BALT1MORE--The Wilson Memo
rial church enterprise has not made a
great deal OF progress. The PROPOSE
ton liz made by Mrs. jackson to give
$4,000 toward a $4,000 plant.

by the Board OF Church Extension. the
$s,466.34 of the Calvary fund, about
$4,000 subscription secured by the To-
cal committee, and the Trinity prop

The proposition has been made by
the brethren in Baltimore, who are
interested in the proposition. to Dor
row sufficient funds in addition to the
amount promised by the Board OF
Church Extension and that secured In
Baltimore on subscription, to build a
chapel; but this involves large debt,
and have hesitated to consent to 1t
in the absence of instruction from the
Board.

terprise finally fall. doubtless nice
profit can be realized on the lot: but
the enterprise should not fail. 1t is
necessary to the future of our church
