Last Sunday the pastor being absent Rev. W. L. Grlssom. of the M. E.

The handsome little structure was com pleted Saturday, and that night two or more prominent (?) young men, citi zens of this city and disgraces to their honored family names, deliberately wrecked it In order to gratify their drunken destre for deviltry. Such an act, and this is not the first of the kind ever committed here, not only brings disgrace upon those who stoop to en gage In It, but it gives the city a name for lawlessness that it ought not to suf fer. It Is to be hoped there will be no more such occurrences.
