Local Man To Sell
Lots Where Miami
Blaze Took Place

II was learned today that a
Key Wester, Rev. MelroSe Avery,
minister of the Presbyterian
Church, is the owner of the lots
in Miami on which occurred a
spectacular 100000 fire on the
night of January IL when the
paper warehouse of j. w. Knight
Bros. went up in flames.
Rev. Avery said that no dam
age was done to the lots despite
the $4,000 loss to the building
suffered by the Knight company,
and $4,000 loss of paper. Much
of the paper was newspflnt, Rev.
Avery said.
Miami newspapers, which used
numerous pictures of the big fire,
were correct, Rev Avery said, in
attributing the fire to burglars
who set fire to the building after
failure to open a safe. 1.>.
The Key West man said that
Knight does not intend to re-
build the warehouse. The fire
greatly upset the Miamian and
he has an eye affliction which
necessitates his submitting to a
cornea operation in New York
in the near future.
Consequently, Rev. Avery IS
offering the lots for sale. They
extend 1870 by 125 feet at 1740
northwest First avenue.

Foes OF Sunday
Liquor Bill Hold
Charter Violated

Opponents of the newly enact
ed Sunday liquor bill'' met last
night at the First Baptist Church
and conferred on tactics to be
used in combating the ordi-
nance.
I'VE are all of the opinion that
the City Charter is being violat-
ed" said Rev. E. S. Doherty,
chairman of the temperance COM
mittee of the Ministerial Asso-
citation. Daniel B. Sharp, Central
Hotel owner, and chairman of,the
committee for civic improve
ment, presided.
ALBERT Carey, principal of
Poinciana School, and a member
of the original City Charter
board, informed us that it was
the intent of the charter to keep
all ordinances from going into
effect for 80 days after enact
rnent and that this is provided
by the charter" Doherty said,
"The purpose of the provision is
to allow the citizenry opposing
the ordinance to take the neccs-
sary steps to oppose it legally"
Fred Barnett, city attorney of
Lakeland, Fla, was not able to
attend the meeting, being seized
with an attack of influenza en-
route. A legal advisor is being
sought by the Ministerial Asso-
citation and its associates, Do
herty said, but he added that an
out-of town man would probably
be selected so as not to en-
barrass any local attorneys. Bar
nett, legal advisor to date, will
not be available until April.
Doherty said the group is
studying possibility of bringing
a court injunction against opera
ton of the Sunday law and of
also calling a referendum and
recall to be conducted jointly, the
latter against the three commits
sioners who voted for the bill.
