THREE STORY BLOCK.
Local Lodge Plans to Improve Ger.
tain West Main Real Estate.

One of the local lodges has under
contemplation and a. q matter of fact
has secured an option on the lots. for
the construction Of . handsome three
story building which il the present
plans do not miscarry will be built
on Main street ON ground now ocou-
pied BY cheaper grade Of buildings.
For sAuaral raAanna Apparent to the
members this paper has been asked
not to publish the name OF the lodge
for the present. but suffice 1t tn say
that this article does not refer to the
Florence lodge of Elks. The reason
for this is given that the plans have
not been definitely arranged
The building will be three stories
in height and will have . lOO.foot
frontage. will be mp to date in every
respect. The ground floor will con-
sist OF four modern store rooms and
the second and third stories office
rooms. lodge hall and opera house.
As matter of fact one Of tho store
rooms hiss already been spoken for by
one Of the local merchants.
The building and the lets will cost
not less than $50. 600 or may be ~
much ~ $50. 900. The plans have
not vet been placed in charge Of An
architect. bot it 10 expected they will
have been drawn In from thirty to
sixty days. 1t is proposed that the
opera house will have . seating
capacity Of from 800 to 1000 people.
When the work OF construction begins
it will be necessary to tear down or
remove the buildings that now stand
on the ground. 1t has always been
the desire Of the owner of the land 10
have . three-stcry building erected on
it and it seems now that his wish is
about to be realized.
The committee appointed by this
lodge some time ago to work up the
deal held q meeting last night and
discussed the progress Of the project.
II may not be more than few days
until the public can be given more
particulars.

 '"The National Baptist Convention IS composed of representatives of the col ored Baptists throughout the United States of America. It's object. as set forth in the constitution, is to do mis- sion work in the United States or America, in Africa and elsewhere abroad, to foster the cause of educa- tion, and to promote the publication and circulation of religious literature.
 'The work of the convention Is car ried on by the Foreign Mission, Educa- tional Home Mission. Baptist Young Peoples Union and Publishing Boards. respectively, the members of which are elected annually.
 The annual meetings of the conven- ton are very largely attended, thou sands of delegates coming from all parts of the country to listen to the progress of the denomination as re- ported by these several boards. and to get new inspiration for the work be- fore them
 "The reports of the Boards showed great progress during the past year. The statistician's report showed that we have 18,020 Baptist churches, 16,S41 ordained Baptist ministers. valuation of church property aggregating $17,- 178,755 and a membership of 2,200,000 souls.
 "The Home Mission Board does work | in this country, 1t keeps missionaries | in the field all the time and gives thousands of Bibles to those who | would otherwise be without them. '@rhe Publishing Board is located at Nashville, Tenn. The growth of this Board Is marvellous. It owns, In the name of the convention. three lots. up- | on which are four brick buildings. In these buildings are to be found the most modern machines for printing and publishing business. It publishes books and Sunday School periodicals and supplies more than i1,000 Sunday Schools with literature. The receipts | of the Board for the year ending Au- gust S1. 1905. were $s9,76S
 "Rev. L. G. Jordan. D. D.. Secretary of Foreign Missions, said: Every dol lar we owed missionaries abroad ending August 31. 1905, has been paid This was the quarto. centennial of the Foreign Mission Board. and much interest centered around this report which showed much progress in Foreign Missions. The de- nomination not only supports mission aries In Africa, but it has established and supports Baptist Academy in the foreign field for the education of the natives"
 The pastor sought here to impress his congregation with the great ides and spirit of foreign missions. He is an earnest. educated speaker and his
 remarks were given close attention.
