ENJOINED FROM
!. TRYING CHURCH MEMBERS
Feeling Among Members Is
Alleged to Have Caused Of
ficer at Services
fRv Asaocinted Press. }

TAMPA, Fla, March 2S.-Trouble
growing out of sensational charges and
counter-charges between members or the
congregation of the First congregational
church of Tampa came to a head yes
terday when Pastor Robert Lee Kirk
land was served with two injunctions'
staying him from trying three promi-
nent members for stirring up strife IN
the church.
One of the injunctions- was filed by
Mrs. Hugh c. MacFarlane, wife of one
of the wealthiest citizens of Tampa, and
the other by w. F. Barritt a member OF
the city council. Both injunctions are
predieated on charges that DR.. kirkland
has no right to try the members and
that he has chosen only his friends OH
the trial committee, all of whom are
prejudiced against the movants.
So strong has the feeling among the
members of the congregation been that
special police officer was detailed to
attend the church Sunday morning and
preserve order. This followed the Sc
rious chastisement of one member of
the committee named by DR.. kirkland
to try the members by the husband of
Mrs. MacFarlane.
The summoning of members for trial
before the church committee followed
the publication of affidavits that Dr.
Kirkland had found an affinity" in a
young woman in his flock, and that he
had written her particularly fervid let
tiers, declaring that he had prayed for
years for just such a woman as she is.
He has wife.

years ago and it is precisely the same
thing that is attacking the plants here

lists association.

Steamship companies declare that COM
paratively few Easter lilies will be i'm
ported this year, probably not more than
10000 in ALL Last season the total sales
by New York wholesalers reached s.
co., 900 blossoms.
NEW YORK, March 2S.-Fhere is to be
famine in Easter lilies this year. The
crop according to wholesale florists, here,
is only about one-third as large as last
season. This applies to the production
on American soil. The quantity of flow

Easter trade is small compared to the
quantity used.

stabbed horses which disturb the

yesterday afternoon.
The plaintiff in the case alleged
that the defendants who operate a
dray business maintained barn
about go feet from her residence.
She stated that offensive odors came
from it and that the 16 head of
horses stabbed in it disturbed her
slumbers and asked the circuit court
to declare it a nuisance which it
did. An appeal was taken by the de-
PENDANTS to the supreme court and
now that tribunal affirms the decree
OF the lower court. The court in sub
