 x Idea Given Up.

By d small majority the Central Presbyterian Church sunday voted to sell It's property at Washington and Lawrence streets and build new y5o.000 edifice in the southern end of the city, probably on South Perry street. The idea of two congrega- tions made up of the present Central congregation was abandoned. as was the north side mission idea.
 The discussion of the question dis placed the regular Sunday morning sermon and lasted for more than two hours and at times 1t became lively enough for the moderator, J. L. Dean. of Opelika, to call the meeting to or der. The fact that sixteen of the eighteen officers in the church are in favor of selling the present church building at Washington and Lawrence streets and building a new church is responsible largely for the adoption of the resolutions that provide for the change.
 The following is the text of the reso- lution voted on. -
 Be 1t resolved, by the Central Pres- byterian Church of Montgomery, Ala. in congregational meeting assembled

Although only eighty-three members of the Cehtral Church were present at the meeting Sunday. the numbers about 400- The vote resulted in forty-nine in favor of the change and thirty-four against 1t, majority of fifteen.
 A committee will be appointed dur Ing the next few weeks to select site for. the new edifice, which will cost about S50,0o0. The new site probably will be on South Y Perry street. The committee will report in about three weeks when a ballot will be taken for acceptance or rejection of the site selected by the commit tee.
 The present church building will be sold to some institution adapted to 1t. and 1t is expected that upwards of S3o.000 will be realized on the sale.
 The proposed new church will be one of the most modern and hapdsorn- est in Montgomery.

Two Trains Rosbed.

Two incoming southbound freight trains late last night were robbed by daring car thieves. Several cars on each of the trains were entered and . large amount of groceries was thrown from the train between Burnsville and the North Selma yards.
 The first freight train was robbed at Brantley Switch, six miles north of Selma. about 10 o'clock last night. As the train was pulling slowly into Selms four of the cars were broken open by the robbers.
 Shortly before 12 o'clock last night as freight train No. S1 left Burnsville, nine miles north of here for Selma. supposedly the same gang of car rob- bers broke into several of the cars. From these cars large quantity of groceries were thrown. Upon the ar rival of the trains here the robberies were reported to the railroad headquar- ters and detectives were carried to the scene on a switch engine.
 After working on the case for sev- eral hours the detectives early this morning arrested negro, Pat Chap man. who lives in the northeastern part of the city. In the home of this negro was found quantity of groce- ries believed to have been stolen from the two trains. The detectives are still working on the case in the hope of be- ing able to make other arrests.
