OLD NEGRO CHURCH
SCENE OF CONFLICT
ORGAN OF the coTored Church Burn
ed Once During Some Sort
Of Alteration.

The old colored church at
Seventh and Concert streets.
which is being RACED, was built in the
late seventies or the early eighties.
according to local man who sold
the hardware for the building and who
recalled the builder of the old edi-
fee this afternoon. The church was
built by Reverend Johnson.
The old church was the scene OF a
number of exciting incidents. Along
in 1885 or 1886 there was feud Of
some sort on between two factions in
the church, or outside factions. The
result of this feud was the carrying
out of the church. its organ and burn
ing the instrument in the rear lot.
The deacons and elders of the old
edifice started gumshoe campaign
to discover the miscreants, but never
succeeded so the story is told.
In later years, just before the old
church was actually given up. the
building was the scene of another
strife between pastor and people this
time. The Rev. F. A. Venerable was
the pastor, and some exciting times
were passed at some of the meetings

No Guns for Sale

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Comraission
agents it was learned today have for
several days been trying to place
orders with local gun dealers for 1oo.-
600 rifles and 50,O00.o0O rounds of
ammunition. They refused TO state
for whom they were placing the order.
SO far as IS known they were unsuc.
cessful. Local gun dealers say At
would be impossible to fill the orders
now. Almost the entire stock of
rifles on hand in the United States
was sold to Mexicans when the EN-.
barge on arms to that country was
lifted by the president.
