PROTEST AGAINST
ERECTION OF FLATS.
Part of Clemens Place Property
Owners Organize to Resist
Plans of Builders.

About forty Of the 201 property owners in
Clemens place met at the Cabanne Club
last night. elected officers and organized
the Clemens Place Protective Association
for the purpose Of taking action to prevent
the building OF fats in their district.
The Clemens place district runs from Belt
avenue on the east to Hamilton avenue on
the west. and from the dividing line be-
tween Gates and Cabanne avenues on the
north to Won versen and Delmar avenues
on the south. The restriction in this dis
trict which the property owners claim is
being violated by the erection Of fats, on
Gates avenue between Clara and Goodfel-
low. and on Won versep east of Clara, is
that not more than ono dwelling house
shall be erected on a e0-foot lot. No
lots in the district have frontage Of less
than 90 feet.
The residents of the district have decided
to enforce the observance Of the building
restriction. which they interpret to ex-
clude structures occupied by more than one
family. and suit has been brought against
n. p. Hynson. Charles Dixon and James
Hunter. who are interested In the erection
of the flats on Gates avenues.
The speakers at last nights meeting said
that the fats in the Clemens place district
will depreciate the value of property and
bring into the district an undesirable class
of citizens. and further averred that II the
building Of the fats Is not prevented they
will be followed by boarding houses. tene-
ments. livery stables, saloons and "other
nuisances." The attorneys present volun-
teered their services free OF charge to the
association in the conduct and prosecution
of all cases in which the association may
become interested. Articles of agreement
drawn up by Randolph Laughlin were
adopted. The following members of the
Board of Directors were elected: Charles
Swartz. l.. FA Ottofy. Edwin NJ. Read. T.

CHURCH CALLS A PASTOR.
Compton Heights Christian Wants
E. T. Mcfarland.

The Reverend z. T. Mcfarland. pastor
Of the Fourth Christian Church. has been
called. to the pastorate OF the Compton
Heights Christian Church. OF which the
Reverend s. B. Moore was pastor until he
was called to the church at Atlanta, Ga.
The OfhciaI Board of the Compton
Heights Church met last Monday night.
and Mr., Mcfarland was unanimously
chosen. The choice came as a great sur
prise to Mr.. Mcfarland, as he was not
aware that his name was being considered.
Mr.. Mcfarland has the call under favor
able consideration. and the probabilities are
he viii accept. The Fourth Church has
prosrered greatly under his ministry. which
has been less than two years, and in that
time rs members have been received into
the church.
The church. too, has undertaken the
building OF 5000 addition, and ground has
been broken and the laying of the stone
work will begin to-day.
1t Is more than probable that the Fourth
Church people will protest strongly against
the dissolution of the pastorate, but may
consent to his release.
The Compton Heights Church is regarded
as one of the fiourishing Christian churches
of the city.
