Church Built in a pay.

A church, not a stone or stick of which was standing at sunrise the other morning, was worshiped in the same evening, at Spartansburg, s. C., by a great congregation that filled the building and overfiowed into the street. It had been announced by the members of a local Methodist church that they would erect building in one day, the church to be known as ElBethel. There were those who doubted, but when more than 200 workmen, well organized, gathered at the scene one recent morning, 1t be- came apparent that the undertaking would be accomplished. It is esti- mated that 5000 persons visited the building during the day. Moving-pic- ture machines played upon the crowdR and upon the building at every stage of its erection. In the evening the building stood completed, painted, pa pered, carpeted and furnished through out.

 The obstacle encountered by ex- banding commerce in this instance is the person of John F. Walsh and his little hardware store, located midway between North Canal street and the Chicago river, on the south side of West Lake street.

Tom BIoodhounds Are Eaters

ordinary beef, or something better
 When Halbert first came into pos session of the dogs the rest of the es- tate of the one-time owner of the show was intact, and he even could afford to buy portFhouse for the animals if they insisted on having it. Halbert hadn't had charge of the estate long, however, when the dead owners fath- CT, J. c. Chunn, filed claim for the personal effects of his son. These personal effects consisted of a passen- ger coach and scenery and other para phernalia necessary to the show.
 Halbert fought the giving up of the passenger coach with the idea that if the worst came to the worst he could house the hounds in it and ship them from place to place that they might ''board around" on their relatives. He lost the suit, however, and found him self the mortified possessor of the dogs, which, after the manner of their kind, lost no time in signifying they would be pleased to sit down to a good meal.
 So far they have cost him more than $100, and none of them has in- dicated he is ready to get old and die or quit eating just because the novelty has worn of.

 About this time, according to Mel bouff, Robert Bronsman took a hand in the fray. This made things easier for Melbouff for Bronsman was not a woman. The battle ragged merrily.
 In the meantime neighbors, hearing the barks of "Snoozlums," the shot, the screams of the woman, had turned in riot calls for the police.
 Leaving "Snoozlums" where he lay in the street the police took the man and woman in the patrol wagon and to central station, where charges of disorderly conduct were placed against both.
