IN THEIR NEW HOUSE.
rRACE-sTREET PEOPLE TO MOVE
IN NEXT SUNDAY.
4 HANDSOME HOUSE OF WORSHIP.
Only the Lower Floor to se Used for
the Prescnt-Grcat Courage ana
Energy Displayed by the COngre-
CATION.

The congregation Of the Grace-Street
Baptist church win to-day hold their last
Sunday service in the Tabernacle. Next
Sunday they meet for the first time in the
basement OF their handsome new house
OF worship.
1t has been little more than two years
since fire destroyed the elegant new
house that had been erected at the corner
OF Grace and Foushee. And since that
time, barring the first month, when the
synagogue and DR.. Kerr's church We're
placed at their disposal for Sunday ser
yice and Sunday school, they have been
comfortably housed in The temporary
structure on upper Grace street, where
they have been enabled 20 hold their
congregation and Sunday school well to-
gether
. Next Sunday morning the doors of the
handsome new edifce will be opened,
ana the congregation will return, mid
ooy and gratitude, TO its old home. And
this means an amount Of heroic devo-
ton, sacrifice, courage, and faith seldom
rivaIlod, If ever surpassed by band of
people before. While they stood and
saw the flames devouring the building
that was the pride of their hearts, that
they had striven mid sacrifices to rear,
even while its towers were topping, they
ware thinking of the one that was "a
rise in les ashes. DR.. Hatcher said in
his sermon last Sunday that he was heart
sick and almost ready TO die when the
Chief Of the Fire Department told him
he could not save the house, and as he

WHAT THE ARCHITECT SAYS.
The building is of granite, with brown

York-has this to say OF 1t: Inc new

bine good acoustics and substantial con-
struction. For the former 1t mas peen
often proven that curved boundary walls
and a proper ceiling treatment IS UNI
formly successful while Tor the latter no
construction exceeds in strength the wall
built in circular form.
"Followlng these as guiding principles,
