There are more than one-quarter as
many churches in this city as there are
saloons. If all of these were thrown
open for the poor every day, where they
might partake of food that would be
supplied to them at a. minimum figure.
how long do you suppose the saloons
would continue to exist? OF their own
free will they would disband, for their
occupation would be gone.
when the churches are utilized as
coffee houses and inns then will they
redeem themselves. Men do not love
liquor so much as they love kindness.
Men do not love the amber stream that
flows so much as they love the warm
ness and cheer and sociability of the sa-
loon.

TEE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
Its Buildings, Missions, Institutions
and Ministry.

The Presbyterian church in North Car
DINA rs represented by three distinct
churches the Southern PRESBYTERIAN. tho
Northern Presbyterian and the Associate
Presbyterian The Northern Presbyterian
church has recently organized the Presby-
terry of the French Broad, with Asheville
as the centre and embracing several
counties. The greater part Of the work
done thus far by this church in North
Carolina is educational. The Normal
and Collegiate Institute at Asheville il
educating hundreds of young women and
sending them out as teachers in the pub
lie schools and also in several church
schools that have been established in the
mountain districts.
The Associate Reformed Church has
a good membership i'll Mecklenburg, Ire
dell and CASTOR counties, with strong
churches in Charlotte, Gastonia. States
vile and other places. They have a
fine college fer both sexes at Due West.
s. G.
The Southern Presbyterian Church is
overwhelmingly the largest Of these three
organizations and is the one mainly to
be considered in sketch Of the Presby-
terrain Church in North Carolina
This church was never in a more pros
porous condition, nor has it ever had
brighter prospect for future growth aud
influence than it has today.
CHURCH BUILDINGS.
An unprecedented era of church build
III, lasting for ten years, has continued
through the present year. The handsome
and comnodious ediice in the Capital
City is nearing completion. A beautiful
new church in Dilworth, suburb or
Charlotte, was dedicated last month Ii
rs built of pressed brick, trimmed with
stone and cost $4,000 The Graham
church completed a new building of much
the same character this year and so did
the Mooresville church. The First
church, Mt Charlotte, has completed its
equipment with the purchase of a $1,000
organ, making up the sum of $50. 600 that
has been spent in this city alone on
church edifices in the last seven years.
the First and Second churches i1sia. both
magnificent specimens of Gnu .eh architec-
ture. The First Church, at Greensboro,
