other New England
cities have been removing their factories
from the cities into the country villages
largely for the following reasons:
Il. That they were unable to give steady
employment to all Of their mechanics and
workmen.
2. Competition being SO great it brought
wages SO low that a shoemaker could bare
ly make a living the year round.
20. By the removal Of these factories
into country villages 1t gave the manu-
facturers an opportunity to employ farm
ers' boys in their factories, SO they were
not entirely dependent on what they could
earn as shoemakers, for, when the fac
tories closed, they returned to tilling the
soil.
IF large cities" concluded Mayor Pin
gree, would give employees Of factories.
&c, chance to earn part Of their living
by cultivating vacant city land 1t would
materially assist manufacturers to keep
their factories in the city,
Mayor Pingree closed by wishing the
undertaking in this city much success.

ABOUT THE PASTOR.
HillsdaIe A. NJ. E. Church Objects to
n Chanre.

Hillsdnle A. NJ. E. Church objects to
Change.
When Rev. W. c. Gowens, the pastor
elect Of Hillsdale A. M. E. Church, arrived
at that edifice yesterday morning for the
purpose of holding his initial service there
he found the doors of the church locked
against him, so. being unable to enter the
building, he conducted service outside
Most of the usual congregation were con-
spicuous by their absence, but quite a
crowd, large portion of which were chill
dren, gathered around the steps, and to
them Mr.. Gowens made an address, and
also prayed and sang. No collection was
taken, but some of those present offered
the preacher donation of money, which
he accepted.
At the conclusion of the exercises sew
eral of the prominent members of the
church informed Mr.. Gowens that 1t was
the unanimous intention of the member
ship to reject him as their pastor for the
ensuing conference year. This was not on
account of any objection to him personally
but because they had asked for, and had
they said. been promised by Bishop Gaines
during the recent session of the conference
at Baltimore. that Rev. F. NJ. rOvelton. their
pastor up to the time the conference as
sembled, should be returned to them
This was the well understood arrange
ment. they said. up to an hour before the
time when the appointments were read out
Prior to this, but during the same day,
Bishop Gaines had, they claimed, assured
a delegate sent by the church to ask for
Mr.. Ovelton's return for another year, that
their request would be granted by him. At
the last moment however, it is alleged,
representations were made to the bishop
which caused him to change his mind and
appoint Rev. w. C. Gowens to Hilsdale
and Mr.. Ovelton to Fruitland, a small
church in the lower part of Maryland
The trustees of the church, who, until a
mortgage on the building is paid, have, it
is claimed, sole control of the property
have determined If Bishop Gaines does not
reconsider his action in the matter and
restore Mr.. Ovelton to the Hillsdale Church
that the building shall be closed indefi-
nitely.
Mr.. Gowens appeared in front of the
church again at night and had brief SER
vice. during which he announced that he
would have a meeting in the church to-
morrow night
In conversation after the meeting Mr..
Gowens said he would today or tomorrow
have a thorough investigation made, in
order to ascertain whether or not the
church has been decided to the conference,
and until this has been ascertained he
could not determine what his course would

ADVANTAGES OF TOTAL ABSTINENCE

Rev. Father Powers and Mr.. E. j..
Redmond Make Strong Arguments.
There was a large crowd present last
night at the meeting of the Father Ma
thew Total Abstinence Society at Carroll
Institute, and close attention was paid to
the scholarly address delivered by Rev.
Charles J. Powers, C. S. p, Of the Catholic
University. Father Powers, in a clear and
lucid manner, pointed out the numerous
individual and community benefits to be
derived from the practice of total absti-
hence, and called especial attention to the
vigorous attitude of the Catholic church
against the liquor traffic and its desire that
none of its members should engage in the
business. Mr.. E. j. Redmond also delivered
an earnest and characteristic address. The
musical portion of the evening was con-
tributed by Miss Blanche Wood, Mr.. John
Heating, Nine. Esputa-Daly and Miss
Jennie Wilkinson.

A Big Factory.

The great demand in this country for Jo-
